Hello guys

In your opinion what the 1080p Monitor more comfortable for work/reading text.
The last 24' i tried make me cry after few minutes reading text.
for about 300$

Tanks
 
I have a 23" Samsung 2333T 1080P C-PVA panel in front of me at the moment and text is perfectly clear sitting at arms length. I'm mildly astigmatic and nearsighted too. You might find that certain panel types "seem" blurrier or sharper.

In general if this is a problem for you, stay away from heavy anti-glare coatings or highly glossy panels. Basically anything that gets between you and the glass too much can cause shadowing or blurring. For example my old HP w2408H had a glossy coating that caused perfectly sharp text to have a fringing effect at the edges.

Just because of vision and personal preference, many people have historically preferred 22" (and 21.5" class) panels due to DPI size. It's a comfortable resolution (1680x1050). And for the most part, since 24" low end/mainstream panels are vanishing; try a 25/26" class model. It's not really bigger than a 16:10 @ 24" and pretty comfortable on a large desk; plus you'll find the DPI is about the same.
 
i've recently bought Eizo S2433W (1900x1200, S-PVA) and it lacks text sharpness big time when comparing it to my old glossy NEC 20WGX2 Pro. Unfortunately, unlike Foris, S2433W doesn't have contrast enhancer. I would have bought glossy panel but there simply is not one on the market except the apple led cinema (and some TN panles).
 
Sounds silly, but did you try turning the brightness down? The default levels on most screens try to burn your eyes out.

yep, especially since a lot of monitors do this to make colors "pop." out of the box.

yes but then i lose some important Sharpness on photos. seems like a cant encounter a good relation with brightness, contrast and sharpeness.
Btw this monitor im talking about is samsung BX2450 (led)

Glad to see a thumbs up for the 2333T in this regard. Thanks.
 
Does anyone know why they even use antiglare aggressive coating? (how can one know at purchase what kind of coating it'll be, never noticed this in explenation or maybe I ignored it thinking it wasn't important)
If this is responsible for not being able to read text properly then I have the same problem ;(

I am pretty sure that all IPS panels produced by LG use the same anti-glare, within some minor manufacturer variances. ACD is the exception. Whether it's Dell, NEC, ASUS, HP, Lacie, LG, 23"-30", you should assume that the AG is the same. Speculation about lighter AG here or there shouldn't be given credence until well documented.

Some people, me included, like the AG. Even on places like [H], when you do a poll, AG tends to be preferred. No idea what the general feeling is among consumers, but until recently, IPS panels were only marketed towards professionals or prosumers, where glare wasn't really tolerable. I suspect more degrees of haze will be introduced as IPS panels broaden their market reach.

Sure, I would rather there be some magic substance that reduced glare but didn't introduce visual noise. But until then, I'm fine with the standard IPS AG.

Thanks for the refreshing explenation ;)
 
I agree but, the AG that Samsung uses is much better than that used by LG. it has a little more gloss to it and no dirty look at all. It still reduces glare just fine. I would still take LGs AG over glossy any time. The worst display I have is the glossy TN on my ASUS laptop; yuck.
 
27" 1080p monitors and 28" 1200p monitors.
I've had problems reading on a 23" 1080p, but when I moved on to the 27" didn't have any problems.
Now everything I do on the computer is a pleasure. :D
