Any good 21.5" VAs? I was looking at the GW2265HM in particular. Looks to be pretty good, bit of a grainy coating, but can always remove that if i wanted.

I don't really see how the frameless casing is worse though.
7.9 /10 ? Something I don't understand with reviews today is that they tend to give ever lower marks even to products like this one that's clearly better than other extremely similar products they've reviewed before.
pcmonitors kind of do the same by giving that ever 86% mark, how does that make any sense ?
In the case of that playerwares review; Is it just because it's only Full Hd ? Otherwise I don't understand, and again for playerwares Google Translation is useless.
In most cases there's no need to read monitor review text if one knows how to interpret the measurements and pictures of a monitors coating, ghosting, glow and viewing angles.
Their values are much different compared to reviews of VA monitors on TFTcentral. They measured 5 ms average GTG with AMA high. TFTcentral measured about 11 ms on similar VA monitors in this case.Playwares reviewed the BenQ GW2470H: it's awesome.
I did notice a patterning on the display but I don't know whether that is just due to the bitrate, the video encoding or even my display which is pretty appalling to be honest. Can anyone share any comment on this? It's visible on the white part of the screen, just above the dark rectangular region. Is this banding? There does seem some in the game he plays too.
Will the Philips BDM3270QP be available in the US?
It might be worth only searching for the first part of the model number and omitting the QP because I have just found another review with my first search with the shortened model number. The QP could be area/country specific.Will the Philips BDM3270QP be available in the US?
Do you mean this wavy moire effect? That is due to the camera.
Here's a fresh BDM3270QP review by sweclockers
http://www.sweclockers.com/test/21175-philips-bdm3270qp-32-tum-med-va-panel
Yes it has been available in the EU for quite a while but the price has been a bit too high for my liking at Amazon which is the only place that I am considering purchasing from, it can be purchased for £344.46@ https://www.alza.co.uk/32-philips-bdm3270qp-d2428064.htmhmm cant find any info about US release.
The 40'' Philips came to US after a couple of months but the 32 has already been available in EU since May or June.
I had not finished reading the reviews, real life got in the way. I have now and I must say that I am now very disappointed with the Philips capabilities. If what I understand from the sweclockers review is correct then it cannot handle HDMI input for 1080p sources @ 24fps let alone how it would cope with 23.976. If it does not work with my media player then there is no point in me spending extra on it, I might as well purchase a lower cost screen or 2 smaller screens 24/25". It looks like my search goes onYes sadly the Philips accepts up to 73hz but is dropping frames above 64hz, despite what the specifications say.
If the translation is correct it even drops frames at 1024x768@75hz - there is a whole section on this on page 3 of the sweclockers review.
A couple of the 1080p AMVA overclock to 72hz-78hz without frameskipping but none of the 1440p.
But concerning lower refresh rates looks like at least 24hz is a go, good for movies (no 48 or 72hz though) :
"However, you run the 2560 × 1440 pixels at 24 and 50 Hz by creating your own timing to the screen. BDM3270QP handle these frequencies without jerking."
Not unless you want PWM. The contrast is quite poor as well.HP ENVY 32 Media Display may be what you are looking for.
