Recommend wide viewing angle 21 or 22 LCD

[KuJaX]

I have briefly read about s-ips and pva. I am looking for a 21 or 22 inch LCD monitor that has very good viewing angles. If I was lower than the LCD, nearly directly lower, that it doesn't lose all clarity.

I'm not looking for the most expensive monitor, just something that has a great value with extremely wide viewing angles, assuming with s-ips or pva technology.

The only VA 22" monitors are the Eizo S2231W and Lenovo L220x.

I have asked here a couple of times if anyone knew of an S-IPS or VA 21" monitor that are currently being manufactured, no one responded.

There are only a couple 22" LCDs with good viewing angles and 21" is not a standard size. You'll probably have to go for a either a 20" or a 24". If you go with a 20" you can choose from VA or IPS screens, but if you go with a 24" you're going to be limited to VA screens unless you want to spend near a grand.

I keep being told that there are VA and S-IPS 20" monitors, but the only example anyone pointed out is the Dell 2007wfp and what I understand is that it could be either S-IPS or VA. What are the others?

Your choices in 21" are limited; all are 1600x1200 non-widescreen:

NEC 2190UXi (S-IPS)
NEC 2190UXp (S-PVA)
NEC 2170NX (S-PVA)
ViewSonic VP2130b (S-PVA)

NEC 20WMGX2 (AS-IPS): The best 20" WS. 1920x1200. Discontinued.
NEC 2090UXi (S-IPS): 20", 1600x1200
NEC 2070NX (S-PVA): 20", 1600x1200

Wow, you're right! Here's the only other 20" LCD I could find that's currently available and not TN, but NEC stopped production of this bad boy a long time ago so it's hard to find.

NEC 20WMGX2

Here's a few 21" LCDs with good viewing angles. I didn't realize there were so many 21" screens.

Gateway FPD2185W
HP F2105
Samsung 215TW

VA and IPS screens sure are hard to come by these days.

There are several other 1600x1200 20" screens that aren't TN, but I assume he wants widescreen.

There aren't any 22" with "very good viewing angles" because they're all TNs, except for the two mentioned above: Eizo S2231W (S-PVA) and the Lenovo.

The 21" PVAs would be better, but they're not widescreen.

The 21" screens I mentioned are widescreen.

Well I have seen a 19" Samsung monitor (940t) and I would like to get a little larger. I figured since I have seen a lot of 22" monitors around the $300 range that it would be a good choice. Widescreen or non-widescreen does not matter to me.

Does anyone have a list of fairly common everyday 19" screens with wide viewing angles?

The Lenovo is completely out of stock EVERYWHERE. Really, only two 22 inch monitors that have the wide viewing angle technology?

Yep, and soon we'll probably see everyone introducing 1920x1200 22" monitor for driving Lenovo out of markets...
With TN crap!

And Lite-On factory fire has been delaying bigger shipments.
