    CNET Review

    May 12, 2006

    The Good: Inexpensive; sleek design; full-sounding built-in speakers with amplifier; extended warranty options; unmarred grayscale performance; vivid colors.

    The Bad: Low resolution for a 20-inch monitor; limited flexibility; poorly labeled control panel buttons; lacks headphone jack; volume controls buried in OSM; ghosting and blurring evident in DVD video playback and games.

    The Bottom Line: The ViewSonic VG2021m is a great basic LCD for everyday use, but be warned that it offers fewer pixels than its 20-inch competitors.

    Review Summary: In the real world however, the ViewSonic is easily fast enough for games and video, while the brightness, contrast and colour all simply look 'right'. This was borne out in our tests by great attention to detail through individual steps of greyscale chart
