The performance of the PW201 in our Displaymate tests was nothing short of stunning. The sharpness of the monitor is near perfect, with text being incredibly clear and crisp. The contrast levels were great too and its incredible sharpness made working on this LCD a very good experience. The monitor’s gray scale performance was above average and posed no surprises. The color tests was another area this LCD performed well. The colors were rich and vibrant without any bleeding. We checked this via a series of high-resolution photographs and Displaymate. The image display on both tests was easily among the best we have ever seen. Our last test was the most practical one. We tested the monitor through a variety of games and movies. Here its 8ms timing assured there was no ghosting at all. Though there are faster response monitors out there, we were surprised at the utter lack of ghosting and found this to be overall a great result. Games like Flatout 2, which support native widescreen resolution simply looked sensational. The webcam was the only thing that let down this monitor… badly. The Lifeframe software is clunky and at times would just crash while a simple action such as dragging the video window is performed. When it did work, we could never use it beyond 320x240 resolution as anything above that resolution would lead to the display lagging or the software crashing. Though the software does offer some interesting options such as portraits and motion sensing, it needs major work before it can be termed as actually usable. The built-in speakers were another let down. The sound at best can be described as hollow 'tinny noise' with no bass. The speakers are so bad, you would be better off getting a pair of headphones. |
