When you buy through our links, we may get a commission. Given the various devices you can today connect to an LCD, we were surprised to find a limited amount of video ports, which may inspire you to look elsewhere if you require component or S-Video connections. Its piano-black bezel gives the display a modern look, and the Webcam that's built in above the display provides easy Web conferencing.
Although we found a lot to like with the ViewSonic VXwmb, we still prefer the similarly priced Gateway FPDW for its cleaner design, sturdier base, and superior video input selection. Alternatively, while the HP W gives you two less inches of real estate, it also costs less and provides better image quality with the same native resolution.
The ViewSonic's onscreen menu is straightforward and easy to use, letting you adjust brightness, contrast, and color, as well as video input. The menu options are clearly labeled to aid navigation; there are no mysterious icons to decipher. The middle two buttons let you adjust the volume. A convenient headphone jack resides just below the menu button. The monitor's base lets you swivel the screen a full degrees, but its round shape means the display is more prone to wobble than is the Gateway LCD, with its wider and heavier oval base.
The stand offers 3 inches of height adjustment, and you can tilt the monitor forward a few degrees and back about 25 degrees--but you can't pivot the screen into a portrait position. Features The ViewSonic serves up extras such as a Webcam and integrated speakers. It's purely a PC or Mac--it works with either platform monitor, however, skipping the added video ports found on the Gateway, which include component, composite, and S-Video, yet offering the standard duo ports, VGA and DVI.
Don't buy this display for its integrated 2-watt stereo speakers, however; they are among the weakest speakers we've encountered. In addition to being underpowered like almost all monitor-integrated speakers, they also face downward, which further detracts from their output.
The speakers are downright unusable for listening to music, and really aren't much better for anything else. There's an upstream port to power the Webcam, but there's no downstream USB port to be found--a curious omission. The Webcam, however, is a feature that might sway you. It features a fairly typical 1. The Webcam software is polished, and lets you take snapshots or video and adjust camera settings to fine-tune the image.
It lacks the fun, goofy effects that you get with the Apple Phone Booth application, however. The display's top resolution of 1,x1,, however, means you just miss p output and must settle for p. Performance On our CNET Labs benchmark tests, the two displays gave results that were very close throughout--posting an identical score of 80, for example, on our DisplayMate benchmark, a very respectable showing. The score is derived from a suite of tests that measure all aspects of display quality--from sharpness, screen uniformity, color, and grayscale performance, to how well it performs with DVDs and games.
The ViewSonic posted a higher sharpness score, while the Gateway took the honors in color performance and screen uniformity. Brightness levels were statistically the same, while the ViewSonic performed better on our Contrast Ratio benchmark, displaying slightly darker blacks and brighter whites.
