Review : BenQ V2400W - “World’s slimmest” 24-inch widescreen LCD

Once upon a time, 22- and 24-inch LCD monitors were rare in home computing environments, but now they’re becoming commonplace as prices perpetually drop. But that doesn’t mean you can no longer own a 24-inch model that makes your neighbor’s jaw drop.

BenQ V2400W LCDBenQ’s new V2400W ($499; www.benq.com) is the “world’s slimmest” 24-inch widescreen LCD, according to the company, and it’s intended to target the “sophisticated, stylish consumer.” To be certain, this is no ordinary-looking monitor, as BenQ used the asymmetry and aerodynamic curves of the B-2 stealth bomber as the design inspiration, which is an overall effort the company calls Kinergy Design.

The V2400W is 2.44 inches at it thickest point, which BenQ claims is 21% slimmer than the next-thinnest LCD monitor. On the technical side, the monitor features a resolution of 1,920 x 1,200 pixels, 4,000:1 contrast ratio, 2ms (millisecond) response time, 160-degree viewing angle, and full 1080p HD (high-definition) support. Also included are five preset modes that help to optimize viewing with onebutton touch; these include Dynamic, Photo, Standard, Movie, and sRGB.
