Advantages: Bright and clear, digital contrast ratio makes your eyes weep with delight

Disadvantages: The screen kicks out so much light, those little buttons on the front are a little hard to see!

For £189 this is a LOT of a monitor, 22" actual 700:1 contrast ratio and the albeit useless ability to scale down the size to about a 19" 4:3 monitor.

BUT this monitor has a massive trick up its sleeve, its "digital fine contrast" is a neat little trick which dims and brightens the monitors backlight to essentially add a new dimention in colour ratio. Its bright and beats all of its Hanns-G counterparts of the same price, it IS missing an HDMI input, but to be fair without speakers HDMI doesn't really offer much of an increase over DVI (if any) and this monitor unlike a lot of products in this stingy market comes with VGA and DVI cables (which I wish dabs.com let me know about as I spent £15 buying one with it. I upgraded partially up from a 17" monitor for normal stuff and downgraded from a 32" monitor for the sdays when I felt like treating myself to an awesome gaming experience.

The Flatron W2252TQ makes using a computer feel more like a privilege than a task and if anything is a little big for the average user. As far as I'm concerned, this completed my PC, and really round the experience of windows vista and high definition gaming up to a smooth and bright coloured experience... 2ms response time doesn't hurt with gaming either! stand feels a little bit cheap and monitor cant be turned, other than that. I love this thing!
The buttons on the front are a little un intuative to use and the "FUN" button, really isn't but if thats something that you'd be upset about then I doubt you can enjoy anything other than a store which throws free computers at your skull while you have chuck norris movies beamed into your head and they computers are made of feathers.

Summary: For this price, I doubt it can be beaten, what could be better than the spec of this monster.
