With the E2260V (there is also a E2360V but is not yet in Italian shops), LG tries to give a refreshed design than the previous lines. Compared to most of the monitors on the market, this does not present the usual excess of roundness and, conversely, every part is very boxy, linear, trying to squeeze more eye environments more “cool”.
The first thing we notice when we extract from the pack is that live is beautiful than in photos. The colors are a bit ‘different. For example, we were convinced that the base and the bracket were (nearly)silver, but the base is gloss black as the frame and the bracket is transparent.
Assembly is easy and after a couple of minutes the monitor is ready to be connected to the PC.
These three connections: DVI-D, D-SUB and HDMI, plus the audio output. The HDMI cable is included, we have tested the DVI cable supplied.
The E2260V is very thin, about 1.2 cm, which become little more than double in the host connections. The only for roundness.
The base size for the size of the monitor and provides excellent stability.
Between the bracket and the frame of the monitor was placed, the LED status. The choice of design is more or less original (actually similar to the Samsung PX2370), the “leddone” but creates a problem at night.
The definition Full-HD on a 21.5-inch it seems inappropriate to anyone who spends much time in front. After a few hours is all too “small” and this can lead to fatigue.
For the reason just mentioned and inaccurate colors, do not recommend it to those who like to fiddle with the graphics software.
The response time of 5ms does not affect too many games and movies, where he starts to affect the accuracy of the colors. Also stay away from the profiles and take the path of custom settings, you can not have results comparable to other monitors in its price range.
Finally a monitor that we feel we can only advise those who have been abducted from design and use the PC for office tasks and web browsing. In all other cases you would be disappointed.
