Product brief
Description: The Gateway FPD1775W is a 17 in, flat panel computer monitor.Compared to other flat panel monitors on the market, it is expensive at around $270.Note that this is a wide-screen (16:9 ) monitor.This unit features a 1280x720 native resolution.Weighs 6.8 lbs.
Pros: Accepts DVI input, which allows for greater signal clarity than traditional VGA.
Cons: Has only 1280x720 resolution.This is not out of line with the product's price, but is lower than the average monitor on the market today.Also, this monitor has only 500:1 contrast ratio, which is lower than some similarly priced monitors.For example, the Planar PQ1710M, a 17 in monitor at around $255, has 800:1 contrast ratio.
Suitability: Designed for those who want a spacious screen that will not hog their entire desk.The 8 ms response time of this screen makes it ideal for fast-moving games and for watching movies.
Value: In general, this monitor's features are as expected for this price.However, you would typically pay about 30% less to get a flat panel monitor with roughly the same viewable size.
Suggestions: (1) Before purchasing an LCD monitor, consider visiting your local store for a live demo to ensure that its overall image quality, color, and sharpness meets your expectation.(2) For more help in deciding if this is the right monitor for you, visit the buying guide for monitors at CNET Reviews.
