Summary: Great Monitor
Review: I bought this a little worried about the games that I played. I can honestly say that this monitor is the most amazing monitor I have ever viewed.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent image and elegant design.
Review: I had this monitor for over a year it is extremly bright, the character are so clear I use it with Dual Monitor ATI CARD.You won't be disappointed.It is worth the price.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A pleasure to look at
Review: I had two 20" Sony Trinitrons on my computers. Finally decided to go flat panel. I did a lot of research and the numbers on this monitor were better than most --- it is brighter (250 lumins), wider viewing area (170 degrees), and a faster screen update speed (25ms). I saw it in the store and it just looked better than the others to me. Of course, it's hard to find a store that allows you to make a good comparison. Most stores don't even know enough to run LCD monitors at their correct resolution.

My main concern was how it would perform with fast action games. At first, I noticed just a slight amount of blurring (compared to CRT monitors) when the entire screen was shifting fast, but I got used to it quickly. I don't feel that it is noticable anymore. Of course there's no blurring with movies.

I'm using an analog video card (Voodoo 4) and it is working perfectly - no text ghosting or anything. When I first connected the monitor, I got no picture, then remembered that it must be refreshed between 60 and 75 Hz. I changed the video to refresh at 60 Hz and the screen was a little funny. Don't know how to describe it, but it reminded me of a CRT monitor in interlaced mode. When I changed the refresh to 75 Hz, it gave me a perfect picture.

I highly recommend this monitor (and I'm very picky). No dead pixels. I like the larger 19" size - I run it at the 1280x1024 with the default normal size fonts on XP. No more screen flicker. No more electron guns beaming radiation at your eyes.

Oh no! The backlight jusst went out and I cant see vwhat i,m typin anymoorrre. Just kidding!!!!!

Update Aug. 2004: This monitor has been on about 8 hours per day since I purchased it 2 years ago and it is still flawless. When purchasing a flatpanel monitor, be sure to look at the contrast ratio. A 500:1 contrast ratio means that white is 500 times brighter than black. A poor contrast ratio means the black pixels on the screen are partially illuminated.

Summary: Great Monitor
Review: I ordered it two days ago and, much to my surprise, it was delivered today (I used the super saver shipping, not bad: two days for free shipping). After the last 6 years with a 17" CRT, I thought I was ready to move on. I'm happy with the reclaimed desk space AND the bigger screen size.

Right out of the box, I plugged it in and started to work. However, everything was pretty blurry and low quality. After going through most of the setting of both my video adapter and the monitor itself, I realised the problem. I have an old PC set up next to my current PC and I have a cheap monitor/mouse/keyboard switch that I use so I don't have to have two of everything. This monitor did not like that switch. When I plugged it in directly to the PC, it worked like a charm.

It's clear, big, bright and beautiful. I've watched a DVD and it looked great (I don't normally do this from my computer, but I did to test out the new monitor). I don't game, so I can't say what action games will look like.

I like it and would recommend getting one if you're due for a replacement like I was.

Summary: Just got it, and so far am very happy!
Review: I picked up this monitor in store, and so far, have just been blown away. Don't let the size specification fool you -- it's 19" diagonal *viewable* size. This monitor always seems to be the brightest in the store, wherever I go, so I took the plunge, and thus far, I've been impressed. Beautiful colors, and at times too bright -- I actually turned it down a little. It was no problem switching from a CRT to this monitor.

I'm still running just in analog, as they didn't include a DVI cable (they did include an adapter, to plug into standard VGA cards). Nice price point and brilliant performance.

Summary: Another opinion
Review: I write this only because of the single star review posted recently and my thoroughly different impression of the 1920NX. I purchased my NEC-Mitsu 1920NX about two months ago to replace an old 19 inch CRT. Worked like a champ out-of-the-box with analog input from my ATI All-in-wonder 8500 DV video card, video looked good, gaming was acceptable. When my DVI cable arrived, some days later, things just got better. I have NEVER had to play with the settings (other than turn down the brightness - which is really good for an LCD) which was the complaint of the previous reviewer.

I don't want to sound gushy or anything, but to sum my feelings up, when I got an Amazon gift certificate, I bought a second 1920 NX to replace an old 21" Compaq Q-Vision monitor (nearly the exact same viewable area as the 19" NEC-Mitsu - 3/4" less in horizontal).
