Rating: Summary: Seeing is believing Review: As I stood at the counter of an automotive service shop, I was totally "blown away" by this beautiful lcd display perched in front of me......It appeared to be from the future or at least somewhere far from Oklahoma City....I couldn't take my eyes off of this monitor;......classy and sturdy looking... I didn't know about resolution, pixels, contrast, and all that stuff; however, I knew this: "It was like looking into clear liquid"....I could see every little detail of the order from any angle that I stood.(I never dreamed an invoice could be attractive-looking) ..This was the 15" model #lcd1565 on the counter but looked so much bigger...In comparison to many lcd's , it was a little pricy for a monitor with only a one year warranty, but I was totally sold!..I bought the lcd 1765 17" and it looks fantastic!!!..Watching dvd's is totally incredible...My grandson put on a dvd,"Finding Nemo", and I'll swear it seemed to put us right in the water..It looks like we'll have to get on for the office now......I produce tv commercials and I'm sure that it wouldn't hurt my business if everyone could see the T.V spots on this monitor..hmmm? Obviously, I would recommend this classy #...you'll have to see it to believe it.

Rating: Summary: Best image for a 17" monitor Review: Great contrast, great response time, super sharp image, nice style. As with all LCD monitors, you need to use the 'native' resolution for best image quality. The only thing I wish is that they'd come out with an 18 and 19" version of the same monitor (they've got 'em in Japan!).
Rating: Summary: my beautiful 17 inch NEC LCD Review: I got my MultiSync LCD-1765 about half a year ago and it is so nice. It sits on my desk, freeing up tonnes of room for my keyboard which is always nice. It is built very sturdy, which in my opinion is a good thing. It looks bigger than it really is, says most people. I play quake3 Rocket Arena on it all the time and its quite fine. It turns off and on in less than a second, which is faster than some CRTs I know. It is one of the best LCDs I have come across so far. NEC is a good brand to trust. It matches my grey logitech MX700 wireless mouse. I gave it 5 stars because I have found absolutely no fault with it.
My next plan is to get some kinda adapter to hook this up to a playstation 2 video output, tv cable, or dvd player. I dunno if having a DVI input would have made this LCD any easier to hook up but ah what the heck. I will get a Vesa wallmount for it also and mount on my wall so I can watch movies from my bed. Overall, it has done a good job so far. It still gets 5 stars for that.
The only thing that would have made this an amazing deal would be a lower price tag. Don't get me wrong this is fair value for money. But I wish I could have spent 300 on it instead of 500.
Any questions about my LCD? email is = sonicvybe@yahoo
Rating: Summary: I cannot give enough praise for this monitor Review: I have been using this monitor for aobut three months now. The picture is exceptionally bright, even, colorful, and balanced. I was concerned about the glare off the acrylic screen protector, but it turns out it is easier to avoid glare than the "naked" models (they simply diffuse the glare). It is extremely easy to clean, I wonder why other manufacturers won't do this. The quality control is very good: absolutely no defects. The monitor has a futuristic "Star-Trek control panel" looks to it, but it it is done in such a tasteful manner that it does not get old at all. Movies are great on this monitor, but it is absolutely perfect for text and gives me no eyestrain for those 8-hour coding/writing/analysis sessions. I have not seen a better monitor, especially at this price. Highly recommended.

Rating: Summary: Beats the competition Review: I looked long and hard at Sony, Samsung and Envision monitors before I bought this, and I have been very satisfied with my purchase. It is crystal clear with text, graphics and movies. Set it up with decent speakers and it's great for DVDs.
Rating: Summary: Great monitor for the money!!! Review: I'm an apple macintosh user, and stand by apple products all the way. I very seriously considered getting an Apple 17" studio display, but the cost is a little out of my league. After careful research on the net and checking it out in store, I decided on this NEC LCD1765. The style is retro and slick (one of my favorite stylistic devices is the blocky gameboy style gradient fade on the frame around the actual display), but more importantly the display quality is SUPERB! this looks as good to me as the apple LCDs (which i use every day at work)... Negative points: Funky button layout... may require a few "auto adjusts" to properly lock a crystal clear picture (but once this is done it doenst need to be done again unless you change the settings). Lack of DVI input. Once the picture is clear tho it is CRYSTAL clear, even with the lack of DVI. I can't really tell the difference. Good deal for the money! Sony style, apple quality, NEC logo on the front!

Rating: Summary: Is It High Quality CRT??!! Review: Let me first say that I researched 17" LCD monitors for over a month before settling on the NEC 1765. After reading dozens of reviews, online and off, I narrowed down my choices to the following: Samsung 173p, Sony SDM-HX73, and the NEC 1765. The Samsung 173p (note that there's a huge difference in picture quality between the 173p and 173s models) admittedly has a SLIGHTLY better (brigher) picture aided by its 700:1 contrast, but it also cost $200 dollars more. I'm happy to report that I was able to buy the NEC 1765 for $450 with a $50 rebate and a $50 sale at Circuit City. The Samsung also has a slower response time of 25 ms (versus 16ms for the NEC) which is not favorable for playing games or watching action movies (both things which my hubby enjoys using the computor for). Then there is the SONY SDM-HX73. It has a high contrast (500:1), a FAST response time of 16ms, as well as decent integretated speakers. Plus, a unigue design. But when I went to my local Fry's and saw the 3 monitors side by side, the images on the NEC LCD simply looked BETTER, BRIGHTER, and CRISPER. Also, the SLEEK and modern NEC made the SONY look bulky. And even though having integrated speakers save space, they pale in comparison to a good set of exterior speakers. Finally, the NEC is the only one that incorporates a HARD SCREEN protector which allows me not to stress out if someone touches the screen (like my 3 year old). The only criticism I have read about the NEC is the glare issure but I simply adjust the angle of the screen (it's only bad if the light source is directly behind it). Personally, the only complaint that I have is the 1 year warranty. I have to say though that having inspected it, it's built like a tank - there's nothing FLIMSY about it. Plus, it arrived with ZERO DEAD PIXELS. I replaced my 19" CRT monitor and as pleased as punch - I should have made the switch sooner. With my new LCD monitor, and my wireless Microsoft keyboard and mouse, my "aging" computer got a MAJOR styling update!
