HP S2031a
$190.00
Released June, 2010
The Pros:Great for general use - supports up to 720p video. Good picture quality - produces bright, crisp images. Nice aesthetics - implements a smooth, curved LCD bezel.
The Cons:Glossy bezel and stand - easily attracts dust and fingerprints. Lacks 1080p support - not Full HD compliant. Not the best choice for gamers - slower 5ms response time means potentially blurry imagery.
