w1953s-pf

Yes, it is an LCD monitor that has reasonable price with low consumption energy and also for me has an elegant design. It has some differents with 1953T, such as connection port, W1953S-PF only with analog-RGB connection that I think LG can cut the price just for only est. USD 125 now. For response time, W1953S-PF is set to 5 ms, while w1953T has 2 ms, this is the main factor that can drop the price of W1953S below W1953T. For W1953S, it is 18.5″ and W1953T is 19″.

This LCD has a touch sensor menu, this feature can make your friend to be jealous that with the price about USD 125, it brings beautiful design and feature. Also with contrast ratio of 50000:1 (DFC), it also brings nice color to your desktop. It also has a SMART function and FUN, it has an auto-bright feature that can measure and set the brightness depend of your room environment.

I’ve bought this about 1 month ago and what disappoint me are the connector available is just only analog-RGB port. Well, I just want LCD like this has a DVI port. Beware of the accessories they give to you. Check the warranty card and also the ’sticker’. This sticker is needed to be placed with the card and has the serial number if your LCD. For the first time I buy an LCD, I don’t know a thing about sticker that is needed to replacement warranty. I didn’t find any sticker when I was checking the box. Unfortunately, when I was checking the LCD at home, I found a dead pixel. How come at the store I couldn’t find it? Always check the sticker if you are planning to buy this LCD.

Well well, but at last, I can replace it, but without the sticker, the process is very frustrating me. I have to talk to the distributor itself and their superior of course. Just for info, they will replace the LCD that has dead pixel for 3 months only without any requirement of dead pixel count. I have only 1 dead pixel and they replace my panel.

Conclusion, this LCD is nice and has great feature for the price. With only 22 watt output max brings you an energy-saving monitor and money-saving monitor. 3 months zero dead pixel warranty is also good one, but if you want to replace it with more than 3 months usage, I’m afraid it will use ISO policy or their policy with dead pixel problem. My friend talk to the distributor itself and says that if your LCD has 1 or more dead pixel, before 3 months, they will replace it.

Many LCD monitors have one or more dead pixel on their screen panel. As you know, a dead pixel is a defective pixel that remains unlit or you can say always off pixel. This kind of defective pixels are usually best seen against a bright background, like white, it’s the best. Many people usually say that dead pixel is a pixel that remains on, a white colored pixel or so on, but actually, these are defective pixels that perform unexpected/ undesirable. Defective pixels itself by ISO 13406-2 are distinguished between three different types of defective pixels. Hot pixel, is the opposite of dead pixel. This pixel is always on and white colored pixel. Dead pixel, is a pixel that always off and Stuck Pixel, will usually be most visible against a black background. These defective pixels happen because of LCD’s transistor(s) malfunctioning.
