    The Explain Series

    • Asus VW223B

      Asus VW223B

      The Asus VW223B is acceptable for its intended audience — those who need to add a second monitor cheaply, and are undemanding in its use.

    • Asus MK241H

      Asus MK241H

      The MK241H is a decent performer for what it is, but for AU$100 more you could have the vastly superior Dell 2408WFP or Samsung 245T.

    • Acer P241WB

      Acer P241WB

      High brightness and a low price make the 24-inch Acer P241w immediately appealing, as does its unique bezel design, but we found its brightness came at the expense of deep colours and blacks.

    • HP LP2480zx

      HP LP2480zx

      HP's LP2480zx is a sight to behold. Now if only we had a spare AU$4,200 kicking around...

    • ViewSonic VP2250wb

      ViewSonic VP2250wb

      While it's definitely not a professional monitor as claimed, as an all-purpose monitor ViewSonic's VP2250wb does well, offering a step up within the 22-inch space.
