Summary

Editor's Choice

HP may have intended the L2335 for the graphic design market, but what they may not have realized is that hardcore gamers will be drooling over this monitor for their ultimate gaming setup. With a 16ms response rate, the LP2335 plays games just as good, if not better, than traditional CRT monitors. Add to that the 16:9 widescreen format, component video input and a 1920x1200 native resolution and the L2335 will also make a fantastic HDTV display.


Graphic designers that want more versatility than the Apple Cinema display will find the L2335 a better solution. With its pivot capabilities and very adjustable neck this monitor should please even the most demanding. The LCD display is sharp, colorful and very bright thanks to the LG Electronics LCD panel it uses.

 

Those looking for an LCD monitor with more television like features will want to pay the extra few hundred dollars and go for the HP f2304 which uses the same LCD display as the L2335 but also adds integrated speakers and a more stylish consumer friendly aesthetic design. So if you are looking for an LCD display that you plan on having a long-term relationship with, the L2335 just might be the one for you.
