NEC MultiSync LCD1735NXM Review

by Laura Blackwell

- As the similarity in names suggests, NEC's MultiSync LCD1735NXM hails from the same product family as the company's MultiSync LCD1935NXM. The light-up membrane controls located on the base are unobtrusive until touched; but once activated, they are easy to see in low light. The built-in speakers, which reside in a nice-looking cylindrical speaker bar at the bottom of the screen, point to the sides, for a very clean appearance. Regrettably, they generated muddy sound at best. The 1735NXM allows tilt adjustment only; height, swivel, and pivot adjustments aren't available.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: good quality and response time

    Weaknesses:

    Overall Evaluation: this is a cool LCD monitor. I like it very much right after I see it. It's work also makes me impressed. The color, the response time, the contrast, are all good. And I finally got my rebate back and it cost me only $170 dollars after rebate.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: great picture, fast response time

    Weaknesses: poor speaker sound

    Overall Evaluation: I bought this monitor to replace an older CRT. I was worried about shadowing at first, however the 16ms response time has proven to compete with CRT's even when gamming. The display is very nice, sharp pictures and crisp letters makes it a ease to look at. Set up was a breeze with the plug and play, all cables are located at the back of the base. This allows you to set it up with out the eye-sore of cables at the back of your desk. Menu controls are a bit touchy, but once you get use to them they are fine. BAD: built in speakers are bery weak. Poor sound quality. I would recommend using external speakers if you require sound. This was not a problem for me because I already had a good speaker system.
