Sharp LL-172A

Reviewed by: swedrows

Duration of ownership:

Strengths: Great picture and color. Text is clear and crisp. In terms of visual appearance, one of the best looking LCD's around. Great price too if you were able to get it with a rebate like I did!

Weaknesses: no DVI input, but you won't miss it since the monitor produces great image and color quality

Overall Evaluation: I just received my Sharp LL172A-B LCD monitor and it is amazing. I read up on LCD's and what to look for and this one has it all (except for a DVI connection). The lack of DVI connection was the one thing I hesitated about before buying this monitor, but now that I have it hooked up, you are not going to be able to tell much difference at all, if any. Pictures, games and DVD's look great on this monitor. The picture and color is true to life, and this is important to me since I work with colors and renderings. Text is easy to read and crisp...setup for this monitor is fairly easy. And one more thing to add, this monitor looks great! Some monitors are good quality, but they lack in the aesthetics department. This one delivers! It is one of the most attractive monitors I have seen to place on your desk or hang on a wall. The price is excellent, especially when you compare quality in image, product brand and ease of use. Kudos to Sharp on a great monitor that doesn't burn a hole in your pocket!
