Eizo Nanao FlexScan L768 Review

by Laura Blackwell

- Pricey and loaded with features, Eizo Nanao's FlexScan L768 is designed for use in demanding environments. Its well-organized on-screen display includes such advanced settings as gain control and gamma control, which few competitors offer. The bundled ScreenManager Pro software lets users select from five Fine Contrast modes, which optimize settings for different tasks: text, still images, movies, color matching (sRGB mode), and one user-configurable default setting. Though the on-screen menu is simple to use, the control buttons on the bezel have somewhat confusing labels. We'd have preferred actual words to the buttons' letters and cryptic symbols. Our jury found no serious flaws in the L768's consistently excellent image quality; the monitor earned a rating of Very Good in both graphics and text.

User Reviews for Eizo Flexscan L768

  • Reviewed by: kimwardfineartist

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Good for imaging for printing fine art giclee prints like I do with my art work. It is exactly as it was represented to be.

    Weaknesses: Controls on the front are hard to read.

    Overall Evaluation: Something happened to the cord on my other monitor that plugged in to the computer. This company designed their monitors so that if something happens you have to purchase a brand new monitor. It was not the best time financially for this to happen, but after I got this EIZO monitor, I am so glad my other monitor did this. What they do not realize is that when this happens they not only do not get an additional purchase from the customer, that customer will never recommend their product to anyone. The EIZO without any adjustments was far better that my other monitor ever was and I had it almost five years! The EIZO has the best warranty that I saw of monitors as I was searching for a new one

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Its clear, crisp, vivid really vivid, once I got mine, I looked at the 19" dell at work very differently, make sure you have a descent graphics card, to make it perform at its best

    Weaknesses: It gets fuzzy at refresh rates other than 70Mhz, it also does not have any labels on the adjustment buttons, and they blend away into the colour of the monitor, so you hardly can see what you adjust

    Overall Evaluation: It never slows down reguarless of its response time, Eizo has the best warranty, the screen itself is not soft like others so when you press it doesn't give you a rainbow or sink into the liquid crystal of the monitor, unlike others, and hey its 19" inches of space you will be glad to have. If you want a mercedes buy eizo, if you want a regular sedan buy any other monitor.
