LG's E91

The E91 features a 7.2mm depth and a bezel measuring just 4.35mm, which provides a near borderless appearance. The E91’s hanger-type hinge design makes it easy for users to adjust the monitor to the their preferred viewing angle.
In addition, the monitor features a native resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels, a 2ms GTG (5ms typical) response time, a dynamic contrast ratio of 10,000,000:1, a brightness of 250 cd/m2, and 170/160 viewing angles..
 
D237IPS

The D237IPS utilizes Film Pattern Retarder (FPR) 3D technology and an IPS panel to provide a smooth 3D experience and higher-grade image quality. The monitor comes with a 2D to 3D conversion function, a native resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels, a dynamic contrast ratio of 5,000,000:1, D-Sub and DVI inputs, a max brightness of 250 cd/m2 in 2D mode and 100 cd/m2 in 3D mode, and a stand allowing for panel rotation.

There hasn't been any new monitors above 1080 resolution in a very long time.

Backlight is a form of illusion used in LCDs. LED lighting is one form of backlightning. Therefore, it's not wrong to call LED monitors LCD monitors, it's just less specific.

1920x1200... otherwise... anything smaller is a DOWNGRADE.

I think the slim bezel is great in side-by-side monitor configuration, but from the looks of the monitors back side I don't think it has VESA monitor "holders", so could fix them to some third-party 3x1 monitor rigs.

They cant use LED as the name because the display technology is LCD. Big sellers foul you when they call it LED monitor and it just LED backlighting.

I guess 1920 x 1200 is not being produced anymore. More PC hardware becoming TV/Kiddie console friendly.

pretty sure I view the monitor from the front...not the side. Not really interested in how "thin" they can go. Up the performance or something geez

I've got 2560 x 1600 and I'm never going back to 1920 x 1080. Come on, LG, you can do better.

LOL at the "Retarder 3D technology". Who comes up with these names???

The display panel might be slim but I see a problem. The base and arm take up quite a bit of space. It defeats the purpose of a slim design.

2007 called they want their 1080p panels back. Give me a 30' LED backlit 120 hz panel. It might be a shiny new sleek design and all but its still a tiny 1080p crap panel they keep churning out. People dont have a clue that there is so much better out there. I game at 2560 x 1600 res or I dont game period.

I have three 1920x1200 monitors. I need to be going the direction of 2560x1600s, "2007 called they want their 1080p panels back" ... well said! My mom uses a 1920x1200... 'nuff said. I like soldier37, it is 2560x1600 time now.

Right now, the only thin thing I want on an LCD/LED monitor is the bezel. Give me a bezel that is only a mm or 2 thick.

Surely the E91 is nice looking but I'd rather prefer the utilitarian look of the Dell I have. Tilts, height-adjustable and portrait capable. Just what a programmer needs.

Ok cool can we say we've hit the peak of LCD monitors and move on to more exciting display types.
