17" LCD Part V: Four Panels Compared
ViewSonic VP171b
ViewSonic has once again achieved excellence. After a few rather disappointing models, the manufacturer is offering this magnificent VP171b. This truly ergonomic monitor can switch to pivoting mode, it can be adjusted sideways and is height-adjustable, the case is elegant, and the transformer is incorporated into the stand. All this gives it the highest grade in terms of ergonomics, 5 / 5. Furthermore, the case is most attractive, even though made of plastic.
ViewSonic has also taken care of the details. Its OSD is undeniably the clearest that we were given to test.
