bit-tech published a review of BenQ's X2200W 22" widescreen monitor

If ever a monitor was a tale of two halves, the BenQ X2200W is it. The bad half of the equation is that the image enhancement measures area a major flop. In truth, we didn't expect a great deal. Traditionally, these sorts of techniques tend to promise a whole lot more than they deliver. In this case, they merely serve as a reminder that there's no substitute for premium panel technology.

However, consider the X2200W as a more conventional 22-inch TN+Film model and it makes a much better case for itself. It's a competitive panel with a good range of input options. What it isn't however, is terribly well priced. The essentially pointless enhancement technology comes at a cost that pushes this panel into a price range that sees it competing with the more affordable 24-inch TN alternatives, complete with much higher 1,920 x 1,200 resolutions.

With a quality PVA or IPS panel that might just be winnable fight. But as it is, the X2200W is simply too expensive.
