VIEWSONIC N1700W, 17 16:9 HDTV READY LCD MONITOR WITH TV TUNER

Amazon.com Product Description

ViewSonic's NextVision N1700w offers a 17-inch widescreen liquid-crystal display and enhanced viewing with native 1,280 x 768 resolution, more than 450 nits of brightness, and a high 450:1 contrast ratio for dynamic images from any source. Multimedia enhancements include 3:2 pulldown and a 3D digital comb filter that supports both enhanced definition television (EDTV) and HDTV resolution formats.

Unlike LCD televisions optimized only for standard TV viewing, the N1700w lets you view all forms of digital and analog content, including compatibility with HDTV receivers and set top boxes at resolutions of 480p, 720p, and 1080i.

In addition, the N1700w delivers full-screen viewing and picture-in-picture (PIP) capabilities for watching video or TV content while working simultaneously on PC applications. Multiview or POP lets you create up to 9 picture windows on the screen for viewing multiple TV channels at the same time. The TV also features advanced digital de-interlacing and image scaling, high-fidelity audio with a 20-watt integrated speaker system (10 watts x 2), a 181-channel tuner, and a slim-line remote control.

Precision scaling and image processing include a digital 3-D comb filter and 3:2 pulldown correction. Digital video mastering introduces a common distortion when adjusting 24 frames-per-second movies to 30 fps video; 3:2 pulldown reversal digitally corrects this distortion, removing the redundant information to display a film-frame-accurate picture. The comb filter enhances resolution by removing blurred edges between colors and reducing dot crawl (tiny, moving dots of color along a sharp color separation in a vertical line, as in a depiction of a character's striped T-shirt).

The included TV tuner module offers additional ports to easily add a digital camera, DVD player or gaming console.

ViewSonic Lacks Intuitive Controls.......2005-10-19

ViewSonic products are reliable and present sharp images. They are basically computer monitors turned into TV's. If you want to work on your computer and watch TV at the same time, it's a great solution. If you want a TV only, not so good. Controls and menus are not intuitive and quickly become bothersome. The major TV manufacturers have been incorporating consumer input for many years and their operating systems reflect this experience. Better to buy a Sony, Sharp or Samsung.

Not bad but not as good as Samsung and Toshiba.......2004-05-16

I saw this TV in a local store. They have a few model displays. THe sound system is not that good. Picture is really nice. But I'd recommend the Samsung LTN1735 and Toshiba over this one. They just seem more stylish and better. Samsung has HDTV too. Not sure about the Toshiba 17 In or 20" LCD TVs. Spend $20-40 you can get a better one. But this one is not bad, really. Its picture quality is better than Sharp's, in my opinion.

great product at a good price.......2004-03-19

For some reason, it is listed separately as the model N1700W although they are the same monitor. After I ordered this, I found the 3/3 negative reviews on the N1700W listing on amazon, I was worried. However, this is an editor's choice at PC mag on 11/2003, it can't be that bad.

After the order at Amazon, I recieved it from J&R in just two days. Like some other reviewers say, the control buttons on the monitor is too sensitive, but I find the buttons on the remote quite easy to use. So I probably won't need to touch those buttons on the monitor again.

The picture quality is decent. At first, I find the color non-uniform, but it turns out that my video card is not set at the recommended refresh rate of 60 Hz. After that, the image is sharp and clear. As with most other LCDs, only the native resolution (1280x768) works best.

If you are like myself planning to use the DVI output, it doesn't come with the cable. Make sure you order one somewhere.

There is a rebate ending 5/1/04; but it only applies to certain retailers (J&R and others). Check carefully before you purchase. With the rebate, it is priced just a little more than some other 17" LCDs. But with wide-screen, and DVI output, and built-in speakers, and TV turner with PIP and composite video input, you don't find these everyday.
