Not ready to go big screen? Just need a medium sized set to handle your bedroom Xbox 360 addiction? ViewSonic's got a new one ready to splash down in your abode -- the 22-inch VT2230. Said panel checks in with a 1,920 x 1,080 resolution, VGA / HDMI inputs, a built-in ATSC / NTSC / QAM TV tuner and a relatively small price tag. Further specs include a 1,000:1 contrast ratio, five millisecond response time, 300 nits of brightness and twin 3-watt speakers. Sure, nothing mind-blowing or anything, but it's not half bad for $349.

If it has speakers and a tuner, isn't it a TV and not a monitor?

Highly Ranked

I don't know.... I think I'd have a REALLY hard time buying a Viewsonic anything these days. A lot of the LCD monitors we bought at work recently were VS and they're AWFUL. I mean, we bought hundreds (bulk discount for upgrades) and they probably the worst monitors I've ever had the displeasure of working with.

The casing and design are incredibly cheap. The cable for the external power brick was way too short. MANY of the monitors managed to have some sort of burned in image after just a couple weeks. I didn't even think that was possible... but these ones managed.

I think I'd save my $350.
