Review on ๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ Kogi Alaska L7EH 17" LCD Monitor with High-Quality Built-in Speakers and 1280X1024 Resolution by Casey Weaver

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good value for money = good value for money

I bought this display to complement my Powerbook G4 and love the fact that I can split my work between two monitors. Therefore, I mainly compare my evaluation of the display with the display and the speakers of the Powerbook. At first, this display did not provide a clear picture. However, after about 10 minutes, the pixel rate, horizontal position, and phase settings were much better. These settings control how image pixels align with physical pixels on the display. While it still doesn't quite match the clarity of the PowerBook's built-in display, it works well now. The Powerbook uses a digital connection with a built-in display, and you _can_ see the difference. The speakers on the display are way better than I expected and way better than in a laptop. Admittedly, these are small speakers and therefore a little tinny, but they're as good as any other in-display speakers I've heard.
