Tech like this is pretty important to anyone that requires consistent luminance and colour regardless of their viewing angle (graphic designers, illustrators, artists, photographers, etc). Whether this monitor possesses the proper tech for £200 is another kettle of fish.

Looks promising tho.

With PVA at this price point, buying a TN 24" becomes pretty stupid for anyone.

This seems to be the same monitor as Iolair MB24W, or something very similar. There are also versions with other names such as DGM.

I bought the Iolair version but had to return it because of it super bright backlight that made my eyes bleed. There was no way to change the actual backlight brightness. Otherwise it would have been a great monitor. It had very little input lag, viewing angles were great except for blacks getting a bit grayer at screen edges (presumably because of the insanely bright backlight) and it scaled to lower resolutions real well. It did not have correct aspect ratio scaling though.

If this Yuraku version has a dimmer backlight then it should be a great monitor for the price. Atleast the panel seems to be the same which would be a good thing. Im not going to do too much detective work to find out if it is the same monitor or not.

After returning the Iolair, I got a Lenovo L220X. A 22" display with a 1920x1200 S-PVA panel and I have nothing bad to say about this monitor. 22" is a better size for that resolution anyway in my oppinion.
