Samsung S24B350BS 24" Monitor £120 Amazon

johnwd

£120 on Amazon, "RRP £179". It does not have HDMI (or speakers) unfortunately, but I thought it was great value for a 24" (the 22" of the same model is also £120 on amazon) and went ahead and ordered one (amazon deliver monitors to Ireland). This was also put up on Hot UK deals a week or more ago and didn't attract much heat, so maybe I'm wrong and it's not such a bargain - I though the replys were a bit harsh/off topic, but maybe not.

The Acer 24in monitor is marginally better value and has a hdmi socket. I got it for €130 from Amazon.

Thinking of getting the same one, with VAT it works out at €162,41

It's worth noting that the smaller IPS screens start around this price - around 22'' so you have to weigh the pros/cons.

Looks like I should have done more research - that ACER looks really good value and gets great user reviews (on amazon). The price of these things must have dropped like a stone over the last year or so. That 27" is my next upgrade Mr. Fetard.

Yep. Thats the one. Got it at £102.00. Has a hdmi socket , so you could stick a hd stb on to it when not using on pc:D

I'm tempted by the Acer - thanks OP and Kristopherus.

Some of the Dell monitors take a soundbar, makes life easier, tidier etc.

Can the Acer take a soundbar I wonder? does such a thing exist for this monitor?

That's a really good price, the cheapest I've seen (with shipping) is around €195.

Between reading this thread and others, I've gone for this http://komplett.ie/Komplett/product/monitors/20097160/dell_23_u2312hm_lcd_8ms_vga_dvi_d/details.aspx
I wanted wall mounted so swung it for me but gets real good reviews...
