"average results" (3 out of 5 stars) Value for money: 3 out of 5 stars
Despite featuring a useful pivoting screen stand, the w2408h didn't impress in terms of image quality and the glossy finish to the screen didn't help things either. Digital Photo appreciated the inclusion of an HDMI lead in the box, but without a DVI port or DVI-HDMI adaptor, users will be stuck with VGA as the only viable connection method.

5 out of 5 stars Value for money: 5 out of 5 stars, "Best Buy"
With its high contrast ratio and impressive brightness, the w2408h impresses with its excellent image quality and solid value for money. PC Advisor felt it was one of the best all-round screens at this size and would suit multitaskers very well.

8 out of 10 points
Pocket Lint liked the w2409h as a monitor. Its vivid picture and impressive size make the w2409h a great all round performer. The only word of warning concerns the speakers which don't match the high end quality of the rest of the monitor.

"... It may not break any records in the picture quality stakes but the image quality is still decent, and unless you're a specialist user, for the price, this large, high resolution display is simply a great buy."
