Editorial Reviews :
The Envision EN-7500 is a 17-inch TFT active matrix display that offers all the high performance features you would expect from an LCD, plus it has a built-in TV tuner. It saves you loads of space, eliminating the need for a separate TV. Watch movies, channel surf, browse the web, or work on your documents--all from the same unit.
Picture-in-picture capability, VESA wall-mounting, and wide viewing angles mean you'll never miss a moment of your favorite shows; and the high 1,280 x 1,024 resolution and 450:1 contrast, 0.264mm dot pitch, and 250 cd/m2 brightness will keep images clear and sharp. Onscreen controls offer you a wide selection of adjustments, regardless of what mode you're in (PC, TV, Video, PiP) and are available in your choice of English, French, German, or Spanish.
The EN-7500 comes complete with a power cord and adapter, remote control with batteries, detachable VGA DB15 male-male connector, installed TV tuner, tilt base, and quick start guide and manual. It is supported by Envision's generous three-year warranty on parts and labor.
Buyer Reviews :
1. The contrast ratio is not 450:1 as in Amazon's spec.
-- In fact ,it's 350:1 in Envision's web-site & user manual.
** you can find in the manual if you check it first.
-- I checked Envision's web-site in early Aug., it's still 450:1, But they changed it to 350:1 by late Aug.
-- I called the technical support last week. The lady said Envision firstly used contrast ratio 450:1 LCD panel for this model but they changed to a cheaper one later (350:1).
## THIS WILL MISLEAD CONSUMERs to make decision to buy.
** the contrast ratio is a KEY factor in LCD monitor display. The higher-- the better -- but a little bit expensive.
2. TV (not so good as expected)
-- the picture/color is not so vivid as conventional CRT type TV (if you request good picture quality).
-- Maybe it's probably due to Envision using the lower contrast ratio (350:1) LCD panel.
-- This is a COMMON problem among those LCD TVs in the market.
** Even the Samsung, Sharp......
-- I'd recommend selecting a higher contrast ratio one when you're going to buy & should check the manual first.
3. Good PC monitor (1280x1024 resolution)
-- performs still good with contrast ratio 350:1.
** you'll feel it's the same good as other manufacturer's LCD 17' monitor when you shop around at relailers (Fry's CompUSA...).
-- good picture quality (PC mode) with wide angle display & 0.264mm fine pitch.
-- Expecting excellent performance if Envision change back using higher contrast ratio LCD panel (450:1).
4. Good multimedia monitor with its TV, Audio/Video (AV), S-video inputs for external VCR/DVD/TV game connections.
-- the PIP function is amazing, but you can only watch TV while you're using the PC. Envision should expand it's function by enable AV & S-video selection in PIP mode.
-- Fix PIP size. You can't change the size of PIP.
Overall, it's still worth to buy at this price. I'll give 5-star rating if better panel is used (contrast ratio 450:1) for better TV picture quality.
