In our game tests, F.E.A.R. looked crisp: good contrast, and good colour and detailing. Ditto Oblivion. Movie playback was also good—great colours. Our only grouse is that it’s not widescreen.
Black and lovin’ it
With a design similar to that of the ultra-sexy Bordeaux series we reviewed earlier, the 19-inch 932B is all curves. Monitors just can’t go wrong with piano black!
Build quality is excellent, and the curvy body is definitely a relief from all the monitors we’ve seen in recent days. The stand tries to keep up with aesthetics but could use a little more creativity in that direction.
The menu buttons are underneath the bottom bezel—good looks, but they come at the cost of usability.
The 932B uses a TN panel, with decent on-paper specifications—a 700:1 contrast ratio and a brightness of 300 cd/m2. A response time of 5 ms is good enough for most applications.
Our DisplayMate tests showed good screen pixel resolution. Colour separation was good, and the 932S did well with the primary colours. All this means the 932S is good for working with applications that use a lot of colour.
