LG IPS231P vs Fujitsu P23T-6 IPS - any reviews?

[patrick0]

I'm going to buy a new monitor, and am looking for IPS+LED. Because price is important, I have two options (less than 350€):
LG IPS231P
Fujitsu P23T-6 IPS

I'm quite sure that both of them are very good screens, but would like to read some reviews about them, specifically about color quality and possible noise (buzz, hum).

Also considering the difference in response time and dynamic contrast, they probably don't use the same panel - just another reason to read reviews.

Thanks in advance!

I have written a small review for the Fujitsu P23T-6 IPS. It is in german, but there are helpful pictures (also the text helps to put them in context). BTW, this monitor is completely silent.

Thanks for the review. I heard some complains about buzz/hum at low brightness values, but that doesn't seem the case with this model.

Where did you read that the Fujitsu is Pixel Class I? Does it come in the manual? I couldn't find information about it in the spec-sheet.

One note: the direct competitors are LG IPS231P (50€ cheaper), and the BenQ you said (same price as the LG, but LED+PVA so theoretically worse color and much worse response time - although 1" larger). All three monitors are available in stores in Scandinavia and Germany.

Pixel class is noticed in the sheet pdf under Complaince->Global. As I said the monitor is silent und i'm pretty sure there isn't any variation on this between different models of this line. Actually i think its a fair bet to claim that all W-LED-Backlights are silent.

I haven't seen the BenQ, but i hear reports noting the same problems with the backlight bleeding and also about bad response rating, so i'm not going to try it.

The LG IPS231P isn't available in germany atm, never heard anything of it (in terms of reviews) neither. The only other display which with IPS + LED here is the NEC MultiSync EA232WMi-BK. I'm considering getting this one to compare it to the P23T-6, but the specs are nearly identical which leads me to assume they might actually use the same panel which will then of course have the same backlight bleeding problem. So i'm not sure if its worth the hassle yet.
