Albatron LWX-30-AMS: Albatron's Convergence LCD TV

Benchmark Analysis

Black level adjustments were no where near what the Samsung 213T produced. However, we must consider that the LWX-30-AMS is almost twice as bright. The brighter image is considerably easier on our eyes when gaming or watching movies.

On the positive side, color replication and response time were both excellent on this LCD. Due to the intensity of the backlights, some of our intensity levels were a little washed out (particularly in the cyan range). This was not a major issue as denoted by the scorecard.

Interference was basically on part with what we had expected. Over the DVI connection, the ability to adjust the phase basically assured us that we would witness zero interference due to signal noise. Running the DisplayMate benchmark in conjunction with the SypderVision software helped us determine the phase early on after installing the monitor.

Any sort of glare on the unit was very minimal. Sitting next to the Samsung 213T, we noticed identical levels of glare. In fact, due to the brightness of the LCD, Albatron could have easily gone with a stronger coating without any repercussions in the image quality. The LWX-30-AMS is an excellent monitor for side viewing with low glare.
