What are the pros and cons of LED backlit LCD monitors?

So far looking at there three http://www.newegg.com/Product/Productcompare.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=100007617&IsNodeId=1&bop=And&ActiveSearchResult=True&CompareItemList=20%7C24%2D236%2D049%5E24%2D236%2D0 49%2D03%23%2C24%2D236%2D153%5E24%2D236%2D153%2DTS% 2C24%2D236%2D052%5E24%2D236%2D052%2DTS

I like the middle one for the fact of NO build in crappy speakers that I never use anyways. Plus it is the only LED baCKLIT ONE. Will probably look again tomorrow and order on Cyber Monday.

I don't know if you have bought a new one yet, but here goes: Go-go thread Resurrection!

If you don't mind paying a little more than the ASUS, might I suggest this one instead?
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824260047&Tpk=Dell%20U2412M
It is also LED backlit, but with an e-IPS panel, 1920x1200 resolution and a Display-Port instead of an HDMI port.
Tftcentral.co.uk has some really nice things to say about it once it is calibrated (there is an ICC profile for it on their homepage):
http://www.tftcentral.co.uk/reviews/dell_u2412m.htm

I just recently got two of these, and when using the ICC profile from TFTcentral, they are pretty much spot on for gamma and color-accuracy in the tests I have available (CLTest first and foremost, I do not have access to professional equipment).

Best Regards :toast:

Wow, I was just poking around for a 24" monitor and now I think I've found the right one... Thank you "DTU_XaVier"

I just picked up this monitor for $299 and applied Tftcentral's ICC profile and have to say I'm absolutely blown away by this monitor. Over the past two years I've bought a few other recommended monitors such as Asus, LG and Samsung to replace my older Dell 2407 but ended up returning all of them as I could never get them to look nearly as good as my Dell. I ended up retiring my 2407 to my girlfriend. Anyone that's on the fence about this monitor shouldn't hesitate, it's stunning.....
