BenQ DV3080

Monday November 15, 2004

BenQ

$5499

Price at time of review.

As well as TV viewing (an analog tuner is built in) this screen's strength comes from its LCD-ness which makes it awesome for plugging into a PC (Media Center, anyone?) or for components like digital set-top boxes or DVD players.

Big screens are great -- there's no denying that. And the whopping 30in BenQ DV3080 LCD TV is one that's got the goods.

Big screens are great -- there's no denying that. And the whopping 30in BenQ DV3080 LCD TV is one that's got the goods. For a big screen TV the price is not too bad, but as well as TV viewing (an analog tuner is built in) the screen's strength comes from its LCD-ness which makes it awesome for plugging into a PC (Media Center, anyone?) or for components like digital set-top boxes or DVD players. It's got a 500:1 contrast ratio, 500 cd/m2 brightness, a native resolution of 1280 x 768 and two side-mounted 10W stereo speakers.
