Its great build, combination of colours, excellent stand and height adjust, and the fact that it has a portrait mode are all facts that simply grab you by the throat and force you to accept this as a serious contender for your cash, if you happen to be shopping for a non-widescreen 19inch LCD. DisplayMate showcases some issues with contrast first and colours later. This monitor has issues with the shade intensity tests, a testament to a mediocre TN panel behind the scenes.
F.E.A.R had a good time thrashing this panel, although we must say the colours were rather good in the game, but the contrast (or lack of it!) will annoy you throughout. As with the PG191 movie watching isn't recommended on a non widescreen. There was also a slight issue with pixel response time as our movie tests revealed. At a price of Rs 14,000, the 1908FP offers a great number of features not seen on monitors this cheap. If only its performance was really great we'd have recommended it with our eyes closed. For now, it makes sense as a solution for an office or Internet Pc.
