CONCLUSION
We all know that LG is among the top three leading LCD panel manufacturers in the world and that has allowed them to release some pretty impressive gaming monitors (and LCD screens in general) but their entry level models haven’t received nearly the same amount of publicity so it was nice to see that they are also doing very well in that area. Of course due to the somewhat easy to spot lag (especially on racing games) and less than impressive color reproduction the 24MP48HQ-P model may not be really suitable for gaming use but thanks to its 24 inches, Full HD resolution and IPS LED panel it does represent a very good value for money. Unfortunately it comes without a pair of built-in speakers and that may discourage potential buyers but for office use we don’t think they are that important while for home use chances are people will have a better sound system in place.
Speaking about value for money the 24MP48HQ-P IPS LED Monitor by LG currently retails for just USD137 inside the USA (Amazon.com) and for 139.99Euros inside the EU (Amazon.de). This of course is great news since there aren’t that many 24 inch screens in the market currently that feature an IPS panel for the same amount of money and although we can’t recommend it to gamers (we should have something by LG for you really soon) it should feel right at home with people who are looking for an affordable yet balanced model.
