Lenovo ThinkVision L220x

A newcomer to the Lenovo ThinkVision family of LCD monitors, the Lenovo ThinkVision L220x ($499.99 list) delivers outstanding color and text reproduction and offers a bevy of business centric features, including auto pivot capabilities, a USB hub, and network management software.

The L220x uses an SPVA (Super Patterned Vertical Alignment) panel rather than the low cost TN+ panels found on most displays.

SPVA panels generally provide deeper black levels and wider viewing angles than TN+ panels, without sacrificing response time. Unfortunately, SPVA panels cost more to manufacture, which usually means higher prices for consumers.
