Overview

» Enlarge

The good:
  • Affordable
  • OSD allows you to turn off the power light if it annoys
  • Perfectly good for every day use
The bad:
  • Glossy screen
  • Does not support Blu-ray 24Hz over PS3
  • Blacks aren't as deep as we'd like
  • TN based means colour professionals should stay away
The bottomline:

At a price of AU$649, the 2309m is a decent buy. While it performs well, we'd be more tempted to find something with a matte screen to cut down on reflections.

Editors’ rating:

7.9/10

RRP: AU$649.00
