Boasting an 18.1-inch display and sleekly modern styling, the Multiscan S81 is a flexible flat screen monitor specially designed to reproduce high-quality images from analog signals. Plus, it's easy to use. Setup takes just a few minutes, thanks to the Advanced Auto ImageSet feature, a simple function that automatically sets image position, phase, and pitch adjustments.

The S81 incorporates rich color processing that optimizes both filters and backlights to create intense, high-contrast colors.

An anti-glare hardcoat maintains a clear view under all lighting conditions.

Sony's Zero Footprint design features a pivoting base that provides easily adjustable viewing options for multiple users, and can be detached for wall mounting. Weighing just over 18 pounds, it's less than half the size of older CRT monitors; and the two-tone gray casing smoothly blends with any decor. The included Kensington-compatible lock provides extra security for the system. Sony provides an impressive three-year limited warranty on parts, labor, and backlight.

Sony SDM-S81/B 18" Flat Panel LCD Monitor (Black) Reviews

I will not be buying another Sony product again. Customer support is now an oxymoron. They will not replace it, sent it back once and said there was nothing wrong with it after having it for 5 weeks.

Was is the key word here. I was told in February of this year that they would put a "rush" on it for repair. I bought this monitor in November of '03.

Still haven't seen it. I have sent it back twice and still don't have possession. I was a HUGE Sony fan.

I guess they don't mind having blurred print and discolorations throughout. I guess their idea of a rush and mine are two different things.

 

Would highly recommend. Nice, clear monitor. Graphics/text are sharp and clear from any angle. True colors and viewing angle is a plus.

 

Once you get close and touch it, it feels "plasticky" and flimsy. I would recommend the ViewSonic, Samsung or even the Mitsubishi monitors, due to image quality and features over this one any day. It is in the same price range with other 18" LCD monitors but lacks some of their features, such as a DVI input or height adjustment. Images and text on this monitor are ok, the design is steril and industrial.
