Asus T1 Series
$500.00
Released July, 2009
The Pros:Full 1080p capable. Affordable. Dual HDMI inputs.
The Cons:Cheap glossy plastic bezel and stand. 16:9 aspect ratio is ideal for TV viewing, poorer for PC usage - not ideal for web browsing, productivity software. Probably based on a TN panel with poorer colour reproduction and limited viewing angles.

There is also a built in TV tuner that receives both digital (DVB-T) and analog (PAL/SECAM) signals. The dual 7-watt speakers, which are covered in an attractive speaker mesh, are capable of delivering cinematic virtual surround sound and there are four sound presets for Vocal, Rock, Soft and Boom modes for speech, rock music, soft music and video games respectively. The Splendid Game Mode boosts the brightness and contrast of dim, hard-to-see areas of the screen while leaving well-lit areas untouched. The 16:9 aspect ratio not only lets you enjoy HD content but also helps with productivity for web browsing, e-mail composing, document editing and creative work. The frame is designed to match today's contemporary home decor with stylish curves, chic gold accents, an intricate floral-patterned speaker mesh and a gorgeous high gloss stand.
