Product Description
Watch your productivity soar when you go wide with NEC. The 26" (25.5" VIS) NEC MultiSync LCD2690WUXi delivers an entirely new perspective to your desktop. With its wide-format design (16:10 aspect ratio), which provides roughly the same work area as two smaller sized displays, you can simultaneously view multiple/side-by-side application windows. With its multitude of leading-edge capabilities, combined with groundbreaking design, this monitor could easily be considered the most intelligent visual display solution to date.

  • 91% color gamut vs. NTSC and 93.8% coverage of the Adobe RGB color space
  • With NEC's exclusive X-Light Pro backlight/sensor design, brightness and color settings can be held constant over the useful life of the display
  • ColorComp technology compensates for slight variations in the white uniformity level, improves color, and evens out the displays luminance uniformity
  • Superior screen performance (800:1 contrast ratio, 1920 x 1200 native resolution, 400cd/m2 brightness)
  • Supports an internal programmable 12-bit lookup table (LUT) for calibration

    4 out of 5 stars Exceptional quality but at a cost   September 11, 2008
    Excellent options and quality.
    A little pricey
    Make sure you are ok with the wide gamut before buying.
    For movies (blu-ray) I use the Nvidia panel to bring down saturation to ~35%. Otherwise faces are unnaturally pink.

    Photoshop is a must.



    5 out of 5 stars The Monitor My Wife has always Wanted   September 9, 2008
     2 out of 3 found this review helpful

    We are amateur photographers. We take classes from nationally known photographers. We ask them questions about the best equipment. Out of one of these sessions, we learned about this monitor.

    Its performance (91% of Adobe RGB) and price are above comparison. Other monitors of this type go for thousands more.

    It was her recent birthday present and my stock now is very high.



    4 out of 5 stars Astonishing color, HDCP enabled, can play Blu-Ray   July 24, 2008
     1 out of 2 found this review helpful

    I got this for editing HD video and photographs. I wanted 1920 pixels with a wide color gamut, and this monitor definitely delivered. Breathtaking color. I was watching the BBC planet earth series in HD and it was amazing.

    Four stars because the monitor had a slightly dimmed band around the edge. I don't think a monitor this expensive should have any visible luminance variation. I returned it and got an EIZO monitor. Eizo CE and CG LCD panels are the gold standard.



    5 out of 5 stars NEC MulitSync LCD2690WUXi   June 4, 2008
     2 out of 3 found this review helpful

    I recently purchased a NEC MulitSync LCD2690WUXi to replace my good, ol' Apple 21 inch studio monitor...which held up really well for many more years than it had a right to. I'm an illustrator who sits in front of a monitor for 50-60 hours every week. This new NEC monitor is a treat to work with. Great color, easy screen management and a generous work area for a very reasonable price.


    5 out of 5 stars Identical to LaCie 526   May 26, 2008
     3 out of 3 found this review helpful

    Not only is it identical to the LaCie 526. Even the online manuals - from NEC and LaCie - are identical. It's a beautiful monitor, but it's weird that it's sold for such different prices.
