PC Pro Awards 2008: Monitors
WINNER: Samsung
You may not realise it, but there's every chance Samsung technology is what powers your display – it's the world's biggest manufacturer of TFT panels. But its own-brand monitors are a force to be reckoned with too, as over 1,000 PC Pro readers gave us feedback on their Samsung displays. Impressively, it came top for both image quality and reliability.
Highly Commended: BenQ, LG
Just like Samsung, LG is a Korean company that makes its own TFT panels (along with manufacturing partner Philips) and with tremendous success: 95% of its customers would buy an LG monitor again. Both companies need to watch out for BenQ, though, as it earned the same level of satisfaction from its customers, along with high praise for its image quality.Categories

The star ratings above are based on PC Pro\'s Reliability & Service 2008 survey, which took place between May and August 2008. This year, almost 15,000 readers took part: we asked about the customer support they received, the reliability and quality of the products they bought, and whether they\'d buy from the company again. We then combined all this information to produce a star rating, and the company with the highest rating wins. If any companies were close runners-up, they win a Highly Commended award. Note that for the results to be statistically valid, we need 100 people to have given their feedback on the company. This is why many smaller companies aren\'t included in the table.
