Chimei 22QD LCD: 22″ of Full HD Goodness

I have a Chimei 42V7899D and it’s a great TV but the trouble I’m having is it doesn’t play all my WMP video files from my USB storage device and I can’t figure it out. Any suggestions?

saan ba merong chimei products dito sa parañaque? kasi naghahanap ako ng similar product na nireview niyo, unfortunately, wala akong makita sa sm, salamat…

but pc trends is only selling it to companies and not to private individuals….

oh I forgot to tell you, it has a two year warranty from Rsun.

My Chimei 19″ LCD got a problem after two years, my monitor is now black out but the green led power is still working. I already tried it in different CPU since I have a computer shop but the problem still exist. Anyway its not bad at all, after two years out of 37 LCD’s that I have its my first time to encounter a problem with this brand.

Does anyone here know where is the service center of ChiMei?

Chimei monitors are really good. I have a 24″ (24eh model), got it 2nd hand. Truly a bang for the buck. For calibration help esp. for graphic artists, download monitor checker.psd at http://www.aardenburg-imaging.com/documents.html and then load it at photoshop. You will be surprised on how this monitor will exhibit it’s dynamic range from whites to blacks with a little tweak on the brightness and contrast of this monitor.

chimei user myself. i’m a visual arts pro and i’ve used all kinds of monitors myself, from the Mitsubishi Diamond Pro, Apple Cinema monitors to the Dell Ultrasharps. I find that the Chimeis are superb value for the money. I have a 24 incher at home and it has sharp contrast and is Full HD, has 2 hdmi ports and costs 1/5th of professional monitors but gives respectable performance out of the box and needs little calibration.

Chimei monitors are amazing.

Blogroll links aint that wonderful :P but i’m not the admin… :P … Just Telling :P

A trivial question, but I still gotta ask (hehe): So I can use this directly with a PS3 via an HDMI cable, correct? Anyone tried this LCD monitor with a PS3?

pwede nman kayo umorder kung wala na sa baguio branch.. para sure, deposit ka ng 10% nung value ng order mo.. within a weeks time or less nanjan na ung lcd mo.

sadly wala na daw sila :(

the price of chimei 21.6″ lcd in enigma hasn’t change. it’s still 7800 on all 10 branches..

gusto ko sana magpurchase ng isa…saan ako pwede..tagabohol po ako….may port ba to for connection sa computer or laptop…i will use this in my class sa school….hope to here from you soon…thanx

This is cool, glad that I came across to yugatech. WOnderful reviews. Am convince to get one.

I own a 95QD chimei lcd. is there a difference between my chimei and one discussed above?
i googled but find nothing.:)
thanks

For those Who judge this product by its name look at this link mga (brand conscious) di umano , Samsung is one of the leading manufacturer of monitors but guess what samsung is using Chimei’s LCD Panel ,I own one of this bad boy (Chimei 22QD)

wow thx again for the nice review for chimei!!
nakakita kc ako kanina ng 24″ na LCD!
magkukulong na talaga ako sa kwarto n2!
nyahahaha

Paano po iadjust yung brightness nung monitor? Kanina ko pa ginagawa parang ganun pa din.

wala po ba silang lcd tv? kasi i’m more into tv and plans to plug the cable also…

PC HUB IS THE NEAREST AND AFFORDABLE PLACE TO BUY A LCD MONITOR LIKE CHIMEI…I SAW IT WHEN I LOOK FOR A LCD MONITOR…LOCATION IN GILMORE QUEZON CITY.

gamit ko ngaun Chimei 22QD planning to have another 1 with the TV tuner in replacement for my 21″ 110watts Sharp TV.

hehehehe….

Nakabili ako kaya lng nagtawanan sa bahay ng parang natunog daw “Chimay” ang brand name.

hehehehe.

Does it have displayport?

I checked on PCTrends’ website and they have the Chimei CMV-222H-G. 22″ with 6-in-1 Card Reader and HDMI input. Panalo din sa features to a.

Anyone knows where this is sold? How much?

Well, the Chimei CMV-22QD is definitely worth considering though.

JP, available pa ba to now sa Enigma Angeles?

@Ezekiel

It’s available in some store in Gilmore.

Chimei LCD is a Big Bang for your buck. It has a very good price and quality.

I just got my new Chimei 22QD LCD at “PC Quarters” (No. V-341 3RD Floor Virra Mall, Greenhills Shopping Center — Tel. 721-10-51) today and very satified with the outcome. Since I will use mine (bigger-screen LCD) for a myriad of purposes, my Chimei 22QD works like magic as of now. I purchased my Chimei 22QD for its cheap price tag of P7,850 but I was so overwhelmed when this 21.6″ widescreen beauty gave me an uncompromising rich visual display (20000:1).

When we calibrated my new baby, my friends and myself were very impressed. The picture quality is head and shoulders above any LCD we’ve ever touched. Under the league of 22-inch LCDs, this one is an “amazing” item and can easily topple popular LCD brands like Samsung and LG. If for some reason, you prefer “value for money” Full HD 1920×1080 resolution this is the best one out there.

It runs cool and displays much more natural colors than I expected, this really meet my sky-high personal standards for picture quality. The image still looks great and razorsharp, with superior picture quality and lower price tag, to be had.

Again, Chimei 22QD is a great value when Samsung, Viewsonic Hanns.G and LG are sitting right next to it.

I went home MORE satisfied than my usual weekly hardware purchase when “PC Quarters” owner Mike throw in a FREE 2 GB Transcend USB Flash Drive when I paid them in cash. Btw, “PC Quarters” beat all the price posted on this LCD by major Computer shops in Metro Manila.

@Sir yuga
wow 40w. I’m buying.
@JP
lol thanks for the link. I didn’t know Enigma carried Chimei (was planning on getting a hanns G from them). Guess I need to look out more lol

@Jun: Here’s a regularly updated price list of Enigma’s retail.

I’m using a Wide screen Chimei 19′CMV 948D. I bought it last december and still working fine.

Sulit naman sya sa tingin ko.. cheap yet durable… hehehe..

@Reel Advice

Thanks for the enlightenment. Well, in times like these, buying an LCD monitor over a HDTV would be the more practical choice. Heck, with multi-port functions, I bet you can even hook your cable box into the darn thing.

Chimei has been the putative leader in monitor sales in Enigma the past year. Almost all households I had been into before I purchased my monitor use the Taiwanese brand.

Just an advice for those who haven’t upgraded to LCD and are planning to purchase one this year:

Don’t go for the 18″/19″ scales; the 22″ model will definitely make ends meet for your viewing pleasure and your budget.

ako meron nito http://www.trustedreviews.com/monitors/review/2007/11/06/Chimei-CMV-222H/p1

nabili ko sa enigma angeles pampanga, Php 8,200 lang
compare sa iba na mas mahal, brand name nalang halos ang binibili ,di sikat sa pinas itong chimei lcd pero sobrang sulit, 5 months konang gamit ok na ok.

abe pwede bang ikabit dyan yung hdx 1000? yung nireview mo kahapon.

do we have this in Manila already? this can function as a usual lcd tv right?

sorry newbie =)

If they have a smaller screen, it will probably fit on my TV shelf. 8k is to cheap even if the screen is of poorer quality but I bet quality is really good. But how dare they price it that low?

Ok ba yang brand na yan? I have other real deal here http://tr.im/lc9R

@Reel Advice
Does that monitor have PS3 Support?

I’ve tried playing the Wolverine Origins game on a AOC 22″ Monitor — the visuals are quite splendid.

I just wisher Asus/Acer would stop perching their prices so high.

this is very affordable and very nice to own, but is there any service center here in the philippines for this product?

hooray~~~
I’m proud to see Taiwan products here :-)

thanks Abe for the proper introduction here…

ayos toh! Fringe pa yung palabas!hehe

Doesn’t Samsung manufacture its own panels and aren’t they based in Korea?

Contrast ratios have varying meanings per manufacturer. One can mean native contrast ratio while the other can mean dynamic contrast ratio. I’m pretty sure this Chi Mei monitor is showcasing it’s dynamic contrast ratio.

Color reproduction of the AOC 22-inch is bad enough, is this one actually better for a MUCH lower price?

Any link to Samsung sourcing Chi Mei panels for their LCDs TV line-ups?
