Hey everyone, I received a Eizo FS2332 monitor a few months back to sample. I really have enjoyed the product, so I wanted to write a review on it.
Here is some basic stats:
Size: 23" wide
Resolution: 1920 x 1080
Response time: 6ms
Contrast ratio: 1000:1
Brightness: 250 cd/m2
Color support: 16.7 million colors
Alright, now for my thoughts on the monitor! First off, prior to having the FS2332 I had a 24" Asus monitor I used. At the time, I thought that monitor was quite nice.
The first thing I noticed between the Asus and the FS2332 was the difference in the color quality. The colors on the FS2332 really stand out and are incredibly vivid. The main games I play are SC2, and LoL. I have had quite a few of my players over at the house from ItsGoSu ( the team I manage ) that have used the monitor as well. They all say the same thing, it almost makes SC2 look like a different game, because the colors stand out so well. The next thing I noticed is the amount of shear settings and options it has when I was configuring my settings. It comes with a very nice easy to use remote and all the settings are pretty easy to customize as well. The FS2332 also has a DVI port, 2x HDMI ports, and a D-SUB connector.
The platform the monitor sits on is very sturdy, it comes with a small tool that you use to actually lock the monitor into place. I know, there is no way this monitor is tipping over, as to where my previous monitor had a somewhat cheap base, and I have a fairly small desk.
Ending thoughts:
I would recommend the FS2332 to anyone, the color quality and picture quality is actually incredible. Its sturdy, it comes with a ton of nice features, and for me the 23" size is awesome.
Also, another really important reason I would recommend this monitor to anyone in esports, is Eizo supports E Sports. They sponsor the NASL, Dreamhack, and a few teams. To me this is also very important, I like supporting companies that help support the industry I am so passionate about.

Cool! Give me one! I've got two tiny acer monitors right now which are fine, but I'm going to be shopping for something slightly larger soon.

<3s for buying Eizo. They're one of NASL's primary sponsor, and they also sponsored HomeStoryCup. Love these guys and support them every chance I get.

A monitor is one of the last pieces I need to upgrade for my rig, have been thinking about Eizo due to the sheer amount of love they give eSports as well as a good reputation for quality. Quick question, is 23" the standard size for most tournament monitors? I'm running a 21" at the moment, before that a 19" tube, so 23" seems almost "too big". I'm sure I'd get used to it eventually, thanks for the review nonetheless! Definitely swaying me to save up and splurge on a quality monitor.

I think some events might even use a 24", but Im not 100 percent positive on that.

I used to have a 19" monitor and then changed for a 23". Trust me, you will quickly adapt =) Plus, EIZO's monitors are great!
