Review on ViewSonic VX2478 SMHD Frameless Widescreen DisplayPort 2560X1440P: πŸ–₯️ An Immersive Visual Experience with Anti Glare and IPS Technology by Darrion Steen

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great 1440p monitor

Strengths: - No touchscreen gimmicks. Just your old-fashioned buttons - The speakers are literally invisible. I have no idea where they are but they are out there somewhere - No ghosting - Easy and quick to set up; Instructions are simple, no additional tools are required, and assembly takes only 10 minutes. - Calibration controls are simple. - 1 Mini Displayport cable included. - Mounting plate can be tilted/tilted forwards/backwards. Be careful, the mount is rigid. Ideal for games; The pixels are so small that turning on anti-aliasing would be pointless, and the difference is barely noticeable. In addition, the colors are rich and vibrant. Doom, ArmA III, Metro: Last Light and Far Cry 4 look fantastic. Weaknesses: - The panel is fragile and light; Be extra careful with the panel. It is so light that a moderate gust of wind can knock it over. - Slight backlight bleeding, but hardly noticeable when playing games or watching videos. Other comments: I've been using it for two months now, no problems so far. Calibration is critical for maximum performance. Also, the brightness is set to 100% by default and it's insanely bright, I had to turn it down to 35%. If you are on a budget, this monitor will not disappoint.

Pros
  • FLEXIBLE CONNECTION: The VX2478-SMHD supports laptops, PCs and Macs with HDMI 1.4, DisplayPort and Mini DisplayPort inputs.
Cons
  • Color balancing: If the colors on the display are not precisely calibrated, the display can appear washed out or too bright.
