Nice little monitor

5 stars because it meets all my requirements. Pros: - Very easy to use and set up (thanks to Windows 10) - Extremely light - Reasonable price - Bright - Decent color reproduction - Decent resolution Cons: - HDMI is a bit short so you might have to buy a little longer, but I was able to get by. - VESA mounting screws are not included. $1 at my local hardware store so no big deal. - The viewing angle in portrait mode (rotated 90 degrees) is quite odd: half the screen seems brighter than the…

In the world of $250 monitors, this is a good $100 monitor.

what do you say cheap Yes. It works out? Yes. Do I have a second monitor for my workplace? Yes. It's fantastic, not necessarily, but it'll get the job done if you just want more screen real estate and don't really care about image quality. The resolution is good, but don't expect 4k just because it uses HDMI. It's a few light years better than the 19-inch TV we had in college, but it doesn't measure up to the decent TVs in our living room. Sound from the built-in speakers is okay at best (no…

The perfect desktop monitor for the price

Bought for my desktop and although it's only 20 inches it meets my needs. I love that it has its own volume control and two (2) HDMI inputs as well as audio in and out, and it has an older VGA input if you have an older computer that requires that connection.

Great buy for the price

I needed an extra monitor for work, not gaming. Now that I'm working from home, I miss my old screen-spitting office machine. Screen quality is great, perfect size and I can install it. I haven't played games with it, but for anyone looking for an additional budget monitor I would highly recommend it.

Excellent picture, color and clarity, good monitor

This is a really nice little monitor. I wasn't expecting much from a budget monitor at a rock-bottom price, but I have to admit I'm pleasantly surprised. In fact, there are no downsides in this price range. Pros: 1. Very clear, crisp screen for a 1600x900 display. Has a better picture than my new HP 1920 x 1080.2 monitor. Very good standard color saturation - does not wash out at all. I didn't feel the need to adjust the color or brightness settings.3. Good writing clarity and sharpness.4. It…

Good for the price in my rating

It's definitely good quality for the cheap price. The graphics look very smooth and the only problem I have is that they appear a bit foggy. It's not easy to tell, but the colors seem a little less vibrant than they should. otherwise it's almost perfect.

Not what I expected

For a number of years I had an Acer that would turn the monitor on and off. That's why I bought this one, it seems smaller, although I was glad they had speakers, the sound range is very poor. sounds worse than the old radio. I'm considering ordering a different model and returning this one, but set up was easy and I really appreciated that. Fewer cables than before.

A great low-cost option for remote work.

I bought this for work from home almost a year ago and it didn't disappoint. Outstanding picture and sound quality, light weight and easy to transport. I flew it across the country in my hand luggage so I wouldn't have to travel without it. I use it for creative projects, film streaming and working from home. I will buy a second one for a triple screen setup.

good monitor I am happy with the purchase

My old monitor was destroyed by Hurricane Yang and I bought this one. That's great. Easy to assemble. Easy to set up. This is a good buy.

Good monitor BUT. in my rating

The picture quality is excellent, but the built-in speaker is terrible. Don't throw away active computer speakers just yet, you're going to need them.

AMAZON SUSPENDED ME in my review.

Outstanding video quality

The picture quality is excellent. I use HDMI. Monitor connected and working. Hooked it up to my graphics card and booted it up and it's been working great ever since. It's a small picture, but that's all I need. I needed a new monitor and didn't have much to spend. This one fits that bill.

Excellent value for money for me

This monitor is exactly what I needed. I have a 13 inch Macbook screen and wear bifocals which makes it very difficult to see. I needed a bigger screen so I could read articles and see photos and videos clearly. This monitor has excellent picture quality and color reproduction for the price. The screen is VERY bright and I had to turn the brightness down to 25% to suit my comfort level (not bad as it's a great thing on a bright sunny day). generally very loud but it's ok if you don't have…

This is a monitor, it works and is perfect for my small space.

This monitor is great if you have a small space that can't accommodate a larger monitor. My main reason for getting this is because my old one was, well, old (2007). It wasn't really mine, it was a family member's monitor, but it was so dirty and ugly. There were small stains all over the screen that could not be removed, and the outer frame of the monitor was bent. In the end I decided to just buy a new one and leave the old one alone. Surprisingly this is the first monitor I have bought as…

Excellent at the sale price

A good sized monitor with a clear picture. Only use for work purposes and it does the job perfectly, it's bright and clear. I can't comment on videos and games I don't use for them. But great for email and work purposes and price

only for work from home

simple monitor for work. The monitor has two HDMI ports, but if I'm working from home I need to buy a power adapter so I can use 2 screens with my work laptop. I returned it for a larger screen size.

Good monitor at a good price

I use it to play movies in my RV. A very good monitor for the price. My only complaint is that when the VESA mount was added, the second HDMI port was blocked so badly that the cable couldn't be connected.

Good enough! to my rating.

It s cheap…. What did you want? The picture is fine and I don't find it sloppy like a lot of these people do. The only thing that confuses me is that the volume hardly changes after 30. But this is such a cheap monitor, what's the difference? Got this to make a portable Xbox gaming station to take with you on the go and it's amazing. I'll add some external speakers, but for the price you really can't beat it.
