ViewSonic VA2212M LED 22 Inch LED Lit Monitor 1920X1080P, 75Hz, Wide Screen, ‎VA2212M-LED Review

I'm glad I got this for my new office. I use it with my laptop's analog VGA port and it looks really good. I can't say anything about the DVI quality. With my other Viewsonic LCD monitor, I had no problems with color matching. I also had to turn down the brightness. Viewing angles are good and some white light bleeding is normal when viewed from a steep angle compared to other monitors I have. Others have complained about this, but it's only noticeable in very dark environments. It tilts back…

I thought long and hard about which monitor to buy. Checking reviews is sometimes a good suggestion. I have to tell you that this ViewSonic monitor was a great purchase. I know some reviews scolded it for claiming it was on a stand, but I didn't notice any issues in that area. I have cats that climb all over my desk and they've never knocked it over or even made it wobble - even when chasing the cursor. As for the picture, it was definitely a good choice. The picture is great and I'm happy and…

I'm a software developer. At work I have some good 24" 1920x1200 that I use. If it weren't for the extra real estate on my work monitors I'd say it was just as good (screen quality). And those monitors are over $600 each I searched for a long time before deciding on this one and I'm very glad I did.My only complaint is that the base of the screen isn't very solid.It doesn't fall off but the screen shakes , when I type because the base doesn't fit the table exactly. If you want to mount this, no

This is a very good LED monitor. The picture quality is crisp, clear and sharp. You will definitely need to adjust the brightness as it is very bright out of the box. One thing that made me choose this monitor over others is the stand. It is very stylish and holds the monitor securely in place. The only downside is that the actual screen size is about half an inch smaller than my other 22 inch LCD monitor. But it's not bigger, 1920x1080 games are amazing! speaker function?

I've had my old monitor for over 10 years and it was starting to show some age so I started doing some research. A friend of mine has used other Viewsonic monitors in his shop and has great praise for them, so I've tested multiple monitors as well as HP, Acer, and Samsung. I stumbled across this monitor before there were any reviews so I kept an eye on it. When the price dropped during Cyber Week after Thanksgiving, I decided to buy it. I ordered it on Sunday and it arrived on Wednesday. At…

The large width means I can always see the launcher icons and gadgets, but the reduced height means everything is smaller than I'm used to. I have to put on my readers and get closer than I'd like. The speaker sound is thin. . . Not enough bass to hear music. The picture quality is excellent and it lights up "immediately". I had to turn the brightness down a lot so that it was more than sufficient for use in a brighter room. The monitor is great value for money; I just bought too quickly when…

There are no complaints about these monitors. Installation was easy, they were packaged very well, they were not damaged in transit. The picture quality is excellent and none of the monitors I have ordered have dead pixels. Installation was also tool-free, not even requiring a screwdriver to attach the monitor to the stand. The only downside I really have is the fact that this monitor didn't have a DVI cable, just VGA and it would be really nice if they had USB ports like some monitors do, but…

The screen is pretty good, but ours came with 1 dead pixel at the bottom. I do want to point out though that I bought it from Revain so it wasn't new but it still shouldn't have the deal pixel. I mainly use it for web and media and it gets the job done. I look at the video, the picture is just great, but the sound is rather weak. There are no quality issues, only full volume is not very loud. I wish there were USB ports somewhere, although I knew they weren't there when I bought it. This is…

I was hesitant to buy this monitor because others spoke of an unstable base, but in the end the low price convinced me. To be honest I don't know what others had in mind when they mentioned the unstable base. The one that came with mine is sturdy enough that I put it on top of the phone book and it barely wobbles when I shake the table (and most of it looks like it's more phone book related). . The only issue I have with the base is that it's not adjustable and it's not very high (hence the…

I like the size of the monitor and I like the anti-glare screen. However, I had to buy a new graphics card as the display was horrible when I first set it up and the new graphics card was supposed to fix the problem. After my husband installed the graphics card, the "recommended" resolution had a WAY too small font size. So he changed the setting to a MUCH smaller font size (one step up is MUCH too small). Any lower resolution and there was a strong distortion - horizontal stretching. I don't…

I bought two of these for a dual setup and so far they are great! I just hooked them up and they knew exactly what to do. The power indicator can be turned off, which is very convenient. The stands are actually quite sturdy, especially for the price range. Most of these cheap monitors come with crappy stands. They are incredibly light and very easy to connect. They come with a VGA and audio cable and of course a power cable. The size is perfect for me. I'm a graphic designer/web designer and I…

I use 30" monitors at home and have worked as a dual monitor replacement for several years (I'm an interactive media designer). Viewing such a screen from about 2 feet away became very uncomfortable (even blinding), and with the Spaces feature in OS X (and forgoing the monitor for the MBP at home and using a 15" screen) I found I could easily get the job done without such an awkward screen in front of my face. I have Got this monitor as a replacement and am very satisfied.Very sharp, only issue

The product is as described but this is my first monitor purchase that is not part of a desktop purchase and I was surprised at how small the screen looks. Before deciding on the screen size, I used a ruler to model how big the monitor would be compared to my previous small monitor. Thought it would be big enough, but it isn't. I think this is because the aspect ratio is so different from my previous one which was an old fashioned not wide aspect ratio. But since I use my laptop more often and…

I originally bought this monitor because I wanted two monitors and this was going to be my backup. But since I bought it, this has become my main monitor and my older one my secondary monitor. I mainly use this monitor for gaming, which I really like as it runs at a pretty high resolution and the 1920 x 1080p price is worth it when you look at the price of other monitors. I think what I wanted to use since I mostly use my headset are the internal speakers on top of the monitor, but since I…

I really wish I could say I love this product for the amazing price I paid for it ($139 including shipping from Revain), but it comes back. If you're like me scouring popular magazines/websites for customer reviews, reading reviews on Revain and elsewhere, I'll give you the highlights. 1) Stand NOT included. My desk (for better or for worse) is a 6 foot folding table (hey, don't laugh, it gets the job done). But the spot where the monitor sat on my desk was the most uneven spot. So I started…

The old Acer LCD 22 inch is dead. (I've since revived it by replacing the capacitors, but that's another story). I like the 22 inch size. It's big but not too big. Viewsonic has been around for a long time and I've always found their products to be pretty good. The picture is very good, no dead pixels. The stand seems pretty light, but I don't plan on carrying it around with me, so I don't care. The monitor is sharp and bright. I really liked my old Acer, but after fixing the Acer and putting…

I had an old 17 inch square LCD monitor that still works fine. So I was hesitant to buy this monitor with the new rectangular form factor that monitors are now offering. I was pleasantly surprised and found that the new form factor is actually very comfortable for surfing the web. Now I don't have to scroll the screen horizontally to see entire web pages. Also, this VA2212M LED runs VERY cool and uses less power than my old 17 inch monitor. If your PC has an HDMI output, I highly recommend…

I give all 5 stars here because I've never had such a good monitor! Due to the advertised dynamic contrast ratio, I had to turn the brightness down to 50%. it worked immediately and my Sapphire Radeon HD 7770 GHZ OC graphics card thanked me =))) no problems with it so far and so far so good, I think I got more than my money's worth! This monitor replaced my old Acer WD 19" LCD which was mysteriously burned out on mine. Also, the extra $40 I paid to FedEx for overnight shipping was worth the…

I bought this screen in addition to my other (slightly larger) computer monitor. I don't know much about the specs of the monitor, but the brightness is significantly better than my other monitor and the images are much brighter. I think I saw another reviewer on here who said the monitor base isn't adjustable. This is not the case, the base is fully adjustable for up and down movements. Pros: Adjustable base Nice display Very affordable Cons: I bought a Revain Basics HDMI to DVI cable for this

We purchased 4 of these monitors along with 2 dual monitor wall mounts to replace mismatched monitors while freeing up desk space. My husband's two monitors are connected to their own digital inputs, while my old graphics card only has one digital and one analogue output. So one of my monitors is connected via the analog input. The monitors are easy to install and work very well with a recommended resolution of 1920 x 1080. Unfortunately, the monitor connected via the analog input shows strong…
