I like them bigger!

I've been using a 24" monitor with a 16:9 aspect ratio for a long time and I love the size. However, this trend towards short and wide monitors is driving me crazy. This ViewSonic breaks this trend and offers us a 16 aspect ratio :10 which I think is great. Extra vertical height is welcome. I really like the extra real estate it offers compared to my 24" 16:9 monitor. I appreciate that ViewSonic has built in a lot of positioning options - adjustable ones Tilt, rotation, height and orientation…

DisplayPort stopped working after 6 months

These monitors are not very good. They last about 6 months before DisplayPort stops working. Their HDMI ports aren't much better (they add about 3 months to the lifespan). I bought 3 (paid 599 at the time). Viewsonic replaced all 3 in the last year but this will void the warranty. After 6 months the new ones stop working and for now they don't do anything about it. They are also extremely susceptible to static electricity. They are poorly insulated and will flicker if there is static…

I think suits my needs

I use ViewSonic at work, mostly for spreadsheets, power points and the like. Luckily our IT department set it up for me, so I can honestly say the setup was painless! Seriously, it only took about 5 minutes if that, and some of that time was spent making the tech jealous of my shiny new monitor. I like the monitor because it's big enough to see clearly even in a meeting situation. where I need multiple people to have access to the information I'm trying to share. Very convenient. Conclusion…

Pleasing to the eye with lots of detail

This is an excellent monitor, bright and super sharp. One screw to install the stand is very simple. I'll admit that it's almost impossible to actually see the control buttons, but once you see them, they work perfectly. It seems much easier on the eyes. What really amazed me is the detail I can now see that I had never seen on my old monitor. (Dell U2412). It comes in a nice packaging, very light. The driver disk was at the bottom of the box - hidden for some reason. It comes with a USB…

Nice bright clear monitor

Nice bright clear monitor. Like the extra height in resolution. I don't take photos or anything so I'm easy to please, but this monitor works great. I've been a fan of ViewSonic since the early 90's and they never disappoint. speakers on this shit. I wish they had stopped putting speakers in the first place, not worth it, but that's not why I bought them, hence five stars.
