Good inexpensive monitors

You won't find a cheaper 2K monitor on the market today. If you're on a tight budget, this might be for you. Shipping for me (to a major US metro area) took an estimated 9-15 days which was disappointing but they only shipped a few hours after purchase. and I received them two days later. The packaging was good and everything was very secure. The boxes show there are monitors inside, so consider taking them to a locker or a UPS store if you're having trouble with the package being stolen. The screen helps eliminate the bright light coming from the windows behind me. I have two computers connected to each monitor: a PC via DisplayPort (cables not included) and a MacBook connected via the included HDMI cables with USB-C dongles. The automatic input switching is intuitive considering I don't use computers at the same time. If I turn off or hibernate one and turn on the other, the monitors turn on and the inputs switch automatically. These monitors take a few seconds to wake up. Manual input switching doesn't have a dedicated button and you have to wade through horribly customized menus and control buttons to switch inputs manually. If you want to do this, you should consider a more expensive monitor. In terms of quality, the monitors are made of cheap plastic, which becomes clear when you touch and adjust them. Narrow bezels on the sides and top ensure excellent picture quality side-by-side or in surround sound. The included monitor stands allow you to adjust the height but not adjust the height. The VESA screws are on the curved part of the monitor base, which means you need a mount that allows you to rotate the monitor's angle to your liking. a new power divider to accommodate them. The cables are also a bit short and barely reach my monitor furthest from the plug, so cable routing can be difficult for some. I do appreciate the thinness of the power cord though. Overall, value for money here is excellent. If the issues I've highlighted aren't important to you, this is a great buy!
