Review on ViewSonic VA2746MH LED Monitor with Office Inputs, 60Hz Refresh Rate, and Blue Light Filter (Model: VA2746MH-LED) by Michael Morris

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Terrible key configuration, lousy speakers

I used to have a 23 inch monitor that lasted 9.5 years so this time I bought a 27 inch monitor. The buttons here are just TERRIBLE. Install them once and PAR them so you never have to touch them again. You literally have to lay the TV on its back to see the buttons and labels. Right now I'm trying to find the volume buttons and the only thing I can find is the blue light filter setting. Also, the labels on the buttons relative to the direction on the screen are reversed with the actual position of the buttons. And the power indicator doesn't come out of the ON/OFF button like in previous versions. You have a fish under the monitor, turn the monitor on and off by touch. Speaker? I'm not sure if they work consistently and when they work they sound awful. Significantly worse than the 23-inch models from 10 years ago. I can only receive audio via HDMI because Windows 10 doesn't support my normal audio output. But half the time I have no sound. Now I have to fiddle with the knobs again to see if I somehow turned off the volume in the monitor itself. I need to tidy my desk so I can put the monitor down and find the volume controls first. Wish me luck - I'm you, like me, wish you'd bought something else.

Pros
  • Great for everything. Nice pic. I have 2 of them at home for work.
Cons
  • Inadequate customer service
