Good monitor in my review

I upgraded our office computers to dual monitors but didn't have the budget to upgrade all the monitors. It was exactly what I had, and even when I used it, it was indistinguishable from what I already had.

Nice picture I think

If you're still using older hardware and need a monitor that will work with a VGA port, this is a good choice. It doesn't have sound, of course, so remember that if you're using VGA you'll still need external speakers.

Good value for money

Monitor arrived quickly and well packaged. It works great but it was smaller than I expected. For this reason I returned it. This isn't the company's fault, it's my inability to judge the size from the display. Revain made the return process so easy and I appreciate their willingness to make this issue so painless. Thanks.

Very happy with my used monitor

This monitor was just what I needed when my old monitor failed. It doesn't look used and I'm very satisfied. Thanks for attention.

just right for a laptop or old computer with a dead screen

It's the perfect color monitor for hours of work without squinting. We're using it on an old computer with a bunch of files that we've never moved. But it would also be good for a "too small" computing device. Very good color and pixel registration.

Can't complain: my rating

He was pretty good until he exploded. Took about 2-3 years. It should have taken longer but only $22 who can complain? good for my 2nd screen, just forgot it was taller than my wide screen.

So far, so good!: my rating

For a refurbished monitor I had no problems. The screen is clean with no scratches or dead pixels. The frame has scratches, the monitor is used.

Not so crispy in my rating.

This is a decent monitor. I got my hands on it and it definitely won't be my first choice. I use it as an external display for my 13" MacBook Pro and the difference in quality between the two is quite noticeable. The laptop's screen is crisp and colors are vibrant. Dell colors are disabled and it's not possible to use the screen for Calibrating Apple standards, the image is grainy, the screen isn't wide and it has the same number of vertical pixels as my laptop.

Great purchase!: my review

This was my first walk in Revain's 'used territory' and it worked very well. The monitor arrived looking brand new. Everyone thinks it came with the computer. And after a few months I still have no complaints. If it breaks today, I'll justify my money.

little damaged and worn but fair price

There were a few spots on the screen that couldn't be removed and a pixel was burned out, for the price it's ok but it wasn't new.

41/2 STARS. It's a bad square.

I bought it refurbished but nothing is used. The colors are bright and clear. It's as useful as, if not better than, my HDTV. Good product. No problem. Fast reaction time. The only negative is that once you get used to everything that's on the wide screen, that square display takes some getting used to. I haven't yet.lol.
