Great monitor at a great price

I bought the monitor on Cyber Monday so the price was really good. I was planning to buy a 24 inch monitor but the price was so good it only made sense to buy a bigger monitor. We watch online videos from Netflix and Revain so it gets much better for us. Consumer Report Ratings Viewsonic rated highly in several categories so I knew I could trust the brand.

Very good monitor for the price

I bought this monitor a few weeks ago and absolutely love it! My eyesight isn't the best so the smaller 18" screen I had was way too small, but this 27" screen is amazing! It was very easy to set up. It came with plugs and such, but I only used plugs that were already connected to my computer. I just unplugged the old monitor and plugged in the new one. How easy is that!? I turned on the new monitor and cranked the screen % up to 150% and everything looks great! Websites are crisp and clear and

CRAZY TABLES ARE FRIENDLY!

WOW! Open a table on this monitor. You get a screen with _1500_(!) fat cells waiting for you to enter data. Or draw a diagram on it. More real estate than a Spanish land grant! And the pixels are so dense and bright! This monitor was worth every red penny I paid for it. Now I will never settle for anything less than 27 inches. ViewSonic are such a great monitor manufacturer, it goes without saying. You can't go wrong with their quality or performance. I've been using them exclusively for a few…

Better than I expected

This 27" Viewsonic monitor lives up to its description. It's crisp and clear. I'm very happy. Not only high quality, works with the highest resolution, but also a very reasonable price. It was delivered quickly and processed properly. out of the box This is my primary monitor. I used Viewsonic years ago and have forgotten how good they are, have used several other brands in the meantime.

You get what you pay for

This monitor is significantly cheaper than other monitors of the same size. It works, but it's not what you would call a "beautiful display" and suffers from a number of issues.1. Lighting is inconsistent - the bottom and top edges of the screen are brighter than the center.2. Flickering when not looking straight ahead or on completely white screens.3. Poor electrical shielding. It's handy for text editing, but I wouldn't recommend it for anyone working with graphics. As far as movies and games

Durable, excellent value for money for use with crowbars

Pros: - Very similar in quality to the previous ViewSonic VA2702W I had - There are holes to attach the bracket; works well with http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00358RIRC/ref=oh_o01_s00_i00_details - base now has tilt adjustment unlike VA2702W - good power saving feature same as VA2702W - works well with Mac OSX 10.5 via Snow Leopard and XP machine , via KVM http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0042FZ51I/ref=wms_ohs_product (had to add drivers from HDD to XP machine) - great for all day screen…

Great monitor for programming

I'm a software developer and I have two of these devices on my Mac at home. They offer plenty of space and a clear display for daily reading/writing of texts. I wouldn't recommend them to anyone who consumes a lot of media (although it's HD, the display isn't really that special) but for a regular work device they're definitely excellent.

no problems so far in my opinion

I got this monitor about a week ago. 1080 resolution is excellent. I also bought a DVI to HDMI cable from Amazon and connected it to my Sony Blue Ray. The picture quality is excellent and the screen size is perfect for my room. I'm about 10 feet from the screen when I'm sitting on my bed. I separate the setup in my room and transfer it to my gaming PC when I want to play. 27 inches is a good size for use as a TV and monitor. If it were bigger, it would be difficult to sit next to him. Overall…

That's my pride at the moment. I bought it to use at work. Since I stare at a screen all day for 8+ hours a day, I thought it was a good investment, and hell, it always was. Functionality: I use it for everything from web surfing to gaming and am completely happy with it. I'd say I'm a casual user so those who are more tech savvy might find a few glitches but for the most part this is a really good monitor. Aesthetics: That's why I deducted a star.

Good monitor in my opinion

The screen resolution is good and overall I'm happy with the monitor, the only downside is the warning message that pops up every time I turn on the monitor recommending different resolution settings! Otherwise I was very satisfied with the quality at the low price.

BIG small screen: my review

I bought it when they had a gold box of the day to replace my monitor so there was something to watch HD movies instead of a TV and computer monitor. It's a very large screen compared to a regular monitor, and with the gold box it was a great price - high resolution with a large screen for around $200 isn't bad at all. As another reviewer mentioned, the computer tends not to adjust to its native resolution, so a message usually pops up at startup, so it would be a good idea to change these…

The thing is huge! Good quality, great price

I don't know what people are complaining about. There's no noise, the picture is decent, very bright - I turned the brightness down about 30%, but it's still bright. The native resolution of 1920x1080 seems to fit almost as much as two 21" monitors! Me use it for photoshop and web design so can't comment on the quality of the games.Browsing the web I found that I use the zoom setting in the browser more than other monitors - I'm nearsighted so it's my fault not him Monitor It's just that there…

PLEASANT SURPRISE good for me

Without brand awareness, I was a bit skeptical. But I bought it because it got great reviews and the price was right. The monitor is amazing. The only thing I would change is to add a feature that lets you tilt it up or down. I simply put a wedge in front of the base to give it a better viewing angle. Keep in mind that it doesn't come with built-in speakers.

Great monitor at a great price

I wanted a 27" LCD monitor but didn't want to pay a lot - and still have a great viewing experience. This does what it takes. I'm sure you can pay twice as much and get a better screen resolution, but it's really great for my computer work. When I'm watching Netflix or DVD on my computer, this screen is just great too. You can adjust the angle (up or down) for the perfect viewing angle. the cheapest for a 27 inch monitor.

The Viewsonic 27-inch FHD 1080 widescreen TV is amazing

This monitor is great for compositing and streaming movies from Netflix and Revain Prime Instant Video. The price is quite reasonable. It's worth the price. Buy it! 27 inches is the largest size you can buy before moving on to monitors which are very, very expensive. John T. D'Alessandro, Philadelphia, PA.

Viewsonic VA2703 27 " Full HD 1080p widescreen LCD monitor.

I've been using this product for a few weeks. Everything OK. Bought for better visualization. There are some improvements, but not the biggest. For the price of a large screen monitor I have as a guest, I got my money's worth.

Great price: my review

This monitor is of great value. It was essentially the same price as many other 21-inch monitors. I don't hear any noise when reducing the brightness below 90, so I think another reviewer who had this issue had a bad monitor. including the DVI cable. Luckily I just replaced a broken Samsung and used the cable from that one.

Everything I hoped for

This is a great monitor at a great price. I don't design extensive graphics and use this monitor at home to surf the internet and play PC games. The colors are great, it's easy to set up and use, it has a large screen for easy viewing, and I haven't had a single issue with the monitor since I bought it about six months ago.

Viewsonic VA2703 27 " monitor

I bought a 27" Viewsonic monitor to replace the 24" Samsung on my family's second computer. Viewsonic appealed to me mainly because of the price. For a few dollars more I could buy a 27 inch monitor. The monitor has no height or tilt adjustment; although the stand is rotatable. There is a large amount of light transmission at the bottom of the panel. Monitor colors are acceptable for web surfing and flash games; I wouldn't want to use it for photo or video editing. All in all, this is a good…
