> 3 dayI bought 3 of these for my at home job as my old set up was giving me a headahce (different screens mix matched, different resolutions, sizes, etc). set the blue light filter on these and set the brightness and its comfortable to work at my desk all day now (as far as monitors go)

> 3 dayI wasnt looking for anything fancy---just a larger monitor so I can work from home 1 day a week. This came with its own HDMI cable, it was very easy to hook up. The display is excellent the size was perfect! The picture transfers very well from my laptop to the monitor w/o any special sizing needing to be done.

> 3 dayTwo year in with a pair of these hooked to a Mac mini. It has been an adventure. The Mac and these have intermittent issues. The monitor settings are hard to adjust. The price is right, dont forget that.

> 3 dayI ordered the monitor and even got a replacement monitor but both of them had pixel problems. The first had 2 pixels that wouldnt show green while the 2nd replacement had a singular fully dead pixel. While gaming I dont notice the pixels, but watching videos or browsing the web it becomes painfully obvious due to the fact that when the screen goes white these things really pop out as purple or black dots on screen. The pixels aside its a solid monitor with great response time and image quality, I cant fully recommend this monitor due to having gotten 2 different screens that have noticeable dead or defective pixels.

> 3 dayPros: Huge! Matte screen lots of inputs. Slim bezel, Mine came with a DVI to HDMI cable, no HDMI Cons: Buttons on the back. Power adapter is a wall-wart. Stand a bit wobbly My biggest issue with this monitor is the buttons being located on the back. If using multiple of these ( I have 2 side-by-side in landscape) the buttons are a pain in the ass to use. I use one as dual purpose for a PC and RPI. To switch inputs is an exercise in contortion if you use the left monitor as I do. I would have preferred them on the bottom edge but I have the feeling this was done so these screen could mounted in portrait with multiple monitors. If the buttons had be arrange horizontally instead of vertical this would be less of an issue. The power brick that comes with these monitors is the wall-wart kind where the plugs are on the brick. I would have liked to see a brick with a short pig tail like a laptop brick so less outlet space is taken up. the cable is plenty long enough however. The stand was super easy to attach and in the future I expect it to be just as easy to remove should I need to. However it is a bit wobbly at the point where the stand attaches to the monitor. Though I attribute that to it being such a large monitor and there will be some flex no matter what. It is by no means excessive. Some day I may buy monitor arm so its great that there is a vesa mount option. I so far I love these monitors. The brushed look and matte screen make them look very clean. For anyone concerned they would look very smart in a business setting. These are the first screens Ive bought brand new for personal use and I have no complaints. I use my PC for coding, 3D CAD, Wed surfing, movies/Youtube and some light gaming and everything looks great. They are supper bright. I may attempt to do a color calibrating but Overall Im happy with the current setting. I did change to the Movie setting with bluelight shift 30%

> 3 dayCan’t speak to gaming; picture quality seems pretty good so may work fine for that. However, i purchased two for work from home setup and letters in Outlook and Word lack clarity and its noticeable and i tried many adjustments, including sharpness (which has only 0, 25%, 50%, 75% or 100% vs 0-100 for all other adjustments.. This is not totally unexpected due to size vs resolution, but what makes it much less tolerable is after one day each monitor has a dead pixel. I guess these arent bad for the price point, but understand these aren’t going to be perfect, especially if used for work. Update: changed rating from 3 stars to 4 because on one monitor the dead pixels were actually stuck and by rubbing the screen I was able to unstick them. On the other monitor, I was within the 30 day window for Amazon and they exchanged it for me. Thank you Amazon! Hopefully no new pixels will get stuck or go dead.....

> 3 dayThe speakers were worse than I expected even for budget monitor speakers. Both my laptop speakers and the old Vizio TV I was using for a monitor sound better. The monitor is also making a high pitched sound depending on what is displayed on the screen. I havent been able to determine if it is because the speaker circuit isnt filtered well or if its coming form another component inside the screen. Still, the picture is very good and honestly for the price Id buy it again. Id just opt for the model without a speaker and pick up a cheap little soundbar or something.

> 3 dayIm currently got my Chromebook hooked up to it and you do have to learn how to doggle through the unmarked buttons. Right to left I believe they go one through six or one through five we have to toggle or toggle between HDMI and vga. Once you figure that out, if you play audio on the TV by itself, it doesnt sound so good. If you play the audio from a computer or Chromebook hooked up to the tv, I cant explain how but it sounds incredible. Its like I added a 27-inch screen to my chromebook. Its not completely plug and play cuz you still have to press buttons on the Chromebook and thats alternate plus one of the top buttons usually the fifth button over from the left on top you got to press those two together. As far as the TV the button on the far right in is the power button. That only needs to be pressed once because once it receives a signal it turns itself on. And that is a plus in the long run. Hooking up a Playstation 2 you got to jump through a few more hoops but it can be done as well if you use the VGA serial connector. But, to use that, you must first hook up something with HDMI so you can rotate the screen over to vga. you better have the PlayStation on when you do this because it will revert to HDMI within 5 seconds if it does not receive a signal from the VGA. You got to have that PlayStation 2 up and running/ updatede PS2 fix! Get the PS2 HDMI converter with the power for USB... works better than the RCA cables :)
