> 3 dayThis monitor worked just fine out of the box (had previously ordered an Acer which was awful and had to be returned). Easy set up, plug and play and plenty bright. Still figuring out how to make the image sharper (some options were grayed out, so not sure why) but fantastic for work (Im not a gamer). The only thing that is really bad is the stand it comes with. I am not mounting it to a wall and the cheap plastic stand is so flimsy that the monitor wobbles constantly as I type or if I lean on my desk. There is no reason for this - just cheaped out on the stand. The awful Acer had a plastic stand but designed well enough so there was rigidity structurally and even though it was literally twice as heavy, didnt wobble at all. Would give this 5 stars if it didnt wobble.

> 3 dayI bought one of these because I was tired of trying to read blueprints on a small monitor. I immediately was impressed with both the quality of the monitor and the brightness. The text is crisp on stream and video is smooth. The monitor is also extremely light weight and the arms on my display mounts have no issue holding them in place. My only complaint is that I had to buy a Display Port to HDMI cable as the monitor has no Display Port on it. The sound isnt great, but I dont use the monitor for sound. Overall, great monitor. Would recommend.

> 3 dayBought on sale for $99. Hard to beat that. The stand is a little too shaky. But good deal for an edgeless monitor.

Greater than one weekWe bought this monitor so that we can expand the number of work stations at home since everyone is working from home and kids are distancing learning. The first thing I noticed when we turned it on is that the screen is not very clear. It has a glare free covering in it which is fine but when my daughter brings up pictures for her photo editing, it’s clearly not very clear for graphics. Yes, this is listed as a business monitor but I was thinking maybe that meant the refresh rate is not like a gaming monitor. But when my wife used it for work she noticed right away that it isn’t very clear. The glare free screen kind of takes away the brightness too. One thing I was kind of disappointed in is that there are only HDMI ports. I would think at this point in our technology world all monitors would come with HDMI and DisplayPort. But again, maybe because this isn’t supposed to be a graphics intensive monitor. The last negative I would say about this monitor is that it has a pedestal stand so there is only one leg in the middle. This monitor is big so with one leg, the monitor rocks constantly. Every bump of the table, high intensity clicks of the keyboard, a lot of mouse movement, it made the monitor rock and sway a lot. It just seemed cheap and on the verge of falling down. If you will use a mount then that would solve the problem but it’s just not as good of a monitor that I was hoping for.

> 3 dayUsing this as an office monitor. Very crisp and bright. An excellent size for multi-tasking with multiple open windows. And the price was great.

> 3 dayI work in front of a computer every day and I have 3 screens. I used this one to replace an old dell monitor with a better resolution and it works great!

> 3 dayReplaced a nonworking ASUS with the monitor and couldnt be happier. I dont use it for gaming though. Its my middle mounted one in my office. I have my laptop, a 42 inch TV with an adapter this monitor and the 24 inch sceptre for my vertically mounted right side monitor. Colors are brite, refreshes fast, and turns on and off quickly! Highly recommend!

> 3 dayThe aux output does not work and the built in speakers are very low quality. Not worth the hassle to return it, so Im just stuck with monitor that has bad sound.

> 3 dayThe 27 DOES make a difference. The 75mhz DOES make a difference. Best buy for monitors.

> 3 dayNot using these for gaming so I cant comment on that, but the one gamer I have using this monitor was skeptical at first. For use as a monitor to review documents, browse the web, view photos and video we are satisfied. I was worried about installing these on a shop floor and having them work in the not so clean and rugged environment. But they have worked great since being installed. The users are happy with the size and being able to see them from further away, they are used to view prints and read instructions in a machine shop. The images are clear and crisp, and documents are viewable without issue. I will be purchasing more to install at other machines. Very satisfied with these monitors as a general use monitor.
