Greater than one weekWe have 20-30 of these throughout our business and they all pretty much work really well. They have 3 inputs which is nice because we have a lot of different model PCs with different video connections it makes it easier to match it up with different PCs The quality is just fine for office work, easy to mount, and seem to be lasting.

> 3 dayFor the price, the picture is nice and I have no dead pixels. However, the sound is so dismal that were it not for the deeply discounted price I paid, I would return it. It is sad to say it would not be an exaggeration to say the sound is _literally_ no better than a string attached to a tin can; (really... literally). It is is _that_ bad. For that reason, I decided to not use the HDMI cable from my computer to the screen; (which, when used, give you no choice but to use the internal tin-can-speaker system). Instead, I attached my Digital DVI cable between my computer and the Viewsonic Display, which allowed me to use an external speaker. I was previously using my (20 year old) top of the line Dell Display which had an optional sound bar attached to the bottom with two small screws. I removed the sound bar and now have it laying behind this Viewsonic Display. *NOW* the quality of the sound matches the quality of the picture. [Short Version]: If you must use this Viewsonic Display (or any Viewsonic model within this price range), along with an HDMI cable, be prepared for _horrific_ sound in which my analogy of a string and a tin can is extremely accurate. The problem with using HDMI is that you have no choice but to use the internal tin-can sound system. NOTE: I tried a few of the Viewsonic models in this price range. Apparently, anything under $150 gets you a string and a tin can for a sound system. It truly is pathetic, and were it not for this issue Id give the Display 5 stars... especially for the price.

> 3 dayUpgraded since my 19 viewsonic finally died after 15 years. Picture is amazing, clear and enjoyable for my gaming. 75 mhz refresh is sufficient for what i do, both office work and games.

> 3 dayDecent monitor for the price. However, the power button location makes this monitor practically useless. The power button is located in the middle of the monitor on the BACK. YUP in the middle, not on the edge or tucked just behind the edge. NOPE, almost directly in the middle of the back. So if you plan on mounting this unit on a wall mount. Forget about it. No clue what designers were thinking.

> 3 dayGood picture quality. Im using this as a third monitor on my triple monitor stand on my desk, but using it now just as a TV. I wanted to have all three monitors match in size and style. I have no complaints about the monitor itself, but the speakers are too weak to be used for a TV or for gaming. Also, the controls are not very intuitive, and the monitor does not come with a remote. You have to push a couple buttons to get to the volume control, then you have to manually exit out of the menu. Like I said, Im using it as a TV, which is not really what a straight monitor is for, so these complaints might not apply to everyone. Thats why I still gave the monitor four stars. For the price, the picture quality is great. But the speakers are weak and the button controls are not very intuitive, no matter what youre going to use this product for.

> 3 dayGood screen, well built, good sound. However, older LED TVs do one thing better. At least for me. They used to MUTE the speaker if you had headphones plugged in, so the sound was there automatically for me when I put the headphones on. Seems a humane thing to do, since I turn it on late at nite, and dont want speakers blaring for even a second while my wife wants to sleep. TODAYS TVs including this Viewsonic do it differently: They ASSUME you have a SOUNDBAR if you have something plugged into the headphone jack. Then, you get no sound WHATEVER until you wake up the soundbar too. Universal remote controls can run a TV and a DVR device simultaneously, but NOT A THIRD DEVICE [the now obligatory soundbar]. VERY annoying. As a side issue NOT related to this very nice TV, I now have so many control wires running between my many devices, I better not have a house fire, because theres no way for the insurance company to figure out what went wrong and pay a claim. Id have to sell the wreckage to a copper recycler.

> 3 dayThe picture overall is quite amazing. Had to set the brightness and contrast to 50 / 50 at set up because it was blinding when first turned on. The darks and brights are great. HOWEVER... there is a very annoying back light that beams through on the right side. Since I do a lot of graphic and video editing, I need t see everything for what it really is to properly do my editing and color corrections, etc. This will be useful as a side monitor to just use for side stuff but for a main monitor, not good for what I do. Update: Amazon is amazing! Called about the issue and in less than a minute they put in to ship for a replacement and was done! 2 days later got the replacement and the image is amazing. A great monitor! Amazon... thank you for the best customer service on the planet!!!

> 3 dayBought this 3 years as a secondary monitor, and its still going strong. Its nothing fancy, but price wise, at the time it was great. Viewsonic has always done all right by me, will always buy their products. Highly recommended if it was 2019. Will use until it dies.

> 3 dayWhat I was looking for was a decent monitor with good blacks and clear text even when the brightness & contrast are turned up. I like a relatively bright screen, but I want my black background to look like the monitor is turned off. I use Photoshop for solely for fixing up photos of my kids, so Im not professional. I causally play FPS games once an a while, but Im not hard-core. I mostly use my machine for coding, word documents, etc. I had the following monitors hooked up all at once: an Acer K242HL-LED, an ASUS VN247H-P and the View Sonic VX2452MH. They are all the same price range give-or-take a fist full of dollars. The Acer was terrible. The blacks were mostly gray and the text looked terrible. The ASUS was much better than the Acer, but it was hard to get good blacks and good contrast. I spent some time messing around with the settings but never had a satisfactory configuration. I was about to write how bad the ghosting is and was surprised it was so bad on a 2ms monitor -- particularly bad when you drag a window around with dark text on a blue-ish background (think Office 2003/SSMS). Then I remembered seeing an option for Response Time in the settings. I just changed it from the default of Ultra Fast to Standard and there is no ghosting at all. The ViewSonic is not as nice as the previous version (which Ive paired this one with). The buttons for the OSD are physical buttons where as the previous version used a touch-sensitive bevel. The ViewSonic is by far the winner of these three and is a good buy once youve configured it correctly.

Greater than one weekIm using this with a mini PC that is mounted on the back of the monitor. I wanted to try my hand at animation and needed a reasonably good monitor. It is a good step up from my Chromebook. An unexpected surprise is that the monitor has its own speakers. They are not great but seem to work okay. The base for the monitor was easy enough to assemble (no tools required) and took only a minute or two to put together. There are several buttons under the right bottom edge of the screen, one being the the power button. Several cables are included; unfortunately, a HDMI cable was not included. I am satisfied with my purchase. Providing it doesnt die in the near future, it should be fine. Edit: I was having trouble with the volume buttons and adjusting the volume for the monitor speakers. After I downloaded the driver for this monitor, that problem went away. I advise downloading the driver from the ViewSonic website after receiving this monitor. It appears to be a necessity.
