Viewsonic VX2450WM-LED 24-Inch (23.6-Inch Vis) Widescreen LED Monitor with Full HD 1080p and Speakers - Black



I bought twelve of them for my digital arts studio. Overall I am very happy with them and even happier with the price they have excellent sales on Amazon.com.

Pros:
Solid image quality * very saturated and bright.
* Easy to use controls and disk controller (which may be required for optimum resolution on some computers)
* Indicator light a sexy little multi-colored below the screen changes from blue (en) amber (sleep) out.
* The sturdy adjustable stand easily adapts.
* Only the amount of "mate" end to annoying glare and "mirror" that some screens have without sacrificing the brightness and clarity.

Pros:
* Like most LCD screens, the colors change a bit with the viewing angle. If you are a graphic design or video editing shop with the requirements of demanding color calibration, buy an IPS (much) more expensive if you can show. (I could not afford a decent IPS screen, and this cheap monitor makes colors better than many screens "bargain" IPS).
* I think the (permanent) with large white lettering on the bottom of the bezel so boring, even though they stop noticing it after a while.
* The screen is really bright for most environments, even in broad daylight. I found the brightness to zero and is acceptable, but only because I never use the units during the night or in a dimly lit room. You may want to use the gamma correction software (like Adobe Gamma or the configuration of Windows 7) to darken the screen that controls only get the monitor.
* One out of twelve units that I ordered was dead on arrival. (Amazon quickly refunded my money.)
* Due to the touch controls on the corner of the screen, the screen shakes when used. There is a big problem (how often you use them anyway?), But a bit irritating.
* Please note that some older video cards may not support 1920x1080 resolution. This is not a problem with the screen, but make sure you have a suitable driver before upgrading any of the screens again!

Overall, I had a lot of shopping around and this is a bargain if you can get for under $ 200. I could not find anything comparable in quality at this price.
