Great value

Picture is very sharp and in focus, no glare or distortion moving my head around which is nice. I have many different monitors and I find this to be very acceptable. I like my screens towards the blue and whiter whites. This is not my maximal white,...

25" size, narrow bezel, speakers, VGA, HDMI and DVI inputs. Audio IN, Headphone out jack, real mechanical buttons to press. I had zero dead pixels. Very clear text on my PC, excellent for reading and typing, document work. Decent colors. Tilting stand....

No VESA mount. Speakers are a little under powered and tinny.

Great Monitor for the $$

Others have complained about the stand being flimsy, I think they are being way too critical and find the stands to be adequate. I used the original stands for about a month with no problems. I bought two monitors for a duel setup, planning to use a...

The size, resolution & price. The speakers are adequate. This model has VGA, HDMI and DVI inputs. The power supply is a separate unit but is only 1-1/2"x 1-1/2"x 3-1/2" and very light weight. The monitors were complete with all of the accessories that...

None so far and not expecting any.

Not bad, gets the job done.

Would recommend if it's cheap/on sale otherwise I noticed that it doesn't line up too well with other monitors (on stand) , but doesn't concern me too much, oh wells.

Not much to say - great monitor - great value (got it on sale) - No frame around it - Slim

-Eh speakers but I don't even use it so doesn't matter.

I've never had better monitors in my life

I do highly recommend this product, and especially if you want to use em as dual monitors.

IPS 25 inches Cheap Great warranty

Viewing angles vertically ^ can be a bit off, and viewing angles horizontally can be a bit off. That is disappointing for displays like this, but you get what you pay for in regards to that.

Great value

Great picture Great value Easy Setup

The speakers are lackluster at best, they are noticeably worse than typical TV speakers or even laptop speakers. However, I knew this at the time of purchase and planned to use speakers only on rare occasion. For this they function just fine but don't...

Average

If you want something that is cheap and has a good picture it's a good buy, but it has some comprises. The bevel cheat is especially annoying.

Nice display, good colors, good price

The bevel is tiny... but they're cheating as the pictures ends before reaching it. The stand is pretty cheap and not really adjustable in any meaningful way. The speakers are pretty weak on the low end, very little 'bass' to the sound

Just splendid.

Your mom called and told me that if you're considering to get a monitor to tell you this is a good choice.

I prefer this to the 23" gloss finish Acer that I have. The matte finish in no really noticeable way interrupts the color depth, richness, or blacks and whites produced by the monitor. Nice size, slim bezel.

None, really. Maybe the blacks aren't as deep as the gloss 23" I have, but still better than the 39" Vizio television that I was using.
