ViewSonic VX2240w

 

ViewSonic's VX2240w is unwatchable at its factory default setting—the screen's brightness is cranked beyond the point of acceptable image quality. Fortunately, we were able to tweak the display's settings to produce an image that was at least similar...

Lifelike flesh-tones; no banding issues; good color saturation

Changing among color-temperature settings sometimes destroys contrast; terrible factory defaults

When you change its color temperature, the VX2240w is sometimes unable to produce its full range of dark or light contrasts. This sucks the quality out of a normal picture, but flipping the display on and off brings back normal settings. Still, it’s...

ViewSonic VX2240W 22in monitor

 

If you want to see which advances have been most significant in the flat-panels market over the past 12 months, you need only to look to the increasing correlation between PCs and home entertainment. And while ViewSonic has wisely eschewed the move...

Like many a recent ViewSonic, the VX2240w is a decent screen. But it’s not one that’s going to garner Gold Award status. The Samsung SM2232BW is better on quality, while the LG L226WTQ offers more value for money. All of which leaves the VX2240w with...

ViewSonic - VX2240w

 

There can be few IT markets as crowded as the one in which vendors compete to offer the ideal monitor for your PC. With the coming of HD to TV screens, DVDs and computer games, any ...

If you're moving up to HD viewing, and want a high resolution screen to watch DVDs and play high energy games with a top of the range graphics card, you could do a lot worse than this good quality monitor from ViewSonic.

ViewSonic VX2240W 22in monitor

 

While ViewSonic has wisely eschewed the move towards kitting out new flat-panels with a multimedia-friendly HDMI port, it couldn't resist jumping on to the dynamic contrast ratio (DCR) bandwagon with the ViewSonic VX2240W.

Like many a recent ViewSonic, the VX2240w is a decent screen. But it’s not one that’s going to garner Gold Award status. The Samsung SM2232BW is better on quality, while the LG L226WTQ offers more value for money. All of which leaves the VX2240w with...

Luck of the Draw

 

I'm impressed that Viewsonic answered my call with an American person at 2 am CST for customer support. Other than that they weren't very helpful in solving the actual problem.

Large screen area, nice native resolution, bright vivid colors, works perfect in Linux

My first one arrived dead. I called Viewsonic who confirmed it was dead. I next-day-aired it back to Newegg (At my expense) and didn't receive a replacement for 13 days ; My replacement arrived with a cracked front bezel. The return process took so...

Fantastic Value!

 

Make sure your workstation will accommodate this flatscreen. The hutch for my computer desk just barely allowed the LCD to fit.

Great product! Another member of the fine ViewSonic family. This is the only LCD flatscreen that allows me to not need my darn reading glasses. those out there with older eye like me will be VERY pleased with this product for sure! And NewEgg always...

Anything can always be cheaper but for the money you get a great value

Worked for a litte bit

 

I RMA'd this through Viewsonic, and they were very helpful, they cover return shipping(but not the cost of shipping it to them) Other than the issue above, it has been a great monitor for my client.

Good design ; Sharp images ; 2ms response time

Screen flickered periodically, then full white screen after a few months

Got Rid of 15" Dell

 

What an improvement from my old Dell 15" flat screen that had started to leak around the edges.

Fair price for what you get. Great colors, ultra HD makes a great device to watch DVD movies on

Box was damaged in shipping but monitor was fine

Screw Dynamic Contrast

 

Sleek design, fast 2ms response

Dynamic contrast for the monitor is one of the most flawed feature I've ever seen in a monitor. It makes the pictures look blurry and whenever I'm watching a movie with it, it looks so horrible. It wouldn't turn off (turns back on whenever a program is...
