Viewsonic VX2258wm Review

 

With the widespread adoption of touchscreen displays, we figured it was only a matter of time before our desktop displays got in on the action. To that end, Viewsonic's VX2258wm is a solid enough, if unremarkable, touchscreen monitor with 21.5-inches...

Menu UI is dated and unintuitive, lacking in features

Just Ordered for Windows 8

 

Why would someone think that touch screens would work with XP? The technology is relatively new.I bought this to feel the entire Windows 8 experience, without havign to give up my Android Tablet which I love!

I currently have Windows 7 and ordered it to work with Windows 8

Does not tilt as well for touch screen typing...Buy an Arm that tilts

A good screen but not the best

 

Not surprising, with the varying types of MT displays, capacitive, resistive, etc, it isn't apparently a true MT screen because of the first con I listed, but for any piratical use including drawing or text-input, using it for photo albums and image...

Big 22" diagonal screen (Marked as 21.5", but 22" according to the box) ; Bright colours and good contrast ; Affordable as far as touch-screens are concerned ; Fingerprints aren't always able to get on the screen

Not a true "multi-touch" screen, only accepts 2 simultaneous points according to Windows tablet features ; The included software is virtually useless, and you'll just end up using the OS calibration tools

Excellent for my application

 

Completely accurate touch function with my application. Screen presentation is bright and clear; colors are nice. I use the touch screen monitor with Hauptwerk Virtual Theatre Organ and the Paramount 320 Theatre Organ

Non that I have discovered

Touch of Class

 

Stop returning products and raising the costs. Things use to be cheap here 8 years ago, until a lot of people like this started coming along.

Since when did Windows XP or Vista support touch screens ; These people should be shot. These 12 o'clock flashers should stick with MACS

So you think other touchscreens support non Windows 7? Why bash Viewsonic if you have no clue ; Only if you have specialized software, such as a register at resturants and retail stores

Beautiful and responsive

 

Big and Beautiful picture. Very responsive to touch

None with the monitor itself. It took a little while to get things set up right with Windows....but that's a Windows issue. And it wasn't too horrible to get set up properly

MUST HAVE WINDOWS 7

 

Nice screen and design as you would expect from Viewsonic

This is not a true touch screen. You MUST have Windows 7 or it WILL NOT WORK. There are no work around. If you are looking specifically for a touch screen don't buy this monitor. Buy and Elo or Planar

good, not great, but cheap

 

multi-touch is glitchy but great picture and good price. you decide if its worth it to you.

low price, 1080p, and glass-front screen. works with fingers or a stylus (or a pen with a retracted tip). good image quality. works with windows 7 and kinda works with ubuntu 10.10 but clicking in ubuntu doesnt quite function correctly. hopefully they...

cant use ubuntu with it :( . And it senses touch with 2 "cameras" in the top corners so sometimes with multitouch it gets glitchy and mixes up the X and Y between the 2 touches and since the grid is diagonal if you have 2 horizontal touches sometimes...

I can read

 

Everything says "windows 7 certified". Even power cables say that, It doesn't mean that is ONLY works with windows 7. Companies put such and such certified on products so that less knowledgeable people will buy whatever it is. My coffee cup is coffee...

Only works with windows 7

ONLY WORKS WITH WINDOWS 7 ; Just so you know
