Great Monitor for a Great Price,
Just got it a couple of weeks ago and so far I’m very happy with it. The screen is bright and beautiful (LED technology) and it comes with an HDMI connection. And all the specs are good.
As always, the built-in speakers are completely useless – sound like crap (I still don’t get why they even bother putting it in). I gotta say the vertical viewing angle is not the greatest (looking up at the screen is slightly darker…looking down at it brighter). But then again it’s very much a standard for monitors in this price range.
In the end, there’s one thing you have to keep in mind: while it’s probably one of the very best monitors you can get for under $200 (if not THE)…it’s not exactly the best monitor money can buy. Having done my research, the ones starting $400-$500 range are basically in a different ballpark. So you pretty much get what you pay for. And in this case, for this price, you get PLENTY…in fact WAY MORE than you ever could before. So if you’re cool with not having “the best” for now…and need a good monitor for cheap – this is the one. For sure.

Inverse ghosting,
Type VE247H into google and one of the suggested completions will be ‘ghosting fix’. This monitor uses something called “Overdrive” to make the response time 2ms instead of 5ms. The result is ‘inverse ghosting’ — basically, black font on a white background will leave a ‘trail.’ The only way to fix this is to go into the service menu by holding the power button and menu button (while the monitor is off), then pressing the menu button again (once the monitor is on), and setting ‘OD’ to off. Sadly, this has to be done everytime you switch inputs or turn the monitor off. Very annoying, avoid the VE24x series at all costs. Asus has no fix for this nor any plans to remedy the situation.

Perfect for the price – ASUS VE247H,
I have been using it for a month. It is sharp, bright and color is great!
The initial setting is just too bright. There is a mode button to toggle from Standard, to Theater, to … . All of them are too bright.
I use the Standard mode, and change the brightness to 60%, and contrast to 60%. It is looking good now. Agree with other reviewer that the light is rather directional, but it is the same for most low end LCD monitors. When I am viewing and adjusting photos, I just have to make sure my viewing position is correct.
It is a great product for that price range.
