    This review is from: Viewsonic VG2236WM-LED 22-Inch (21.5-Inch Vis) Ergonomic LED Backlit Monitor with 1920×1080 Resolution – Black (Personal Computers)

    Purchased this to replace a 20″ Viewsonic LCD that had led a tough life but always delivered.

    +5 The increased real estate on the desktop (both virtual and actual, since I wall mounted it) is like night and day.

    -2 It falls juuuust short of 2 web pages or 2 document windows side-by-side and I’m now hooked on the idea. When I bought it, I had chickened out on the 24″ because it seemed like it would be too much, but now I wish I had just gone for the 24″. I think this one is going to the hubby and I’ll be back for the 24″ in a couple of weeks.

    +10 Crystal-clear display

    +10 Colours are rich and vivid. I don’t do graphics, but they sure look nice on the screen.

    +10 Spreadsheets – you just can’t get too many rows and columns on screen at once! Spent seven hours in a big workbook today, and no eyestrain at all. I think I would have liked to use a slightly lower resolution to make things a little bigger than the native 1920×1080, but it looked awful and very blurry. After 2 days with it though, it’s working out just fine.

    +3 The speakers are, as most have noted, pretty tinny. But I don’t play music on my computer; I just serve it from there. If purchasing for an non-audiophile, they are perfect. I refuse to put something else on my desk that collects dust so the integrated speakers are a must-have, and they’re plenty fine for system sounds. If you already have speakers, there’s a version of this monitor that doesn’t have them. I think that even if I did use other speakers, it’s a nice feature to have around just in case.

    +7 Matte finish on the frame, and anti-glare on the screen. I nixed many similar monitors because of the piano finish alone. Who thought that putting a high-gloss black finish on an electronic device (my sony blu-ray for example) was a good idea? At least this finish is ‘less’ of a dust magnet.

    +5 Excellent bang for the buck. Amazon’s price can’t be beat.

    Score: 48 out of 50. I will buy (the same, but bigger!) again (soon).

    This review is from: Viewsonic VG2236WM-LED 22-Inch (21.5-Inch Vis) Ergonomic LED Backlit Monitor with 1920×1080 Resolution – Black (Personal Computers)

    I was looking for three particular features in a monitor: (1) LED backlighting; (2) built-in speakers; and (3) flat black color, NOT glossy. I had just about given up, and then I saw the Viewsonic VG2236wm-LED.

    This monitor has all the features I was looking for, so I bought it. This is one of the few monitors on the market, perhaps the only one at present, that is NOT glossy black.

    The design of the monitor is well-thought-out and aesthetically appealing. With the 1080p resolution, the “picture” is extremely clear and crisp; the color and the uniformity are very good; the built-in speakers sound pretty good; and it’s easy to adjust (both display settings e.g., brightness, and mechanically, e.g., tilt, rotation of the screen).

    I should also mention that the monitor comes very well packaged.

    As it happened, I received the monitor missing one cable, a VGA cable (the other three cables were present). Luckily, it was easy to contact customer service on the phone, and I’m told that a VGA cable is already on the way to me; so it seems that their customer service department is also quite responsive.

    ********************

    Edit: I’m revising my review as I discovered something I don’t like about the monitor. I’m downgrading it from 5 to 4 stars, because the stand has an issue, and the documentation is lacking in that regard as well.

    The issue involves raising the monitor up a little bit so it can be rotated 90 degrees to go from landscape to portrait mode.
    There is a little wire key on the right hand side of the “neck” of the stand that has to be pulled out. But on mine I could not do it by hand, I had to use pliers, because the thing is under spring tension upward.

    The best way to do this is to push the monitor down by hand, to reduce the pressure on the key, and then try to pull the key out.

    The stand also has a little bit of annoying side-to-side slop when it’s in the down (landscape) position.

    Viewsonic needs to redesign the stand. An excellent monitor should not be paired up with a lousy stand.

    **************************

    Edit: My final solution to the stand issue was to buy a 3M Monitor Stand, model MS110MB. It cost me about $50. It’s an excellent stand, and although I at first thought the price was a little on the high side, the thing is robust and of high quality, and a perfect match for the monitor. It was a worthwhile investment that can be used with any monitor that has a 75mm or 100mm VESA bolt pattern.

    As far as the sound goes, there is no “hum”, and the speakers sound just like I expected them to sound – not bad – all things considered. The speakers are obviously not intended to deliver ultra high fidelity, @high power, they’re there to provide basic sound for people who just want basic sound – without cluttering up the desktop with speakers, more wires, and a power adapter.

    This review is from: Viewsonic VG2236WM-LED 22-Inch (21.5-Inch Vis) Ergonomic LED Backlit Monitor with 1920×1080 Resolution – Black (Personal Computers)

    I purchased this monitor because I do not like the X series monitors that Viewsonic is creating otherwise. Unlike those ones this monitor does not have the piano style finish on the bezzel and no annoying blue flashy lights while it is on. It has DVI, but no USB ports, which I had to modify my workspace to go without, although it was completely worth it in the long run. I purchased two of these monitors and both are running nicely in a dual screen operation. The only problem I had was the DVI cables that came with it don’t fit on a standard dual dvi EVGA card. Being a computer nerd that was not a problem as I just dipped into my supply of discard parts from previous builds to get more “standard” DVI cables with normal size connectors on them.

    The only thing I was disatisfied with is that UPS left one on the wrong doorstep and luckily I have honest neighbors and then the second one on my doorstep. However, I do understand that mistake is not amazon’s fault, but they did ship these monitors in their original boxes. So if you live somewhere where people would be prone to picking up a LED Monitor box off your doorstep ship it to work or a friend’s house. It would be great if Amazon had a way to cover these boxes or put them in other boxes so people cannot see the contents.

    Overall, I’m very satisfied with my purchase.
