> 3 dayAUX por DOES NOT WORK. Also, the quality on the screen varies with sections of it being sharp and others being blury. Look elsewhere.

> 3 dayWhile its cheaper than my normal Asus EyeCare monitor, I wanted something smaller and my usual starts at 24...we have 5 in the family. The quality of this monitor was so awful for regular use, not even gaming. When side by side with my higher end model, the picture and refresh rate were apparent. Unless you really need a smaller monitor, I suggest the higher end EyeCare, which REALLY does help with your eyes, my husbands glasses prescription went down. You can find the higher end one on Amazon for something like $124 and absolutely worth every penny. I also suggest a monitor mount, which are also fairly cheap to get a larger monitor off your desk. My husband is a gamer but I use dual monitors for online shopping, email and managing our finances.

> 3 dayUPDATE: Ended up getting rid of it because it just couldn’t be bright enough It’s got really pretty good picture. I’m satisfied with it I do a little gaming and a lot of school and administrative work, flyer design nothing too fancy. My only complaint is that the built in speakers suck worse than my surface pro But overall pretty good, it mounts on my computer arm :) I’m happy worth the price for the quality

> 3 dayI bought a similarly priced/similarl spec asus monitor back in 2013 ($90, 1080p, 1ms response). I accidentally broke the screen, so i needed to replace it. I mistakenly believed, that this monitor would be aproximately the same.... BOY WAS I WRONG!!! where can i start? how about the only good thing: LATENCY: This is literally, the only thing i look for when buying a gaming monitor... thats why i bought the 2013 ASUS, and thats why i bought this one. this thing is fast and responsive, and it feels good playing on it. same deal as the 2013. Manufacturers never actually specify input latency, but you can usually deduce it from the pixel response time and the refresh rate. This monitor has a very respectable 1 ms/75 hz... and as expected, there is no perceptible input lag, even when playing fast action games from the 80s and 90s on FPGA hardware. --- Thats it for the good news... read on for the abysmal everything else: VIEWING ANGLE: so, the viewing angle is bad from left to right... but its SO BAD from top to bottom, that its impossible to position my head properly so that i can see an even picture from top to bottom. Its absolutely pathetic. It would suck trying to play local multiplayer on this junk. Ive never seen a worse viewing angle on any display, ever... maybe an original Gameboy, or something like that is worse. Im not exaggerating at all. By comparison, my 2013 asus had a viewing angle over 170 degrees. BRIGHTNESS: well... i mean... its fairly bright if you are looking right at it, but it just looks washed out. Again, im comparing it to my 2013 model which was EXTREMELY bright. COLOR: the colors are nowhere near accurate, but only an idiot would buy a $100 and expect an accurate color reproduction. to compare it to my 2013 asus, the colors on that panel were overly bright and saturated, but it looked great for gaming... the colors on this panel are washed out and lack contrast. It just looks awful. AUDIO: it has speakers, but they are, again, complete garbage... this is normal (and at least it has speakers)... but there is no way to connect external speakers or headphones if you are using HDMI. What the....? Oh, and get this... there are no volume controls... you have to use the awkward button interface to navigate to a THIRD LEVEL MENU TO ADJUST THE VOLUME!!!! What the...? Ive never seen anything like it in my life. CONNECTIONS: There are 3 connections hdmi, vga + audio in. I havent used the VGA yet, but i will check it out in a day or two. Im not even gonna bother with the audio in. if you are using VGA, plug your audio into literally ANYTHING else, and it will be better than this. By comparison, my 2013 Asus had 2 HDMI ports, one VGA port, and both audio in and audio out (which doubled for headphone output). It even had dedicated volume controls!!! What the...? -- BOTTOM LINE: This company has created a product which obviously neither the designers nor the quality assurance team cared about. If you need a gaming monitor with a fast response time, and you can overlook the TERRIBLE everything else, this might be an ok monitor for you if you can get it for under 100 dollars... (and you cant find anything else at that price point) otherwise... you should buy literally anything else. Ive never seen a worse monitor. Maybe try something from Sceptre, Acer, or LG if you are looking for a cheap gaming monitor.
