> 24 hourThis Monitor is very good. But I would not pay way more than the 90$ I gave on black friday. Meanwhile there are several Monitors with Low Blue light adjuster and flicker free as well as brightness sensor. This Monitor has at least all 3 items although I have seen an Phillips Monitor for a Little more Money with These Features as well which has on top an colour gammut of 108% NTSC and has 75 Hertz refresh rate. I would probably take by now the Phillips as it is at 106$ by now - same Screen size and Display. But Overall this is an awesome Monitor. It is rated for 30000 hours backlight LED endurance and power on for MTBF of 60000 hours. My SSD has now over 10000 hs and is already a couple of years old (91% wear Level), so expect the Monitor to last about the same as an SSD with normal use. Colour gammut is 72% NTSC and is good enough for all Tasks. It came with an HDMI cable included. Stand is sturdy since it has metal underneath the plastic. I have the blue light filter on 50% (webbrowsing they call it) which reduces brigthness greatly (to which I am a bit sensitive as it seems). Auto brightness sensor is built in which does work (shining on the sensor with an flashlight increases the Screen glow and reducing it afterwards with lights switched off). Has DP and HDMI ports. Speakers are so so but work. On an Monitor like this Speakers are not really needed since I have an 2.1 T&V Speaker System. Built in Speakers are really important only in tablets where they have to be excellent and loud enough since one is not going to toss around a real estate of attached Speakers. On Desktop Setups built in Speakers are not important. 250 nits brightness is way enough for decent movie, Surfing and gaming experience. The 23.8 size is perfect for Desktop use (I come from an 17.3 Laptop Screen) and the IPS Panel makes the huge difference in eye care as well. The IPS Panel is the single biggest eye saver Technology of the last years which avoids the eyes to constantly find the sweet spot on an traditional non IPS Display as my Laptop Screen was. I coupled this Monitor to my older Laptop which is an wonderfull Setup - why throw away an 8 year old Laptop (Intel quad core, 8 GB RAM, SSD) when it still works perfectly and the Hardware is somewhat up to date still? For Youtube, movies, etc upgrade your old machines with an SSD and they will run for a decade more or so (avoiding electrowaste. No Need for the latest and greatest). I find myself being in front of this Monitor more without glasses which never would happened before with the traditional non IPS Laptop 17.3 Screen. Great Monitor but watch out for a step higher when the Price is minimal more. With 23.8 that is the Maximum to go with FHD (1920 x 1200) since at 24 Screens you are looking already for an 4K Monitor since the Pixels of this Monitor is only at 93 PPI while my Amazon Fire tablet has an PPI of 182 IPS Display. So an 27 Monitor should have an 4K Screen while with this Monitor you get away still with 1080p. Close up I can see with the naked eye (without glasses) the individual Pixels. But yeah, for the Price you can buy just a new one if it Fails at 60000 hours (MTBF as per specs. An SSD should have an Main Time Before Failure rate of about 2 Million hours for comparison). Set up was easy basically PnP (plug and play). Adjustment Buttons on Screen are fine. I like the power on light as it glows a whitish glow. I hope this Monitor lasts me Long as we will see the durability. Plastic parts of the Monitor are of high Quality and seem not cheapish and fit and finish is excellent. Awesome thin bezel. Darks could be darker but thats an inherent characteristic of the IPS Technology. No light bleeding or back glowing on edges or stuff but the blacks could be a bit darker. Otherwise an huge improvement from the Laptop Screen I come from. Bigger Screen and you will probably not see the edges since I sit about 30 cm away from the Monitor. Watching movies I get at least 40 cm to 100 cm distance. If the durability holds up I recommend this Monitor. I bought it because it is supposed TUV Rheinland approved and tested for flicker free and Low Blue light. Whatch out for newer models, better features and other brands for similar Price range. But you will be happy with this Monitor even for light gaming. Buy a cheapish Laptop if you cant afford anything else (or upgrade an existent one) like an cheap Dell Inspiron 11 (use the Laptop as PC), connect it to this big Monitor with mouse an keyboard, throw in a decent Sound System and you have a full Desktop replacement set up which serves as full home Theater and Entertainment System as well as gaming rig (depending on the Laptop Hardware). If one part Fails, Switch it for another part and no Need to throw the whole Thing away. I recommend this Monitor. But for retail Price of 149$ look for better deals and more bang for your buck. UPDATE 21.01.2020: On the right lower corner there seems to be the light a little dimmer than on the rest on the screen. No light bleeding but that corner gets a littler darker towards the corner (meeting point of horizontal and vertical edges). No noticeable pixels burned out on any Colour. So thats what I observed till now. Otherwise awesome monitor. I recommend for under 100$ although there are already several alternatives for this with a wider Colour gammut, a little more money and as well flicker free and reduced blue light eye care certification as well with an integrated brightness sensor. The 24 size is about the optimal monitor size.

> 24 hourI recently started wanting a true PC setup for my streams. I had one of these monitors from a different website and loved it so much that I decided to buy a second to add a second monitor to my setup. The monitor came fast and was handled well. The packaging was well protecting the screen. The screen is so clean and clear. I have no issues with getting it to work with my setup via display port or HDMI. If you’re looking for something to just browse the internet with or to do gaming this is the perfect screen. The size is perfect for me. Would highly reccomend

> 24 hourIve been pleasantly surprised with this Monitor. I mostly got this work on video editing, and Ive noticed that I dont have as intense headaches that I usually get from staring at a monitor all day. Ive seen prices jump on these from $120 to $200. Dont pay over the $120 price. I did order a second one because I do like the colors and it has helped with my migraines. For those of you looking for a gaming monitor, youll want to skip this one. It wasnt designed for it. I do some gaming on it, but only just for fun. 60Hz refresh rate and I tried to overclock the monitor and it cant be done. So youre not going to get over 60 fps on the monitor. There is also a 5ms delay. Again fine for everything else, but if you looking for a 1ms gaming monitor this isnt for you.

> 24 hourI purchased this as a second monitor and decided to go a little bigger and this was a great price to size choice for me. The colors dont feel as good to me as my other monitor, but it delivers in its size, decently thin bezel, and the speakers are a nice addition too. (The speakers arent the greatest, but they certainly do the job of saving you a few bucks)

> 24 hourThe first thing that my wife noticed as I pulled it out of the box was how little light reflected off the screen. And when we hooked it up the image quality was pretty darn great. I was pretty happy with how bright it was and then the next day, thinking it was a bit too bright for my early A.M. wake up I found out it was only at 30%. I can play World of Warcraft in the middle of the day and see the darkest of details in the game. Its amazing! And the blue light filter on it is a god send of technology, no more dry aching eyes and its easy to pull away and see the damn room in the dark. I can see why it sold out so quickly when we first got it. We had to wait a bit for my wife to get her own monitor as well.

> 24 hourIve had this monitor for about two years now and its perfect. I have a smaller desk and it fits rather nicely. The display is smooth. This product is marketed perfectly, it does everything it claims. Definitely worth the price. :)

> 24 hourDaily usage, hasnt worn out. Came in a nice box. One of the inserts is wobbly, I am fairly sure its on my desktop towers slot but then its got no signal detected until I jiggle it into place. Fairly frequent, Im getting my tower repaired soon.
