> 24 hourSo far Im loving this monitor. It works very well, and with some tweaking I was able to make the image and brightness come close to my other IPS gaming monitor. The image quality still isnt anything to write home about, but being an IPS panel means it already has great viewing angles and colors, so I cant really complain much about that. Its working great with Bitwig studio. The touch functionality in Windows 10 feels just as good as any other touch device Ive used. At first it was a little weird touching the screen because it feels like a regular monitor, but I got over that pretty quickly, and I definitely prefer the matte finish over a gloss finish. Glare and fingerprints are not an issue. My biggest gripe is related to the price($300 at the time of writing this review). IPS monitors have gotten much cheaper over the past year. Youre paying at least triple the price of a non-touch IPS. I have a hard time believing all the touch hardware raises the price so much when tablets and touchscreen laptops are cheap these days. Now Im okay with paying so much because its part of my workstation, but for someone who just wants to use a touch monitor with their computer for convenience, the price probably isnt worth it. I think they should drop it at least $50, and they should also offer a cheaper version that doesnt include the stand. Its a very nice, high-quality monitor stand, but I have mounted VESA stands that Id rather use. At the end of the day, the touchscreen works great with Windows 10, the image quality is good enough, and it doesnt look weird or out of place next to my other monitors. If you are okay with the price, then I see no reason not to get it.

> 24 hourMonitor is great, especially considering the price. Where my poor overall rating comes from, is that when I opened it, the monitor had obviously been used. The screen and logo protectors had been removed. There was debris on the rubber feet of the stand, screws had obviously been used, cables were opened and the base was broken. Thankfully, I planned to use a movable arm instead of the stand so I should be able to make it work.

> 24 hourIve had this for about a week and loving it. Hooked up fast, easily, and without issues. Hooked up with the DP and USB cables. Color is accurate out of the box but the screen brightness is just a tad on the dull side. I work in photoshop for graphics work and its suitable but just have to adjust to the lack of brightness by compensating for it in my workflow. Articulating screen works quite well although sometimes moving it moves the weighted base / entire unit out of position on my desk (but just a tad). Its VERY hard to find an all around good touch screen monitor on their own. I would say there are less than a dozen models but some are ancient (released back in 2013 or so) so choices are limited. This is simply because they didnt catch on as a stand alone product when the All in one computers came out with a touch screen monitor included. All in all I give this 4 stars very deservingly. The monitor came with the DP, USB, VGA cables and power cord and the design has cable management design to keep your cables tidy in the back. My only annoyance was first figuring out how to navigate the on screen menu for calibration and settings. Thera re buttons on the bottom edge of the screen bezel for that purpose and it wasnt really clear how to use them for navigating. As it turns out two of them are used to move left and right in the menu system and one is used to move up and down, while one of them helps you exit the menu. Once I figured it out its a breeze to use. One positive is the on / off button is illuminated and located in the same area as the navigation buttons on the right bottom. A bottom location for the on off button assures you wont be touching it while working your touch screen. Smart.

> 24 hourTouch screen does not work at all. Thus, it is just like a regular monitor. High adjustment does not fit for me. There is no much option to adjust the height.

> 24 hourI didnt think a touch-screen without glare or fingerprints was possible, but it is. Nice monitor! I was concerned about not having a glass screen. The feel is a little different under the fingers, but it responds well to touch. I warned the kids to only use a lite touch (and no jam-hands or potatochip-fingers); so far no problems... and amazingly no fingerprints!
