ViewSonic VG2455-2K 24 Inch IPS 1440p Monitor with USB C 3.1, HDMI, DisplayPort and 40 Degree Tilt Ergonomics for Home and Office

Excellent monitor for the price range. The USB Type C connection is very reliable and allows you to connect a USB-C laptop with only 1 cable and if you are using it for a non-USB-C device, you can connect with HDMI or DP and also connect the USB Type B cable to activate the USB Type A hub on the monitor. The USB hub is great if you have multiple devices you switch between like work and personal laptops and want them to instantly connect to other USB devices (like a docking station). I keep my USB wireless adapters for the mouse and keyboard plugged in the monitor and just switch the laptops when needed. I use it with my HP Elite X2 and by connecting it with the USB-C cable, I get the following: 1) Charges the laptop and keeps it at 100% while using it. 2) Delivers HD video and audio to the monitor without the need for HDMI or DP cables. 3) Activates the USB hub in the monitor (3 additional USB Type A ports for the computer) without the need to connect the USB Type B cable. My only disappointment is the sound. The built in speakers are so weak that you can barely hear anything. So just pretend they dont exist and get external speakers or a soundbar.

Monitor perform very well - good color, excellent picture quality, brightness is much better than my prior monitor. Im using 2560x1440p resolution - and use it as my primary monitor. I also have a 21 HP 1-8-p monitor as my 2nd monitor and am using the laptop screen as monitor 3. All three interact well in Windows10. The 2560x1440 gives me plenty of working area on the main screen -- often I use 2-3 windows on that screen and can still position them to view all with only slight overlaps. I use screen 2 as the screen to share for online presentations or to park an open document or Excel for frequent reference. I only keep then laptop screen open so I can use Hello Windows login from the laptop camera -- I dont really use the screen often. I deliberately bought the USB C to have one cable connections - but due to some other port needs, Im actually connected using HDMI for now so I cannot comment on that capability.

I did hours of research before taking a chance on this monitor. I bought it as a second monitor for my new MacBook Air 2018, as my new Mac would not recognize my old monitor even with the correct adapter cord (I’m guessing it was too old and outdated?). I chose this product because it is USB-C compatible and based on the positive reviews. I nervously hooked it up using an Apple thunderbolt 3 cord ($39.99 on amazon) hoping my Mac would recognize it and — voila!! It worked beautifully. This monitor is not only perfectly compatible with MacBook Air 2018 but also has great resolution and some nice adjustment features - you can effortlessly move it up and down or swivel the screen side to side using the easy-to-assemble base. I highly recommend it!!

I tried this out with two Macs, a 2018 MacBook Pro with USB C connectivity, and a 2015 MacBook Pro. I connected the ViewSonic using a USB-C to DisplayPort cable, using a Thunderbolt 3-USBC cable, and using an HDMI cable. Whichever cable was used, from whichever Mac, resulted in an identical HD picture and an instantaneous transition to two side-by-side windows that could be used from the Mac. The picture itself is larger than that of the MacBooks built-in video but not quite as bright or as crisp. Still, it makes for perfect watching from a distance - Netflix streaming - or for having an extra stretch of desktop for home-based office work. What I have not been able to make work is the audio. For both Macs, for any cable, I was at best able to get it so that low level volume comes through to the ViewSonics speakers but it is not menu-adjustable nor does it respond to the built-in volume control (though the mute setting works properly). This may be a problem on the MacOS side rather than on the ViewSonics side, The sound can easily be switched back to the Mac where it is controllable in the usual manner. There are a number of adjustments to the video that can be made from the ViewSonics built in menu-driven control structure. Input control to get where you need is reasonably intuitive. The angle and height of the monitor on the detachable stand is easily adjusted, and the unit can be used in portrait mode if desired (and thats really where this shines, since that makes review of long pdf files or Word documents a breeze). This is more of an expansion of the MacBook Pros built-in video for those who need more desktop space, rather than as a separate screen for watching movies or other streaming material. From that perspective, connectivity and operating functionality is all excellent. Now if I could get the audio to play nicely with my MBPs, Id be happier with alternative applications.

I like the picture quality, I basically use it to watch movies when Im not working on other stuff. I love it.

The monitor is ok, nothing fancy. I purchased it because it was supposed to support pass-through charging for my MacBook Pro so I could cut down on the cords on my desk, after reading some of the other reviews and tech questions it sounded like the monitor would but that appears not to be the case. I even purchased a 3.1 USB-C cord but no luck. I dont think this thing puts out enough power sadly.

Después de probar 4 monitores, la calidad de este es superior en muchos sentidos, la definición y resolución de imagen se nota con sus 2K. Muy buen brillo, calidad de sus materiales y un diseño funcional y moderno, totalmente recomendado!

I have been using three monitors across my desk as one wide screen for CAD, business documents and research, and even Flight Simulator. My previous set of monitors finally started going bad after 15 years and multiple moves! I called and spoke with a ViewSonic rep and he recommended these monitors as replacements. They exceed everything I expected. The colors are brilliant and the graphics are sharp. The stand has the best adjustments for height, angle, and tilt that I have ever seen. For the cost, these monitors are hard to beat!

I love that I can manipulate this monitor in so many different ways. It is completely flexible and free to move around. It was extremely easy to set up as part of an extended screen setup with a docking station. I like that I can adjust the monitor settings so easily. Very good investment.

Good entry level monitor for business. I like that I can adjust the height and tilt in so many ways. Picture quality pretty good. Only thing I dont like is the menu tree is not very intuitive. Overall a good choice.
