ViewSonic VX2467-MHD 24 Inch 1080p Gaming Monitor with 75Hz, 1ms, Ultra-Thin Bezels, FreeSync, Eye Care, HDMI, VGA, and DP

worth the money but my only gripe is they do not auto-initialize so you have to manually turn them on. Im not sure if this can be changed from the onboard settings but either way; out of the box they do not auto-initialize. Ive got a g9 odyssey, an LG 26inch, and 2 of these in my cave. I just wish they would turn on when the signal is detected. oh well. worth the buy.

Now that Im working from home again (thanks to Covid-19) I thought Id upgrade my personal workspace to match my office with dual monitors. I purchased 2 of these screens and LOVE them. Good solid construction and quality that I trust. Please note HDMI CABLES are NOT included unless you order it that way (I did not because I have several existing cables). I also used a WALI Dual LCD Monitor Fully Adjustable Desk Mount Stand which takes the 100 x 100 mm universal mounts. I did see a couple of monitors that were half the price through Amazon, which to be honest I did purchase because I have GDD (Good Deal Disease). I bought the other SCEPTRE monitors but had to return them because of bad HDMI ports. You can read my reviews on those screens. So after straying, I came back to ViewSonic and thrilled to be back. Everything worked as expected on the first try. Picture quality is crisp, clean, bright and light. My experience with ViewSonic has been, and continues to be, fabulous. Its a great value...so why by anything else?

Monitors picture looks great after you play with the settings, but the settings reset every time the monitor shuts off and I have to input them again. I dont know if its just a glitch or if thats the way its meant to be for some reason? The speakers are decent for a monitor, but dont expect great sound. Its pretty quiet, even at full volume, which is why I have mine plugged into a speaker system. Other than those little issues, Id recommend just for a budget set up or something cheap to game on if youre low on money. Worth it for the price.

I bought this monitor because I will be working from home for the foreseeable future, and wanted a larger monitor (than just my laptop monitor). Overall, I think this is a great monitor for the price. I gave it four stars because of the stand - it is not well designed and is somewhat wobbly. If I bump my desk, the monitor will wobble. I also think its difficult to change the settings. Other than that, Im pleased with the monitor.

To put this review into perspective, I purchased this monitor to replace a 6 year old HP LP2065 20 LCD monitor which is not HDCP compliant. On installing this monitor, I noted that the image was bright and lacking in contrast. Brightness and contrast are adjustable in the manual mode in the menu. Adjustments made the image better, but was still lacking in black level performance. Fine text was definitely softer than that on the HP monitor. When scrolling text, a yellow smear was visible trailing the text. This effect was mostly eliminated when switching to the Game mode. However, switching to this mode sets the brightness and contrast to fixed values. They are no longer manually adjustable. I had attended a wedding and took pictures with my digital camera. I processed the raw files and adjusted them the best I could based on the monitors image. I had trouble getting them to look right. The color accuracy of this monitor is definitely sub-par. When I printed some of these pictures, they were dark and dull looking, not at all how they looked on the screen. I put back the old HP monitor and looked at the processed images. They were dark and dull on the screen, exactly how they printed. I reprocessed the raw files and now have good looking prints. At this point, I packed up the monitor for return. It cost me just under $15 to ship it back. Lesson learned. Here is a summary: Pros HDCP compliant Inexpensive Light weight Bright image No hot or dead pixels Good horizontal viewing angle Comes with a complete set of cables Cons No height adjustment Mediocre black level Poor vertical viewing angle Inaccurate colors Scroll smear Very limited image adjustments Unsuitable for photographic image processing Soft fine text This monitor would be suitable for non image critical applications or gaming where its fast response and bright image would be a plus. As for me, Ill be shopping for something better.

I do photography editing and play online games. This monitor gives great colors and contrast for the games I play. I actually prefer to play my games with game mode off. I feel the colors are better and clearer outside of game mode. In game mode the colors seems to look blurred and smeared together with lightened color saturation. Which brings me to my photography side. I would NOT recommend this monitor to artists. The blacks on the monitor arent very dark. At all. Also even after color calibrating the monitor, my monitor seems to still have this yellow green hue on screen (where my yellows seem to still retain a small hint of green). Though when I print out my pictures that tint is not present. Still it makes processing somewhat more difficult. For most people, the colors are not noticeable (or looks great)... for those of us with trained eyes for color - its an eye sore. I still cant get over it. It bothers me even when I play my online game. I bought this monitor with more weight for gaming. So I gave it a moderate 3 star - its okay, decent, and good rating. I like it for my games. But I had hoped it would do well with photo processing as well though I did not sell myself on this aspect, which it did not. The off coloring is off putting but not enough for me to return the item... I plan to get another monitor anyway for specific photo processing.

I use two monitors. I had two 22 inch Viewsonics that got damaged in our 6.0 earthquake last year. One cracked and one finally started acting flaky recently. Since I like them to match I decided it was time to buy two more monitors. I went to the local Frys and bought a couple monitors whose brand names I wont mention because I think they were counterfeits and wouldnt be fair to the company whose name was used. They were so bad I returned them and came home and got on the internet to shop for Viewsonics. I still needed DVI connectors which is what drew me to these. A little bigger was good too. (24) They were $40 each more than the junk I had returned. This price is in the moderate to low end but make no mistake there is superior design in these monitors. I am 110% happy. Great color great sharpness. Good speed for games. There is a game mode with these that I havent used because it hasnt been necessary. After I hooked them up my wife came to ask how I liked them. I said I now have 4 feet of wow.

Monitor is as described. It has great Picture quality and color. Also has a nice sounding speaker.
