"As a monitor, there's little to fault here. Good size and performance speaks well of it, and it has numerous energy saving features. The one odd aspect--that I listed somewhat as a "Con"--is where the monitor begins its countdown to shutdown (i.e., a sleep mode) even when I'm still working on the PC. It's a minor annoyance mostly, but unless it's operator error on my part (enitrely possible!), I wish it "recognized" activity versus inactivity before shutting down. That'd be my only complaint; otherwise, no issues."

Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Realistic color

Cons: odd energy saver performance

I have had this product for a year and a half, and it is still running very well. The only con I would say the price, although that is a competitive price for an LED monitor. Other than that, it is awesome!"

The options to bring about the colors you want is wide so you will likely be happy with this choice because of the quality.

Four stars because monitor stand does not raise and it was funky to put the back piece on."

PostedMay 31, 2011

"The monitor itself has a very nice display but the stand and puting in the cable for the hdmi/rgb is terrible. I owned a 24 in. lcd Samsung with a stand that moved up and down, besides tilting. I suppose like everything else in this world we have to put up with shoddy design. The stand is really , really bad. It does not sit level and the way it attaches to the monitor is very poor. I love Samsung products but some one should have designed the stand to match the display of the monitor"

Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Realistic color, Lightweight

Cons: Did not meet expectations, very shoddy stand not like samsung quality at all, video card cable can't turn the knurled knobs, doesnt sit level and no way to adjust., not as pretty as my 24" samsung lcd monitor, lacking the trim that my old samsung had., very scarry first attempt to tilt screen felt like, it would break., had to put mouse pad under one half to level
