The Chad
Im not a computer whiz by any stretch of the imagination, but I am a bit of an audio/video enthusiast. I purchased this 28" monitor to hook up to my new computer after my last computer of 8 years bit the dust. The Good: Colors are mostly accurate with only a slight bluish tint depending on what mode you are in Wake time is fast (within 3-5 seconds) Minimal power consumption due to LED backlighting Great size for the price The Bad: The only negative experience Ive had with this monitor was a problem with it reading the input into HDMI 1 slot. After I initially hooked it up it worked flawlessly for about a week. Then one day I turned on my CPU and there was no picture. I turned off the monitor and turned it back on... nothing happened. The monitor searched for inputs multiple times before going to a blank screen. After several trial and error methods to fix I finally unplugged everything from the computer, the wall, and switched to a new HDMI cable. This still did not fix the problem. I went back to the original setup with the original HDMI cable and miraculously the picture came on again. To this day Im not sure why the screen went out for a short period of time. It could have been a problem with the computer (not likely), or it could have just been a fluke. It has worked perfectly since then and Im happy with my purchase. This screen is BIG for a small home office, and it eliminated the need for 2 different screens and a bulky dual screen mount.
