So, in addition to using this for a traditional desktop monitor, we use our computer monitor to watch netflix/firestick and such in bed at night. This is bigger and higher quality than my current monitor, so I was eager to try it out, but I should have looked more carefully at the specs. My current monitor has a remote that controls volume and even has a sleep timer which makes it great for this dual purpose. This one does not... it requires pushbutton control at the monitor, so not convenient for this purpose. In theory it may time out and trigger on (weve tried to test this but lose patience in waiting long enough), but we dont always shut the computer down, so that isnt super effective either. We also find the minimum volume on the monitor is too loud for our preference. That said, the image is sharp and clear and the edge to edge image is really nice. If you dont have any need for anything but a traditional desktop monitor, youll really like this product, but so many people watch streaming services through their computer now, in multi-function rooms, I think the addition of a monitor to serve computer/TV functions is really desirable.
