ViewSonic VA2459-SMH 24 Inch IPS 1080p Frameless LED Monitor with HDMI and VGA Inputs

I bought this monitor after doing some research about monitors. Ive been "messing" with computers since 1993 and the Viewsonic brand has always been a solid name in monitors. This one doesnt disappoint ... at least in my humble opinion. The screen is sharp and bright ( a bit too bright, I had to turn down the brightness a bit). Has good side to side viewing angles(Ive looked at it from the extreme angle and the picture is still sharp, bright, and full of color). With its 5 ms refresh time and 60 mhz response, it might not be the ideal monitor for gamers. However, in the games I play (mostly strategy and city building titles like Cities Skylines, Planet Coaster, Banished and so forth) performs quite well. Viewsonic does make some gaming oriented monitors, but this one fits my needs quite well. All in all, I would recommend this monitor. Its worth every penny of its price.

Love this 27in LED monitor! Working great and looking great since first plugged in. This is my main monitor...center in a 3 monitor array..flanked by 2 Viewsonic 23in monitors. If the smaller ones go out, Ill replace with a 27 like this. Surely would buy again. Replaced am older LG LCD that quit. (Pics to show array...had to block the work out :-)

ViewSonic VA2359-SMH 23" IPS 1080p HDMI Frameless LED Monitor I am totally pleased with my new monitor. The display is vibrant and sharp, and I can view it from any angle. My first ViewSonic monitor was a monster in terms of size and footprint—this was almost 25 years ago—but it enabled me to do the fine graphics needed for my work. I am glad to see that ViewSonic still offers a quality product at an affordable price. I paid MUCH more for my first one, and it didnt have anywhere near the display capabilities of the current model. Ive been using the monitor for 5 months now, with no issues or problems.

This is for the VA2759-SMH 27". I order the 23" by mistake and reorder the 27". The 23" I didnt like and tried to cancel the 27" but I miss the cutoff. I decided to go ahead and try the 27" inch and love it. If youre thinking of buying make sure you get the 27". The best monitor I have ever had. I have 3 24" Samsung on my desk at work and 2 Dell 2415 and 1 VA2759-SMH ViewSonic. I also just gave my son my ASUS VH238H. Again this is what I have own in the last 3 years. I have own many over the years.

This is a pretty good picture, nice and bright and clear. I got it for a temp monitor for a trip, a "burner". For ports you get old school VGA or HDMI - no DVI nor Display Port / mini DP. VGA cable is included, but HDMI is NOT included; thats fine as long as you plan ahead. If youre using VGA, they include some type of cable to route the sound, though I didnt try it. If using HDMI, I can confirm that sound does come through the monitor (assuming your laptop supports that; Im on an older Macbook Retina) The speakers are absurdly tinny, think 1970s transistor radio, and it sounds like its coming from some vague point way behind the monitor. Since Im using it as a monitor I dont mind, but just be warned. For any movie watching, plan for other speakers or headphones; TV news would be passable. The monitors snap on base lets it pivot up and down, thats it. For left and right, you can move the base. And no portrait mode rotation on this budget model; I might suggest one of the Dell monitors if you want that. Although the mount and base are "plastic-y", in the short term thats actually not really bad; you can quick snap the base on and off Not sure theres any VESA mount options, I didnt really check. The packaging looks decent; Ill be using the original box to send it back home. Monitors that get shipped around a lot may eventually break, so I tend to buy cheaper ones. This one doesnt look any worse than others in that respect.

I have two of these on a pole stand hooked up to my Mac Mini (2012), as part of my stand up desk. I am in front of those screens 60+ hours a week. As displays, they are just perfect. Now, if you think youre going to get decent audio out of these, I have a unicorn to sell you. The little speakers sound more tinny than a bad cell phone and the volume control embedded deep in the menu system is basically unusable.

Its a great monitor. Image quality is stellar. Also, and quite surprisingly, the speakers are good; theyre louder and clearer than my laptops speakers which is a great added bonus. Of course, the gist is that this is 27" monitor, with an IPS screen (good viewing from all angles), two video inputs (HDMI and VGA), 3.5mm audio in and 3.5mm audio out, and two speakers. Things I like: Two audio inputs. If youre using the HDMI video input, you you can choose the audio source (audio-over-HDMI or the 3.5mm jack). This is nice and flexible. Note though that if youre using VGA, its only the 3.5mm jack. You can switch between video inputs with one button click. Good. You can add powerful external speakers if needed (suing the 3.5mm audio out). You can mount it with a VESA mount (100X100). The screen controls are usable and good.

Keep in mind that this review is being written by a guy whos got some vision challenges. Its a MIRACLE!!! I can SEE!!! This monitor is a good solution for poor/failing eyesight. Of course, not a permanent one, but a good one, nonetheless. Bright monitor with a reasonably high resolution that makes reading without a magnifying glass possible (17 inch laptop just wasnt up to it) even in standard definition and contrast mode. I have put the accessibility options back in the box and am back to normal productivity: no more magnifying glass! Lightweight and tilt make adjustability a snap. Height is easily and safely adjusted with a medium sized book under the stand. This monitor also has four attachment points on the back for using a swing arm mount should you choose to do so. Hook up to the ViewSonic site to download driver updates (if theyre needed) and follow the prompts. Adjust your graphics card driver to the full resolution of the monitor. BAM! Done. Im now able to read text and numbers with relative ease. I cant tell if things are fuzzy or clear, but the color and contrast impressions Im getting are better than Im used to. I think that for price/performance, you have to give this monitor five stars. Also for design and ease of use. The only weakness would have to be the speakers, but since I use external speakers their tinny-ness does nothing to detract, and they would be useful to an office user for the audible prompt they are capable of providing. 90 day edit: Nothing to add except that I has performed flawlessly while standing up to 10 hours per day use.that includes editing/typing, streaming video, and an occasional hour or two with Fallout Four or Laura Croft, etc. I still highly recommend.

I was a little concerned about the capabilities of this monitor compared to others I have owned in the past. I wanted something large enough for me to see without having to alter the resolution settings of my PC to see some of the sites that you visit frequently. I do suffer from vision and mobility problems so the clarity and print size were a necessity for my use. I was surprised at the clarity and brightness of the screen from the first moment I turned it on. The price-performance of this monitor exceeds my expectations. I was a little concerned about the low price actually delivering a monitor that was this good. In my case, I didnt have to do anything to adjust the monitor or the settings to get what I needed. Im not a PC novice and after reading some of the reviews I thought I might have to do some tweaking. That was not the case because it worked extremely good right out of the box.. In my case, I couldnt ask for anything more.

Fantastic image quality, VESA compatible and the sound quality from the 3.5mm jack is great. Many of the other reviews have already commented on the great picture quality of the display and the VESA support. I feel like the audio output of the monitor hasnt been mentioned much. The onboard audio for my motherboard has a noticeable static to it, especially when moving my mouse. I tried my LG 4ks monitor audio output and it also had some static and limited to 48khz. This monitors audio output from the 3.5mm jack has 0 static and does 24 bit and 192khz. Thats really impressive from something I doubt many people plan on using. The audio quality is better than any other monitor Ive used.
