Monitor is great. No question. Unfortunately mine is defective. It has an intermittent issue where the screen wigs out. Can happen 3 times in a day; can work perfectly for 2 weeks. Have confirmed with Viewsonic that they will only repair and not replace. Have also confirmed they have no policy for intermittent issues and will likely plug it in, see it works and return it to me unrepaired. After $40 in shipping costs and 2 weeks without my monitor.

This is exactly what I was expecting for everyday monitor use: a fair bit of traditional computing with some non-FPS intensive game play. Adjustments are relatively easy once you figure out that the buttons are on the back of the monitor on the right side. Some other review claims about an unstable monitor stand are in my opinion meritless - I use this on a height adjustable table, and I dont notice any excessive movement; the monitor is perfectly stable. The included cables worked just fine at 4K, both mini-DP and HDMI (you probably dont need to buy separate cables). My monitor is placed about 30-36 inches away from my eyes. There are no dead pixels (either all ON or all OFF) as best I can tell. The down-sides, which dont merit losing a star include: * it is not an HDR monitor, but then again it never claimed to be. * as shipped mine didnt included a manual of any sort - I had to go to Viewsonics site. It should have shipped with a manual instead of an extremely uninformative Startup Guide. An annoyance, but not significant. * it is not extensively adjustable for extremely high color fidelity as best I can tell, but I could be wrong as I dont really care that much about super-duper photo editing. There are no claims by Viewsonic that this monitor is designed for that kind of usage (color space coverage, HDR), so it cant be dinged for a usage for which it is not designed for or claims made for. * Many applications are obviously not designed in terms of fonts sizes and scaling for a high density or large display surface, and Windows 10, although it does have some adjustments, is quirky. With a large higher PPI monitor be prepared to spend time tuning scaling, fonts, etc to suit your usage. This is NOT a monitor flaw, so it cant be dinged for this. In short, this is a great large everyday monitor. If you have a large enough and deep enough workspace, and have the $$$, consider buying this monitor.

I purchased it on May 19th and the right edge becomes dark recently. Does anyone know what happen to it ?

I typically stick with HP displays but HP is slacking on options for a larger-sized monitor with the curve. When I first started using the Viewsonic, I was pretty amazed. My previous monitor was a 28 inch so the larger screen size was a step up. The curve is nice and at first, I was really impressed but in all honesty, after the novelty wore off, I realized that its not life-changing. This particular model is good, despite the somewhat dated refresh rate and other performance-related specs. Im not an expert on displays but for the price, its a decent option. The problem I have experienced is with text. It isnt especially crisp in a full-sized window. Also, when windows open up, they often do so in odd positions on the screen. This is hard to explain but its like the PC doesnt really understand the view. I always have to drag the window to the center. Ill summarize with this: Im happy with it because its large, was inexpensive, and it LOOKS really good on my desk but when I upgrade again, I will definitely spend the extra money for a higher quality display.

I went back and forth between a 5-star and a 4-star on this monitor, even while writing the review. Im going with 5-star for now, given that Ive used it now for several months and in basically every respect I really like it. The two drawbacks are some fairly minor ghosting, and the not-stellar OSD. The ghosting that others note is indeed real, though I dont think its very pronounced. It manifests with seeing the outlines of application borders show through other apps very slightly if you switch one over another. It quickly fades to invisible. It also seems to be less obvious or nonexistent in the lower-performance modes than if you amp up the mode to a very bright gaming mode, for instance. I use the monitor for browsing, text manipulation, image work and occasional movies, and for these applications the ghosting is easy to forget. I have also noticed that the graphics card itself and possibly the cable, contribute to the ghosting or lack thereof. It seems more obvious with low-quality laptop graphics drivers. Im not sure how that really could be, but it is predictable and consistent, given that every day I use this monitor with at least two, sometimes three, computers. The on-screen display works fine, but its not very intuitive to use. The manufacturer went out of their way to make a tiny bezel (which I love) and thus they hide the buttons around one side, on the back, which is inconvenient. Im not sure what better alternative there is, except having them in a similar position but closer to the middle of the screen. Given the size of the monitor, reaching for the buttons puts your face fairly close to the screen. This may be an issue for some people, not for others. Ignoring those issues, the monitor is gorgeous. The bezel is about 1cm on three sides, and maybe 2cm on the bottom. Mine arrived with zero dead pixels. Default brightness is great for my needs, and the color is spot-on. I used a professional graphics monitor for years, and had struggled with it because of un-correctable red channel issues, so its a relief to have this monitor with great, clean color. White whites, black blacks, and accurate RGB rendering. Being able to adjust the black point independently of contrast is excellent. At first I hesitated with getting a monitor of this size. Silly me. I had previous used two 24" monitors turned 90° situated side-by-side, but that became annoying both due to the extra-large "center" bezel, the difference in color rendering, and also the inability to get every OS upgrade and video driver upgrade to recognize both monitors and use them at full resolution. Those issues are all eliminated by this monitor, and Im quite pleased with the extra screen real estate. Performance is fine for me. I suspect the response time would not be satisfactory for serious gamers, but I have no issues with it. The power consumption is also far lower than one of my older monitors, which is great for avoiding issues with heating up the room in summer.

This is a review for the ViewSonic VX4380-4K 43" 4K IPS 2160p Frameless LED Monitor. Ive had this monitor for about six months and have been very happy with it. I wanted a bright 4K monitor to update my (Linux-based) home theater, without any Smart. Sitting 5-8 feet from it (I wouldnt want to be much closer given its size), I can use it as a computer monitor for browsing the web (plenty clear), as well as video. This monitor has incredible brightness if desired, and the blacks are pretty reasonably black as well. Detail is excellent, colors extremely VIBRANT! Of the IPS Ive seen, this is comparable. Its like a big smartphone screen, major eye-candy. Good viewing angles. Makes my 24 inch monitor look tiny and dim. It has a semi-glossy surface, so when viewing a dark or black screen, light sources will reflect if behind you, and you can see your reflection somewhat, in a soft diffused, anti-glare sort of way, as opposed to a full-on gloss reflection. I can always see detail so its minimally distracting, and this gives the screen more pop in terms of color and brightness, imo. I was shopping for more of a matte but Im quite happy with this - I see why they used the finish they did. But its glossier than the TV it replaced. I use it in a bright sunlit room with little light behind me, and it is plenty bright. I actually had to turn it down. I use a dark theme, and it does well with that too. Build quality seems good, is lightweight, and doesnt generate much heat. Well-packed, easy setup, plenty of cables. I did experience some signal drops, as noted in my uses below, but that was with a 50 foot copper HDMI cable, so not so surprising (the computer driving it is in another room). See below for possible workaround (fiber optic HDMI is a thing). PROS + BIG, BRIGHT, COLOR-WONDERFUL, 4K + Lots of inputs + Also looks good and clear at 1080p + Good OSD, accessible buttons + Low heat and lower radiation feel in front of it than a typical TV CONS - Occasional signal drop with 50 foot cable (1080p 60 Hz HDMI 1.0) - No 3.5 mm audio in, but does have 3.5 mm audio out UNTESTED * Sound inputs/outputs, speakers * USB hub * DisplayPort HOW IVE USED IT ---------------------------------------------- 1080p 60 Hz HDMI 1.0 [50 foot copper HDMI 1.0 cable] Im in the process of upgrading, so Ive mostly been running it at 1080p on my old ATI video card. Initially it looked slightly unclear at 1080p so I made some OSD adjustments and then was very happy with it (changed these from default): View Mode: Standard Blue Light Filter: 50 (was 0) not a huge change noticeable Color Adjust: Brightness: 60 (was 100) Manual Image Adjust: Sharpness: 100 (was 50) Setup: ECO Mode: Optimize (was Standard) dims backlight I put it in ECO mode Optimize because it lowered the brightness. I also made xrandr shortcuts in Linux so I can lower the brightness with a key in the evenings. Mostly it has been working great in 1080p, aside from dropping its signal approximately once a day. It just goes black for about one second, then comes right back. My cable is an above-average 50 foot HDMI 1.0 cable running at 1080p 60 Hz. ---------------------------------------------- 2160p (4K) 30,60 Hz HDMI 2.0 [50 foot copper HDMI 2.0 cable] Testing my new ASUS laptop with a GTX 1060 to drive this monitor, I bought a new 50 foot copper HDMI 2.0 cable that was rated at 4K @ 60 Hz. However, this combination did not work - it produced a black screen, or sparkles, or if I moved the cable just so, it would show the screen but with major unusable flicker and image movement. However, this cable did work okay if I lowered the output to 2160p 30 Hz, no noticeable flicker or issues. This problem is apparently common with 30+ foot HDMI cables at 2160p @ 60 Hz, so I have ordered a fiber optic 50 foot HDMI cable to replace it. These are supposed to have low signal loss so it should be more reliable than copper at this length (and much thinner). I will update this review, or if I forget then you can assume it worked without issues. [Update: It works fine 4K@60Hz with optical HDMI.] ---------------------------------------------- 2160p (4K) 60 Hz HDMI 2.0 [6 foot copper HDMI 1.0 cable] Even though the cable is an older pre-4K one, 2160p @ 60 Hz looked great over this cable, very sharp 4K results. Overall I found the above cable issues understandable and I dont blame the monitor, but I didnt test it much with shorter cables. 5 stars - recommended as a great option in this size and 4K, image quality.

I use it at work as my primary monitor along with two Samsung 32" (S32D850T) rotated in Portrait mode. The three monitors give me the perfect amount of screen pixels to work effectively & fit perfectly on my 6 foot desk. I spend my day doing software development, so I havent tried any 4K videos or anything. Chrome doesnt like the color profile on Windows 10, so I switched back to default color profile.

Not much of a technical review here. I have it hooked to a Mac Mini (2018) via HDMI and it works beautifully. Video and images are crisp. No ghosting. Color reproduction is as accurate as Ive seen before. Speakers are small and dont sound great though I didnt expect them to. Speakers are perfect for system sounds and listening to the occasional youtube video or news. Price is certainly reasonable for a monitor of this size IMHO.

The monitor itself is decent. The menu and the volume control on this thing is laughable at best. Unfortunately, this is what I would expect for the price I guess. Whoever designed the menu and controls on this thing probably had their parents pay a bribe to get them into a decent school...this thing is TERRIBLE.

This monitor is pretty awesome - I just got it and installed it. Im used to large monitors (I use a Dell P4317Q at work, and this is replacing a Seiki Pro SM40UNP at home) so getting used to the size was a non-issue for me. When I first hooked it up, Windows wanted to scale at 300% making the text WAY too big. The only real problem with it is a design issue. The VESA mounts are WAY high up on the back of the monitor (see the picture). Thats mounted on an Ergotron HX arm, and at the maximum height of that arm, theres only about an inch of clearance between the desk and the monitor. If the mounting holes were more in the center of the monitor, then this would be perfect. I have a motorized standing desk, so its not a HUGE issue for me since its still height adjustable to fit my liking. However, just like with a stand the space at the back of the desk is "wasted" (though I DO have things behind there that I just dont need access to all the time). All in all a good monitor, though!!!!
