The VIOTEK HA238 is an okay monitor at a reasonable price. Its colors are great, and it is very stylish, but it has its drawbacks. PROS: Its a great budget monitor at a great price. These colors are very vivid, and are beautiful right out of the box. No adjustments necessary! Photography and art alike look beautiful. Its also great to watch movies on! I love the sleek, border-less look of the monitor. It is very contemporary and minimalist, which I can appreciate. I can look at this screen for hours without any eye trouble, and even all day (As I often do). Honestly, I have used this monitor for a long time, and I dont have too many regrets. CONS: As someone who has used this as their primary monitor for about a year, however, there are some things I would like to point out. Im a digital artist and gamer, my experience has been a little less-than-satisfactory in those aspects. The monitor has a 14ms delay, which you wont really notice unless youre playing a game at 60+ FPS. Rhythm games such as osu! will become harder (Especially in mania and taiko) as it might look like multiple beats appear at once, when they really dont. This can be attributed to the slow refreshing. It is not a true 60 fps monitor. If I had known this initially, I likely would have invested in a different monitor. On an older version of the product page, VIOTEK referred to this as, An enhanced cinematic experience. Which, to me, just sounds like instead of addressing and resolving an issue, or just ignoring it entirely (As this is a budget monitor), they instead tried to reword it into sales pitch, as if saying, "Its a feature!". Nice. Thankfully, its not much of an issue when watching films. However, you might notice a very subtle frame drop with presentations that require 60 frames. Its not too noticeable, and you gradually adjust to it. If you are someone who games all day, though, consider getting a 1-4 ms delay monitor (Those are about average, which is why 14 ms is VERY bad for fast reaction gaming). As a digital artist, however, I have to be careful when utilizing colors. As I had stated earlier, the colors on this monitor are beautiful, breath-taking in their saturation. But you have to be aware that this monitor will display colors differently than a traditional monitor in order to achieve this vividness. Therefore I have to use my laptop screen to test the colors. However, they do look quite beautiful when I drag them back to this monitor. I guess I cant complain too much. Even though this monitor is pretty sturdy, I need to address the fact you cant tilt this monitor up or down, just left-to-right. This was never an issue for me as its at a perfect eye level from where I sit. However, for people with tall chairs or short chairs, I wouldnt recommend this. Also, when you lift the monitor up, the bottom stand (Which is in 2 pieces) disconnects unless you hold it in place AND the rest of the monitor at the same time. A bit annoying if youre cleaning your desk, as the monitor is very front-heavy without its bottom stand, leaving you holding a thin metal stick. Sure, a sturdy one, but its still just a stick. The last gripe I have is something very easy to fix. When you plug this monitor in for the first time, it is blindingly bright. Maybe thats just due to my sensitive eyes, but turning it down a ways seems to fix the issue. However, I wasnt expected to go blind from turning a monitor on for the first time. Like I said, though, very easy permanent fix. Just an odd factory setting.

There isnt anything else on the market at this price point that you want to waste your time with. I went from a fairly decent 24" monitor to this and am still AMAZED by the size difference and immersion from gaming. Granted, itd be nice if it offered higher resolution because text in a word document looks a tiny teensy bit grainy. But since you can zoom in and make it look like you have a freaking billboard in your office (ok, thats an exaggeration (sort of)), who cares? The one thing I was concerned with was the white color of the frame. I thought it would be distracting, but its actually very discrete and it frames the screen quite nicely. I included a picture of this monitor with the 24" monitor I had been using. The picture doesnt quite do it justice, but you get the idea that this monitor is big and bright enough to do what you need it to do. Im super lazy and havent adjusted the colors since I got it out of the box, in case anyone might have questions in that regard. Bottom line: If youre looking for a larger monitor on a budget, look no further.

Im not sure what I expected for $175, but more than this. I ordered two of the 27" monitors based on many of the positive reviews and the product photo showing dual monitors side by side, showing almost no bezel. What I found to be the case was much different. The bezel is much larger than shown in the photos. (for that reason ALONE, I am returning both of them) But then I spent over an hour trying to tweak the color/brightness/contrast settings to get something other than a washed out display. I was never able to get a result that I was satisfied with, either the colors were muted or whites were all blown out. Sometimes you DO get what you pay for. I just wish these companies wouldnt be so deceitful when it comes to product photos! (see their product photo on their monitor and compare it to the actual monitor. See the obvious difference in bezel size) BEZEL-LESS? NO WAY!

We purchased this item so we could have a larger image to show parents when they come to have ultrasounds in our office. It was basically "plug in and go!" It works perfectly. It was shipped quickly and packaged very securely.

I was amazed at the quality of the picture on this monitor! Super thin screen, perfect size for my one monitor setup. The white adds so much class. Its also a plus that it has Vesa mounting ability! I plan on putting it on an arm eventually. Only had it about a week so far, but I love it! I dread using my work setup now. My speakers are arriving tomorrow and Im redoing the wire management. I know it takes away from the aesthetic some in the photos, but you get it

This is a very nice monitor. Be warned, though, there are no speakers. Its a "monitor". Kay? Okay. This screen has very good quality picture, very visible at angles out to about 45 degrees on either side of center, vertically, and horizontally. Within this range, Id have to say the picture quality reminds me a lot of a large cathode ray tube monitor. I dont see the blatant hotspots I do on other LED lit monitors. It looks fairly clean, and evenly lit all the way across. The only minor visual artifacts are a couple of slightly dimmer areas in the far lower left, and lower right corners of the screen, but youd have to be looking at a web site where there is a lot of plane, featureless white areas on the page to really notice this artifact. Im sure its just the nature of LED back / edge lighting, but its certainly nothing when compared to an older LED monitor I have thats no longer in production. Ive even seen CRTs that have worse artifacts. I was amazed at how thin the majority of the monitor is. Its vesa mount area is about an inch or so thick, maybe a wee bit more, and the entire back plate, as well as the bezel are actual M E T A L !!! This is very cool! It means the product is built lake a tank, but more than that, I think the metal back is intended to serve as a great big honkin heat sync. Those LEDs do get warm. I really like the fact the monitor actually came with a VGA cable, and power cord, both of which are removable, and easily replaceable. Only with theyd included a DVI cable, as well, but no matter, its a great package. Setup was fairly easy. It took me a wee bit of searching to find the hidden buttons, which were tucked away, under the lower right corner of the screen. I do with manufacturers would stop doing that, as it makes life miserable for us sight impaired customers. Id love it if theyd put the buttons right in the center, and front of the lower bezel plate, and if theyd make the buttons half inch in size, the way they were made in the 70s, and 80s, so we could actually find, and see them easily. Right. Gripe done. LOL. The stand the monitor came with is beautiful, and all chrome plated metal. Again, very rugged. Ok, so gripe not quite done... I do wish the bezel were a full half inch, or so wide, and BLACK. I much prefer black bezels on monitors, as it makes viewing so much easier on the eyes. Right. Note to self: Order black gaffers tape, or black stripe tape. Yeh, thats the bezel issue sorted. Mounting the monitor was not a problem. I did not use the included stand, which Ill use to mount a big honkin model of the Enterprise on. Instead, Ive mounted the monitor to a DJ lighting stand, using o-clamps, and a vesa mount for 32" monitors. There are loads of vids up on YouTube which show how to do that. When I first connected the monitor to the PC, and powered on, the computers raster image was about half an inch off center, vertically, and horizontally. Theres a button I hit quite by accident, which auto alights the image to the bezel edges. I really like the fact the monitor allows this, as well as manual positioning of the image. Other than that, it was just a matter of setting your resolution preferences in windows, and job done. Ill need to let some time pass to see what the longevity of this product is like under heavy use, when I launch my streaming channel, and use it to monitor chat on a daily basis, but at the moment, I think if I had to replace it, I will likely get another one of these, only just with a black bezel. Oh, but then theres the black tape. Right. The colours on screen look fairly spot on. I also like that the monitor is fairly light, at less than 20 pounds. Sure made for easy mounting to the DJ stand, single handedly, well, both hands, actually, just on my own, really. I hope this review helps.

Excellent monitor I ordered 2 of the 27". Liked it so much that I already a 3rd 1. So now I have 3 monitors all linked together. Like that so much I ordered a 4th 1 just now. Reviews had me kind of worried.. Seem like every cheaper monitor like this had horror stories so I had a hard time picking which one. the 3 I Got are fantastic. Resolution is still very good for office work and one of my Monitors for running stock news things like that very clear. I think 27" is the biggest you want to go after that I think You would start suffering on resolution. Plus in my case Im going 2 monitors wide and 2 vertical I dont think youd wanna go any wider would be very hard moving your head around just to see the screens be more annoying to look left and right this is the perfect size.... Still very wide. Very happy with my choice especially the for the cheap price. Plus my 5% off for the Amazon store card darn good deal.

My bad.. I assumed that a brand new monitor would work...After going through the process of taking down and disconnecting my old monitor, I attempted to assemble the monitor and they had clearly sent the wrong stand... Did not fit.. I tried several times... thought perhaps this is an issue of user error.. I didnt think so - Im usually pretty handy with assembly and DIY stuff around the house... So I had my husband give it a try.. He is a maintenance mechanic and very much mister fix it... he tried several times and concluded the same... wrong stand... Very close BUT does not match the pattern and will not lock the monitor in place.. Either that or it was defective because we were able to briefly apply it but the simple act of re-positioning the monitor on my desk top dislodged the monitor from the stand.. Either way - wrong part or defective part = BAD quality... I have never had this happen and we have gone through about 10 around the house for various applications or TVs . Usually a stand will just click into place... Bummer I was looking forward to the larger screen... the other ratings were very good overall... Thank you amazon for the no hassle return.

The monitors themselves are great. No issue with the picture and love the small frame/big picture these monitors provide. 2 reasons why I am not giving it a 5 star... (1) the buttons on the bottom of the monitor frame are difficult to find. I had to put a piece of tape with a down arrow on the face so I could quickly find the on/off button and (2) connecting the base to the monitor was NOT easy. It took several attempts and was about to return the item when I decided to try it one last time. With effort on the last try, it finally snapped in. I shouldnt have to try multiple times and worry about stripping the part with each try to do something so simply. #1 above really isnt an issue...you can live with that. #2 should be addressed. However, once it is connected it shouldnt be a problem again - just dont ever disconnect the base to the monitor!

I almost sent it back as the black screen would appear gray at best. This was really frustrating as the menu controls on the monitor did not help. No matter how bad I adjusted brightness and contrast it did not help. As a last resort I ended up using the monitor settings under my Nvidia Control panel for my Nvidia 1080gtx. I was able to get the screen very close to black with those settings and digital enhances. Now I am happy and will keep the monitor. I truly recommend using the computers monitor settings-Nvidia Control Panel- not sure if AMD has an equivalent-otherwise this monitor would have been sent back.
