Summary: At first I appeared to have several dark pixels, but the next day I rechecked and found none. They fixed themselves??? Note: The ASUS warranty allows 2 bright of 4 dark pixels. The 'confusing' OCD that some reviewers complained of is really not that bad. So, a little confusing yes, but a few minutes fiddling and you can use it without trouble. Off-angle performance not really really great, but totally satisfactory for me. Fast response avoids jerky scrolling. I use monitor for normal computer work.

Great PC Monitor for the price.
by kspitzer on April 28, 2010
Pros: The screen is clear, crisp and with beautiful bright colors. ASUS screens are a little longer than other manufacturer's screens.
Cons: No HDTV Tuner. Now days people like to watch news from TV while at their desk. I would like to see two HDMI connectors instead of one.
Summary: Great PC Monitor for the price. Just missing a few extras.

DVI Input from PC is Beautiful but HDMI looks faded!
by JamesAndersonJr on October 8, 2011
Pros: Slick black shinny surface that is easy to clean, and looks great if you keep your hands off of it after cleaning with dust rag. Decent Image quality on DVI (see Summary).
Cons: A little dim, not LED, and only 60hz refresh rate.
Summary: This is a good monitor if you have sensitive eyes (like one of my blue-eyed friends), but thankfully my eyes are not sensitive to light and I can view very ...

Summary: This is a good monitor if you have sensitive eyes (like one of my blue-eyed friends), but thankfully my eyes are not sensitive to light and I can view very bright things. This monitors brightness is very limited, and clarity is just acceptable for a flat-screen of this size and type. Reliability is excellent(I've had mine for a little over year with no degradation problems. However, the HDMI output on the monitor from my PC is awfully dim, weak, faded, and slightly blurry. I don't know if it is the HDMI/Ethernet cord that is the problem, the HDMI version, or the Monitor, because I really don't think that it is the PC because I just installed a new nVidia GeForce 430 GT video card and the display from HDMI is awful. The DVI though seems to display more brightly and sharper, so I'm still relatively satisfied with this monitor. Colors are bright on DVI, and it is very easy to keep clean. I keep mine clean with a cotton cloth dampened with just a little spray of Pledge Multi Surface Everyday Cleaner I picked up at Wally-World. I knock down one star for the HDMI issue, but overall I think this is an excellent value for the now low price of $159.99.
