i will destroy now this monitor , i had 24 '' samsung its far better then this one

color is the worse i saw on monitors and no settings to improve that

I am searching for a 27" LCD monitor, so am interested in the comments.... but don't just whine about this monitor, tell everyone what make and model of display is better and has the features you want.... might just pissoff Viewsonic as well and make them lift their game...doh!

This reads like a flyer from BestBuy; is "full 1080P" to distinguish it from a previous model with 1080i? It seems that computer monitors have been all but discontinued and TVs are all that's left. Welcome to the wonderful world of 1990s vertical resolution. How useless, just like reviewing the thing in the first place.

At 1920x1080p, it is essentially a 27" TV and not much use in the real world. My 24" with 1920 x 1200 is more use.

No 16x10 = Fail

This is getting ridiculous. LCD vendors need to start increasing DPI if they are going to stick to 16:9. My PC is not my TV. It's a tool I use to create documents, browse the web, etc.

First they killed all non 16:9 laptops, now the same is happening to desktops

I want to know who they are targeting to sell this thing to?

At that size you would expect a higher resolution!
If it had a display port and a low price tag it would be a suitable cheap eyefinity candidate.....buy alas it does not.

Viewsonic, gimme a 1080p 27" high degree vertical mountable monitor with displayport and watch them rush out the door! Id buy 6 for my eyefinity.

Okay, let's get this straight:

- Not LED backlit?
- No 120hz capability?
- No 3D capability?
- Poor viewing angle
- Only tilt adjustable (no swivel or height adjustments)?

This monitor is a complete failure and the project development manager for this product should be fired immediately. NUFF SAID!!

What is it with fad of manu's making 16:9 monitors. For any professional, real-estate is important and 16:9 is not enough for many, 16:10 scrapes through though.

If you work on timelines (video/audio/animation), the 16:9 means a squished work space where, for example you can't show all the sequencer and all the mixer simultaniously, but it will just fit on 16:10.

2 HDMI's would have been nice and a 4 way usb hub in the base

FAIL

$400 is more expensive than most 27" monitors these days... admittedly most of the sub-$400 are 2-5ms, but there is no way that speed alone is worth the extra hundred bucks.

The only thing that would make this screen worth the 400 is if it were LED backlit - and it's not. Sorry Viewsonic, this monitor is nothing special.

no display port
no 1200 vertical dpi

I will not buy any more monitors without those two things.

Don't even consider it.

I had the 28" monitor, which broke 14 months into a 2 year warranty. (HDMI input stopped working)

ViewSonic absolutely and completely refused to honour the warranty because did not have the original box for their courier to pick it back up in. (no joke)

Fucking arsewipes.

A viewing angle of 160 is BAD. A good viewing angle is 176. So rally, nothing impressive about 160. Also, 160 means the panel is a TN-type, i.e. cheap and with pretty bad colors.
