Review: I'd give 10 stars if I could - Sorry I wrote a book here.
For those of us with ADD (like me), in summary, this is an
excellent monitor given the price. For everyone who wants to read
the long version :-D I’d give it twice as many stars if I could.
I remember my first ViewSonic monitor back when I was doing
graphics work in the late 90s before Windows 98. It was an 18”
CRT that took up my whole desk but it was cheaper – at $1200 –
than any other comparable monitor. It was a great monitor and
served me very well. I’ve had several ViewSonics since and I will
admit my bias. In fact, I’m using a 24” one here at my desk as a
2nd display for my Dell all-in-one (company issue computer). So
anyway, I wanted to hook up a 2nd monitor to my MacBook at home
so I could both shoot tethered and edit photos on a decent
screen. I didn’t need a huge display, just an improvement over a
13” laptop display. I’m not doing professional work so having the
ability to exactly calibrate isn’t important to me. I just wanted
reasonably faithful color rendering, flicker free display with
decent saturation and uniform display. But when searching for an
inexpensive monitor I didn’t rule out any others and kept an open
mind. I ended up with this one and I’ve been very pleased with it
First things first: It comes in three pieces that you put
together with no tools. Base, riser and display. It snaps
together, you plug in a power cord and cable of your flavor and
you’re done. It’s auto recognized in Mac and within moments
you’re done. I’m primarily a windows user and my experience on
that OS is far greater and I find that current versions of
Win7,8, etc also have no issues with these displays. I have a mac
because it was a gift and my old desktop died on me. So for the
monitor, its an IPS display and the color is excellent and the
display is uniform across the entire display field. There is a
faint bit of hazing at the edges but it is a) only noticeable
with a very dark background color and b) it is a characteristic
of IPS displays in general, not a fault. I’m using it for remote
shooting with my Canon T6 and the Canon utilities, Lightroom and
Photoshop CC (which sucks, by the way and I’m moving to GIMP).
Love the color, love the size and the clarity. So, for about 15
times less than my first ViewSonic monitor, I get one that weighs
nearly nothing, takes up so little space on my desk, and has a
good bit more viewing area.
Review: High quality monitor with a lot of features for home use,
and small office. - I purchased a ViewSonic VX2276-SMHD 22-Inch
Super Clear IPS LED Monitor on desertcart.com because I have a
13.5-inch Yoga Pro laptop, which is very small for doing
homework. Although I am a university student, this monitor would
be good in home or small office as well. This 22-inch monitor was
intended for a home or a small office. Although, there are many
features that makes a monitor worth purchasing, its designs and
features, cost and shipping, and accessories are most
influential. Design and Features ViewSonic brand is well known
for manufacturing high quality products and they did just that
with this 22-inch monitor. This monitor is very versatile with
connectivity options. It has a DisplayPort, HDM, and a VGA port.
HDMI and DisplayPort serves as an interface to connect the
monitor to all compatible devices while VGA is used to connect a
PC to the monitor. This monitor offers many of features and
designs that can be found on larger monitors such as: • Super
Clear IPS and panel technology • Frameless design • Versatile
connectivity • Full HD resolution • Superior color rendering and
intuitive settings ViewSonic offers number of features that
appeal to wide variety of consumers. It offers a full HD
resolution which is better for picture quality than a standard
definition. It provides astonishing clarity and detail, whether
it be while working on picture editing or enjoying the latest in
multimedia entertainment. It is also designed with a dual
integrated speaker which makes a great realistic sound for
playing music and movies. The monitor is very thin with a
frameless bezel which makes it very light weight. It weighs about
seven pounds making it possible to be used for multiple monitor
display setup without any problem. Cost This monitor costs
$129.99 which is very expensive for a 22-inch monitor. Most
consumers expect an average 22- inch monitor cost about $100. The
ViewSonic monitor is more expensive because of its exquisite
looks. Most companies do not focus on designing 22-inch monitors
because of their low demand. However, with its frameless design
and super clear IPS, this monitor has a lot more to offer for
that price. Shipping and Accessories The product was received
four days after ordering. It was shipped in good condition
without any damages. As soon as it came, it was plugged in using
the cord provided. It came with a few cables such as a power
cord, VGA cable, HDMI cable and a sound cable. This product also
came with a stand and two pieces to bolt together. The manual was
not found in the box but everything was simple to put together.
However, this may not be so easy for everyone. Overall, this
monitor looks good and performs well. It has more connectivity
options than most 22-inch monitors. All these put together makes
this monitor a good bargain.
