This is quite simply the best display for the money available today. I’ve used several, mostly Samsung displays, on my Macbook and have enjoyed them – until I got this baby and realized what a display on a Mac should really look like. This is quite simply the most beautiful display you can get for the money sans Cinema Display. The glass display and quality is unparalleled… Don’t hesitate. DO NOT buy it from here though… unfortunately, the price on Amazon and other places I’ve seen it is absurd. This puppy is only $299 at the big box store. I’ve owned this for, about 6 months now I think, and it has worked flawlessly. I’ve recommend it to every Mac owner I know and they have all been equally happy with it. Get it – you won’t be sorry!! (unless you pay the asking price here, I mean WTF Amazon??) …oh, and the speakers are total CRAP, but who cares?

Bought this for a fixed monitor to be used with our MBP. Excellent monitor – really like the height adjustment feature and the multitude of input options – I used the DVI cable that was included. Sound is pretty good also. Highly recommend for use with a mac – the aesthetics match our MBP and the graphics and resolution are very good too. Compared with the price of adding a 24″ Apple display, less than half the cost. Paid $299.00 at a big box store; a great price and good value for the money.

I have a 24 inch imac and have been wanting a second monitor. If you’re used to two monitors, one monitor, no matter how big, just doesn’t do it. Unfortunately the only monitor that looked like it belonged was the HD monitor that Apple says. It’s great, but way too expensive ($899 new $599 refurbished) There was no way I could justify that. I came across this monitor for $299. It is perfect. The size and the finish make it the perfect companion. Once it’s set up correctly, the color and detail are quite consistent with the imac. I strongly recommend this monitor!

This monitor is loaded with a USB hub, 2 HDMI ports, a DVI, and VGA port. The speakers are a bit tinny, but serviceable. It cost half of what a 24 inch Dell with comparable features cost. I’ve seen no dead pixels and image quality and build are first rate. This monitor is a spectacular value for the money and I recommend it.

I’ve had the monitor for a week now and am extremely happy with it. I did a lot of research before getting it at [...]. I was willing to risk it due to their return policy.

The feature list of the monitor is impressive and unmatched by anything out there. I also find that all the features work as advertised and have not been disappointed by any.
The ones that made me pick this monitor are:
- large screen (obviously)
- 16:10 screen ratio, instead of the 16:9 that is more commonly sold as widescreen. If you only watch DVDs, then maybe 16:9 works for you, but for any other computer application 16:10 gives a much better real estate.
- high resolution 1920:1200
- adjustable height!! there are very few monitors out there that offer that, and none even close in price. if you look at the 22″ and 24″ monitors they end up standing loo low ergonomically speaking and will make you hunch over, unless you raise them somehow. This is especially true for widescreens that tend to have a height comparable to a 17″ lcd.
- built in USB hub (maybe i’ll use it some day
- VGA, HDMI and DVI inputs (with ALL CABLES INCLUDED!!)
- sleek, modern, high-end look (for example the touch controls that disappear when not in use)
I was prepared for the following shortcomings from reading other reviews:
1. glossy, reflective screen
2. bluish color tint of the image that is difficult or even impossible to correct
I found #1 to be completely unfounded! While the screen is glossy and thus more reflective than the matte LCD screens, I compared it to about 5 other glossy monitors and 2 other laptops in the store and it was not any more reflective then those. Furthermore, in day to day use (I mean 12-14 hours a day) I don’t notice it at all. In theory, if I watched movies with a lot of dark area in them, it might be noticeable, but again, it is not different than the other monitors on the market.
The real issue is #2. The blue tint is quite noticeable when you have a white window in front of you. However, I was able to correct a lot of it using the video card Gamma controls and I don’t notice it anymore.
I was ready to return the monitor of these 2 issues proved to be problematic, but I am definitely keeping it. I know I would never be able to find a monitor this nice (and big) in this price range, and the blue tint issue is easy to accept.
A couple of more comments:
- tested the built in speakers, I did not notice anything worth noting compared to other built-ins. Note that if you connect with HDMI, you can get your sound that way, without connecting an audio cable. I have a nice speaker system, so I don;t plan on using them.
- the manual is useless, it does not describe the settings, and some of them are not obvious (acronyms). nevertheless, if you need a manual to set up a monitor, you have bigger problems mate
- the build quality seems very nice, everything is solid and stable.
- make sure you have desk space, especially if you buy two – I mean this thing is the same screen size as my old TV!
I highly recommend it.
