Pros: TV is good when it works!! Cons: I got a replacement a month after buying from neweg, after the first unit caused trouble not powering up. from Newegg.com Pros: The price was reasonable and NewEgg was great to deal with. Cons: It started out that the TV worked fine from a cable (coax) source, but when I hooked it up to a DVD player I was only able to get about 50% volume from the set when it was turned up all of the way. After spending a few hours on the phone with Viewsonic tech support, they determined that my DVD player was the culprit. from Newegg.com Pros: Cheap price. 1080p Cons: TV died after I used it 1 time. I bought the 8-18-09. from Newegg.com Pros: Price was good. Cons: Watched tv for 30 minutes. Second time I turned it on there was no picture. from Newegg.com but that doesn't help if the monitor doesn't work. Cons: Bought the last version of this model for my son. He used it for a computer monitor, to watch cable tv and play his 360. Video quality was decent, especially considering the size and the price paid. from Newegg.com Cons: 16:9 aspect ratio makes most channels short and fat, some channels look ok, 4:3 looks about the same picture size as my 17" monitor, Movie setting clips the picture top and bottom, panorama is the short and fat again. Can't find a setting that really gives me a good picture size/ quality for most catv programming I think the sound is poor, some may say it's good for a flat panel speaker set, I'm not impressed I have no problem turning it on w/o the computer on first, but I could not get hdmi to work, and it sure as **** isn't my $250 video cards!Shiney black case, dust and finger print magnet, I'd rather watch it than clean it constantly Other Thoughts: It fails as a monitor, has annoying bright streaks really noticeable with black lettering on a light blue background, to get a screen that's not distorted, squished or stretched, I'm having to use 4:3 ratio which isn't any larger than my 17". It fails as a TV, for mostly the same reasons, plus it's pain to navigate the menu to adjust settings when they disappear every time you change them. I should have got the zenith 37" , but this IS a bargain basement set and priced accordingly from Newegg.com Pros: This TV is great. Displays well at 1080p with great audio quality and software ability to increase sound output to about 400%. from Newegg.com Pros: PriceFlexibility of TV and Computer MonitorDecent remoteSet-up was easyTV was great Cons: Computer monitor quality not bad, but not as good as stand alone monitorNo VGA or HDMI Cable includedCould not get HDMI to work Other Thoughts: I bought this for my son to use at college. We got it up and running within 5 minutes. from Newegg.com With all possible graphic card and monitor options combined, I could not get a fine detail of text without eyestrain from all the noises and uneven pixel phase. Other Thoughts: I would return it but newegg's return policy won't allow me. I've had a viewsonic CRT for 5 yrs and I was hoping for similar quality, but this is nowhere near. I will have to try it with HDMI to see if there is any difference in PC picture quality. from Newegg.com Pros: Its a 22" with 1080i resolution nice really hard to find. I like how it has an input for most types on inputs. Its a great TV a good upgrade from an old TV if you are looking for a cheap 1080i, not too big TV I recommend this one. Cons: I couldn't get the HDMI working but I'm sure its my computer hardware problem because it was receiving signal but no image but its ok full true HD in a 22" not bad. from Newegg.com
