I bought this because I was hoping to find a 1920x1200 res monitor that I could use on my desktop in my bedroom - something I would work at then chill at bedtime with a movie. While this monitor is great for most desktop work, it is NOT a monitor you want for watching tv or movies. With color levels above about 16,16,16 (ie "almost completely black" it works very well and you will never notice...
Strengths: bright,large, cheap
Weakness: terrible warranty and use 3rd party companies to deal with warranties
DO NOT BUY!! Hanns-G have one of the worst pixel warranty deals...10 dead pixels before they will fix it. Have you ever seen a screen with 10 dead pixels?? It ain't pretty. They advertise they have one of the best in the industry but c'mon most others are 3 or even zero nowadays, 10 is 5 years ago. Yes it is pretty and yes the price is excellent but lets be honest its that for a reason..getting...
Strengths: compared to my previous 19" CRT this is mind-blowing. no dead pixels! very bright and high contrast. 3 year warranty! i think it's the cheapest 28" out there.
Weakness: no controls on the front, no game system ports on front, no usb ports in front. i wish it went higher than 1900x1200 but i don't think that exists yet..??
i'm an LCD n00b, this being my first LCD monitor but i am blown away and totally in love with this monitor!! i would definitely recommend it to a prospective buyer. i have ZERO dead or bright pixels, it worked instantly with Windows Vista and my video card. my buddy had a problem with this on his mac mini though, but seriously why would you buy a mac mini? buy this monitor.
Strengths: HUGE! Sharp. Beautiful colors. Great contrast. Includes all the cables you need.
Weakness: HDMI converter appears to mess up the sync when waking up from a sleep state. See below for my solution.
WOW!!! Once I got the monitor hooked up via it's HDMI connection I was REALLY impressed. The box DOES contain a DVI to HDMI adapter. Very nice of the manufacture to include the cable. In fact, it includes a bunch of different wires. I had bought an extended warranty, so I was glad to learn after the purchase that it had a 3 year warranty already. The quality via the VGA cable was good but the...
Strengths: The monitor is HUGE. Games on it are really fun. I found myself playing old games because they were so much better on it.
Weakness: Bad Pixels Common. Inputs aren't that great, it needs more inputs. Controls are on the side and hard to reach. Monitor is way too bright, it is blindly bright. A lot of reviewers say the same thing.
I’ve read about 100+ user reviews on this monitor and agree with what other people had to say. The monitor ships way too bright. You have to immediately turn it down. I still find it too bright, even on the low settings. The chance for bad or stuck pixels are very high. A sampling found 20/70 people received monitors with bad pixels. I ordered from a company that has an awesome in-store return...
Strengths: cost, no dead pixels, hdmi, tilt stand, color, power
Weakness: gamma, brightness, speakers, input
I just bought this monitor and I love it. This monitor preceded my expectations of a large monitor. It was bigger than I had hoped. When I first plugged in, I was scared of any dead pixels but I had received none. I got mine from ComputerHQ and it was delivered very quickly :) My only real complaint is that the speakers are horrible. I understand it is a monitor so having bad speakers is not...
Strengths: Bright, clear, sharp, tiltable, adjustable height, good viewing angle, fast response, PRICE, resolution, 0 dead pixels
Weakness: None that I have found so far all though I do wish the monitor controls were on the front instead of the side. Also, some buttons for setting different presets would be nice.
I purchased this monitor a couple of weeks ago and I am completely happy with it (and I consider myself a VERY picky and very well informed buyer). I use it mainly for gaming. I have been wary of LCD screens in the past when it comes to gaming but this monitor has fulfilled everything I could hope for in a gaming monitor. It has a high resolution, super fast response time, very bright picture...
Strengths: Blazing fast refresh, big sturdy base. Really crisp display.DVI-HDMI Inputs Looks better and more sturdy than my Gateway
Weakness: side mounted buttons a bit dodgy. Needed adjusting from factory settings
This monitor is a gamers dream! I run 512mb Radeon Graphics and online I am the King-Kong King Of The Rim-Ram Room! Just buy it. You will not be disappointed.
Strengths: Price! Clear Size, Good Quality
Weakness: Low Resolution
This is a very solid monitor and unbelievable for the price I paid ($500). The only gripe I would have with it is that it only has a 1920 x 1200 resolution (the same as a 24"). Other than that, the colors are great, the text is clear, and no dead pixels. Why get a $1500 apple 30 inch when you can get 3 of these!

Good till it died
Strengths: Price, size
Weakness: OSD, failed
Bought this monitor in early March, before the end of the month it died. I woke up one morning and found that the monitor was completely white, no picture showed up. I tried all the normal things but to no avail, unfortunately the store I bought it at no longer carried it so I had to get a smaller monitor. I thought the price was too good to be true, and in my case it was.
