My Thoughts:
Well, originally I was going to sell this before I even
opened this to one of my friends. When he reneged on the deal I figured I might
just return it. I’m totally glad I didn’t. It is hard to find things that I
really don’t like about it. My main issue is that the speakers are mediocre but
what built in ones aren’t? Right now I am not completely sure what I’m going to
use it for but it has so many connectivity options that I can use it for just
about anything (Might use it to hook up my secondary Xbox 360 to). I you are
looking for a good 1080p LED monitor look no further this one has it all
(except 3D and USBs) for a fair price.

Thank you for the review. I've actually been looking for a good monitor with integrated speakers to save room on my desk, and because one of my table top speakers is sort of crapping out lately.
ReplyDeleteNo prob. The integrated speakers aren't the best but the are definitely sufficient for most situations. If its only speakers you are looking for you might be interested in "Cyber Acoustics Subwoofer Satellite System (CA-3602a)" which i am reviewing now. I should have a review with in 24 hours.

PowerNap allows you to control monitor brightness level or to put it in sleep mode to conserve power, and Dynamic dimming software automatically dims onscreen brightness when displayed images are overly bright or white.
