There is an anti-glare coating on the screen, but it is a compromise between anti-glare and crispness so you will see some muted glare from bright lights but the image is crisper than you would get on a completely matte screen
Fortunately, the defaults produce a pretty decent image
Wonderful image, is frameless and unbelievable crispness
Both of these settings provide a much clearer image than the "Game" modes
The only critical thing I have to say about it is that the combination of it being lightweight but large on a very Insubstantial (but attractive looking!) base, makes the monitor fairly easy to physically jostle or bounce around unless you have very heavy desk
Overall, a very nice looking monitor that does the job, for a very good price.
It's amazing how big a difference 2ms can be.okpros:- sleek looking monitor- thin and lightweight panel- metal (yes metal
Very sleek and professional looking with it's silver chrome base
The narrow bezel helps the monitor maintain a clean minimalist look with little wasted space
Best thing is that it does not take up that much room on my desk.
I do not believe the user should have to do this though and packing material under one side to prop it up defeats any fashion benefits of its design anyway, so it just plain needs to go and be replaced with a real stand instead of the awful ultra-thin bar triangle thing
When trying out this screen, the most remarkable thing we noted about it is just how bright it is
The built-in speakers they come with are kinda of ok, althought I never used them, but is a nice thing to have just in case.

I've had it for about 15 months and it has been an outstanding display for what I do
I just wanted reasonably faithful color rendering, flicker free display with decent saturation and uniform display
It's the largest display I have, and it's both a gigantic, and beautiful display.
Somewhere I've read of problems interfacing a digital display with an older, analog connection, but I've noticed no degradation in the signal and the picture looks great
This Viewsonic on the other hand has a crisp, clear display and is plenty bright.
I wanted to replace the monitor in my office and wanted something that was larger and had better resolution
It's big, bright and has much better resolution than my previous monitor
resolution• Superior color rendering and intuitive settingsViewSonic offers number of features that appeal to wide variety of consumers
I'm running a GTX 1080, so when games are more demanding, I just turn SMAA down but keep the FXAA on, but if all else fails, turning the resolution down still looks
The older computer does like a different resolution, not available on this monitor, but I haven't suffered for it
Really a stupid design idea - had mine a weak and already several scratches - why Viewsonic, why?.
The Bad: first, one really bad/dumb design is the the front part of the triangle stand has a super shiny adhesive sticker across if that scratches super easy.
Beautiful image, nice design, plug and play with basic sound
60 Hz refresh rate is plenty for this cat, plus the ultra thin design is very chic
The design is awesome and the quality of the screen is outstanding as advertised
It has built-in speakers and sound isn't too bad by monitor standards but the awkward controls of the monitor make it very difficult to adjust volume along with all other settings.
The monitor has several neat features and controls that I don't even use because the controls are so bad they make any adjustments very frustrating.
(Dell Ultrasharp:+It has actual buttons, I hated the touch sensitive controls on the Dell Ultrasharp (Although the buttons feel cheap)+Minimal back light bleed (Probably because it's not bright at all, the max brightness is still really dull)+Plenty of menu options but the only one that looks semi-decent is "Web" mode
The terrible controls are a pain and are bad enough to warrant a full star deduction but I don't think it's bad enough to be a deal-breaker for most people.

Amazing picture and colors, best I've seen in a matte screen (the 23" Acers have good color and picture too, but unfortunately are ultra-glossy, which gives you terrible reflections unless you're in a totally dark room
and you'll see how glossy/reflective they are -- really annoying unless you're in a completely dark room or that doesn't bother you).Note also that the panel for Viewsonic
It would be a little bright for a dark room, but my wife likes a room with a lot of natural lighting.
Even in a dim lit room, this looks dark (with brightness 100%) compared to other screens (even a 2011 Macbook Pro)
