ASUS 21.5 inch Ultra Slim Gaming Computer Monitor - Full HD 1920x1080, 1ms Response Time, Built-in Speakers, HDMI Port, VGA Port - VP228HE

Good quality and worth the price, you can adjust it but not much. Put please never use it as your main monitor.

The viewing angle is quite narrow. Really an average product.

Viewing angle is limited

I'm using this monitor with my MacBook pro and it's perfectly fine. It's not adjustable without tools but I don't needs to tilt it so that's fine. The price was excellent as and my family tree is much easier to read now.

I received this monitor yesterday and got it all set up. It has been hard to not be at my computer since then because I love having it so much. A little background, I am a very heavy computer user. I built my own gaming computer about a year ago and use it every day for long periods of time. Because of budget constraints when I built the PC I was only able to afford one 27" screen and it is what I have used since. It is a great screen but for things like working from home and multitasking it is a huge drag to use. I knew I would eventually need a second screen to make things easier. You can't beat the price on this. I looked everywhere and this is the best bargain I found between user reviews, quality, and functionality. I own a lot of Asus merchandise including two computers and a tablet and have never had problems with them. I am sure there are outliers but I am always confident when buying an Asus product. The biggest sell point for me on this was the ability to turn the screen vertically. Because of the amount of desk space I have, I cannot fit another horizontal monitor. I knew I would need to have something in portrait mode but I didn't want to drop the money on a VESA mount and have to hang it on my wall. The fact that this guy can easily switch to portrait on the stand is super convenient and part of the reason I bought it. The cords that come with the monitor are very short. I saw this in one of the product questions and underestimated just how short. I had to go drop 25 bucks at Best Buy for a longer DVI cable which kind of sucked but I don't really hold that against the monitor. It was just because of how I wanted it set up that led me to needing a longer one and I didn't want to wait for it in the mail. If you plan ahead for this you should be fine. The picture quality so far is great. Obviously you wont be running 4k games or anything off something like this but as a second monitor for media consumption like I use it is well above my expectations. So at the end of the day you just need a second monitor to unclutter your main screen that is affordable and a great deal then you have found it.

UPDATE 3/26/13: I played: Crysis 3, Dead Space 3, Skyrim, Doom 3: BFG Edition, Far Cry 3, GOW: Ascension, Mass Effect 3, and they all looked great on this monitor. I love this monitor and I definitely recommend it. ---- *So far I have tested 6 PS3 games with this monitor. (Note: the PS3 and Xbox 360 have graphics less good than high-end gaming PCs). *I received my monitor two days ahead of schedule (was shipped by Amazon). *This monitor is HUGE! and lightweight. *The quality of this monitor for the price is impossible to beat. What a deal! *I experienced no GHOSTING. *I'm using a HDMI cable I got from amazong for like a $1 and I compared the cable with the monster HDMI cable that came with my 60'' hdtv and I saw no difference in graphics (you may check out my review on that cable). *Some of the PS3 games I played looked outstanding while others did not but this is due to the games themselves and not the monitor. *If you own a gaming PC you'll enjoy higher graphics than us PS3/XBOX 360 owners. *My desktop screen looks true 1080p HD on this monitor; 1080p HD videos look great too. *The STAND that came with it is excellent; it allows to adjust the angle all the way down facing the floor or facing very up. Also, I put the monitor on my bed and I can freely move on my bed and this stand is so good the monitor barely even moves. Now I can play while on my bed and don't have to be careful at all about moving around! Love the stand! *This product was packed excellently; very secure and professional. I received a brand new product. *The default display settings were horrible but after messing with it for a couple minutes I got a great display. The preset display called "scenary" was the only and best looking one (the others looked terrible). I did try the settings offered by the top reviewer here but his settings were almost exactly as the preset "scenary." *The very first time I turned on the monitor, it was set to only work with VGA so I was forced to connect it to a laptop with VGA before I could actually access the monitor's menu and change to HDMI and edit all the other settings. *The speakers are terrible but this was expected; very low maximum volume too (as expected). :::GAMES TESTED/PLAYED::: *Uncharted 1 & 2: this game is extremely famous for its outstanding graphics. I finished the entire game on this monitor. The game looked absolutely outstanding from start to finish! Incredible/perfect graphics. I am now playing Uncharted 2 and the graphics are outstanding. *Infamous 1: excellent graphics; both cutscenes and gameplay looked true HD. Uncharted takes first place hands down but Infamous is right there with beautiful excellent graphics. *Sniper Ghost Warrior: this game is known for its no-good graphics. This game did not look good but we know it is the game and not the monitor! *GTA IV: shockingly this game looked terrible on this monitor. The cutscenes looked outstanding in true HD but strangely while driving vehicles the graphics looked atrocious. I was not happy at all. I don't know what is wrong. *Crysis 2: this game is very well known for its high-end graphics. The game looked excellent but not as outstanding as Uncharted. But let's not forget that I played the PS3 version - the PS3 console's graphics are limited and are not as high as high-end gaming PCs. Again, Uncharted wins first place hands down but Crysis 2 is right there at the top too. *Prototype 2: this game was criticized for its not-so-good graphics (e.g. IGN review) and it's true. I played this game on this monitor and although the cutscenes looked true HD the gameplay looked sort-of HD. Again, this is the game's fault and the PS3 console's fault and NOT the monitor's fault. Still I enjoyed and loved the game and it still looked great. *Modern Warfare 3: I only played a couple minutes of the game on the monitor but the game did not look as Uncharted and Crysis 2 and Infamous. This is probably because I am comparing in my mind every single game with Uncharted. I mean, Uncharted was absolutely incredible, and MW3's graphics could not compare. But I only played a few minutes of MW3 on this monitor so perhaps it is too soon to give a final verdict. -I need to try Skyrim, Bioshock, God of War III, Dead Space 2, AC: Revelations, and Batman Arkham City, and I'll report how the games look on this monitor, with the PS3 console. VERDICT: +5 stars. Love this monitor. I highly recommend it. The price + quality combination is unbeatable! UPDATE 9/17/12 School started for me here in NYC (college senior) and I have NOT been able to play at all! I know I need to test especially Skyrim and Bioshock but I'm busy with school, schoolwork, and the gym (lifting weights 5 days a week). But when I can I'll test the games! UPDATE 11/3/13: I have been busy and had not much time to play. I do have all the "top/best" games with me though, but I just have to find the time to play my PS3 games... I'm still happy with the monitor though. I was able to connect my iPad 4th Generation to this monitor with a cable (blacks ops zombies) and the game looked great. So I am still happy about this.

Muy buen monitor, cumple con lo que dice

Perfect for why I need.
