how is the display performance when eyesight shifts vertically? for example sometimes i sit upright and then in relaxed mode. will i need to adjust the tilt each time i do it?

Unless you're shifting your viewing angle quite drastically, you shouldn't have any problems. I can go from the lowest to highest heights on my desk chair without seeing much of an impact.

The image on the screen will remain horizontal regardless of it's orientation. So if you have it installed vertically, you'll still see a normal looking view

When I play something like battlefield 3 there is a bit of eye strain after some time. Not sure how much of that is the monitor though rather than the fast movements. The latency is fine. The main thing to note is that this is a 60hz monitor refresh rate. I can see the static dance around slightly more over a monitor that refreshes at 120hz. Though I imagine most wouldn't notice that aspect. For long hours of gaming that may make a big difference when it comes to fatigue. Something to consider.

It is a bit narrow but you can compensate for this easily.1. Make sure you have your colors, contrast and brightness calibrated via the menu. I had mine "red-shifted " when viewed at funny angles and as soon as I calibrated it to a balanced RGB setting it looked much more natural.2. Try setting it lower than you work and make use of the reclining stand. I work over the tablet most of the time anyway.

The tilt can be adjusted while the tv is mounted. The screen is either parallel with the wall, or angled downward slightly. The vertical pieces move together and apart to universally fit the mounting pattern of a wide range of tv's. Mine is a 46" LG LED and I had no issues.

Hey Donald, I just replied to you on another one of these discussions and will do likewise on this one. Regarding the viewing angle, do any other 8 series owners think it... well... sucks? If I move so much as 5 degrees one way or another, the colors (particularly the blacks) start to fade. Wondering if this is one of the concessions for the 8 series' slim profile.

David, yes, however, i have the monitor landscape and very low. It is ok, but because i have it so low the tilt is not really what i would like. i am not going to return the unit, because it is better than what i had, but the issue is that since it does not tilt far enough, the color on the monitor is weak. what i need is for the tilt to be be a greater angle as if i put my hand under the bottom and pulled it to me. i need that angle to be increased. if it where higher that would be an improved color, but i need it to be amost touching the desk. I use it aside a laptop and that is the reason it needs to be so low.Paul David, yes, however, i have the monitor landscape and very low.

Like any LCD screen, there is diminishing brightness as your viewing angle increases. However, the manufacturer claims 170-degree horizontal and vertical viewing angles. That's sufficiently wide for the type of application you describe, in my opinion. I use the monitor as a second screen for my laptop, and find it to be very good quality for the price.

Does it work in portrait mode just for browsing web pages? If yes, I will use it with a VESA vertical stand.

I'm a pretty dedicated gamer myself and I've had the monitor for a few weeks now. I could hardly notice anything personally. However if you really don't like the colors you could download the proper monitor color profile online and it will supposedly make it look great. Although I never bothered because it was fine to me. And I have no idea what the angle problem is. If you mean is the screen a little tilted or whatever I'm going to say that mine is perfectly fine. Hope this helps you make your choice.

Yes, it does adjust slightly to tilt up and down. But these do NOT work like the Ultrasharps that can be used horizontally and/or vertically. It's got a wonderful, clear large picture at a reasonable cost. I bought this for my father and he needed a screen large enough that he could see at his desk. So far, he loves it.

This is going to based on preference. I run this monitor in its standard configuration most of the time. I will custom tune the game settings for optimal visual settings. Hope this helps.

I'm also interested since my monitor will be above eyesight. I wouldn't want the resolution to look darker or wither.

can you adjust the center post up and down? I do not care if the monitors stay at the same level, I might want to lower the monitors to about 4 inches off the desk or higher when i rotate the monitors vertically

Hello M&A;,To adjust the monitor from landscape to/from portrait orientation is pretty simple. You'll just swivel the monitor while it's attached to the mount.Thank you for your question,Taylor W.VIVO

The viewing angle is great. I did a 180 degree walk around and you can see everything as soon as you steps a view inches in front of it. It's an LED tv so your going to have great viewing angles with minimum glare, unlike plasma tvs.

This monitor does NOT adjust vertically. I purchased 2 of these monitors and the "Mount-It! Dual Freestanding Monitor Stand for Monitors Up to 27" screens", to make them fully adjustable.
