You can if you have the correct adapter cable and separate speaker system. The a/v cable that comes with the XBox will not connect to a monitor, but there are cables available that will.

Unfortunately, I can't answer the first question. The monitor accepts HDMI and VGA. VGA is the most common video hookup for about the last decade. Check you video outports first. The monitor is excellent, I have no complaints with appearance, speed, picture quality, or ease of set up. Hope this helps.

From the owners manual, page 6: "HDMI Connector connects to the HDMI connector on your display or TV" That's all it says about the connector, other than a diagram of the back of the computer showing where the HDMI connector is located. It says nothing at all about connecting an X-Box. I hope this information helps you make a decision. You might also check their support site at http://support.lenovo.com

The one I ordered came with a VGA cable, but then again it was the wrong model monitor. I'd try to find one just in case; it never hurts to have a spare!

Nope. It is 32-bit so it can display more colors than you can imagine and as an IPS monitor the colors are all displayed very accurately, especially the blacks.

Not really sure. Under the display's menu selections there is a "gaming" mode. When I pull up the display info in settings, this is what I see, but I'm only connected via VGA not DVI: 1920x1080, 68KHZ 60Hz, VS239H. Hope that helps.

I run the screen on 768x1024. I am not sure if it can run on any other resolution.

It has an HDMI port. So, depending on the monitor, I can often just use that. If the monitor only has VGA then I have a little HDMI to VGA adapter that I use. Bought it online. Was pretty cheap - just watch out which ones you buy. Some of the super cheap ones are not supported.

So sorry I can't answer this for you. I bought this as a gift. It was highly recommended but the folks I bought it for wanted the digital monitors so I returned it. Good luck.

I had to find the box in the garage! On the box it shows two ways to plug into a PC (computer): a D-SUB or DVI-D then there is a headphone/earphone jack and a HDMI jack for AV equipment. I'm still using the monitor even though it developed skinny little lines across the screen. I'm up to six lines now. It's upsetting that I didn't realize it was still under warranty when the first three lines appeared. I read that LG doesn't do the ends of their pixel rows like some other manufacturers and it could cause this problem but I'm no expert.

Yes you can and I do. You do need an HDMI cable or a DVI to HDMI. It works fine once you fit to screen, lower the sharpness, and put it into game mode. I'd say the only thing that makes this not a worthy monitor is the dot depth. That is basically how far away the pixels are from one another. If you are to close you can actually see the pixel borders, but if you a about a foot and a half away Id say you cant see them any more.

I played bf3 and bf4 on it and I did not notice any ghosting or slow response time. Colors were great. However it broke after 18 months. Warranty is only 1 year. I strongly recommend this monitor instead. ASUS PB278Q 27" WQHD 2560x1440 PLS/ IPS DisplayPort HDMI DVI-D VGA Ergonomic Back-lit LED MonitorWorks great for fps, equal or maybe better PQ and three years warranty

I don't know. I haven't used the other monitors. It is an excellent monitor for the price paid, the reviews were overall positive, AND my daughter has used two of them for over a year and is very pleased with their performance which is why I bought it.

I returned mine. Noticed acer has proprietary drivers. Would not except updated drivers from nVidia for 3D gameplay.

Just got the unit. I used it with my Acer k132. HDMI 3D works great. I also used an HDMI to VGA adapter but got nothing. The message on the projector is "signal not supported". I hope that helps.

At 1920x1200, the T260HD is a 16:10 ratio, but it can support a 4:3 ratio. It will just have black bars on the left an right of the screen. As for connection, your options are HDMI, DVI or VGA (which is listed as included in the box). You'll have to look at your laptop to see what your video card can output. Note that with DVI and VGA, there will be no audio. That will require a different cable.

I was waiting to purchase one of these but the lack of hdmi is a deal-breaker for me. I'd rather not go to the acer timeline 1810t but I'll have to if you don't follow through with the spec on your website.Bill (a sad, lost buyer)
