Getting older, needed larger screen to manage eMails and such. Works really good. Like the HDMI hook up as well.

Great monitor. Super clear display. Cant beat it for $100. Has all  3 ports. VGA, dvi, hdmi.  At first I couldn't figure out how to select the hdmi port.  I had read the instructions.  But you need to Press a button on the front panel to select which input you are using.  I did it and it didn't work.  You also need to unplug the cable from the computer and plug it back in to get the monitor to sense the input.  I did that and it worked.  It doesnt say it in the instructions.

Great monitor for the price. Unless you want to pay for IPS, this is a top notch monitor. I love the low-profile edges. The only drawback is the touch-button controls for power and the monitor menu are almost impossible to see in low light, and trying by feel usually ends up activating the wrong button. But as far as quality, seriously can't beat this short of an IPS monitor. Blows the TN monitors out of the water. I play games such as Skyrim, Witcher 3, ESO, and Arkham Knight on full graphics and I have no issues. Highly recommend.

Great monitor for gaming, very fast(little to no ghosting and much higher refresh rates), bright, and affordable with a lot of settings options(had to spend few hours back and forth until i got the right brightness/contrast/saturation levels for my liking). Looks like the customer complaints worked because mine came with Dual Link DVI cable(was able to run Overwatch with 100~130 refresh rates right out of the box) and no dead pixels. The only issue i had with this monitor is the built-in speakers(sounds weird, probably because the speakers are pointed upwards and I am not use to that) but luckily this is not something I use anyways.

Great monitor for the price. This was my second, but this one had a bright spot that looked like a bunch of bad pixels.

So far this monitor works great. It's a bit smaller (19.5 inches) than my other monitors, but works great on my new PC that I built. It only comes with a VGA cable but I already had a DVI cable and I used that. It is good 1080p high definition and I'm satisfied with it. I got a driver for it off ViewSonic's website. Windows had only installed a generic driver.

This monitor works great. It was very affordable, and had more features for the money than many competitors. The menu interface took a little getting used to, as the buttons are on the back. It was nearly intuitive. I have been impressed with the color range, and performance. I've used it for gaming, movies, and graphic design.

I bought this monitor on Cyber Monday for really cheap, and for that price I am very satisfied. I can get 1080p on it and the image is very clear. Of course you have to adjust the image to your own liking, which I did and it works perfect. It's huge, so if your looking for a big monitor this is it. The only downside is that it did not come with a DVI cable, just with VGA. Kinda disappointed about that.

One major problem that I had with it was that right out of the box, i noticed it had a tilt to the right. I checked on a straight surface with a leveler and I was right. But a little work on the screws helped the problem.

This is a pretty good monitor in my opinion. If you can get it under 150$ you should get it.

This is a great monitor, especially for the price.  It has 2 HDMI ports and 1 VGA.  The picture is as good as you would expect.
I use mine as an extended monitor for my laptop via HDMI.  It works great for that.  Since "upgrading" to Windows 8.1, I have a quirk with the viewable area, but that in Microsoft's fault.

I am very happy with this monitor so far; I have only used it for about two weeks.  It was easy to set up. The colors are accurate and sharp. I use my computer a lot for photography (PhotoShop) and I am happy with the way my photos look. The only negative is the built-in speaker; not very good.  I am happy with my purchase.

This is a great monitor for the money.  Color and clarity are great, lots of good options.  Very nice having the extra desktop space.

Excellent budget 23.8 in computer monitor.  It has a tiny amount of black bleed when viewing off axis, but nothing that is overly bothersome. The colors are vibrant and full out of the box with the default settings.  The stand limits the tilt somewhat, but it is adjustable within its limited range and works for most desktop viewing situations.  Having SVGA, DVI and HDMI input allows options in setup and configuration.  The mini audio out is a nice bonus to connect speakers since the monitor does not have built-in ones.  Overall, I am quite please with this monitor.

Dont know much about computer monitors but I really am happy with this monitor. I like the thin bezel look. Only thing I didn't like is the buttons for menu options, I think there should be an easier way maybe with a scroll button or something. But I am overall happy with the purchase.

Great monitor for the price, I own 2, it is my secondary on both systems.  For older system owners, be prepared for no DVI connection.  (HDMI which reduces it to 1080P, or display port are your choices -- every adapter failed for my older system, I finally purchased a new video card).

This is a great monitor for the price.  It is so light weight you can hold it with two fingers!  The only thing I would change is adding the ability to tilt the monitor.

I'm not sure why Amazon grouped three different monitor together, but the one I am reviewing is the VN247H-P

In terms of the specs, this monitor is great.  It has two HDMI ports, audio in, and an audio out port for headsets, etc.  The monitor has speakers which is decently loud and of decent quality (It's better than laptop speakers (HP dv7t in my case) by far, but don't expect it to beat dedicated speakers / surround sound systems).  It comes with VGA cable, a DVI to HDMI cable, and an audio cable.  If you want hdmi to hdmi, you will need to buy that yourself (I bought the amazon basics ones)

Now for what I mean by "work required"
First of all, the screen was badly calibrated when shipped.  Everything was washed out, etc because all the settings were near max.  Definitely run windows built in color calibration ("calibrate display color" in Windows 8).  The colors look much better after that.

Second, I may have received a semi defective unit in terms of the stand.  The hinge wouldn't budge when I first tried to tilt the screen.  I knew something was not right because I was close to breaking the housing on the monitor with the amount of force I was applying to tilt the monitor.  I then checked the instruction manual which does show how to remove the hinge mechanism.  Following that, I realized the nuts (hex shaped versions) were on way too tight.  I loosened them and the monitor was able to tilt normally.  Hopefully this is an isolated incident, because requiring extra tools to set up a monitor is not the way to go.

Third, as other reviewers say, the stand is a bit "flimsy".  I do not fear the stand would break even when left alone, but it does flex / wobble more than other monitors when the table shakes.  In other words, there is no need to shake the table, so don't do it and you will be fine.

Fourth, the placement of the ports on the monitor is TERRIBLE.  It's behind a flap in the back and due to the low clearance, it was really difficult to plug in the wires.  In the end, I gave up feeling for the ports and had to lay the monitor flat on the screen (on the protective covering it came in) and plug in the wires by aiming carefully.  If you need to constantly remove the cables out of the monitor, this isn't a really good fit.

(Non monitor related issue) Lastly, remember to switch the audio settings so the sound will actually come out of the monitor if you are using HDMI.  Right click the audio picture in the task bar > click playback devices > select the monitor > click set as default

Now after all the initial set up issues, I must say the monitor itself is pretty good.  The colors look great after calibration, the sound was better than what I expected (I was thinking average laptop speaker quality, but it is much better than that), and the response times are great as well.  The thin bezel also looks aesthetically pleasing.  If you can ignore the setup gripes and don't alter the monitor after the initial setup, this is a very good monitor for the price.
