Good value, but perhaps pay the extra for their LED version…,
Bought this monitor solely because it was a size upgrade from a 19″ LCD widescreen, mainly to watch live TV a few feet away from the computer desk on a futon in the back room (read: not for primary DVD or TV viewing). This computer is our main desktop machine, but we don’t do any video editing or photo-retouching on it, just general home office work, so as long as it was a bigger screen from a known-name company for cheap, it fit the bill. The fact of it being HD spec was outside the main objective of this purchase. I’m hooked up DVI and have not used the built-in speakers – probably never will, so I can’t comment on analog VGA or audio performance.
If you’re looking for a monitor to replace what you have, this is a great deal. The only real reservation about it is that there is quite a bit of blue-light bleed all around my monitor, but mainly along the bottom where the blue power LED is. Dunno if the blue halo around the screen is from this LED or not, as there’s no way in the screen menus to turn off the LED itself without turning off the screen (which is logicial).
Basically: image is sharp (people who report fuzzy fonts don’t understand flatscreen monitors have a native resolution, and running the screen at anything other than it’s native resolution will degrade image quality), the screen is full-width (other reviews here of Yahoo and other websites not using the whole width of the screen is down to the people who program that specific webpage – it has nothing to do with the function or resolution of the monitor), and the colors/contrast are pretty good (save the extra blue bleeding). For general purpose use, this is monitor is a bargain. If you want to watch TV or DVDs more primarily on your computer, or if you’re going to be doing video or picture editing, spend the extra $40-60 and get the Viewsonic LED (not LCD) 24″ version of this monitor, also sold here on Amazon or other online retailers, to avoid the blue halo Viewsonic VX2450WM-LED 24-Inch (23.6-Inch Vis) Widescreen LED Monitor with Full HD 1080p and Speakers – Black.

Decent monitor for the price,
The monitor is clear, vibrant with colors, has good contrast. It is pretty good for watching HD content and movies.
Cons: While watching movies, the blacks are not as black as you would want for perfect viewing pleasure. Also, with darker pictures, light bleeds at the edges.
Pros: Price for the size is unbeatable, sufficient for most day to day purposes.
Recommended: Yes!
