Last IPS you'll ever need.
By David Auth on Reviewed in the United States on June 13, 2022
Great monitor, and I have new respect for ViewSonic! Bought this used, much better value that way. Nice, fine resolution; refresh is great; colors are very good in gaming, browsing, and media consumption. It's IPS, so when sitting close (I sit about a meter away when actively using), large swaths of flat color still have that ghostly light-spill sheen (like when browsing, esp dark mode), but it becomes invisible the moment any more interesting content shows up. I've had to get used to the contrast and saturation as compared to my old monitor. Next time I drop cash on a monitor will be post 2030, and it'll be QDLED (which is what LED was always *supposed* to be), but I'll happily rock this beast for many, many years. Using DisplayPort on a GTX 1050Ti, so no HDMI 1.2 experience yet, may update review after the new compy. Caveat emptor, I didn't find the VESA mounting to be... complete. I may have been missing parts since it was used (?), but I bought a bog-standard mid-small TV kinda mount for my wall (2-rail, little tilt, etc), and had to rig up some DIY wood jank to get it mounted. I mean, I'm sure the base would have been fine, but for a 32" 4K, I wanted a wall mount option, so I had to kinda Jeremy Fielding my way to that. The mounting job is 6/10, mildly ugly, but it hasn't fallen off the wall yet, so we're good? Update Dec '22, now rocking a 6800XT on a 5800X3D, and I couldn't be happier even if I'd spent another $1,000 more. Very nice indeed, recommended! Windows color space handling and HDR are still... very Windows, but it's all good.

Good image but bad parts

The monitor itself when it worked had a a great picture, excellent accurate colors and fast response as advertised. I was able to play games, edit videos, and everything was exactly how I expected. After a few months of use my backlight on the left side of my screen started to look dim but didn't think anything of it due to my lighting in my room, now it is completely off making only half the screen actually usable and not something that is usable on daily activities. When I reached out to the company they stated it is now out of warranty even though it was just used with general day to day use and not even a year old ( 8 months old). Not something I would expect with a name brand like this. I hav had products of theirs in the past with no issues but this product seems to have defects.
