    Beautiful 27" monitor
  

*by G***Y on Reviewed in the United States on September 14, 2016*

I guess this is the first review for this beautiful monitor, as it was released recently (VX2778 27" 256x1440).I'm not a gamer, but I'm using it for 3D apps at 60Hz. I'm comparing it to an old DELL 2407 (24" 1920x1200).-------- Pros:+ Bright, great contrast, beautiful colors (haven't measured the accuracy), crisp.+ 27" at  WQHD gives more real estate compared to 1920x1200 without shrinking the fonts too much. DPI is 109 compared to 94.+ Small bezel. Although it's advertised as "Frameless Bezel" it does have a bezel. There is a 1mm metallic bezel around the screen, and it's the only one you see when the monitor is off. When it's turned on, there is an additional 6mm black frame around the image, so the total frame is about 7mm. Still quite small. Bottom frame is about 1.8cm.+ Real buttons, easy to navigate menu, many options to choose from: game mode, web mode, etc.+ No dead / bright pixel. I didn't notice any IPS light bleed.+ The on/off light can be turned off (menu option).+ No problem going to sleep.+ It has a vesa connector.+ My old DELL had shadows issues (with anything moving), the Viewsonic has no noticeable shadows (but then, I'm not a gamer). Everything is smooth.-------- Cons:- Comes with just one cable: display port - mini display port.- No DVI input (all new graphic cards have a display port, so if you have a new hardware it's ok): it has a display port, mini display port and HDMI.- I had lots of problems connecting it. Maybe it was because I connected it through HDMI. The native resolution was not recognized. The maximum was just 2048x1152, and it was blurry. I updated both the monitor driver (from Viewsonic's site) and graphic (from nvidia), but it didn't work. I had to go in the nvidia control panel, and add a custom resolution of 2560x1440. Then it worked fine.- Stand is nice and good, but is a little wobbly, less sturdy than my old DELL (that was also much heavier).- Height not adjustable. Bottom of the screen is at 9.5 cm from the desk.Speakers are a good idea, but the sound is just ok.----Edit: there is one stuck pixel on a corner. Not that visible... Oh well.

    Awesome MS Office monitor
  

*by G***8 on Reviewed in the United States on October 13, 2018*

I know most people measure a monitor's performance by running games on it.  However, for me, 99% of the time I'm running MS Office software on it, as it is my home office work machine.  I've had it for about 15 months and it has been an outstanding display for what I do.Using Excel, a new sheet that includes the full ribbon at the top will display (at 80% scale, my standard setting) 56 rows at 24 pixels height and 39 columns at 80 pixels wide (default settings).  For many users and many applications that would be overkill, but I frequently construct or build very large spreadsheet models and the more columns and rows I can see with my nearly 60-year old eyes, the better.I have hooked up a second monitor, a 24" 1080p Dell that has also served me well for more than two years.  They are in "extended" mode and physically touching each other but because of the resolution differences I have not tried to display one spreadsheet that spans both of them.  I simply run a separate program (Word, Outlook or Chrome) on the Dell.  Were that to become a real necessity, substituting a second ViewSonic VX27780SMHD for the Dell would be awesome.  At the current price point, however, I can manage with my current setup.Text is sharp and colors are rich.  I work in a windowless home office so I haven't had any glare issues.  I use the stand, which allows for a nice range of height and angle (up/down and side-to-side) adjustments.Two things to note.  First, the Viewsonic is driven by both my PC and my FiOS box (gotta have my TV).  Interestingly, the default screen display is my FiOS box, and I have to go into the menu to select the Viewsonic (which is attached via DisplayPort).  I'm sure there is a fix for this but I haven't researched it - if anyone knows how to fix it so that the FiOS box is the secondary signal, I'd appreciate it.  The other thing is that, while it is technically a bezel-less frame (it measures 1mm), my setup has a non-display area of 1/4 inch on the sides and top (1/8 inch on the bottom, go figure).  It's not an issue for me and it may be adjustable and I just haven't figured out how to do it.  However, for the purists out there, I haven't found that the screen really goes edge to edge.  Again, it would only come into play if you were putting two or more of these side-by-side; otherwise, who cares.  I will say, however, that this 27" ViewSonic is only 2 inches wider than my 24" Dell (which has a 3/4" bezel all around).  If desk space is at a premium, that is a nice benefit.For the price, it may be the case as I'm writing this that there are 4K monitors that can compete with this, certainly if used for business software purposes where frame rates are not going to be an issue.  As for gaming, which I've done precious little of, the trade-off between resolution and frame rates may keep this as a leading choice, as 1440p is a big step up from 1080p.  I also do not do any video/photo work, so I cannot comment on its performance in that space.  In any event, I highly recommend this unit to anyone seeking a quality display at a 27" diagonal size that takes up as little footprint as possible.

    Excellent value and quality.
  

*by S***S on Reviewed in the United States on July 31, 2020*

I upgraded from a pair of 1080p monitors to 2 of these in 24".  The silver bezels are thin and attractive, the image and color quality is great.  The big plus is the pixel density of this resolution at 24 inches, which makes for a really sharp and clean display.  Fonts display smoothly and nicely where Windows used to make things look clunky.  I'm mostly using these for work and they allow for better use of screen space.  From spreadsheets to web apps, things are easier to read while showing more at one time.  This is a huge quality of life improvement.I do some gaming, but nothing like competitive or "twitch" based FPS.  With a 1660ti GPU, I've played some WoW and Guild Wars 2 at 1440 and max quality with frame rates holding steady at 60fps, which is good enough for me and all these monitors will provide.  The games look fantastic.  Because these monitors are 60hz, I rated 3 stars for gaming because I think most folks want higher frame rates, but if you're into more casual titles consider this a 5, especially when considering cost.My only gripe would be the menu system.  6 buttons on the bottom edge of each monitor and still the navigation of the menus is horribly counter-intuitive and confusing.  Thankfully, I tend to get a monitor set up once and never touch those menus again.  Ultimately, the job got done despite the lack of instructions or user-friendliness.Overall, I'm stoked about the bargain these turned out to be.
