Pros: Bought this monitor to replace my 19" viewsonic lcd monitor from a few years ago.
Widescreen 16:9.
Perfect size 21.5".
HDMI
DVI cable included
Everything just pops out at you.
Text is clear and not blurry.
No ghosting.
Power button led can be turned off in the menu setting (under managment).
The annoying monitor status when turning on the monitor can be turned off in the menu also.
Movies, tv shows, and anime looks awesome on this monitor.
Cons: Really bright on default setting (90). Had to turn down the brightness to around 30. My eyes weren't used to the brightness of this monitor. Basically blinded me when I turned it on. You know when you look at the sun for a few seconds and turn away to get the weird after effects in your eyes. That's what will happen once you turn on the monitor. So I suggest you turn down the brightness down until you eyes can adjust to the monitor.
Speakers are not so loud. So get external speakers.
No headphone input.
Other Thoughts: Really bright at night even with the contrast and brightness turned down to zero. Basically lights up my whole room. I have to turn it off when I go to sleep.
