Pros: Perhaps I don't get out much, but I have *never* seen color like this on a monitor before. It's so bright and vibrant. Unlike many other reviewers, I do actually like the "Splendid" modes the monitor ships with, which are actually just setting presets (that you can change, even). The Night setting is actually very helpful on the eyes when it's dark. I've searched for dead pixels and was unable to find any.

Cons: Huge fingerprint/dust attractor. But you'll get that on anything with a glossy finish.

Overall Review: The buttons on the front are extremely sensitive. They're some sort of capacitive sensors, similar to what you'd find in a touchpad. What's really interesting is that they activate when your finger is still ~2mm away from the button, so you don't even have to touch them. Ring stand is detachable, which makes this monitor easy to carry around. I do find it odd that, even though it was shipped in a box specifically branded for this monitor, no signature was required.

Pros: About the black border, that's actually an issue with the ATI card. If you go into the Catalyst Center, go to Desktops and Displays, click on the monitor in the lower left hand corner, and choose Configure. Go to scaling, set overscan to 0 and check "use the scaling values" at the bottom. Your black border will be gone. Happens with more than just this monitor, I believe.

Cons: None.

Pros: Awesome picture, easy to setup, super light and thin. Perfect for all my games.

Cons: None at all

Pros: This thing is Amazing. Right off the bat I notice the packaging of high quality works. Every part and cable are nicely packaged and Part numbered. The looking at the monitor itself, light and sleek. Once I installed the picture quality.. is.. Amazing. So dang crisp. It's intense. I DID have to adjust settings a bit, drop brightness, increase contrast, drop sharpness, on natural light in order to get absolute perfection out of this thing. -If you're looking for a crisp, clean monitor for Gaming; this is it. VERY impressed. Great job, ASUS. (Just work on the ring stand, ha)

Cons: The Ring stand is new and needs more work with in development. But it DOES compliment the sleek design and super light weight of the monitor. I had to stuff something under the Ring to have the monitor angle at an appropriate view angle. Other than that, no complaints.

Overall Review: For the price and quality. Well worth the buy. I Strongly recommend this monitor.

Pros: Light weight, ultra thin... Image quality is beyond my expectation.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: Would be nice if come with a build in speaker, but it is just my personal preference.

Pros: Great color Great Price Very Attractive

Cons: Weird Pedestal/Stand No Speakers

Overall Review: I bought an ASUS LCD monitor last year. I liked it so much, I bought another. This monitor is replacing a recent purchase Samsung monitor of similar price. The Samsung really sucked. Unlike most LCD monitors, this monitor doesn't have a conventional pedestal. It has a loop which you attach to the back. The loop prevents the monitor from falling over. The front lower portion of the monitor rests on the desk. This makes this monitor of lower height than most monitors of similar size. The back of the monitor is finely finished. Meaning that the back of this monitor can be used where the back of the monitor is exposed to people, as opposed to monitors with ugly backs meant to be up againt a wall.

Pros: Very bright, very thin, doesn't use too much power. Contrast is phenominal so is picture clarity and detail.

Cons: Not a big fan of the ring stand, can't mount this to a wall because it doesn't have any brackets.

Overall Review: I hook up my roomates 23 inch vizio tv up to my computer sometimes for dual monitors. This thing puts that tv to absolute shame, if you want amazing picture this monitor is for you. Gotta love Asus

Pros: Great colors, Very Bright, and Lower Power consumption than an LCD, very happy with my purchase.

Cons: Doesn't butter my toast

Overall Review: I'd buy it again.
