Most Favorable Review

ASUS VW266H Black 25.5" HDMI Widescreen LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 1000:1 (ASCR 20000:1) Built in Speakers w/ component connector

Pros: 1) Huge viewable screen area 2) Amazing price 3) Wide variety of inputs! 4) Pre-defined viewing modes 5) Built-in speakers 6) I love it!

Cons: 1) Limited viewing angle 2) Colors not realistic (compared to more expensive models) 3) Stand not height adjustable 4) Its sheer beauty caused severe retinal damage, leaving my optometrist perplexed

Overall Review: This monitor definitely provides the best bang for your buck! I bought mine for $330 before the $30 rebate. Any other monitor 24" or larger will cost you at least $400, and most likely much more, so this monitor is a steal! But it's only ideal for the average user. One who works with film production or photography might have trouble with the colors being pretty inaccurate, or have a tough time tweaking them to perfection. One who uses this monitor for group work where people are on either side might not like it for its limited viewing angle. The hues and brightness change drastically when viewed from the side, above, or below. I personally love it for its wide variety of inputs, which allow me to keep my desktop, PS3, and 360 connected simultaneously. And I still have room to connect another computer! The internal speakers transform this monitor into a very mobile high-def television. BUY IT!
