I Like It

Pros: Excellent size for the price. Raised, easy-to-feel buttons. Nice swivel stand.
Cons: Buttons should be on the front where I can see what I'm pushing without swiveling the monitor. The raised buttons help mitigate this, but it still merits a loss of one egg in the rating.
Overall Review: This is my second Hanns-G monitor, and I will buy more in the future. Bang for the buck with Hanns-G is excellent, and I've never had a problem with the brand. Quality is excellent. I do not use the speakers, but having an audiophile background, I can say that anyone who expects good sound from speakers embedded in a monitor frame had better be prepared to spend huge bucks, assuming such a thing can be found. I play mostly MMOGs, so can't attest to performance for high-end gaming, but for my purposes this is a great monitor.
Good price, good picture, lousy inputs and controls

Pros: Excellent brightness and colors. Large selection of input types (but see cons). Good price.
Cons: No DVI. Using HDMI, monitor will not shut down via OS display settings; must physically shut down using on/off button. Buttons located on side of frame, not labeled clearly, and difficult to distinguish by feel.
Overall Review: I am not unhappy with this monitor, but I can't excuse the poor design choices. I would probably spend a little more on a better-designed monitor.
Not worth even the sale price

Pros: Clip is large and easy to attach. Neck is flexible for easy positioning.
Cons: Not enough light to read by. Two feeble LEDs don't even match the light from a birthday cake candle. It's like reading by the light of the moon, and not even the full moon.
Overall Review: Bought two of these as Shell Shocker Deal at half price. They weren't worth even that low price.
