Rocks!!!
Pros: This thing is freakin' awesome! I will say that I was a bit worried at first though as I ordered it as soon as I saw it and "THEN" started seeing a few reviews about bad viewing angles, poor black levels, light bleed, etc. Well all I can say is WOW! All of my worries are completely gone! IMHO the colors are vibrant, the viewing angles are very acceptable, and I have no light bleed at all! Also, I've had no problems with the HMDI->DVI converter as some have mentioned and not even a single dead or stuck pixel! If you're in the market for a BIG (no....make that HUGE) screen that's great for coding, games, movies, etc. and you don't need professional level color accuracy then this beast is a perfect fit.
Cons: At this price and for what you're getting... I just can't really give it any cons. Sure there are a few things that maybe could have been done better...but they're all negligible (button placement, etc.). It's a great monitor and I'd definitely buy it all over again. ;)
Overall Review: The HD movie previews on the apple site look INCREDIBLE! In fact... I think I'm just going to turn the couch around and have it face the computer from now on. ;) Also, a quick note for comparison... I'm coming from a Samsung 216BW (also here on newegg) and I can honestly say that to me the viewing angles on this huge beast are actually much better than what I saw on the 216BW and that 216BW was a very nice (albeit now seemingly small) screen. Last words... Newegg Rocks! This screen Rocks! Get it now! :)
Works great!
Pros: Thin, flexible and light-weight cable that produces crystal clear image.
Cons: Nada
Overall Review: Using with a custom made Oculus Rift clone HMD and it's a perfect weight, length, etc.
Wow, Nice!
Pros: I can say without a doubt that these things are awesome for the price. They sound on par (if not better actually) than the original buds that came with my iphone...and as a bonus THEY ACTUALLY STAY IN MY EARS! I'm one of the few people out there that have ears that are just not 'bud-compatible'... but these in-ear types are staying in perfectly! Comes with approx 5 different sets of rubber ear gaskets (not sure what they're called) to try out. For me the smallest ones were a perfect fit. Now I can also make calls hands free in car, while out on a walk, etc.... so much better than the cruddy low speakerphone on my iphone. Definitely recommend it.
Cons: None really.
Overall Review: I like 'em.
