Most Critical Review

All three inputs bad after 3 months

Hanns·G HH-251HPB Black 24.6" 2ms HDMI Widescreen LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 DC 15000:1(800:1) Built-in Speakers
Hanns·G HH-251HPB Black 24.6" 2ms HDMI Widescreen LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 DC 15000:1(800:1) Built-in Speakers

Pros: Large viewable area Nice piano black bezel

Cons: Uneven lighting (it's a big screen though, I expected this) Controls could be easier to access and they feel very cheap. Slight ghosting in games but not too bad Inexpensive

Overall Review: This has been a great monitor up until a week ago. The screen started shutting off randomly. I tried every combination of input and output from my desktop and laptop computers and the same issue exists for both HDMI ports and the VGA port on the monitor. I called Hanns.G and I have to pay to ship the monitor to them where it will take 10 days or so for them to fix, then ship it back to me. In the meantime I am forced to buy another monitor. I will update my review after the repair process is complete.

Might be okay, except for...

Pros: Nice color, easy install, good price.

Cons: When ejecting one disc and putting in another, the drive still thinks the previous disc is in the drive. I cannot find a fix for this, despite installing the latest drivers. The only way to use another disc is to restart the computer. Seriously. And sometimes it still detects the previous disc after a restart. I contacted Newegg about the issue but it had been more than 30 days since I purchased the drive, so they told me there was nothing they could do and I need to contact the manufacturer. Thanks! First time Newegg has let me down.

Overall Review: If this drive was able to read the disc that was actually inserted at the time, it might be alright. Unfortunately for me, that is not the case.
