Pros: First off, I bought two of these monitors for 129.99 each off Newegg...tha'ts about as cheap as its gonna get for a 1920x1080 21.5" monitor. Both arrived with no dead pixels which is a miracle in itself. I had to tweak the color settings a bit, but now they both look great.
Cons: The color setting on these things are HORRIBLE out of the box. The reds are neon to say the least. I set the collor temp to 9300k and did some final tweaking using the NVIDIA control panel for my video card and now they both look great.
Overall Review: No dead pixels....friggin awsome..... Horrible color...fixable.... Durability....no tellin....we'll see I guess.... I deducted one egg because of the horrible color situation and the fact that you cant fully fix it using just the monitor. Using the OSD and built in setting I was not able to fully correct the color imbalance so I had to turn to my Video card to help out....no big deal, but other monitors that I have worked with do not have this issue, hence the one egg dropped.....
