    I tepically only use this as a second monitor for things like discord. The monitor is nothing special but could easily be an upgrade if you play games on a tv.

    It's cheap, but it doesn't work well with a Mini dock and the overall resolution is grainy. The circular chrome logo has clear triangles around the edges and it's quite obvious it shouldn't be used for gaming or HD viewing, let alone FHD. There are better, cheaper options.

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    if you are looking for a budget monitor in 2024 like me, this is not worth it - there's much better alternatives. The monitor is very cheaply built, lacks modern technology, is very dim - the brightness is very low. I returned mine after 1 day, its really that awful.

      Dear CherylM,
      We have verified that the KA242Y G0bi monitor does not offer height adjustment, as this appears to be a typo. We have notified the appropriate team to get this corrected on Best Buy's product page.
      We apologize for any inconvenience and we appreciate you taking the time to write this review.
