Decent no-frills monitor for the cost, but wouldn't recommend using for prolonged period of time since it has limited features to adjust display.

Not impressed, tv doesn't always pickup wi-fi signal even though it shows it's picking it up, tv is in the same room as router.

Just needed a basic HD monitor. The picture on this was not as good as I had hoped but not bad for the price.

This monitor works well,but design is poor. It doesn't even turn though it's clearly supposed to.

I purchased three of these, ultimately, to use in a multi-monitor setup. Some of the monitors has noticeable flaws in the casting of the plastic bezel around the display that made it impossible to fit them together for a spanned display. Upon returning these monitors, and asking for assistance locating three panels that lacked these manufacturer defects, the representatives at the store were extremely unhelpful and condescending, concluding that I should expect flaws like these with these monitors because they are inexpensive.
The performance of the monitors were satisfactory, but the associates were extremely rude and combative in regards to this transaction. I typically only purchase from Best Buy in order to walk out with the item, same day, as I have an Amazon Prime account and Amazon is almost always less expensive for the exact same item. After this experience, I will probably do even less of that.

This is a replacement, as my other one lasted 6 years with near constant use.

I purchased this inexpensive monitor to connect with my primary computer. It didn't have the correct inputs to use and I returned it. I thought maybe it would connect with a USB or similar port and it didn't have what I needed.

I got this monitor because it was suggested by the sales associate for the desktop computer I was purchasing. Out of the box the monitor didn't have the correct ports to attach to the computer. In fact, the picture on the box flap describing where to hook item up, showed more ports than the monitor had. It came with a serial port and cable with serial plugs on both ends. My computer had no serial port. I had assumed the sales associate suggested some thing that would work nice, so I didn't read the box before I got it home. I was deeply displeased with the Best Buy associate as well as the product... and myself.

Just bought this monitor a few days ago so I don't know how well it will hold up. That said, first impressions are spectacular, and I thought this item could use a bump given the negative comments posted. So here goes. Took it out of the box, screwed on the stand. Plugged it in and went to town. That's it! My windows 7 computer went straight to the highest possible resolution. The colors are true. The icons are crisp. The contrast is exceptional. 4:3 material comes through as 4:3. Widescreen comes in as widescreen. Total PnP. I have no desire to play with the settings as I would almost certainly make things worse rather than better. Maybe I'm just stupid, but if the monitor is working great right out of the box, why are you trying to download an additional driver?
For the user who complained about the driver download failure. AOC has apparently addressed that and my monitor came with a separate sheet detailing the workaround for the problem. For the user complaining about disabled options on the OSD, maybe he just needed to actually read the on-disc manual which explained under what conditions some options weren't available because my monitor had every option it was supposed to have. For the user who complained about fuzzy icons, I don't know what the problem may be other than the graphics card or an old operating system. For the user complaining about no explicit windows 7 options, I suggest he just try the vista options instead. After all, windows 7 is at heart a vista fix not a completely different OS.
Bottom line. I think this monitor is getting criticized by some for all the wrong reasons. If PnP out of the box without any special driver downloads this monitor blows away any monitor I've previously owned, then @ $120, what's the problem. As I said at the beginning my only concerns are buying from a company I had never heard of before and therefore reliability is an open question.
