Great monitor, but lousy sound

I love this monitor. I work contract and a company gave me a monitor to use, think it was the one right below this model, but saw the thing that it was supposed to help your eyes looking at a screen for 8 hours a day. I got another assignment and they gave me Dell. This monitor is much better than the Dell in viewing and I use my monitor as my main monitor and the Dell as my 2nd (3rd if you count the laptop) monitor. The color is nicer than the Dell too (although like the monitor stand for the Dell, it's adjustable, this one isn't.
The only thing I'd rate this monitor as a 1-2 stars is the sound. It's pretty awful. The tone doesn't seem too bad, but it's so quiet it's not worth changing your computer/laptop speakers over to it. It sounds like it comes from the back, so unless that's where you need them, not worth changing over. I don't think most of us buy monitors for their sound anyways, so it's pretty much a non-factor

The monitor is working just fine. However, there was no user guide in the box, nor any information on what the buttons on the bottom of the monitor are for. I will have to search the internet to obtain the information and make the monitor more useful for me.

Nice looking on and off! HDMI, DP, VGA. I bought 2 for a socked laptop set up and they're perfect for my use. These are exactly what I needed for my home office and they didn't break the bank.

ViewSonic is an affordable monitor that lasts and lasts. My previous ViewSonic monitor lasted over 11 years. If I get that endurance with this new one, I'll be very, very impressed.
