    This was to be expected!

    I wanted a small secondary screen to display text and maps. As cheap as possible! I was not disappointed: a horror! I hope that LDLC, otherwise a serious company, will stop distributing this disaster ....

    Good for office use

    The image quality is average, but at this price, it's normal. At the beginning, I had 2 black bands on the left and right of the screen while it was configured in maximum resolution. You have to access the hidden menu of the screen by pressing 2 buttons simultaneously (see manual) to switch it to full screen.
    As described, only one VGA connector (15-pin) and vesa mounting possible. The stand can be removed.

    it's cheap

    no hdmi socket
    max resolution 1366x768
    colour and contrast rendering: poor
    sharpness of the image: poor
    my main pc is an MSI laptop. The screen has a resolution of 1920x1080 Colors, sharpness and beautiful rendering. The difference in quality between the two screens is enormous.
    I have an old, unknown screen (HannsG) that is almost 10 years old. It is as good as the Asus. It's not worth taking a brand to have such poor equipment.
    If I had to do it all over again, I wouldn't buy.

    excellent small desktop monitor; no more, perfect

    The monitor is a great little desktop monitor, no more, perfect. It's important to know the purpose of the purchase and its use, this monitor will be used for accounting and management, no need to buy a higher range, this little monitor does the job very well. PERFECT

    Disappointment

    I took this screen as a 2nd screen, and connected it to DVi with a VGA/DVI adapter... And unfortunately the colours are terrible, with a very poor sharpness.
    I may have set the thing wrong but nothing helped, CG drivers etc. I tried everything...

    Why do more and more?

    I'd highly recommend it for office use: a perfect service from LDLC, a very precise screen quality and an unquestionable working comfort. Of course, there are better things out there, but it would be foolish to spend much more in my case of use!

    Simple but effective

    It's ideal for simple office use: I've been using it for months without any problems. A sure thing! A brand that does not disappoint: it is reliable for a price that is hard to beat. Why look for something better? Thanks to LDLC and its technicians

    perfect office use

    I ordered, delivered to my home by post, plugged in and everything is perfect. It's a great tool to use with all systems from Vista to Win 10. No adjustments to be made, ideal for office use, we have full width on internet pages or applications such as Office or Open Office. Excellent value for money, this is my second monitor of the same brand and type. Very good product.
