Sharp,clear text,pictures. No dead pixels, No backlight bleeding. Round adjust buttons much better than flat buttons like the 720N. Comes with both cables plus power cord

Took me a while to adjust brightness and color tones. Windows default colors like Grey had reddish-brown tint. Stand is a little loose from side to side

Strong brightness, no dead pixels. All the adjustments you will ever need, very sturdy base. Power transformer is built into the monitor. Tilt feature is cool

none

Nice look, great adjustments on the stand, very sharp

This monintor is no good in portrait mode. The visibility range is only a few degrees before the colors and darkness get severely distorted. When in portrait mode it can only be viewed from the right side

A very bright monitor that has much to offer. It's easy to use; has intuitive controls; dual input; adjustable in almost every (pivot, rotate, angle, height); and features a nice and thin bezel - simple but elegant. This is a pretty sweet LCD overall....

The height adjustment is misleading: the lowest setting is still about 5 inches above the base. This isn't much of an issue if the monitor is not on a shelf, otherwise it may be a little bit too high for viewing

The stand, screen size

Way too bright even after trying many attempts to adjust. Sent back to NewEgg after having it for 24 hours

Good quality. No dead pixels. Adjustable stand

No noticable difference in picture quality than I had with my analog LCD

DVI-D, D-Sub, 1000:1 contrast, 5 ms response ; Amazing swivel stand, good quality image, no dead pixels

It doesn't make me a sammich

Good monitor, average colors for an lcd. Watched movies on it, no ghosting, fast output. Very stable and sturdy, has a heavy base. Upgraded from my old crt 19" kds monitor

The monitor is very bright. I lowered the contrast to 0 and brightness to 0 and it's still somewhat bright. During the day its doesn't seem so bright at these numbers (of contrast/brightness), but at night it's bright especially without desk light on....
