Duration of ownership:
Strengths: Ease of use.Glorious image quality.HDMI connection.
Weaknesses: Doesn't seem to have a "sleep" mode.
Overall Evaluation: Sometimes I just sit and stare at this monitor -- the image quality is STUNNING! I can walk across the room from it and still clearly read 10pt fonts. Photographs and DVD movies are beautiful at the monitor's native HD resolution and I love being able to use an HDMI cable (rather than the heavier. less flexible DVI cable), especially when rotating the monitor from landscape to portrait mode. My computer is EnergyStar rated and shuts down various and sundry parts of itself to save power. When it kills the video card, the monitor runs a kind of "No Signal Found" screen saver -- I'd much rather it went into "sleep" mode but I've been unable to activate that option, if it exists. My concern, in moving from a 19" standard monitor to a 24" widescreen monitor was that it would overwhelm my desk. I'm happy to state that it does not. Although twice the physical size of my previous monitor this unit seems, somehow, unobtrusive. So the picture is overwhelmingly beautiful while the monitor, itself, is not overwhelming in the least!
