I decided on this monitor after reading up on it in Techadvisor (formerly PC Advisor) and their reviews in my experience have tended to be reliable.The monitor was delivered extremely promptly, prior to the quoted expected date range actually. Normally we have to add a couple of days on for the destination being the Isle of Man but this was quick!As I unpacked the items in the box I became disappointed in finding a power cable that was non-UK spec, as I continued to unpack I did come across a UK spec power cable though so panic over. Everything was connected and the monitor sprang into life.The joystick operation for all of the various setting takes a fair bit of getting used to but does what it needs to do once you figure it out. Sound isn't the greatest but we are talking about built in speakers here which are always limited. The sub-woofer works well enough and I don't get any vibration with it sat directly on top of my desk. The sound has a slightly muffled quality to it but is good enough for my use, others may wish to add their own but then the question would be whether this would be the monitor of choice anyway if that were the case. Adjustment for height would be nice but it isn't a major issue.Performance of the monitor overall after a couple of weeks is impressive and the quality of build is nice, it has a solid substantial feel to it.So far very pleased.

Decided to get a proper monitor instead of using TV for my computer. It does everything I want And there are lots of adjustments available should I need them. Loud speakers not very loud so have to use head phones but I am partially deaf and have no problems with volume on my TV.

I bought this monitor primarily for a home-office setup for work, although I also have a home desktop for general use and gaming. So the dual HDMI inputs were ideal for this purpose. The monitor will automatically switch to the active input, although manual switching is simple enough if both computers are switched on. Paired with a usb switch for my other peripherals, it has made using 2 PC's very simple. The speakers are surprisingly good. I don't expect much from built in speakers, but the addition of the mini sub woofer gives enough depth providing an all round quality sound. They won't cope with insane volumes, but I mostly use for gaming and listening to podcasts, for which they are more than capable. Another key feature for me was the eye care function (I suffer blue light sensitivity, and would ordinarily have to wear glasses for work). I've been using this monitor for nearly 3 months without glasses, and without any issues - no doubt this will be a standard feature on all monitors in 5 years time. Overall picture quality is excellent, with a wide viewing angle if you're the type of person that walks around the room whilst on the phone - no picture fade whatsoever from any angle in front of the screen. Taking all of this into account, along with a sleek design that will make your desk look cooler, I think the price is very competitive for the quality and features. I'd definitely place this among the best monitors currently under £400.

Vibrant, crisp colours along with a fabulous style to watch, this monitor is truly a delight. Colours are accurate and viewing angles perfect. Contrast levels & brightness are excellent for an IPS panel.Easy to assemble. Was up and ready within five minutes. It does really look the part.Highly recommend this monitor for all round purposes. You will not be disappointed!

Superb screen and surprisingly good speakers.

Can't use the monitor as it was supplied with continental type two plus for Europe which is illegal to be sold in the UK (where I am right now). These goods need to comply with British Standards. If I cut the plug off and install a UK plug I invalidate the warranty. I need it urgently but let down badly. Amazon need to get their act together.Amazon site says "UK power supply". It is not.
