Viewsonic VX2258WM 22-Inch (21.5-Inch Vis) Multi-Touch Full HD Monitor with 1920x1080 Resolution - Black

 (11 customer reviews)

Screen is quite crisp and the 1920x1080 resolution looks sharp on this 22" screen. I've had this one and the Acer T230 - DEFINITELY go with this one, hands down.

I use as a secondary monitor. NOTE: you have to go into Tablet PC Settings in Control Panel to set it up to work as a secondary screen. I didn't know this when I originally set up, couldn't get it working and returned my first monitor I bought. Thought it was ViewSonic's driver problem. Later I discovered it's built-in to Win 7 and you just have to configure it (Control Panel > Tablet PC Settings > Display > Setup). No thanks to the manual or ViewSonic's tech support (said it wasn't supported).

I bought this monitor to see how it would work with a couple of applications I use. I played with the iPad before and had set it up to use remote desktop services to access my Windows desktop. The iPad was too small to properly utilize the programs so I thought a larger touchscreen might work well.. What I found is that when using a touchscreen on a smart phone or an iPad that you are basically holding in your lap works well however, when you are using a touchscreen monitor, that is on the desk or the wall, there is a tremendous amount of our movement of your arm when compared to simply using a mouse. After working with it for a few days I realized it would not meet my needs so I returned it. It does function very well but, for a stationary display, but for utilizing standard Windows programs and keyboard input, a mouse seems to be a more efficient input method. JMHO

Amazing clarity and crisp images. Touch screen is surprisingly accurate and easy to use. Speakers are not that great. An excellent overall value.
