Excellent Buy [Posted on 2005-02-14]
Works very well, I have not seen the brightness issue some reviews have mentioned, perhaps they have not installed the updated plug & play driver that comes with the device?? The instuctions for installing did not exactly match my PC but was able to work through it without a problem and the driver did make a difference.
Very Nice [Posted on 2005-02-19]
I hooked this Monitor up to my G5 Power Mac and wow nice screen and right now it working great. Theis is a very good monitor and I would say for the price go and get it you will not be sorry.
Great value for the money [Posted on 2005-03-03]
With the purchase of this monitor, I finally joined the LCD monitor club. I think it is time for everyone to join the club and what better way than with this monitor ! Great price. Great quality. Takes only a couple of minutes to set up. After the computer is switched on, it does an auto adjust and that is it.
I didn't give it 5 stars only because I didn't want to make it look like this is the best among the best. I have seen better LCD monitors than this. The images are a weeny little distorted - like letters typed using a type writer on a bad sheet of paper. This may not be the choice for someone who works on a computer 8 hrs a day. But this is the perfect choice for a home computer.
Good no-frills, inexpensive LCD [Posted on 2005-04-05]
I've had a BenQ FP731 for about six months with no problems. I bought it at about $300 and it had the best specs for the price at the time and that still seems to be the case. It is only 9 Lbs, which is good if you're travelling and it has a clean appearance and feels solid.
It works well pivoting to portrait view--if you change your video card settings or install Pivot Pro software.
There is essentially no manual, but the default settings are pretty good. I recommend it if you need to save money. IMO, high-end Sony monitors are the best, regardless of specifications, but you would spend 3 times as much as for this decent low-end monitor.
Two years and dead [Posted on 2006-08-17]
Bought four of these for an office job. One just went dead - screen almost completely dark but visable in the contrast. Fluttered a few times and now dead. Trying to find cause, but must be in power supply due to no back light either. Oh well for the low cost - what do I expect?
