I must have read every customer review of at least fifty to sixty monitors, both from here on Amazon, and several other online retailers, before hesitatingly ordering this one (VS247H-P). I say "hesitatingly", because a monitor is (or can be) a very scary thing to order. What with all of the horror stories about "dead pixels", and "stuck pixels". I was very scared to order any monitor online. But, living in a rural area inconveniently located far from any brick and mortar electronics retailers, I chose this route for convenience, and a fair price. I was not disappointed!
The first thing I did upon firing this monitor up, was to check for bad pixels. Not a one. I sighed with relief, and began to explore it's functionality. As others have stated, this thing is blindingly bright (slight exaggeration)out of the box. After adjusting that down, I went through the pre-programmed modes, and decided that none of these are exactly right for me for everyday general use. But it was not really a problem to get it adjusted manually. Just took a few days to get it to my liking. Now I find it brilliantly colored, sharp, crisp, and rich. I have no issues with ghosting, either while watching videos, movies, etc., nor while gaming. I'm sure that if I really looked hard, I could find some trace of ghosting during gaming, but I'd really have to look for it, and for the price of this monitor, who could complain.
I did, like most, find the base to be lacking in stability. But this is minor to me, since it's not unstable to the point that it's going to tip over from light jarring, or slight bumps to the monitor itself. I would say that if this bothers you, get a monitor stand to attach it to. I don't find it necessary myself. This is the only minor complaint I have for this monitor.
All in all, I highly recommend this to anyone wanting a nice, larger sized monitor. I am going to get another one for a dual monitor setup. I'm extremely satisfied with this purchase!
Edit: I did purchase another of this monitor for a dual setup, and I love it... now I'm looking at a third for surround gaming!!
