    Good Monitor
    This is the first monitor I've ever bought and I have very little knowledge about them, so take my advice as an ignorant person who is just seeking a monitor for light gaming and school work.I was skeptical to buy this monitor because of the ratings and a lot of persons receiving the monitor with dead pixels but mine arrived just fine!The colors are very vibrant, as you can see from the photo my laptop on the left and the monitor on the right. This is a good thing.The monitor comes with the volume set to 50% so you have to go into the settings to increase it to 100%, it's very decent and loud enough. Good sound quality.No issues with playing games. I play cozy games so it doesn't require much from a monitor.Cons:When I'm watching a video that's very bright, I kind of see faint black lines. I don't know if that's just an issue with my eyes or the monitor though lol It's not too noticeable.To get into the advanced settings by pressing on the circle button a the back is very sometimes-ish which is frustrating. in fact, the whole settings aspect of it is difficult to use.All in all, I'm very happy with my purchase, I think this is good for the price I paid since it's considered a budget monitor.
