Class monitor with annoying quirks

Customer Review

I have not at all much to report on this monitor. I chose the medium variant with HDMI without DVI.

The panel itself is really great, brightness / contrast / color / sharpness everything great!
(Activated with AMA) also playing a delight, no streaking even in fast shooter games.

The Drumrum ... well glossy halt would be kept clean, and a height adjustment does not exist.
The base is mounted stable and fast.
The menu is a bit strange, but well structured in itself. One can already adjust much, should the screen but leave to default. Together with the Windows7 color calibration (somewhat hidden but very well done) you ruckzuck a super picture super colors.

The one star I have to pull off yet:
HDMI only works when you first connect the monitor to VGA and then activate the option in the menu that is to be automatically switched to HDMI. I had an old laptop to use to connect my PC to the monitor can, because my PC has no VGA on the graphics card.
We read here at the comments that switching should be possible by repeatedly pressing "Enter." Well, I have not tested it excessively, but I already herumprobiert a few minutes and not make it right away. Especially since none of the buttons with the "Input" was marked. One can not expect the customer to do research on the net or fiddle forever.
Power, HDMI cable, turn on, and then must come a picture.
From manufacturing side, it would be zero overhead monitor to spendieren a toggle button marked or activate automatic switching by default. Since you really can only shake his head.

In the same drawer also covers the fact that you only have to ask the underscan scaling to 0 in the graphics card driver, so that the image is displayed in full size. Again - a monitor must be plug and play, because there are no buts.
The pink splash screen after turning on the monitor would not need to be a bit unprofessional.

Ergo a really good monitor which allows you to enjoy work, media and games alike, at a great price. Since schliert and whimpers nothing, really good. These quirks are still angry and kundenunfreundlich, so I pull a star, even if you will be after a single device never aware of it again.
