I got this monitor for Christmas. I am pretty picky about my eyes because as an Application Developer, I spend 10+ hours infront of a computer screen. After exchaning this monitor for one that yielded the same results, I upgraded to the professional line VP191b (more on this in a bit).If there is one thing I have learned about Viewsonic through the years, it is that there is a significant difference in each of its lines of monitors. This is to be expected for the most part, but you would think that the price point would be complementary to the product line. Not always the case. For example, when it comes to flat panels, the product lines offered consist of:
X Series - Consumer line
P Series - Professional line
G Series - Graphic line
This is not a comprehnsive list of all their product lines, but is what you will find in your average retail outlet.
The VX910 (notice the X in the model name) is a decent monitor. For $500 though, it is subpar, even for being a Consumer line product. The colors are good, but the quality of the display is substandard. Red hues in the upper left corners, noticeable pixelation during refresh and an overall grainy appearance make this monitor pretty average for the money.
Night and day difference between X series and P series!
The VP191b (Pro line) is a superb monitor. Beatutiful, crisp colors, smooth display. No pixelation. All for $550- thats just $50 more than the X series! Now, I understand that when this monitor first hit the market it was signifcantly more expensive, but today, I would strongly recommed it over any X series, the VX910 included.
