1 Dead Pixel, funky sound switching. December 28, 2008
Although the price is OK and the picture is pretty good, there are a few serious flaws that will make me return this monitor tomorrow.
1. A dead pixel. That should be rare. I haven't had a dead pixel in 6 years on consumer electronics equipment.
2. The speakers are awful, and plugging in an external set of powered speakers to the earphone jack has some weird sound switching problem. I can get the sound to work by resetting the "surround" option or by resetting the entire system altogether, only to have the sound stop working when I change the input source. I'm sure it is connected properly - there is clearly a bug in the device.
3. Start-up time and tuning to digital channels with the built-in tuner is very slow. I've never used a digital built-in tuner before, usually using an external cable converter, so this may be the way it is supposed to be - but I don't like it.
Other than that, the picture quality is fine and it has a nice array of input options, which I like. Built-in scaling seems to work well, and the VGA input is fine. Luckily I already had all of the cables I need, except HDMI - but I'm not using that until I hit the cable company up for a new box.
Overall rating: meh.
 Nice, middle of the line TV November 25, 2008

I was able to get a hand on this piece of equipment for under $300 and so far I am rather pleased with it. The colors are good, the resolution is solid, and overall it is a versatile device, giving me a good gaming and TV watching experience as well as serving as a decent second monitor. It is slightly annoying that the base is inflexible, and it does take a painfully long time to start up. As a college student though, it sits proudly upon my desk and has served me well so far.
N2230W Viewsonic Refurbished October 20, 2008

Bought to use in bedroom for HDTV. Overall I'm using as a TV and have been satisfied. I have also tested as a PC monitor using my laptop with the HDMI connector. This unit had no dead pixels.
Picture is sharp and clear as an HDTV using HDMI with dish network HD. As others have stated the speakers are on the weak side. I had an old set of Altec Lansings with the subwoofer and now the audio is great.
As a PC monitor I found text to be on the fuzzy side but most images looked pretty good.
I give the Viewsonic 4 stars because - You must you the external audio to get audio that will be pleasing. As a TV this is a great value. If you are wanting to use this solely as a PC monitor I would give it 3 stars and would look elsewhere. Paid $250 on the net.
 lousy sound, non interoperable remote October 7, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
The sound from the speaker is tinny, I have plugged in a cheap set of PC speakers to get better sound. With the speakers plugged in, the audio cuts off. I am using it with a TIVO and Viewsonic does not use any kind of remote code that the tivo remote can generate, so I am forced to use 2 remotes. Also the Viewsonic remote seems to have limited range/strength, I almost have to point directly at sensor to get it to work. I have returned this thing.
Average quality and performing LCD TV July 17, 2008

I have purchased both CRT and LCD Viewsonic monitors and now this 720p HDTV. It's inexpensive and does the job but I expected more. I dislike the "stylish" stand with tiny narrow neck as the monitor wobbles easily. The remote and connector layout is a identical to the Envision. The menus are also identical. It appears a company in China makes The TV for various companies like Envision and Viewsonic. This is a problem for me as both lcd tvs are in the same room. This Viewsonic is the first purchased LCD to have a dead bright pixel. The screen is bright and clear with the usual slight light leak at the top edge. The speakers sound shallow so I don't use them. I have the PC sound connected to PC audio in with powered speakers connected to headphone out. This provides full range clean sound for both PC and TV. The tuner is great for HD content programming from a roof mounted antenna. Only the remote and power cord come with the TV. I had to buy a vga cable.
I'm returning it only because of the dead pixel, flimsy stand and remote that is identical to Envision's.
