iiyama G-Master GB2730HSU-B1 27" Full HD LED Flat Black Computer Monitor LED Display

This is a quality piece of kit. We bought the one with the adjustable base for an extra tenner and this was money well spent as the base is solid metal and allows you to move the screen up and down, tilt or even turn into portrait mode.The screen itself is wonderful and all the family can see the quality and image difference compared to our old 22" HP screen. Take a little time to set up and personalise and you will have the perfect PC screen. This would be the only negative as the adjustment buttons are fiddly and the method is slightly awkward, but you tend to only do this once and then you are set to go.

Initially I was puzzled by how poor this monitor seemed: I've had iiyama before and they've always excelled, but I spent an age trying to calibrate this one for day-to-day computing, with no good results. Fortunately, I stumbled on a review site which suggested turning the brightness right down, and hey presto things fell into place. Of the important settings I've found Brightness = 50, Contrast = 70, Overdrive = -2, Black Tuner = -1 and Colour Saturation = 10 to suit me. In the end the only fault I can find is a tendency to ghost when scrolling down web pages quickly, which might annoy gamers but which I think is acceptable at this price level.Build quality is good and fortunately I paid for height adjustment, which to me is a must.I've taken a star off because it really shouldn't be coming with the brightness defaulted so high.

Very pleased with this monitor and the inputs/outputs are ample for what I required.Easy to setup and video quality is excellent with hardly any tearing.Menu system is easy to use and understand.The 2w speaker output isn't that great, but didn't expect it to be. Worry getting a soundbar if you want better sound.I plugged a Bluetooth audio dongle into the 3.5mm output in the monitor and connected up my wireless headphones and the quality is great.

Overall, you're not going to find a better 1920x1080 adjustable monitor at this price (I got mine for about £170). It looks sleek, has good control of picture settings, and comes well packaged. What really sold me this monitor was its adjustable height and rotation. The stand keeps the height you choose without the need for a latch/screw, and combined with the well-weighted base plate, I can adjust the height with one finger without it moving position on my desk.Pros: - Excellent value - Unbeatable height adjustment - Well responsive buttons (with a sturdy click!) - Looks sleekCons: - The bezel of the screen is thin, but it also has an 'inner' boarder not shown in the pictures. It's only about half a centimetre and you get used to it fast, but it's something to be aware of. - The USB ports are on the back near the visual ports, which can be inconvenient to get to. Also, I have had some trouble connecting both my keyboard and mouse to these ports, so they are only really useful for flash drives (but again, the ports are a bit fiddly to get to).

Have been using the monitor for the last 3 days.The screen is stable, but the speakers are next to useless.Also had a slight mark on the base.I will see if I can live with the speakers for a few more days.
