My Acer has just packed up, 8 weeks out of warranty, so need a new monitor! Wanted a IPS for a while and this seems a great price for the 23" version.

    How is the stand? I'm very tempted but a few of the Amazon reviews say the stand is rubbish and wobbles a lot. Does it wobble from normal typing?

    Got two of these.

    No problems with refresh time, no issues with the stands, very light.

    Only slight downside is that blacks arnt as black as my previous (4 year old and same price point) acer monitor, but after a day or two I hardly notice it anymore, and if anything the dynamic range seems higher, and i can see details in dark images that previously could not.

    for the money, absolute steal.

    Bought one and the screen was knackered - like broken from INSIDE. Of course, no bother with Amazon (its why I buy so much from them) and a replacement straight out. Thats OK. Bright, colours good.Good value, though I wished Id spent a bit extra and got the Dell 24"

    I've got the IPS225v for gaming. It's brilliant. Picture looks so much better than my tv. I dunno what the IPS mode is or looks like, I've got mine set to movie mode (eye popping colours) and it looks better than the other modes, so the whole IPS thing is overated I think.

    I've played high speed games like COD and Need for speed, I can report zero ghosting, so don't worry about all that malarky.

    These eye popping colours you speak of are thanks to the IPS..

    Cracking monitor, stand is cheap but if it wobbles then that's because your desk was even cheaper you skinflint. Mine is mint. Only downer is the inputs are horizontal not vertical which is not the best at all for vesa mounting flush to a wall.

    The stability of the desk stand is pathetic (or at least was on the two I have) - every minor movement caused it to wobble. In the end I just removed them and mounted the screens on my desk using a VESA monitor arm - a much better option in my opinion.

    Just to add though, they are brilliant monitors and well worth the money.

    I don't think so. The standard samsung monitors have colours that are just as good if not better. IPS is just to make colours more accurate to the source.

    ~Mine arrived today. Have to agree that the stand is a bit weak, so easy for them to fix but hey ho, doesn't bother me as I have a sterdy desk.

    The quality of the screen is fantastic, extremely slim, colours are very vibrant, much better than my old Acer 20" screen, well worth the money.

    Is the quality for streaming live sports better on monitors such as this than a 1080p HDTV?
    123Answer
    I would imagine that is down to the stream quality over anything else.

    I watch Sky Sports through mine on the Sky Player stream and it is certainly much better quality than on my old 20" Acer.
