Great Value

For the average user I think most will be pleased with this monitor. Its only $69 currently. I wanted a small monitor because my work area has only a small space available for a monitor and I am replacing a 17" monitor so this, for me, was a perfect size. They are very generous, in my opinion, including a vga cable and even a small Phillips head screwdriver, I did not expect those items to be included. No hdmi cable, though I was running vga anyway so it is just fine with me. Picture quality is good. I did tweak the settings, a little bit and also played with Windows resolution settings until I thought it looked the best. It will make a difference, because when I first set it up it looked ever so slightly blurry, but it is nice and clear now that I played with the settings. Previous reviews complained about the neck of the base not being removable. That must be an older version of this monitor because it came disassembled and the neck quite easily attaches or detaches with 2 screws. (I provided pictures) Also, the description is currently incorrect in that it says, VGA, HDMI and DVI. Mine has no DVI input (see photos) I doubt anyone is even running DVI cable but if you are and are planning on using it you will be disappointed. If your expectations are realistic you will be quite happy. For surfing and office work it is a great choice. If you are a photographer, graphic artist etc obviously you will want to blow more money on a monitor. Hoping for longevity going forward, if it dies on me I will update this review, but as current this is 5 stars for a small, inexpensive and clear monitor. Fast shipping, extra vga and screwdriver included.

FANTASTIC MONITOR & NO REGRETS.

Received my new monitor today and have been using it for several hours now and I can't rave enough about it. I hooked it up Via HDMI port and it setup on my Nvidia GTX 750ti graphics card without a hitch no resizing of the desktop was needed as it would be if you had it hooked up to a TV. The picture is clear and colors are bright just as you would expect from HDMI, All factory presets of the monitor is perfect for me, I am a gamer and it has no lag in the rapidly changing pictures that occur during a long gaming session but at 5ms I wouldn't expect it to. Power pack is self contained inside the unit itself so there's no extra pack taking up space on your desk a real plus to me since I hate desktop clutter, And the sound is pretty decent for being built in speakers on a monitor, which really don't bother me because if I play Farm Sim 2017 it is loud enough for me to hear the games sounds, and if I am playing something like Fallout 4 I prefer a headset anyway since those game sounds bother my wife, And I prefer the ability to hear things coming at me from all angles up close and personal as compared to even the best desktop speakers. I have no regrets buying this monitor and at a sub $100 price tag and it being a 20" widescreen it can't be beat.

Not Bad!

I researched for HOURS trying to find the best bang for buck monitor and I really think this monitor is it. When I review things I always factor in the selling price because you get what you pay for and I must say for $70 bucks this screen is not bad at all. Id recommend this screen to anyone looking for a budget screen for like a kid to play games on or to use as a secondary work monitor. On videos, the screen looks washed out which made me super nervous to purchase but that's not the case at all! After playing with the settings a bit it produces a very bright vivid image ESPECIALLY for just $70. BUT for full disclosure, there are a few drawbacks. If you're looking for a screen to do any type of photo editing or if picture quality matters to you more then a little bit, Id shell out the extra $30 bucks and go with a 1080p monitor. This screen does not look bad at all and for $70 its a steal but again if picture quality is important, it does leave something to be desired. PROS: - Surprisingly clear - $70 - Super Bright CONS: - Picture quality leaves a little something to be desired like when you taste a meal and its good but you feel likes its just missing a little something but you dont know what.

Surprisingly good quality with a ridiculously good price.

Purchased for my father's computer in order to get him out of his old 4:3 Dell LCD. I'm very surprised by the quality. If it were for me, I'd have sprung for an ASUS with Full HD, but this was extremely inexpensive and he doesn't do much more than browse the internet and play some basic games on his PC. I was surprised at the quality of the included speakers so much that I recycled his old Logitechs that came with a keyboard combo that I handed down a decade ago. There's no ghosting even in the Doom demo. This monitor is more than enough quality and the fact that it sells for under USD$100 is *insane*. I also didn't realize that Sceptre is an American company that has been manufacturing monitors for over 30 years. I thought it was a Korean 'B' brand. Bonus! We're both very happy with the monitor.

it's a steal

At $70 it's impossible to find a better hdmi monitor. There were zero dead pixels on the one that I got and the image is incredible. A couple side notes: 1) it can have up to 7 dead pixels without qualifying for a replacement under the manufacturer warranty (if this is a big deal to you then maybe consider spending more than $70 for a monitor) 2) the stem that mounts into the base is not easily removable. If you are going to wall-mount this unit, plan on prying open the shell to remove that stem.

Did not need to read the manual because it was so easy to figure out

I am not one for writing reviews but it this case I made an exception. It makes me laugh when I see some of the cons that were posted on this item. For the price and quality of this monitor I rate it Five Star Plus. I received this item and right out of the box connected it to my computer. Did not need to read the manual because it was so easy to figure out. After connecting it to my computer and seeing the results for the first time, I new I had purchased the right monitor. The quality of the display was far more then I expected. Very bright, Clear, and fast responding. Again, you could not buy a dinner for what i paid for this item. So for all of you who find fault with this monitor, you are the type of person that would find fault with any monitor no matter what it cost. For all future buyers I would recommend this monitor and know you will be very happy with your purchase. I have built many computers and repaired many monitors and what you get with this monitor for the price is well worth it. You don't have to believe me, but this unit is all Pro: in my opinion.

Works Perfect as a Second Monitor for Work

Let me start off by saying that I'm not a gamer, and I'm not a computer expert. I simply needed a decently sized second monitor to use while I'm working. I was looking for something reasonably priced with solid reviews, and this works perfect for what I need. If you're into gaming, or want something with amazing speakers, it sounds like this probably isn't the monitor for you based on other reviews. If you're just looking for a monitor to do some work on, like I was, then I would definitely recommend this. * As a note, the first monitor I got didn't work when I hooked it up. It had a bright white screen no matter what I hooked it into, and it wouldn't display anything. I emailed Sceptre's support, and they said that there was an issue with the display panel. They also said that I could send it to them to get repaired for free, because it's covered under warranty for a year. I decided to contact Amazon as well, and they let me exchange it for a new monitor. The new monitor works great, and Amazon provided me with a prepaid shipping label, so I didn't have to pay anything extra. I decided not to let this bring down the rating, because Sceptre's support team was very responsive and Amazon made the exchange extremely easy. Still, I thought that it was worth mentioning.

SCEPTRE FLAT SCREEN MONITOR

SCEPTRE FLAT SCREEN MONITOR. This replaces my ACER Monitor that finally kicked off after 10 years. This new model is much lighter than the old. I was surprised at the weight difference between the two. But 10 years in the computer world is like dog years. In the rest of the world 75 years have passed. This was as easy to set up as changing the batteries in a flashlight...IF YOU IGNORE THE DIRECTIONS, which are less than useless. Attaching the base to the monitor took about 5 minutes. The manufacturer even included a standard Phillips screwdriver- as opposed to a single-use piece of junk. Saved me having to hunt down a screwdriver myself. The Monitor arrived within a few days of purchase and is in perfect condition. THANKS!!

Great little monitor, highly recommended - no DVI though on mine (a 2nd HDMI instead)

The model I received was marked on the box as a E205W-1600, which according to this description and the manufacturer's site, should have VGA, DVI and HDMI ports. The model in the box had 2-HDMI's and one VGA (which is actually what I wanted - this matches the picture included in the description above). The monitor went together easily. The bracket on the monitor for the base is very sturdy and the angle adjustment works fine. The VESA holes (the smaller size) are obstructed by the bracket, but if you are hanging the monitor you can use the offsets (included) which will allow that to be screwed in as long as you don't have the pedestal installed. If you, like I, are placing a mini-PC on the back, the offsets aren't tall enough to get over the pedestal. However, you can screw one offset into another and get two screwholes that clear the pedestal. That was secure enough for my mini-PC bracket (a Beelink Apollo Lake Windows machines) The picture is quite good and the colors are accurate (in Windows, you'll want to adjust the Gamma which is typical and not an issue with the monitor). I was surprised at the quality, really very nice. The speakers are 2W, so temper your expectations, but they seemed to work just fine with an acceptable sound. You can adjust the volume using some buttons on the case of the monitor (or of course via Windows or whatever input device you are using)) You have an audio in jack (which I did not test, it's meant to pump in the sound if you are using the VGA jack) and a audio out jack, which works well with external speakers. The case has typical buttons for power and the manipulate the on screen settings and the aforementioned volume controls. And a button to toggle from VGA to HDMI1, HDMI2. This model "found" the active port when I was testing it. My box came with the TV, power adapter (it is a box on a wire adapter with the box at the plug, so it takes up space on a power strip). A VGA cord, manuals and installation hardware, including 2 screws to attach the pedestal, four offset screws for the VESA mount and interestingly, a little phillips screwdriver. The monitor is light, thin, angle adjusts and the speakers are small but not distorting and it has audio out for headphones/speakers. The picture is good and it took less than 5 minutes from opening the packing to having it running (including installing the VESA bracket for my mini-PC). Highly recommended, but please check with the vendor first if you need the DVI, I got two HDMI instead of DVI and HDMI - all these models have the VGA I believe.

Good For Gaming

I bought this monitor in order to play it with my Xbox One. It's a good Monitor, it wasn't what I expected honestly. You know "You get what you paid for". I feel like I got more than what I paid for since I'm able to play Dark Souls 3 with good graphics. It's a cheap Monitor but it's worth if if you're just using it to play games at your desk. Just incase you guys don't know, It has 1 HDMI Input Port 1 VGA Input Port 1 DVI Input Port I recommend this TV for anyone with a low budget looking for a good monitor.
