Product Description

Turn your ideas into breathtaking reality with the 20" VP201b large-screen ThinEdge ultra-slim bezel LCD display. With astounding 176? ultra-wide viewing angles, UXGA 1.92 megapixel resolution, ClearMotiv broadcast-quality video technology and native HDTV high-scan 720p compatibility, the VP201b boosts professional productivity and heightens user enjoyment for video editors, financial traders, CAD/CAM engineers and power gamers. Ideal for multiple-panel configurations with height/pivot adjustments, digital/analog inputs and USB 2.0 high-speed connectivity, the VP201b is the infinitely versatile professional desktop display of choice.

Amazon.com Product Description

With a huge screen in a relatively small package, the 20-inch ViewSonic VP201B is only 2.8 inches thick and weighs less than 19 pounds. The TFT active-matrix LCD includes 1,600 x 1,200 resolution, 400:1 contrast ratio, 250 nits of brightness, and 16 ms video response, which all work together to provide exceptional clarity and outstanding text legibility.

ThinEdge design allows multi-display presentations.

The ViewSonic VP201B possesses an extremely well thought-out ergonomic design. With an ultra-thin 0.67-inch bezel, you see more of your screen and less of the casing, which is important if you're considering tiling or stacking multiple panels, or even for single-panel wall mounting. Digital and analog inputs further increase versatility and allow you to switch among graphics cards with ease, while the integrated 2.0 USB hub offers convenient ports for your peripherals.

The thin profile saves space.

The adjustable-height swiveling stand can be removed if you'd rather make use of an optional 100 mm wall mount. You can position the screen horizontally or vertically (landscape or portrait orientation) using the pivot feature, and thanks to wide 176-degree viewing angles, you can place the monitor almost anywhere on your desk or on the wall and still get a clear picture. Plus, the anti-glare coating deflects harsh room light. ViewSonic provides a three-year warranty covering parts, labor, and backlight.

Viewsonic warranty is worthless.......2007-03-12

I had this monitor for 2 years. One day it went black, power light would indicate it's on but I'd get no display. I arranged to send it into Viewsonic. After waiting a month, they finally told me they had fixed it. They then accidentally sent my monitor back to the wrong customer. After a week of trying to get it back from UPS, they decided to send me another one.

A week later I got the "new" one. When I turned it on, the whole screen had an orange tint to it. With gamma correction it looked almost decent (Red @ .68, green @ .78. blue @ 1.0 gamma). It was then I noticed that images would burn into the screen in 1-2 minutes. If I left a web browser in a position for 2 minutes, moved it, I could still see the text.

I called them and told them the replacement was unacceptable. I sent it in for replacement again. 2 weeks later I got a second refurbished monitor. This one has pretty good color, but images still burn in if left for 10-15 minutes. This is poor quality compared to other LCDs I have.

I've been a loyal Viewsonic customer for 10 years and I've recommended them to many friends. I will never buy from them again.

Warranties apparently are a low priority at Viewsonic.......2006-09-01

I purchased a VP201b at the end of 2005 and was thrilled with the performance and overall look of the produt. During the first week of July 2006, my VP201b simply stopped working. The power lights worked and it indicated that there was a signal, however no picture could be obtained. I contacted Viewsonic support online and was not able to diagnose the problem, so I called Viewsonic's support number and spoke to a representative. The representative realized that the monitor needed repair and instructed me to mail it to a support group called Teleplan in Calexico California. I carefully packed up my monitor and shipped it off to Calexico as instructed with UPS tracking notifications and insured it during transit. Viewsonic support told me to expect 10-15 business days for the repair. Well after 6 weeks I began to contact Viewsonic to ask for a status on the repair. It took 3 calls to finally get a status of "call back next Wednesday and ask them if a monitor has been allocated for me". I was told this would get attention. I did call back on the "Wednesday" and was told that one would be allocated for me and to expect it the following week. Nothing came. Again, a week and a half has passed and no word. I called again and was told that they are out of inventory and I should call back in 2 days on Friday to find out if they could give me at least some hope of receiving either a working VP201b or a suitable replacement. I have been a Viewsonic customer for12 years, but I do have to say that Samsung is looking better and better. If you have an opportunity to get a store or other third party warranty for service, please do. You will save lots of time and headaches.

Regards,

Unhappy Viewsonic customer

Absolutely Phenomenal.......2005-12-02

This will probably be the shortest review I've ever done, 'cause I've always held that the most useful points in a review are the negatives, not the positives - and folks, there just aren't any here that I can find.

There are a couple of excellent reviews below that describe the minor manual tweaks needed to get this monitor to perform at optimum. Well maybe it's just my luck but aside from setting the resolution to 1600 X 1200 there was literally nothing I had to do with this monitor but sit back and be blown away.

There are absolutely no dead or stuck pixels; there is absolutely no video smear in scrolling or DVD playback or gaming; and the image quality... !!

I've seen some certifiable turkeys in the LCD monitors of friends, family and employers - those washed-out, acid-blurred atrocities that no ethical company should even think of releasing for sale. This is my very first flat-panel LCD after years of CRTs - my last being a 19" Gateway CRT that's still in perfect condition (but HUGE) - and I bought it sight-unseen on the strength of reviews and a careful comparison of specs, particularly contrast/brightness and refresh rate.

I'd never dreamed that I'd find an LCD monitor with all of the richness of contrast, sharpness and vibrancy of color you normally only find on CRTs - but the Viewsonic VP201b matches the performance of CRTs with ease, almost with a kind of cocky self-assuredness, as if to say "No problem..." 8^D

As a way of underscoring the value packed into this unit, Viewsonic has integrated a USB hub almost invisibly to the back of the housing - which great little extra neatly wipes away the necessity of shelling out more nickels and dimes for a cumbersome standalone box at my station. Incredible.

This is the kind of product that makes you want to treat the producing company's engineering and management staff to a round of cold, frothy brews. On the often bumpy road of computer technology advancement, Viewsonic has proved itself to be a benchmark of excellence with the VP monitor line. These aren't cheap, but I'd consider this monitor to be a bargain at twice the price.

Buy with confidence and expect to be amazed.

Top Notch Product at a Great Price.......2005-09-01

It is really hard to beat a monitor with these features at this price. You can find better clairity with other monitors, but will sacrifice pixel response time (so much so that you will see streaking with fast on screen motion), and be paying 200-600 more. I have dealt with other 20(3)"monitors costing 2-3 times the ammount of this one with much worse results (Ie HP's 2035, Apple Cinema Displays, various NEC's and Sony's). Comes with 3yr warranty (including back light) USB 2.0 Hub built in. Monitor turn, piviots and adjusts for height with ease allowing good for customization. DVI and D-Sub. The nice thin bezel gives it a streamlined look and if you want to get multiple monitors the seams will be smaller for a better appearance. It is also MAC compatible. Mine shipped with 2 dead/stuck pixels, which isn't really that bad (pixel problems are inherent with this technology, it's the way it is. VS won't replace until something like 6-8 dead) The old "if you can't find any dead pixels, you aren't looking hard enough." saying applies here. My only complaint is the buttons on the front panel are hard to see and use, but i'll get over it. If you are using a CRT and want to get off, or just want more desktop space, this is your exit, you won't be sorry.

Not bad at all!.......2000-12-07

Some might believe this gadget is just heavy plastic and would produce very bad photos.

I bought this camera by pure curiosity. My use spanned from January 2000 to October 2000. I recently received my photos by mail.

The photos were not bad. From this experience, I have come up with some criteria for 3D photography:

1. You must REALLY be selective about what you are going to shoot. Not all situations warrant the 3D feature. Taking pictures of an on-stage show is NOT a good idea. The only thing that will appear 3D will be the other spectator. The show itself will remain "static", like background. Other times, subjects and the surrounding do not have enough "depth" to strike out. Taking photos of subject leaning against the wall will do no good. Family pictures are tolerable, if there are positioned in an oblique way, instead of the usual row fashion. In other words, do not rely on the 3D camera for the usual camera shots.

2. This camera is much more effective at close range. 3D perception is much more enhanced when taking subjects nearby. I took one with my girlfriend in a coffee shop. Chairs, tables and she really popped out in 3D in the final product. Maybe one of the reasons why you will not find any models of 3D cameras equipped with a zoom!

3. I think the film in the disposable camera is ISO100. So, don't try it unless under enough light.

4. Sharpness is NOT one of the camera's forte! Remember those 3D pictures on stickers or mouse pads? Not really sharp, eh? Same thing here. If you wish to take pictures of memorable moments, please use an ordinary camera! You might just regret the lack of sharpness.

5. Careful when holding the camera! There are 3 objectives on this thing. A misplaced finger will ruin the whole shot. When experimenting on how to take a shot, I realize that it is quite easy to put the middle finger of either hand on one of the objective. Again, careful.

6. The camera can only be used in one position: horizontal. 3D images are taken like that. Once developed, the photos appear as if you have taken the pictures sideways. Yup! You take your photos with the camera in the horizontal position; you get your pictures as if you have held your camera sideways. That is why the viewfinder is narrower in width than in height (as opposed to the usual "width greater than height" format in ordinary cameras)

So, it is a fun gadget. But the keyword here is "fun". It is not meant to be use as an ordinary camera!!

Customer Reviews:

Audio's okay, radio doesn't work.......2007-05-28

The instructions for this device say to turn up the input volume until, about half the time, the LED on the transmitter glows red. Any time the LED is on, the radio signal is massively distorted and monophonic. It's a shame, because raising the volume at the source is the only way to almost overcome the basic background hiss in the carrier. In an open room that has a metal object e.g. a refridgerator in it, there's maybe one place with your head tilted in one direction in which the receiver won't intermittently be overwhelmed with carrier-tracking noise, which comes across as 10 to 15 Hz flapping. One way to eliminate this noise is to plug the recharger jack on the transmitter into the socket in the headphones. Since this improves performance even with brand new totally charged batteries, my working hypothesis is that it provides a metal-to-metal path for the 900Mhz carrier and that overwhelms the free waves--but it turns the product into an especially awkward version of ordinary wired headphones instead of wireless. It's a crying shame too: the basic audio components have what my ears call a fairly flat and even response, giving a nice sound to piccolo as well as contrabassoon and tuba--when sound actually gets through. A pair of wired headphones with million-dollar transducers and a frayed, static-filled cable are not worth the time it takes to evaluate them, and I'm afraid this unit doesn't even qualify as the wireless equivalent of that. I would never buy another product by this manufacturer, as I don't think they quite get the weakest-link principle.

Amazing!.......2006-07-20

I bought these headphones a while back from a store called Factory Direct. They were refurbished, and I got them for only 20 CND dollars! And I must say, they are great for the price I got them for. I use these headphones for my PC, so all you have to do is plug in the receiver -- Pop in some rechargable batteries and go! Some reviewers have said that the headphones are like a 'vice-grip' -- At first, they are... But after a while wearing it, it will 'loosen' up -- I enjoy the headphones quite and bit and they aren't heavy at all! The charging feature is especially convienient. I would totally recommend this product to anyone seeking a good pair of wireless headphones, just make sure you look for the right price!

Great Buy, Cheap Price.......2006-02-25

I purchased this item to use at night so I don't disturb my wife...It is a great product and has worked great, (although I had to replace the rechargable batteries as they were dead, and wouldn't hold any charge). The reception is good up to 100 feet with line of sight, but only about half of that through a wall. The earpieces are comfortable and provide good sound quality. My only complaint is that after using the set for any length of time the ear pada can become uncomfortable as they are very tight against the ears.

Very happy with my Advent AW720 headphones!.......2006-02-24

Very happy with this product. I am able to walk through my whole 4 room apartment without missing a word or a song on these quite clear sounding headphones.It took a couple of minutes to tune the transmitter, but after that I never had to retune .

Advent wireless Headphones.......2005-09-01

I have purchased a few items from Advent a set of wireless speakers and wireless headphones I was pleased with both of them.
I can't say that for my recent purchase the AW720 The quality is not up to the standards I would expect from Advent.The ear pieces are skimpy and the head band hurts when worn (much to small. Idon't know if there is a larger set availible I didn' see any thing on line.\
I am sure I will have to replace the AW720 soon.
