VX2475Smhl-4K

“For the VX2475Smhl-4K quite honestly we’re torn. For the monitor itself it may be too advanced for Europe right now to take advantage of its full potential with the lack of viewable content. For gamers yes absolutely. 4K resolution is already here for games like GTA V where it enhances the immersive gaming experience of the open world. For movies, TV and console games you can’t reach higher than 1080p so it makes the added expense of 4K hard to justify as an early adopter.

Perhaps the best way to decide if the VX2475Smhl-4K is right for you would be a simple question. If you need to buy a monitor now would you be happy to need to buy another in a year because it’s not 4K compatible? As consumers we like the idea of saving a few pounds and buying a perfectly fine 1080p monitor, but knowing that its expiration date is approaching fast isn’t something that sits well.

The VX2475Smhl-4K is a solid monitor. It does have a few minor issues like Polo shaped buttons that hurt your fingers during setup sessions and a heavier weight than its 1080p friends but as a 4K display device it’s a solid contender that does its job without complaining. 9.9/10”

“As far as the build quality and design of the VX2475Smhl-4k go, Viewsonic have created a nice solid product. The stand is sturdy and there is a reasonable level of tilt available. The Controls are within easy reach and the gloss finish looks decent, though we prefer matt as it is less prone to fingerprints etc. It would be good if Viewsonic mounted the inputs so they could be accessed from the side as that is easier however as there are three, it is unlikely that we will have to change cables often.

For the display, well that is a real highlight…with one caveat. Lets get that out of the way first. Basically, fitting 3840×2160 into a 23.6″ display means that out of the box you will likely have tiny text and icons etc. That is easily fixed in the operating system however some OS’s handle text/item scaling much better than others. Additionally there will be the odd occasion where changing scaling causes issues with compatibility. Try to play Starcraft 2 on this screen with “large” set in Windows 8.1 for our desktop items and the mouse pointer doesn’t work until we apply a work-around. (NOTE: This is not an issue with this screen specifically, just something to be aware of on the whole). That aside, the VX2475Smhl-4k produces nice bright, sharp images with excellent viewing angles. We noted accurate colours too with the various picture modes offering a varied experience which will mean there is likely a setting to suit you.

The viewing experience was also flicker free and we had no issues with compatibility, whether we were using a desktop, laptop or phone to connect to the display. Rounding things off, ViewSonic offer a 3-year warranty on the VX2475Smhl-4k which is a nice bonus and wins the display our recommended award.”

“If you want an affordable 4K panel on your PC, then this is a good one, regardless of whether you can actually use that resolution or not. For photographers, the resolution and colour presentation is critical, but sadly ViewSonic for whatever reason doesn’t support AdobeRGB on this panel. That leaves the VX2475SMHL-4K as a display that gamers who want 4K on the cheap might like, and perhaps someone with limited space and access to 4K movie streams. As lovely a display as it is, 24 inches just doesn’t seem big enough for this resolution, unfortunately. Quality 8, Value 8, overall 7.”
