Love this touchscreen! I couldn't be happier with my purchase. I use it with a Velocity Micro Vector Z25 tower with Windows 8.1 operating system (The Velocity Micro computer is awesome with no bloatware and ultra fast SSD). Navigating Windows 8 with this touchscreen is incredibly easy. The sensitivity seems perfect and I can easily swipe between screens. The High Speed USB ports on the side easily recognize iPods, phones, etc. for charging and syncing with iTunes. Watching movies and playing video games is ultra crisp with this monitor's high definition. I am in a fairly shaded area, but I have noticed when there is a lot of sun there is a lot of glare. The glare doesn't bother me much as I use a Plasma TV as well which also has glare so I'm used to it and adjust. I don't use the built-in monitor speaker so I can't comment on the sound. I bought a set of Cerwin Vega XD3 desktop speakers which have great sound and deep bass and are relatively cheap, which I also purchased through Amazon due to the great reviews. This next part is something the manufacturer does not include in the instructions but should: When I removed the monitor from the box the folding stand on the back is locked (or so it feels) tightly against the back of the monitor. I assume the company does this so it does not get damaged in shipping, but there are no instructions on how to pull the stand out. After searching for a release button or something to unlock the stand (which I couldn't find) I decided to pull on the stand with some force away from the back of the monitor. I thought I was going to break the stand off. I tried several times to pull the stand away from the back fearing I would break the stand off. But finally I felt I had no other option and with a lot of courage and force pulled the stand away from the back of the monitor. You hear a loud snap as the stand releases from it's locked position. It was extremely nerve-racking, but that is how you do it, brute force. Once free the monitor has a great range of motion from 30-80 degrees for ease of use with the touchscreen. It tilts easily with one hand at the top of the monitor in both directions and stays firmly in the position you set it. I love this monitor, 5 stars!
