Summary: So far, good, speakers work fine with me
Review: I'm just now purchasing my 5th of these monitors. I use them on our network and office. They are bright, clear, and easy to read. I've read some posts here about poor image quality. There is an "AUTO TUNE" feature that must be used on the LCD display. Failure to use the autotune can result in substantially less than perfect text and graphic characters. I'm just not buying my next display and every one of them have been completely trouble free. No dead pixels except for a 14" model that after 2 years has one dead pixel. For the money, I really don't see how you can go wrong with this display.

Summary: What a Bargin!
Review: I've had this monitor for about a month now and I can safely say that I made a very wise decision in buying it. I did alot of research prior to buying it and I was slightly put off by the brand name (I'd never heard of Kogi) but my doubts were unfounded.
You open the box, plug it in to your pc and your basically done. There is an auto tune function which gets the best color and clarity settings and, after I had set the text setting on my pc to true type, the text was just as clear as the graphics. Since then, I have never had to touch any of the settings.
The only thing wrong with it is the really bad speakers built in which are very small and sound tinny. I have other speakers which I use although if you're not bothered about sound quality, the built in speakers are fine.
Whether I'm typing a letter, playing a game or browsing the web, both graphics and text are crystal clear and with a response time of 20ms, you cant go wrong. It looks great and for $299, it's clearly a real bargin.

Summary: Good LCD Monitor for the Price
Review: I've had two of these for about six months and have been pretty happy with them. I've not seen any dead pixels and the image quality is pretty good. The specs have less than average brightness and contrast levels but to be honest I can't really see too much difference.

The only issue I have with it is that it doesn't take a digital input and tuning the display for the standard VGA can take some effort.

The autotune function works ok most of the time but it has some troubles with older video cards in particular.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Quality OK, but shaky auto-tune algorithm
Review: If the monitor can sync with video card output, the image appears ok. I have hard time finding a right vido card to get this monitor to show a good screen output. "Auto-tuning" does sometimes fail; image gets wiggly. You can do it by hand, and it will be ok. For the price, this is a good monitor. Also there is a wall attachment if you want to mount this in your bedroom - plus if you want to make this monitor into a TV.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: it is a good monitor
Review: it is pretty good with respect to its price. the picture is clear. problem is its compatibility. mine is set at 1024*768 pixels and 1280*1024 does not work well.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Lovely!
Review: Just got it out of the box - few minutes later I am working on it - typing this review. I love it. Being my first flat panel, its a little bigger than I am used to - almost like a 19" CRT. Could not fit heightwise in the location I had in mind for it - almost 18.5 inches from base to top, 17.5 " wide. (Not quite the dimensions mentioned in the tech specs. Dimensions (HxWxD): 16.9"x17.5"x8" )

I selected the 5-7 day super saver shipping for FREE shipping and the shipment arrived within a day, regardless. Perhaps, my location may be close to their warehouse. My home office has a lot of windows and I can use it without drawing the blinds - unlike my CRT. I just hope it continues to work this way!

(PS: I am rating this 4 because I want to leave room for a better product down the road!)

Negative: Seems to have a provision for a wall mount but no accessories or instructions.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Second one much better!
Review: The first unit I received had a large white line running vertical through the screen. Sent it back for exchange and got this one. Very bright, no dead pixels. Love it. Video cable could be a little longer, barely makes it to my computer. Thanks, Amazon for making exchanges so easy and thanks to Kogi tech support for their prompt and courteous handling of my initial problem. Still haven't tried the speakers, but I don't need them any way.
