24" ASUS 1080p LED Monitor: VE247H /w Integrated Speakers $150 after $20 Rebate, VS247H-P 1080p LED Monitor $140 after $20 Rebate + Free Shipping
 

Amazon has the "Asus VE247H 24-Inch Full-HD LED Monitor with Integrated Speakers [amazon.com]" for $149.99 after $20 rebate.

Was $159 on 03/14/2012 but I don't think there was a rebate on that. That makes $149.99 most likely the lowest price ever on Amazon.

Rebate is through Asus.

Damnit. I bit on the Asus sale the other day and this one looks much better. :-/

I have this at home and it's pretty bangin'

Same Monitor with no speaker's is also 159.99$/140.00$ after 20$ Rebate. Save a little money if you don't need speakers.

http://www.amazon.com/Asus-VS247H...d_sim_pc_2

Got two of these in my home office, would love to get two more. Saving money on this site is hard

Wow. If I hadn't bit on a Dell U2410 recently (at more than twice this price), I'd be all over this... dual displays would have been affordable with this. Whew!

True that! I've going to micro transaction myself into poverty. :omg:

How does it compare with the Dell refurbished one for $180?

Is the only difference between this one and the other one that was on sale recently (and still is, I think) just integrated speakers? And if so, is it really worth the extra cash, however little, to spend on integrated speakers when I have/mostly use a headset?

I loved the first two I bought. The third I got was completely washed out colors were muddy and horrible...ASUS must have changed panels because I tried buying 2 from amazon and 1 from newegg and finally gave up...so now I have 2 excellent older models, and one newer muddy one that no matter how much I tweak the color is STILL off from the other 2 monitors...but I guess I'd rather that for my triple monitor setup than have a completely different model so its whatever...I just think its screwed up companies can do this without a model/revision change...

Good Deal!!!

Does "Full-HD" mean its only 1080 pixels in the width? Im assuming so since its so cheap, but didnt see it in the quick glance I gave the description on Amazon.

i gave up saving money on this site

instead, i come here when im down, blue, sad
or got a raise, bonus, extra cash

there is no shortage of ideas here on how to spend every last penny I've got
lol

http://lmgtfy.com/?q=VE247H+resolution

PS, this same monitor was $150 a year ago, right around the same time...

http://slickdeals.net/permadeal/6...n-speakers

would jump on it right away if amazon didnt charge tax for in CA

What's the difference between the VE and VS series? Is it just the speakers?

The rebate is expired. I also ordered this for $10 less a few hours ago from amazon.

I believe the one on newegg has the updated/extended rebate:
http://images10.newegg.com/upload...13yh62.pdf

There's a new rebate for this month. Just click on "get forms" rather than "rebate forms for recent purchases."

Here's the pdf description of the rebate itself: Valid for purchases from 1/1/2013 to 1/31/2013. [images-amazon.com]

I know someone else answered with a let me google that for you... but yes it means it is only 180 pixels in height. (not width). Any time you see a monitor that claims it is HD or full HD that is basically what it means. Dissapoints me because I love 1920x1200 and 16:10 for gaming and productivity. (Actually looking at goign 1440 soon lol

still worth it over IPS monitors?

thanks op!

No way! I want one of the korean pixel guarantee ips panels.

These are phenomenal monitors. I've had 4 of them that I got a year and a half ago, and they have not disappointed!

However, I'm still not sure I'd pay $150 each for them. I happened to get them open box (though the boxes were new/sealed, with all accessories new and sealed) for a much better deal. Still, as for the monitor itself, assuming it's the same quality as what I've got, it's nice, great color, runs cool, and is energy efficient.

Seriously, you did not just ask that in a cheap TN panel monitor thread?

beware of the ghosting fix. google for more info. they are on sale to get rid of it. I am not falling for it

I know it's a different category, but just debating between saving money on this or spending an extra $130 or so for one of the korean numbers with the ultra resolution. any thoughts on that to help me out?

Man that never gets old hearing people complain about CA taxes. Thumbs down for you my friend .:bonk:

Yesterday I bought this(link) from newegg
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Pro...6824236174

hope to get delivery tomorrow, but I want to buy this(amazon) now,because after tax both have same price, but this one has in built speakers also.
so what is best way to return newegg one.,should I refuse to take delivery from UPS..Thanks

Just like no HDMI, no deal. Oh wait, they can't use that in this thread, thank GOD!!

Thank you. Just what I had been looking for!

Its true, tax is about 15 bucks and it kills the deal. But I bought the one with no speakers a month or two ago.

Have this monitor since 2011 so far is the BEST Monitor ! It will automatic sleep when your PC off, Has speaker so I can play my XBOX 360 on it. Cool

Solid deal, might jump on this. Thx

This. This is not a great deal. This is like regular sale price for this monitor. This is not frontpage worthy. This screams paid advertisement by Amazon.

I don't think they are Win8 compatible/capable!

Got both of these more than year ago, both at $150 each without rebates, both still running strong without problems to this day. Glad I bought it then as it's still more expensive now.

But this is FULL-HD, which means it has more HD than the Win8 capable monitors with just HD. :lmao:

You're missing the point. We ALL know you pay taxes in CA, we got it. If there's a quiz at the end of this journey, we'll all get the CA tax question correct. We're sick of hearing you whine about it.
:chairbas: :soapbox: :chairbas:

Mines already got delivered and there wasn't tax on that same monitor that I bought. The ones with the speakers will cost $10 more. I wanted to return it too for the ones with the speakers, but there's a 15% restocking fee.. I'll just find good speakers for cheap on SD.

can the one with speakers be used as a tv, with a satellite box ?

Nice!!

Just be happy with you git

If only this was a 120 Hz panel it would be perfect. ;( I'm getting tired of having to use VSync.

So I just bought a 23" HP 2311Xi (ips) for 180. Sadly I am very ignorant about monitors, and would appreciate advice on which is better. I do game a bit a few hours a day. I haven't unboxed the HP yet in case I found something better so any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Edit: just saw others post this question. Sarcasm suggests that ips is way better lol. I guess I'll just use the 2311xi I bought.

Does it come with one-year warranty? 90-day warranty? I don't see it mention anywhere. Anyone?

I have this monitor, brother has the VS without speakers.. for our uses I would rather have his monitor


Should something happen to your ASUS monitor, rest assured, you're covered with a 3-year system and panel warranty to protect it from the unfortunate. For even greater convenience, one-of-a-kind ASUS Rapid Replacement cross-shipping sends you a replacement unit as soon as the defective unit is in the mail—shortening your waiting time.

I prefer the lack of viewing angles for a non-IPS display at work :D

Good luck finding many sites that no longer charge tax in CA. They are a dying breed.

Yes it's not an IPS monitor but it's a good one otherwise and the price is definitely great.
I ordered one.

thinking aobut getting it and pairing it with my Dell SP2309W for a dual monitor setup. is that weird? a 24 and a 23 inch monitor with different resolutions? lol. any feedback appreciated!

Got this one at home and love it. Really nice looking screen. I like monitors with integrated speakers because then i can plug my computers speakers into it instead of the computer. So it depends on your setup, but I like to have more options whenever possible. The speakers by themselves are not very good imo. I really like it, the whole thing feels solid. I had a 23" hanspree that felt really cheap in comparison.

Do anyone know by chance if this will pair well with a VE248H?

They look exactly the same imho.

Don't count on the rebate. It really seems to be hit or miss with receiving them. I am still waiting on a $20 rebate from November.

I agree. I bought mine two years ago for $130 AR from newegg. It still looks like new. I was looking for second monitor, and bought ps3 display for $99. If only i didnt buy ps3 display, i would buy this.

Recieved notification of processing my rebate from ASUS from December without issue.

We are pleased to inform you that your rebate, with the Basic service level you selected has been processed and approved on 01/07/2013.

Your Amex® Reward Card will be mailed within 8-10 weeks

Stay away from this.

Look at this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WhteKcHpjoc

Not good. Bad reviews about ghosting

Yeah, that's totally interfering with my Microsoft Word experience!

You can fix this by turning off od

Got the VS247H-P the weekend between BF and Cyber Monday. Newegg had it for $140 - $20 rebate = $120. Pretty awesome monitor so far. I use it both with my Xbox 360 and as a 2nd monitor for my laptop (swapping the HDMI between the two). Has an audio port in the back so you can plug in speakers or headphones. Highly recommend it and would buy it again at the $140 price if I had to.

TU for epic responses!

price went up on Amazon :(

The one without speakers is no longer on sale...

is this mountable? i have a small desk, would def need to mount on wall if i buy it.

if yes, someone send me a link to the compatible mount?

Panels with only 1080 vertical resolution really suck. You will constantly have to scroll up/down when working on documents and/or looking at web pages. Get a monitor with at least 1200 (or more!) of vertical resolution. It'll cost a bit more, but getting away from this super wide/squished trend is so worth it. Most monitor manufacturers have jumped on this band wagon due to the reduced costs to make these panels which garners them more profits, but it has really screwed up what we can see and interact with on screen.

60 Hz TN panel...

Boring...

This is one reason why I don't trust user reviews much.


Every now and then there are IPS and VA panel monitors that go on sale for $140 or below but you probably don't own any of those.

Yes...let's just only believe that your opinion is valid and accurate. Thanks for stopping by.

VESA Wall Mount Standard (100 x 100 mm ) for http://www.asus.com/Monitors_Projectors/VE247H/
25° ( forward 5°, backwards 20° )Tilting Angle..

Same with the other one. http://usa.asus.com/Display/LCD_M...s/VS247HP/

It's a fact that IPS panel monitors have better viewing angles than TN panel monitors.

Most user reviews are written by people who don't sample enough monitors so their review can't be as accurate as it should be.

I own an 8 bit S-IPS panel 32' HDTV , a 6 bit e-IPS monitor , a 120 Hz TN monitor , etc.

One of my laptops use an IPS panel as well.

Any good deals on a 3 Monitor Stand? Finally pulled trigger for my 3rd one to make nVidia Surround work!

On the other hand, I don't usually sit off to one side, when viewing my TN panel. And IPS can introduce some issues of its own - besides the generally higher cost. I have seen some bad looking TN panels though, I think it pays to check out a monitor in person before buying. Also it is nice to buy from a place that allows no-charge return/exchange for any pixel issues. A stuck bright pixel in the middle of a screen can turn a slick deal into a non-slick deal real quick, lol.

ok, still a little confused. does the VS model (without the speakers) have IPS or not?

Does NOT have IPS.

I just purchased 24" ASUS VS247H-P 1080p LED Monitor at staples.com with 25$ off coupon
and price matched with Amazon with some difficulty.
Staple's web site doesn't say anything that the item is from 3rd party vendor but when i contacted them for price match they said they couldn't because it's the 3rd party vendor item.

I needed to talk to the manager to get it through.
I hope the rebate from Asus also will go through.

We use the VE247H at my work. Ive probably deployed about 100 of em and out of that, only had one DOA. I even got a dual monitor setup at home with these monitors. It is also VESA mountable, I got one hovering over my mac as I type this.....

Monitor looks amazing so far doesn't look like any dead pixels either. Does anyone have some good tuning options? Theater mode looks like it has the nicest results for the games i've been playing.

TN panel plus rebate?

m-e-h

I posted a deal for a 24" 1080p A-MVA panel for $160 with no rebate and it didn't even make FP. VA has better contrast and better viewing angle.

First front page deal for me.
You guys rock :) :heart: :heart: :heart:

Ordered mine from amazon on 1/16, and order status went almost immediately to "Shipping Soon".

It's 1/18, and still hasn't shipped.

Poo poo!

Having much more realistic colors can easily make up for backlight bleeding in dark scenes.

I've actually had more problems with TN panels than IPS panels.

The worst backlight bleeding I saw in person was from a TN panel ASUS monitor even though low end IPS panel displays tend to be more prone to backlight bleeding problems.

If you can afford a high end IPS panel ( generally $700) , I'd generally say it's worth it.
Professionals tend to use high end IPS and PLS displays and there are quite a few reasons for that.

I feel that putting $100+ to a TN panel monitor (unless it's 120 Hz) is a waste of money but that's because I can afford to put more money towards buying one that I'd be much happier with.
I have too many TN panel monitors already. The only one that I use now is the Asus VG278H since it runs at 120 Hz natively and supports 3D gaming and movies.

Need Expert Advice please. Which display should I get and WHY? ASUS VS247H-P vs ASUS VE247H

Unless i'm missing something it looks like the only difference is one has speaker's and one doesn't. I would get the VS247H-P it's cheaper and most people have their own set of speakers already.

I got one from newegg, looks pretty good
more colorful than the expensive IPS 1920*1200 monitor used at work
black is not completely black, though

:confused:Apart from speaker..is there any other difference between Asus VS247H-P & VE247H ??

Yeah, there's an extra "-P" in the model number.

Check the response time, I have the VS238H-P and it's 2MS response time. The VS238H (without the P) is a 5 MS response time. I'm guessing those are the differences. Any of these monitors are great for FPS gaming, in response to whoever asked about gaming above. Stay away from IPS panels for competitive FPS due to input lag. IPS panels have higher input lag than TN panels. This is why MLG (Major League Gaming) and other competitive gaming organizations all use TN panels at their events. This particular models predecessor was actually the official monitor of 2011 MLG events for Halo.

It's a good monitor.

dam, thanks for the clarification. In the description it has *select VS models having IPS, but I didn't know if it applied to this or nor

Anyone familiar with Asus policies? I wanted to jump on this but I found a cheaper (used) one on CL. Will Asus still honor warranty claims even if I'm not the original buyer?

Doesn't every retailer in CA charge sales tax? Therefore how is this different?

I doubt the warranty would transfer. I had to enter a bunch of information when I registered mine including were I bought it, name and address.

So if the person bought it in September and didn't register it then I should be fine? Otherwise I'll just spring the extra $40 and get it from Amazon.
TIA

Amazon used to not charge tax in CA. Now, us Californians can only hope for the same price from a place like B&H Photo and some others.

thanks for the video, seriously. i was thinkin' about buying two of these, but that ghosting! that's terrible! man, so glad i saw this, because that would irritate me beyond belief.

Even the poster of the video commented on a fix...

I dont need it but just placed an order at Amazon as I see it the qty left going down from 16 to 4 in one hr. must be lot of people buying.

tnx got 2

Edit: Nevermind wrong thread, thought this was the other model

Not a great deal!
 

Probably as good or better than than any other TN monitor !
The devil is in the details! A quick glance down the chart suggest that it may be an IPS monitor. Too good to be true?? You bet! It is only select models (which this isn't) that are IPS panels.

I have been using Dell IPS monitors for a couple of years now and have been spoiled with them, particularly for color accuracy. Color accuracy is important to me for my photo work.

This offer looked to good to be true...

Damn it. My VE247H just came in. Set it up and the damn thing doesn't look anywhere near as good or bright as my other VE247H that I bought six months back. I've been playing around for over an hour. Simply can't get white to look like white on the newest monitor. It has a dull yellow tint to it.

Additionally, the monitor's GUI is different than my original. Same model, same revision, same version. Only difference is the manufactured date.

Anyone experiencing the same problems?

This is my first time posting on SD EVAR, and it's because I wanted to warn people about these monitors.

I had an old BenQ 24". I bought 2 of these to replace the single BenQ to have a dual setup. Within an hour, I was Googling how to fix the ghosting. I couldn't stand it. You have to enter a secret menu and change a setting... EVARY TIME you turn on the monitor. I returned both of them and reverted back to my single BenQ setup (eventually finding another used BenQ).

Some might not notice, but I did. And it drove me up the wall. Someone also mentioned sarcastically that it wouldn't bother them because they are only using Microsoft Word. Well, that's where it's MOST apparent. Take a white background with dark letters and drag it around the screen. The ghosting becomes VERY obvious.

People, beware. All the previous people saying that the ghosting is an issue of concern are right. I am actually very surprised the amazing reviews these monitors got. I'm assuming its the same people who say there is no noticeable input lag on large HD TV's and video games. And mind you, I had two so it wasn't just a fluke.

tl;dr These monitors have a bad ghosting issue. Speaking out of experience, I wouldn't recommend them.

Is the ghosting issue referring to the VE247H, or the VS247H?

I can only speak for the VE247H.

I just bought this monitor and I the box says that it is a VE247 LCD monitor. I thought it was suppose to be LED, did I get ripped off? I'm also reading the tag for the model # and it also says VE247 LCD monitor. It is missing the letter H, should I return it?

FWIW, mine says VS247 LCD MONITOR on the box. On the lower left corner of the box, it says LED Backlight.

...I'm currently regretting my purchase: I'm using this at work with my Dell E6410, and the screen is flickering whenever it has to display certain solid colors. The flickering is less noticeable if I use a black or white background, but I didn't expect to see any flickering at all. (FYI, my laptop only has a VGA connector.) Any tips for my issue are greatly appreciated.

Yes this monitor is a piece of junk. Ill be returning it as soon as I buy something nice.

I've got two VE247H Monitors. One is from this Amazon deal, the other is from Newegg 6-8 months ago. The new one does say LCD Monitor on the box. The older one says LED Monitor. Both say LCD Monitor behind the panels. It might be they had to change how the product is marketed on the box? See second attachment.

My issue is my older one is perfect. White and black levels are superior. The newer one simply does not do white as you can see my the picture I attached. Older monitor on right.

I want to exchange and hope I can get a good set again but Amazon is OOS and then there is the rebate issue if I wait to exchange.

i received mine from amazon ve247, should I open or return if you all having probelms?

ASUS is cheating people, "the LED is only on select models " and "display port is on select models only" what is this select models means? The model number VE247H but it depends whether you get these features or not. This company seems to be a very flase marketing. I regret buying it.

THIS! I bought this thing because it said it had a Display Port. Well guess what? It DOESNT! Making this thing a useless piece of shit. Here comes a return!

who posted this crap and how it made it to FP. I am pissed off.

Look likes it's back and
On Newegg, it's listed at $169.99 after 20 dollar rebate card the total comes out to $149.99

So I did a replacement with Amazon.com and the newest VE247H monitor came in today. It's worse then the one I was going to send back. I don't know what happened but ASUS quality and consistency control must be terrible.

My VE247H that was manufactured November 2011 is perfect: white so bright it's blinding and black so dark it appears the monitor is off.

The September 2012 manufactured one simply didn't compare in terms of white/black levels. It was distracting.

This latest one is manufactured in November 2012 and it's straight up trash. My black is simply dark gray no matter how much I try to tune the settings.

I don't expect monitors to be perfect matches but I want them at least somewhat close. Very disappointed.
