Is this monitor good for reading?

Yes, it is an awesome monitor. I had to turn the brightness down, but this is true with any monitor really. I get eye strain, but this is a personal thing. However, it is an awesome monitor well worth the price. Asus makes great hardware.

Absolutely fantastic for reading. I use it heavily for Microsoft outlook, word , excel, and PowerPoint. It's so nice to not see jagged ugly letters. I don't think I talk about that aspect of the monitor but I highly recommend it for readers of text. I put up a YouTube review if it helps just search out Asus mx239 eval. Hope that helps growth monitor I'm seriously considering getting a second one.

Yes, this monitor is perfect for reading. Plus movies, viewing pictures, and playing games. This monitor is awesome.

Hi. I don't know what kind of reading your referencing. I also don't know what your looking for. For example. Are you vision impaired? Do you need help? As far as normal day activities and use, it works perfectly for reading. You can make text bigger and smaller if needed. But it is fantastic. The settings are easy to use and the quality is perfect.

This is a TN panel, so this is absolutely NOT going to be a good monitor for accurate color reproduction. It will be awesome for writing code though...

Please read the EXACT description for this monitor it answers your question.

Yes. It's ideal for any kind of small print. My Mom is 90% blind due to glaucoma and still manages to do a lot of reading by connecting this device to the TV or by plain scanning and reading directly from it. I strongly recommend it also because it is quite durable and can take a few drops etc which are bound to happen when older people handle objects. Hope this has been useful.

I think it is, but bear in mind that the quality of this thing is very low, as per my review. I recommend a higher resolution display.

I believe that one of the reasons this monitor is lower in price is that it badly needs calibration upon arrival. I spent about an hour and a half calibrating it to match what you are asking. So, the answer is yes, but not without some effort in calibration. Some of the calibration I was able to do with the monitor itself, but the rest I had to do with my video card to compensate. After being calibrated, however, it has performed perfectly.

It is possible, yes, but don't expect much from it if this is why you would buy it. I use it simply to browse, and even that is a little more tricky than I'd appreciate sometimes. All in all it is a $280 touch screen monitor, and you get what you pay for, which is relatively cheap in comparison to better options.

Yes, I think it's comfortable for reading. Maybe it would depend a little on a person's height though. I think this stand is great!

Yes, I'd say so. Mine is quite readable out to 45 degrees for left, right and bottom viewing. The top viewing angle might be a bit less as the bezel blocks the view of the display a tiny bit when viewed from the top.

I use it for walking at night not reading, but it has three light brightness settings. I would think it would be fine for reading.

The monitor only has two positions, open and closed. When open, it is only at that same angle that you see pictured. It seems like a good angle for general use, and all of the reviews say the viewing angles of the screen are very good, although I haven't seen it for myself. I am also wondering whether the limitation has been problematic for anyone who has used the device for a while.

yes it is, but I do not use it that way. I am extremely satisfied with this monitor in every way.

I apologize I am not computer savvy. It does what I want as a monitor for my computer. The screen is large enough for my space and very clear. So, once again I do apologize for not knowing any more about the monitor. Sincerely Marcia W.

The issue will be power, it uses two powered USB ports for power supply. The port on the monitor is a micro USB you could probably use alternate means of power. I don't have the power specs on hand to advise what would be best for alternative power.

I believe so, but the quality will be poor. Given the high quality of the monitor, it would make sense to spring for a DVI or HDMI video card if your computer can handle it.

This computer has a HDMI and VGA output. As long as your monitor has one of these inputs you will be fine.

It's a pretty good monitor and I have been using this for quite a while now without issues. I don't see a reason of why you wouldn't be able to use this for PC Gaming. The only issue would be that the monitor is glossy and so the glass is reflective. Other than that I think it pretty good.
