Summary: Never A Problem
Review: I bought an E771 in early 1999, replacing a cheap 14" generic monitor that always had a whine, and ultimately gave out. I've been using this for over a year, without a single complaint. This is a great all-around monitor, especially at current prices. If you want a 17" monitor for any ordinary functions (Office, Internet, gaming, etc.) at a reasonable price like I did, you'll be happy with the E771.

Summary: Great product for its price range
Review: I bought this product 5 months ago. I am very satisfied with the resolution and quality of this monitor. I think it is a best buy for its price range. It is ideal for browsingg and using for projects in college. Might need a better one for sophisticated gaming and graphic based applications.

Summary: Don't buy it if you can
Review: I bought three Viewsonic monitors over the past three years(PS790, GS790-2, and E771), and man, what a huge mistake! They are all dead now while ten-year old Dell monitors are still kicking.
Don't expect it to last long, if you buy one. I will never ever buy any Viewsonic brand in my life time !

Summary: OK
Review: I chose this monitor because of the brand and its price (I got a huge discount). Really cannot compare to my old Sony vivitron 15" (.26 dpi) Monitor but,hey, the price is much better and I get a bigger view. Here are things I do not like: The monitor weight is lighter than the others but it is quite bulky, because of thick edges around the screen, consumed more desk area. The screen is not really flat, so the display area is a little distort (not really square). This has been compensated by adding a lot of buttons for you to adjust (i.e. pincushion, pinbalance). It is however cannot be adjusted to a perfect square. It took me a while to figured out how the attach the base to the monitor, there is no explanation in the manual. My full screen DVD movies is no longer playing "full screen", I think because of the display area, leaving some black edges. Picture quality is ok, better than watching a 14" TV. If you are looking for a nice graphic with same features, better wait, look around and add $100 more for the 19" and 0.26 dot pitch monitor. This monitor is just ok for me, for now.

Summary: LOOKS GOOD TO ME!
Review: I recommend this monitor for anyone that can't decide what to get because of it's well-rounded features. Personally, I am more concerned about image quality than size. When I looked at the slew of monitors that were offered at the store, this one seemed to have the clearest looking images. It's also not too big or too small, so it's a decent "first monitor" as well. I work at an engineering firm, and we have used Viewsonic monitors religiously with little or no problems. The USB hub is extremely useful if you have the right drivers for it. It eliminates some of the wire cluttering in the back of the pc, plus you don't have to reach back there as much anymore. The on-screen menu is easier to use than most TV menu's. This product has been running over a year for now me with no problems. Hope that says something.

Summary: Reliable monitor from a reliable company.
Review: The ViewSonic E771 has been with me through college using two different computer systems. As a Computer Science major, it has been through a lot of use. The picture is crisp, colorful, and bright. At about two years into its life, it started malfunctioning. The monitor was caught in an odd resolution. I called ViewSonic, and without any hassle they had me send it in. They sent me back a new one in no time, even though I had no receipts or original packaging. As a basic 17 inch monitor with no frills or extras, the E771 does a great job. I definitely recommend this monitor along with any ViewSonic monitor. ViewSonic is a very trustworthy company that stands behind its products.

Summary: Great value, but not the best monitor out there
Review: This monitor is great for day to day usage of just internet browsing and checking email and such. It goes for a great price and is easy to set up with a nice picture. I did have a problem with it before and had to return it to Viewsonic, however I was given a replacement monitor at a Viewsonic location in my city for no charge right on the spot without having to pay shipping charges back and forth to California or such. If you're into gaming I'd reccomend spending the extra bucks for a better monitor however this is just great value if you can't afford anything better.

Summary: This review is written using a ViewSonic E771
Review: We bought 20 ea. Of this monitor at one time to replace our aging Compaq monitors. Two of them went black screen within a week. However a local company exchanged them on warranty (no cost) within days. This is going on six months with no further problems. This is in a harsh environment. The front panel control buttons and menu are easy to use. However you may never have occasion to use them. There is a green power on light. The full screen is the viewing area. They are being used on Compaq Deskpros as x terminals to a Unix system. We will buy more of this monitor.
