This review is from: PX2230MW Touchscreen LCD Monitor - 22" - Optical - 1920 x 1080 - 16:9 - 0.248mm - Black (Personal Computers)

We got a batch of these monitors at work. We use touchscreens all the time for interactive kiosks. These monitors' touch capabilities are some of the best we've ever seen. Very sensitive. Works out of the box with Windows 7, without needing any drivers or software installed. We haven't done any calibration or anything and haven't noticed any trouble with accuracy with the default settings.

We used this side-by-side with an HP all-in-one touchscreen PC, and the usage was almost night-and-day. This one is quick, reactive, and barely requires any touch at all.

The only issue I've encountered is that if you click-and-hold, the mouse pointer doesn't move to the spot you're holding on until you release it. This is fine for all Windows use, but was causing some issues with our interactive software that relies on holds for functionality. HOWEVER, if you start to drag, it instantly works properly. So I think this issue is a special case to our specific software.

As for the screen quality, this one is nice and bright, accurate colors, deep blacks. There's a bit of dimming when looking at it from a side angle, but nothing atypical for an LCD panel.

The bezel, frame, and mount work great in our applications. Because it uses feet at the bottom of the front bezel and with an a-frame style back bracket, it's very stable at every angle, including tilted upwards for use while standing. This makes it a great choice for kiosks, work tables, kitchens, etc. Although I can't speak to water or dustproofing on this. :)

All in all, a great, large screen with very nice touch, at a very reasonable price.

Love it. Wife was pissed I spent money on a specialized touch-screen monitor for the kitchen, yet she uses it EVERY DAY and definitely likes having a computer in the kitchen. I'd buy this again in a heart beat. Touch screen accuracy is a bit off most of the time (even after multiple attempts at calibration & cleaning) but it's close enough and works really well despite this. My daughter LOVES microsoft paint with this monitor. :o)

It has performed very nicely with Windows 7 just as promised and we really like how fun it is to use with the touchscreen functions.
