4.0 out of 5 stars
Great Picture. Poor sound, November 27, 2009
This review is from: ViewSonic VT2230 22-Inch 1080p LCD HDTV (Electronics)
The picture on this unit is absolutely outstanding which makes the "tin can" sound of the speakers all the more disappointing. Bought this unit for it's compact size and good looks. Hit the mark there. If using a seperate amp/speaker is an option then buy this TV otherwise shop for one with better sound.

Great Value for money if it didn't break, November 30, 2009
This review is from: ViewSonic VT2230 22-Inch 1080p LCD HDTV (Electronics)
I edited this review and gave it a one star because it quit working after two weeks. Tiger direct (The seller) was real good about taking it back and refunding my money.
Bought this for a bedroom TV and it works great. Got it for $199 from Tiger Direct through Amazon and the value for money can not be beat. Full 1080P and computer capable makes this one of the best buys I could find.
Shopped around and some of these at this size are going for $300 to $400 at only 720P in stores and some did not even have a PC hook up either.
The only downfall is if you have it sitting high up you can not tilt the screen downward. I put a spacer under the back of the stand to tilt it forward for better viewing. It does tilt upward.
The on screen display is hard to see from a distance too but I can live with the faults for the price I picked this up at. Have not plugged a computer into it but Viewsonic has been making computer monitors for a long time and this would probably be a better monitor than TV although the TV works just fine. I had to refer to the manual to figure out how to scan for my digital cable TV signals but once I pressed the right buttons it scanned all of them with the QAM tuner with no problems.

Dont Listen to the poor reviews., September 11, 2011
This review is from: ViewSonic VT2230 22-Inch 1080p LCD HDTV (Electronics)
My girlfriend needed a bedroom TV that sits about 6 feet away from her on her dresser. She isn't a big electronics junky, but i am.
We purchased this TV from a local electronics retailer today and are blown away by the quality of the picture. I am comparing this to the 1200 dollar 52" plasma we have that we bought last year and the 42" LG LCD that we purchased a few years ago.
The picture is crystal clear when connected via HDMI. Colors are bright and natural.
Sound: Everyone has complained about it, but for someone who is EXTREEEEEEMLY picky about electronics, the sound is perfectly fine for the bedroom. It's clear and produces plenty of bass for such a small tv.
If you are expecting to put this in a large family room to watch a big football game with 5 or 6 people, it may not be loud enough for you, but for a bedroom TV it is perfect.
I usually dont review items, but i feel like the reviews for this TV are so flawed that someone needed to step-up.
My background: Computer Engineer: Used to work at Circuit City. Proud owner for Many electronics and very knowledgeable.
