When first connected it seemed to have some issues (small black squares being displayed), but a couple of reboots solved that issue. Plug and Play! It caught me off guard that it didn't have speakers as did my previous monitor.
I really like this monitor, and it basically a plug and play. It comes on when I wake up my laptop, and goes to "sleep' when my laptop does. The only downside I've found is the display surface is some kind of plastic, so it scratches very easily. Now that I know, I can take proper precautions,
I just got this monitor and have only used it with text and simple videos. I haven't yet viewed my 4K videos which really drove my decision to get this one. I like the large size and ability to make text large enough for these old eyes to see more easily. Display is very clear and sharp.
