Pretty good, only had three minor issues
on January 8, 2015

Verified Purchase:Yes
Overall I am very happy with this TV and I will definitely be keeping it. I do have two minor issues to report on, otherwise the TV has been perfect.
First issue, the MHL HDMI port works oddly with some devices, like my Amazon Fire TV Stick. Using the MHL port will cause the stick to reboot every few minutes. I am using external power on the stick as you are supposed to but for some reason it does not like the MHL port and I'm not sure why as it should just function as a normal HDMI port. Stick works fine on the other HDMI port though.
Second issue and bigger one for me, the viewing angles are not good at all from the side. This TV replaced a three year old LG and the LG looked great form all angles and this one washes out badly in color from starting angles greater than say 20 degrees off center. My wife doe not notice it, but I sure do. It is not a huge deal as the TV is for the bedroom and it has to look good from the bed area which is a set position of course. Still, before I could glance over form any position in the room and see it well, now it looks bad unless in front of it. Vertical angles do not matter and it stays looking good.
Third issue - the first TV was shipped to me and it was shattered in the box, you could tell before ever powering it on. I exchanged it in the store as I was unwilling to try shipping again. Box looked undamaged from the outside, inside the lower edge of the TV was visibly pinched near the thickest part of the TV shattering the screen. I'm at a loss as to how that could have happened and left the box undamaged, but it did.

Amazon Fire TV Stick connects to your TV's HDMI port. Just grab and go to enjoy Netflix, Prime Instant Video, Hulu Plus, YouTube.com, music, and much more.

I replaced all three Rokus I have with these.

I am a full on cord cutter, every single bit of television we watch at my house is streaming. I had three Rokus before for all my televisions but the deals on these were so I good I had to try one out. I did, and long story short I ordered two more and my Rokus are now just my backup devices. The Fire TV Stick is much faster, has better menus, better wireless connection and signal, and better image quality than the Rokus they replaced. Image quality seems odd to be improved, but it is and I believe this is due to the faster wireless and faster CPU these have. Before the shows would stream at low quality for up to five minutes before hitting full quality and now I start at full quality, or get there in less than 30 seconds. Plex works great and is a must have for any of my streamers and the Fire TV runs it better than my Rokus did by far.
There is room for improvement, there could be a few more apps. It has all that we personally use but some people might want one or two that are not yet available like HBO. This will get better over time though I'm sure, Roku does have a 5-6 year lead here.
Search currently only searches Amazon content and not everything. I know Amazon would prefer you get it from them via Prime, but if I have Netflix and Hulu and whatever else installed it should search there too.
Other than that we are basically perfectly happy. I wish for a cheaper controller for more games that we could play, but the gaming experience is actually pretty good on the games we have tried. Ski Safari is a fun example on the Fire TV Stick we like playing.
Cool device, I recommend it and prefer it over other streamers.

I have purchased 60+ Asus monitors, a great choice

Verified Purchase:Yes
As I noted above I have over 60 of these now for an office of this specific model, and one other Asus monitor. I have yet to have a single problem with any of the monitors, every computer runs dual screens and these monitors are worlds better than the Dells that they replaced. Good color, good setting ranges for adjustment for individual user preferences and so far perfect reliability. I have not had any issues out of the box either. I have zero complaints, and none from any of my users either (which is amazing in general for any product lol).

Purchased three of these, all have worked great!

Verified Purchase:Yes
I have purchased several of these now and have been completely happy with them and the picture quality for the money. I wanted and needed a 1080p set as these are connected to computers and used as monitors. I was glad to see these still have the good old VGA ports as many of the new TVs do not have those as odd as that seems, I know they are an older port but they are still used by virtually all desktops and it was nice to see Sharp including that port.
Image quality is perfect, and I like the size and thinness of this TV as they are all wall mounted. I have had zero issues with the TV, and I will need more soon and will absolutely purchase more.
I have not personally tested the sound at all as I do not need it for my uses.
