Time for new photos. Changed monitors, mouse pad and build a new computer too.

If there too much visible noise, it's because compressing. Did it in hurry and might have used bit too much.

What monitor is that?

Thanks, I really want to pick one of these up.. They look sweet. How's the quality?

For the picture quality, well, it's TN panel, what can I say. It's good for a TN panel, but it still is a TN panel. Bad viewing angles, limited colors without dynamic correction, no good blacks etc. If you are getting the monitor, make sure that you can sit exactly front of the monitor, because there is no adjustable stand to correct the angle.

The backlight is pretty good. It doesn't have noticeable leak, but ofcourse when the screen is black, it isn't showing up as solid black. But that's the issue in almost every monitor.

The build quality is good. The plastic plate at the backside feels kinda solid, like that it isn't going to break or anything. Same goes to the feet/stand that is attached to the back. The monitor's not heavy either, so there isn't even that much weight on the stand anyway.

On the other hand, the black frame at the top front feels bit placticy and hollow. If you put pressure to the frame/edge it will make the placticy sound from hell. The front bottom where the buttons are on other hand isn't as bad. The bottom is thougher and doesn't make any plasticy sound when using the touch buttons. The touch buttons at the front feel good, atleast to me. Respond well, and the buttons look really nice as there is no physical buttons that collect dust.

If I had to say the most annoying thing in the packaging/monitors, I would have to say the plastic protection skin that the monitors were wrapped in to protect it during transportation. It just collected so much static electricity and I got so many shocks when taking it off. I should have used a protection.

Overall, the monitors are good for a TN panel and price.

the mouse is a MX1100

I can't really recommend you a headphone, I only had 2 pairs of headsets. But i've read reviews in which the HD515 is best bang for buck

$878 for a pair? That's expensive as hell.I bought me a set for 80 bucks at frys like last year and if i turn them up half way they rock my house lol

$878 is cheep for a good pair of floor standing speakers lol.

In fact, for a decent pair of floor standing I wouldn't expect to pay less then $1500.

      By News Staff · Posted

      Get $50 of aloSIM Mobile Data Traveler eSim credit for just $24.97 by Steven Parker Today's highlighted deal comes via our Apps + Software section of the Neowin Deals store, where you can save 50% off aloSIM Mobile Data Traveler Lifetime eSim Credit: Pay $24.97 for $50. Stay connected affordably in 120+ countries/regions with your own lifetime eSIM! An eSIM is a digital SIM card. It's basically just mobile data. Once it's activated on your device, it can connect you to data networks in other countries – giving you an internet connection with NO roaming charges. With aloSIM, you can load prepaid eSIM data packages onto your phone, tablet, or computer. Your lifetime eSIM never expires, so it's yours forever and there are never any monthly charges. You'll get $50 in eSIM data credit, which is almost always enough to cover all your data roaming needs for a full year. But if you run out of data, you can always top up your lifetime eSIM and stay connected internationally. Pay $24.97 for a lifetime eSIM with $50 in travel data credit Use your eSIM to join data networks in 120+ countries Install your lifetime eSIM on a compatible device to roam on local data networks Your lifetime eSIM never expires, and can be topped up with more data anytime Many data packages cost as little as $4.50 and last 7 days. Depending on the package you choose, the length of time varies. Good to know Length of access: lifetime For NEW customers only Instant digital redemption Once you add your $50 credit to your aloSim account you have up to 12-months to use it — after that your credit will expire When you pay for a data plan you also get a free phone number (via Hushed) for the same duration of your plan that was purchased - IE 7 day eSim plan gives you a free 7-day phone number Purchased coupon must be redeemed and used within 12 months This deal is not stackable (one offer per aloSIM account) A $4.50 data package will last 7 days The data DOES expire, and you WILL NOT have any leftover data for your next trip unless it takes place within the validity period. While the eSIM never expires, the actual data package is only valid for the length of time stated at purchase (i.e. seven days after activation, 30 days after activation, etc.) So if you buy a seven-day package and only use a tiny bit, that package is still going to expire after seven days. Access options: mobile (check compatibility) Max number of device(s): 1 Updates included Here's the deal: This aloSIM Mobile Data Traveler eSim $50 Credit normally costs ... $50, but it can be yours for just $24.97 for a limited time, a saving of $25 (50% off).
