Glad I gave up using Sky about 6 months ago, was thinking of the Sky Glass, also I have 2 Viewsonic 32" Curved monitors BUT they are made by OMNI whoever they are.

Using a Philips as a temporary measure until a 2nd hand Dell arrives.

Phillips that is not Philips any more, they stopped producing TV and monitors a few years agao.
Dell monitors or at least the higher end ones are very good, I don't know who makes them, but I know someone who had a Dell monitor and the quality was amazing. They updated to a BenQ for some reason.

I have an Acer myself 32inch monitor, it is very good, but then it should be for the price smile I was going to get second one as I have a Hanns-G as a second monitor and while it is ok, it is nothing like the Acer and it is smaller. But the monitor I have got is not produced any more.

I gave up on sky nearly 20 years ago., after 12 months of using it smile

Not a fan on curved monitors, I suppose it depends on what you are using it for,
Omni is amazon from what I gather, produced for them by Foxconn.

I thought it was just a sub-type of Viewsonic monitors- link

(May need to scroll down a bit to see the range)

Can't see what attributes they have to deserve the name crazy

Very strange, you do a search and Omni comes up as Amazon, and a million of other things.

If the monitor is Viewsonic then it will have Vewsonic on the front bezel

Dell make their own monitors. They use panels from a variety of sources and you may get two "identical" monitors with te same part number but they have different panels.

Sorry I am cracking up, Bob said his Viewsonic monitors was made by Omni, I meant it would say Viewsonic on Bob's monitor,

My computers are making lose my mind at the moment.

I have seen the name Omni on a few things, but from my searches it is a Amazon thing. Very strange

The panel is one of the more important things in a monitor, if they are produced by different companies there are bound to be differences

Looking at that link that was posted, this is the one I have: https://www.viewsonic.com/global/products/lcd/VX3218... but deffo has OMNI on the Bezel, if memory serves me right I think I did get them from Amazon, so maybe Viewsonic make them for Amazon under that name.
