With its 1ms super fast response time and built-in speakers with SRS® Premium Sound™, the VX2739wm delivers truly immersive viewing. The VX2739wm offers the diverse connectivity options consumers demand including HDMI, DVI and VGA video connectivity and a 4-port USB hub. A multipurpose device, the VX2739wm is perfect as a monitor or game console on the desktop or wall with its VESA® compliant design, or as an entertainment display when hooked up to a DVD player or cable/satellite box. Teamed with an ECO mode feature for energy savings of up to 35%, the VX2739wm is not only powerful but can save consumers money by conserving energy.
