Hannspree Hanns.G HT225HPB 21.5" 1920 x 1080pixels Multi-touch Black touch screen monitor

Chamsys users - this review is aimed at you! I purchased this touchscreen to use with my Chamsys MQ70 Compact lighting console. The console has an inbuilt touchscreen, but for more complex shows and busking, it usually does not have enough space. This monitor has been an excellent addition to the rig! It would also be great for someone using the MagicQ software on a computer-based setup. The Good: Similar in size to the MQ70- fits well into my Pelican case, right along with the console. Great touch response! Excellent for execute windows, or working with large pixel mapping situations. Great multi-touch. The manufacturer claims 10-point touch, but I generally need 3 or 4 max simultaneous. Slim, flat design. Easy to pack down for transport. Simple, effective stand for desktop use. It can easily match the slant of the console itself, for a relatively seamless, wide control surface when placed next to the console. Solid and well designed casing. Includes both USB A-to-B and HDMI cables, so there are no more purchases to be made for connectivity. Great viewing angles. This is especially helpful when setting the screen beside the console instead of above it. The Bad: 1. As other reviewers have mentioned, the buttons to control the monitor itself are touch-sensitive areas on the frame/bezel of the screen. This can be a liability when working in a dark environment! I really wish those same controls had been placed on the rear of the screen instead, or had been implemented with physical buttons. [However, I did not feel this liability was enough to take off a full star. For my purposes, I am able to just modify my workflow and hand position to avoid the buttons.] 2. The multi-touch does not work great when running MULTIPLE on-screen faders. It works perfectly with one fader at a time, but has issues with dragging down two separate faders. A separate fader wing is still the way to go, if that is a requirement of your setup. 3. The jacks for the power/usb/hdmi connections are in an awkward location for portable usage. If you plan to set it up in one place and leave it, there is no issue. Notes: I plan to do some experimenting to see what types of materials will block the touch sensitive buttons on the bezel. My hope is that I can use a strip of wood across the entire width of the screen to use as a thumb rest. The touch feature works by touching the bottom edge of the bezel as well, so i would still be able to access the buttons if I covered the front. For placing the monitor above the console as shown in my photo, there is a tablet/computer stand available on Amazon that does a very good job holding it. Search for: "DUCHY Adjustable Laptop Stand, FYSMY Ergonomic Portable Computer Stand" In fact, this a great stand for use with the MQ70. I often use it to hold my MacBook Pro when I'm using the Chamsys Visualizer. The Bottom Line: If I could, I would rate as 4.5 stars. The overall performance has been wonderful, and I would definitely recommend to other MQ70 & MQ50 users. Also! The seller (Bleepbox) was excellent in prompt fulfillment! Ordered Sunday, shipped from the UK, arrived at my US address on Thursday.

Je m'en sers pour piloter une console (table de mixage) numérique. Fonctionne très bien doublé avec l'usb. mécanisme d'inclinaison très pratique .Le seul "défaut" que je lui trouve c'est qu'il est trop grand. ( un 17ou 19' aurait amplement suffit...) , pas de quoi se plaindre...Surtout si on a la vue qui baisse. Le son intégré n'est pas terrible ..évidemment , si je compare avec celui pour lequel il est utilisé.....Bon produit que je ne regrette pas d'avoir acheté. Reste à savoir si il sera fiable dans la durée...A suivre.

L'ho sistemato su di un tavolinetto ripiegabile di quelli per servono per fare la colazione a letto e praticamente lo sto utilizzando seduto sul divano, con le gambe a cavalcioni, completamente rilassato e a mio agio. Che dire! Se non fosse per i fili che sono di intralcio e impediscono di trasportarlo facilmente da un luogo all'altro, come se fosse un notebook, per il resto è comodissimo e, al contrario di quanto si potrebbe pensare, non pesa molto, tanto che lo sto utilizzando come un "tablet gigante". Semplicemente eccezionale, aspettavo da tempo un prodotto come questo! Offre un'esperienza di lavoro unica, bellissima. E' inoltre molto reattivo, la tastiera virtuale è sufficientemente ampia da consentire una scrittura veloce, persino più veloce delle mini-tastiere per tablet, ed è intuitivo, preciso. Ad esempio, si riesce a cliccare anche sui pulsanti più piccoli o ad effettuare facili selezioni dai menu. Lo si può utilizzare sia per il divertimento, ad es. per guardare film in alta definizione, sia per lavorare con software di tipo professionale (Photoshop, Microsoft Office, e tanti altri). Unico problema: sinora non ho trovato un pennino adatto a disegnare. Per il resto, uno dei miei migliori acquisti da 10 anni a questa parte.

09.07.26: Auch nach 5 Jahren funktioniert der Monitor einwandfrei. Klasse touch Funktion.

The monitor exceeded my expectations, it's sharp, works perfectily with windows 10 tablet modus, the touch screen is very responsive. I have it in use for one week now and I didn't feel the need to connect a real keyboard. I red someone compleined about the glare but I didn't experienced such discomfort, even in plain sun. I use the screen for computer graphic and it responds to my needs completely.

- I've only had this display for about 4 day's now, but even in that time, I can say the screen quality is very good. - Seem's to work very well with Windows 10. No obvious conflicts noted. - Even tried using it with some Steam games which to my amazement, almost all worked very well also. - I'd recommend scaling Windows 10 up to 125% in the settings screen (just type "make everything bigger" in the windows search bar) - it seems to be much easier and clearer to click on things once you do this. - Is mountable to a monitor arm (which I have done), and much easier to control as your can have the screen in more positions). I've not tried the built in stand the screen comes with, but it feels very sturdy. - Overall build quality seems very good also. - In terms of fingerprint marks on the screen, I really can't see anything at all when the screen is turned on and in use, but it is quite noticeable when the screen is turned off (which does not affect or bother me at all). - Another nice feature, is the built in screen controls such as the power button and settings menus are also a touch based panel built into the screen (not required, but nice feature and in-keeping with the overall display). - The touch element is very responsive and accurate. I've owned a previous touch screen monitor which was infrared based and was no where near as good as this Hanns. G model. - There is very little bezel on the monitor, so the screen real-estate is fantastic and not hindered by an awful bezel which steals pixels, unlike most monitors I've owned previously. - Netflix/gaming quality is very good also. Colours nice and bright in my opinion. (I don't use any photo/video editing so unable to comment if it would be suitable for any professional/enthusiasts if used for this purpose). - Works well with apps such as "Hue" for smart lighting controls (Philips Hue Smart Lighting). - Even considering purchasing another one in the future. Edit : I could not get the touch to work with a Macbook (early 2015) running High Sierra when testing, but it did function as a basic display. (but it's always been difficult to get a touch enabled screen with most Mac OS products, not something Hanns.G is responsible for in my opinion).
