Despite its shortcomings, and what may seem to some people a hefty price tag, the ViewSonic TD1655 makes perfect sense, especially if you work from home regularly, or, if you have to travel a lot for your work and need more screen real estate to work with.

ViewSonic TD1655 Review: The design & built
The ViewSonic TD1655 comes with a 15.6-inch IPS LCD monitor, which is surrounded by a quite thin side and top bezels. The bottom bezel is thick, but nothing that could be called off-putting or distracting. The top three inches of the screen are quite thin and measure in at about 0.3 inch, while the bottom portion of the panel, which houses the panel's USB and HDMI ports, measures in at about 0.6 inch.

The body or the chassis of the ViewSonic TD1655 is made out of metal which gives it a very plush and premium feel. You also get an aluminium kickstand which has a 45-degree tilt range. The kickstand is strong and robust enough that it can support some heft. This means that the display can be angled in pretty much whatever way one chooses.
