These monitors are just stellar. Here's why:
The colors are extremely rich and vivid. Working in Photoshop has become a different game now that I can see the range and depth of color that I can. The unfortunate thing is knowing that anything I touch up or create will need to be seen on a monitor of equal quality for the full effect to take place!
Speaking of color, HD movies look amazing. If you want to see just how amazing, go pick up an HD version of Finding Nemo or some other animated adventure. The detail is staggaring. And because you're sitting at the distance you are from the monitors (assuming you're sitting at a desk with them a foot or two in front of you), the 1080p serves its purpose. This means your purchase of 1080p is not based on the marketing gimmick most consumers aren't aware of.
Games. Man, let me tell you... I can't stop playing Crysis on these things. Having two of these monitors is a dream for gamers like myself. There is no lag, no color issues... nothing negative I can say.
Now, having said all of that, a unique facet for me that these monitors come in handy for is when I'm working on my music production. Though managing plug-ins within the software itself has come a long way, there's absolutely no substitute for having plenty of room to see everything right there in front of you. Now, is this benefit something that's unique to this monitor? Of course not. Any wide-screen monitor will give me this benefit, but it's just added value to consider with everything else I listed above. Web/application developers, same thing applies.
Lastly, my computer is in the spare bedroom. If we ever have anyone stay over, this will be a great source of entertainment for them since my next project is hooking my computer up to cable. Likewise, my girlfriend enjoys working out and we just moved, so instead of having to buy an additional TV now for the spare room (aka, the everything else room), she can watch her DVDs on this computer and effectively have 48" of monitor to watch.
So, these monitors are a true all-in-one solution for me. I'm not just a guy who uses his computer for surfing... I can't say these would be worth it AT ALL if you don't plan to truly use them for what they're meant to be used for. And if you plan on getting more than one, make sure you've got the desk real estate, because these puppies are MASSIVE!
As for the, "buttons" rating of 4 stars, the only flaw I see with monitors like this are if you try to operate them in a dark setting. I absolutely love the sensitive touch feature they have instead of actual buttons, but good luck seeing them in the dark! A little bit of backlight action on the buttons would go a LONG way here (and with countless other monitors, for that matter). I don't have any of the complaints that I've seen others do on various other review sites where no HDMI port is concerned. I use the DVI port (which is just fine for the video) and for my audio, I'm running out to a 5.1 setup via a Soundblaster X-Fi card, so no HDMI needed. Likewise, the stands work just fine for me.
That is all. =)
