The black level was good. The white spot is also well calibrated. At 142 nits, the VP231WB won't blind you. That's ideal for extended use with office applications.
Contrast was fairly stable, as is often the case with ViewSonic - nothing to comment on there.
The color-gamut test, on the other hand, was more interesting:
In fact, the ViewSonic actually offered richer colors than the best specialized photography monitors in the greens and reds - though ultimately the differences were minor.
