Universal VESA Mount Adapter Comparison for Sun Vision Display 32” RLCD Computer Monitor
We’ve heard from many customers and potential customers that the Sun Vision Display 32” RLCD Computer Monitor would greatly benefit from having a built-in VESA mount. We agree! It’s one of our greatest regrets with the first version of our monitor and we’re working to design it into our next version (aimed for release in 2023).
In the meantime, we did an experiment: We purchased three different VESA Mount Adapters off Amazon and trialed them out with our new monitor. This article will detail our experience with each one and make a recommendation for what we think is best. Hopefully, this will help many of you adapt our monitor to fit your needs!
IMPORTANT: Each VESA mount adapter brand strongly warns against over tightening the adapter brackets to your monitor. Some users have done this and have literally broken their LCD panel! So, please be gentle when trying any of these VESA mounts.

Product Link: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B083XH56DX/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
What We Liked:
- Includes a VESA bracket
- Supports both 75x75mm and 100x100mm VESA brackets
- All components feel sturdy and durable.
- Fits perfectly with the VIVO desktop stand we purchased.
- Components that touch the monitor are padded, decreasing the chance of scratching or scuffing the monitor.
- Backed with a 3 Year Manufacturer Warranty
- Excellent customer service available by phone, email, and live chat.
- Though our kit was missing a set of screws, we had an excellent experience with VIVO’s customer service department. We were able to get a real person on the phone without any wait time. She was very professional and quickly resolved our issue without any questions. They shipped us an entire new set of all the screws, washers, etc. the same day we placed the call. Since their warehouse is in Illinois, it only took 2 days for the parts to be delivered. It’s so great to find a company that stands behind their product.
What We Didn't Like:
- The instruction manual was a bit confusing. Some users may find it challenging to follow. VIVO does provide an installation video within the Amazon listing to help.
- Our kit was missing the “M” screws, so we had to wait a couple of days for them to ship us new parts.

And the Winner Is...
Each of the Universal VESA Mount Adapters we tried would work sufficiently, but our top recommendation is for the VIVO brand. It seems to be the most well-engineered to fit a wide range of monitors, is backed by a 3-Year Warranty, and we have a good impression of the company after our experience with their customer service department. We feel you can’t go wrong with this option – just take care not to over tighten and you should be golden.
