ASUS 21.5 inch Ultra Slim Gaming Computer Monitor - Full HD 1920x1080, 1ms Response Time, Built-in Speakers, HDMI Port, VGA Port - VP228HE

Its great. The only thing I complain about is there is one pixel that is perpetually white. Other than that, its a really good screen.

As our yearbook sponsor, I needed a larger monitor to work on page layout. This was a better dimension and larger screen size than my school issue monitor. It allows for plenty of room for the layout design of pages and works well with my needs.

Good for the money

I love this monitor. I had the 144hz from Asus and did not want to replace. I had to try the 244hz. I can tell you, its amazing. Well worth the price for a great product.

I bought a similarly priced/similarl spec asus monitor back in 2013 ($90, 1080p, 1ms response). I accidentally broke the screen, so i needed to replace it. I mistakenly believed, that this monitor would be aproximately the same.... BOY WAS I WRONG!!! where can i start? how about the only good thing: LATENCY: This is literally, the only thing i look for when buying a gaming monitor... thats why i bought the 2013 ASUS, and thats why i bought this one. this thing is fast and responsive, and it feels good playing on it. same deal as the 2013. Manufacturers never actually specify input latency, but you can usually deduce it from the pixel response time and the refresh rate. This monitor has a very respectable 1 ms/75 hz... and as expected, there is no perceptible input lag, even when playing fast action games from the 80s and 90s on FPGA hardware. --- Thats it for the good news... read on for the abysmal everything else: VIEWING ANGLE: so, the viewing angle is bad from left to right... but its SO BAD from top to bottom, that its impossible to position my head properly so that i can see an even picture from top to bottom. Its absolutely pathetic. It would suck trying to play local multiplayer on this junk. Ive never seen a worse viewing angle on any display, ever... maybe an original Gameboy, or something like that is worse. Im not exaggerating at all. By comparison, my 2013 asus had a viewing angle over 170 degrees. BRIGHTNESS: well... i mean... its fairly bright if you are looking right at it, but it just looks washed out. Again, im comparing it to my 2013 model which was EXTREMELY bright. COLOR: the colors are nowhere near accurate, but only an idiot would buy a $100 and expect an accurate color reproduction. to compare it to my 2013 asus, the colors on that panel were overly bright and saturated, but it looked great for gaming... the colors on this panel are washed out and lack contrast. It just looks awful. AUDIO: it has speakers, but they are, again, complete garbage... this is normal (and at least it has speakers)... but there is no way to connect external speakers or headphones if you are using HDMI. What the....? Oh, and get this... there are no volume controls... you have to use the awkward button interface to navigate to a THIRD LEVEL MENU TO ADJUST THE VOLUME!!!! What the...? Ive never seen anything like it in my life. CONNECTIONS: There are 3 connections hdmi, vga + audio in. I havent used the VGA yet, but i will check it out in a day or two. Im not even gonna bother with the audio in. if you are using VGA, plug your audio into literally ANYTHING else, and it will be better than this. By comparison, my 2013 Asus had 2 HDMI ports, one VGA port, and both audio in and audio out (which doubled for headphone output). It even had dedicated volume controls!!! What the...? -- BOTTOM LINE: This company has created a product which obviously neither the designers nor the quality assurance team cared about. If you need a gaming monitor with a fast response time, and you can overlook the TERRIBLE everything else, this might be an ok monitor for you if you can get it for under 100 dollars... (and you cant find anything else at that price point) otherwise... you should buy literally anything else. Ive never seen a worse monitor. Maybe try something from Sceptre, Acer, or LG if you are looking for a cheap gaming monitor.

I had a monitor go out on my pc that has 2 monitors, so I bought 2 of these so they would match. I screwed up because I thought I had HDMI out on my pc, but I didnt. I had DVI and VGA video outputs. I have a video capture card that uses HDMI video input. Its been a while and I forgot what I had! So I had to buy an adapter cable, DVI to HDMI. It works great! I love these new monitors. I have one hooked up to VGA and the other to HDMI (DVI) I cant tell which one is better. I have seen the complaints, but I dont have a single complaint. Plug and play and they are spectacular! Especially for less than a hundred bucks each. And yes, there are definitely the 4 tiny screw holes on the back so you can mount these to an arm. They had rubber plugs in them. Pull the plugs and insert your screws. I had to buy longer screws for these monitors. The plastic on the back seems to be a bit thicker than my last monitors. I bought 4mm X 16mm screws with locks and flats. I made an excellent choice. If you buy one I dont think you will regret it.

Just a bit pricy for my taste, but this was recommended by my partner and I do not regret this purchase. The parameters are just perfect to me.

I love multitasking with this monitor. The settings are easy to adjust. Ive had it for over a year and no problems so far!

I ran both monitors on screen test(solid black), this ASUS monitor(left) is extremely whitewashed and the bottom part of the screen is obviously brighter! Sadly this is an adjustable problem, no matter what setting I tried. *My eyes are tired by looking at it, this monitor will be returned. *By the way, this is a LCD monitor not LED monitor as advertised.

For gaming as a second monitor for discord and the other stuff.
