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

This is probably an LCD or IPS monitor with LED edge backlighting instead of full array LED backlighting. Inspite of the reasonable price, a reasonable reproduction of the original laptop monitor of my computer only occurred if I tilted the monitor manually past the angle allowed by the monitor stand. Even then is was slightly hazy. My laptop produces 4k resolution which is translated down by this monitor. This further reduces the crispness and contrast. If this backlighting were full array, the monitor price would have to be higher and the contrast improved and no fogging. I dont blame ASUS as much as I blame myself for not being educated about the display technologies which are constantly evolving into such backlit modes as OLED, and others. Even though the price is very reasonable the monitor narrow viewing angle and the accompanying fog on the screen made for a very unpleasant viewing experience. I returned the item. Amazons return policy is the best in the world!

The reason this is such a low review in general is because buying this is a coin toss, I just got one today and it had light leaking, if you get lucky then this is a great monitor.

I was surprised at how light it was, it was also easy to screw the stand on. Im buying my parts separately so I havent tried out the monitor yet, will update when I have the time.

It is definitely white washed viewing and playing with the contrast etc didnt work. It will work for my needs for the time being. had to buy a vga cable for it as it didnt come with one.

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.

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.

If you’re looking for a 120hz Monitor for a cheap price. This isn’t it. I thought I found a gold mine of a reliable brand that was selling a quality monitor for this cheap. Once I got and I plugged it in immediately I knew it was 60hz by the smoothness of how the mouse pointer moved. Nvidia Control Panal confirmed that it was 60hz display. Hopefully Amazon fixes misinformation or an ASUS 120hz Monitor.

I bought this as a 2nd monitor. I chose this one cause its the same as my first monitor.

These screens are really good quality. I kind of wish I had gone with a 24” screen vs the 22”, but the quality of these screens is fantastic for the price point.

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