Philips 221V8LB 22 inch Class Thin Full HD (1920 x 1080) Monitor, 100Hz Refresh Rate, VESA, HDMI x1, VGA x1, LowBlue Mode, Adaptive Sync, 4 Year Advance Replacement Warranty

Does exactly what I need it to. I needed a smaller second monitor for my MacBook Air. Screen quality is good. It functions as intended and connections are easy to use. Love that it has an on/off button. I haven’t noticed any color issues. I would not recommend this monitor for a designer, but as a copywriter, it gets the job done. I generally need a second screen to research what I’m writing and this has been wonderful for that. It’s a great value for what you get. No complaints other than I wish I had a bigger space to have a bigger screen size, but that’s more of a me problem. LOL I would def buy this brand again. I don’t even remember assembling it which tells me it must have been very easy.

The 100Hz refresh rate makes everything look incredibly smooth, especially during long work sessions or casual gaming. Its Full HD display is crisp, and the thin design saves so much desk space. It’s been reliable every single day without any dead pixels. For the price, the quality is unbeatable. It’s the perfect upgrade for any home office setup. Perfection!

Terrific monitor that was easy to set up and works very well as a second monitor. It looks great and is perfect for day-to-day office activities. No issues with flickering either. I'm extremely please and think it's a great value for the money. I'd definitely buy another one.

I’ve been using this Philips 22" Full HD monitor for a few weeks now and overall I’m impressed. It has a sleek, nearly bezel‑free design and supports VESA mounting—ideal for a multi‑monitor setup or tidy desk layout . What I LOVE: Crisp Full HD (1920×1080) resolution on a 21.5″ VA panel delivers excellent clarity and contrast—deep blacks and vivid whites really stand out . 100 Hz refresh rate & Adaptive‑Sync (FreeSync) make basic gaming and video playback noticeably smoother at a budget price . Eye‑friendly features like LowBlue Mode and flicker‑free tech reduce eye strain during long writing or screen time sessions . Excellent value—Tom’s Hardware praised it for class‑leading contrast and surprisingly accurate color for just ~$70‑80 . What COULD BE BETTER: The stand has no height adjustment, only tilt, so ergonomics might be limited unless you use a monitor arm . No built‑in speakers or USB ports, so you’ll need external audio or hubs for full connectivity. The color gamut is decent but not ideal for color‑critical work—photo or video professionals may want something with wider gamut and calibration support . At 22″, the screen is compact—fine for desktop use, but it may feel small if you’re used to larger displays or want more screen real estate . In Use: I use it for office productivity, streaming, and light gaming via HDMI—no lag, screen tearing or stutter. Color shifts at wide angles are minimal. After a day of work I notice less eye fatigue with LowBlue and EasyRead modes enabled. Final Verdict: This Philips monitor strikes a smart balance of price, image quality, and performance. If you need a secondary display or value smooth visuals and eye care features, it’s a solid pick. Just be prepared to add accessories if you want adjustability or audio built in. 4 out of 5 stars—it’s a great budget pick with a few minor trade‑offs.

My old monitor finally died, so I needed a quick replacement, and I’m really glad I went with this one. It’s a big upgrade from what I had before. The picture is sharp, colors look great, and the 100Hz refresh rate makes everything feel much smoother. Setup was fast, it doesn’t take up much desk space, and it’s been perfect for both work and some light gaming. Very happy with this purchase.

I bought this to function for two purposes: watch tv and a second monitor for my Surface Pro. I plug my Roku stick into it and stream movies and Bob Ross in my studio while I paint. The picture is clear enough to watch movies on. The monitor is plug and play so easy peasy set up. The sound isn't bad but I can connect my Roku stick to a Bluetooth speaker so that's what I use for sound. This monitor was a great value for me. The delivery driver took great care in the delivery and the monitor was intact without any damage out of the box. It is accurately described and works great for my purposes.

Finally got mine and I tried it out today. I have to say, despite not being advertised as a gaming monitor, it features incredibly low latency output and smooth frames suitable for fast-paced gameplay. The picture quality is great - even better as it can be adjusted via the OSD. I only tested this with consoles, but the games look BEAUTIFUL. Like I can't stress enough how good it looks for a 1080p monitor. The colors are vibrant and it gets really bright on max brightness. I only wish it had another HDMI port, but I suppose that's why this monitor was a much more affordable option. For what it does, this is a great monitor all around.

A great monitor, I enabled night shift to 74 so the picture quality looks a bit better. Small and 100hz are awesome. The screen sometimes doesn’t work. It turns black but for a short time.
