Our take
At $47, the Philips 221V8LB is an incredible deal. The 100Hz refresh and Adaptive-Sync make it feel smooth for gaming and everyday use, and the 4ms response is decent. The 3000:1 contrast ratio (likely VA panel) provides good blacks, better than typical IPS. The VA panel also offers good contrast but viewing angles are narrower. Connectivity includes VGA and HDMI, which is fine. The stand is basic. For the price, this monitor punches above its weight. It's great for budget gaming or as a secondary display. Highly recommended for value.
