About this product
The Philips 221V8LB3 is a 22-inch Full HD (1920x1080) monitor with a 100Hz refresh rate and 1ms MPRT, marketed for gaming. It features a slim bezel design, 250 cd/m² brightness, and a 3000:1 contrast ratio. Connectivity includes HDMI 1.4 and VGA. It's also suitable for casual computing, graphic design, and CCTV use. The monitor has a 4ms response time and a 16:9 aspect ratio.
Our take
This Philips 22-inch monitor offers a solid 100Hz refresh rate and 1ms MPRT, making it a decent budget option for casual gaming. The VA panel provides good contrast (3000:1), and the slim bezel looks modern. However, I wish it had a DisplayPort input instead of just HDMI and VGA. With only 250 nits brightness, it's best suited for indoor use. At $20, it's a steal for a basic gaming monitor, but don't expect high-end features. Response time of 4ms is fine for most, but competitive gamers might want faster.
