Philips 221V8 22 " black
 | Outdated Product One of the most affordable and energy efficient 22" FullHD monitors in 2020. The actual screen size is 54.6 cm (21.5"). The manufacturer is positioning itself as a product of the basic price category from the Philips V-Line family of low-cost devices aimed at home and office use. It is distinguished by exceptionally high energy efficiency (on average it consumes about 13 W of electricity, which is comparable to the power of household LED lamps). The detail of the semi-glossy screen (25% anti-glare matte finish) is quite comfortable at 102 ppi (40 px/cm). As a basis for the design of the Philips 221V8 monitor, a full-fledged eight-bit VA matrix with a resolution of 1920x1080 (16:9 aspect ratio) and W-LED backlight is used. Flicker-Free technology eliminates visually disturbing PWM flicker....This hardware platform provides a sufficient level of brightness (up to 200 cd / m2), improved static contrast ratio of 4000: 1 and excellent comfortable horizontal / vertical viewing angles (up to 178 °). Philips SmartContrast technology automatically analyzes displayed content and adjusts colours and backlight intensity to further enhance contrast. Thanks to the RTC system, which provides response time compensation, the minimum pixel switching time is 4 ms GtG, which is quite enough for clear motion in computer games and videos.

Model overview based on user reviews
The Philips 221V8 22" monitor is highly regarded for its excellent color rendering and narrow bezels, making it an appealing choice for both home and office use. Users appreciate the 8-bit matrix, which provides decent color depth, and the flicker-free technology that ensures comfortable viewing during long sessions. The monitor offers a resolution of 1920x1080, which is suitable for its size, and features wide viewing angles. Although it includes both HDMI and VGA connections, the latter is less commonly used. Overall, the monitor is praised for its good assembly and design, with no significant drawbacks reported by users.
Pros
The matrix here is 8-bit. It's decent, which was an important plus for me, as I was specifically looking for a monitor like this. It wasn't easy to find for such a price. The resolution is 1080p, nothing special, but it's suitable for a screen like this. It's comfortable for watching videos and working. It's connected via HDMI, and there's also VGA, but who needs that?). It has flicker-free technology. Everything is okay. Colors, assembly, and design are not bad because the bezels are narrow. Nothing disappointed me  Viktor Alenovich: use Philips 221V8 few months |
I like it - the monitor is top-notch from all sides, the matrix is already factory-tuned as it should be, the color reproduction is good, there is no flicker, the viewing angles are wide, the bezels are narrow, it looks cool, and the eyes don't get tired much after long sessions with movies, text, and more. Color rendering. Assembly No problems shurik: use Philips 221V8 few months |
