Acer 21.5 Inch Full HD (1920 x 1080) IPS Ultra-Thin Zero Frame Computer Monitor (HDMI & VGA Port), SB220Q bi

Website says its LED in the comparison chart, box says LED on outside. Users manual says LCD. So what is it??? Another caution; using this in a docking station with multiple displays cause my display #2 to go 6 off the screen and the graphics were not able to be set to the 16:9 scale anymore.

My son had the gaming pc with the tower and all plus a few extra accessories which I had purchased at a gaming electronic store.When I buy that type of stuff I like to buy the best or close to it so you definitely get your money’s worth.So this time we went to Best Buy because his pc started acting up clinching not saving and running very slow when he tried playing his games.So after talking to a geek squad employee he cleaned the tower and we ordered his monitor off of the Amazon app and it works GREAT. WE R VERY HAPPY CUSTOMERS.The monitor is def a great size for gaming.

This was a great buy I only return due to my company offer to purchase one for me

Honestly for the price (I think I paid 70 bucks) you cant really beat it. My main issue is that its not adjustable and not able to be rotated like my other monitor but otherwise really solid quality.

Use it only for my PS4, great picture and easy to set up.

First things first: please treat this review as a 3.5 star, which is what I would rate it if Amazon allowed me to. My main issue with this screen is that it has to be the sorriest excuse of an IPS/AHVA/PLS panel Ive ever seen. The viewing angles are actually so bad for left/right that there is only a very small position where I can leave my head so that there is no discolouration on the sides, worse than any TN panel Ive ever seen. Also, it looks like there is a lot of excess light directly off center to your heads position, as if there is backlight bleed that shifts as you move your head left and right while staring at the screen. Since this was purchased to be my second monitor, it isnt that big of a problem to ME specifically... but it also means its impossible to keep my head in the perfect position, due to it being off-center to me. I actually had to tilt the screen somewhat sideways (instead of being flush next to my main monitor) so that the sides would mostly look normal in terms of colour. Now I WILL admit that it is possible this is a defect with my actual screen, possibly some problem with backlight bleed or something, but since this is my only sample size, I must rate it accordingly. If Acer has a problem with my statements, they should step up their quality control game and not let a monitor like this pass inspection for sale. Now, the good! For a breakdown, Ive rated this a 4/5 for gaming, 3/5 for picture quality, and 5/5 for brightness, heres my take on each: - The input lag is quite low; there is no system lag while working on it. Being above 60Hz also gives it a solid edge for gamers. Gamers generally care less about viewing angle issues like what I described, so as a gaming screen this should not be too bad. Unfortunately I still cannot ignore the viewing angle problem due to how bad it is, and I will never rate any screen below 120Hz as 5 stars for gaming, so it settles at 4. - Picture quality is actually quite good. The contrast is great and the colours very crisp - if the viewing angles and backlight shenanigans were a non-issue i would probably even rate this 5 stars (largely considering the price), but alas, 3 stars. - For brightness, its certainly bright enough for my needs, though Ive not used it in direct sunlight. The anti-glare works well and it keeps its picture quality and visibility perfectly fine even with a flashlight shone at it. I cannot ask for more, so full marks here. All in all, for $90 I cannot truly complain. It does its job of being a screen for discord, watching videos/anime, and handling my stream alerts/notifications. Its light and easy to set up, the on/standby light is not bright yet still well visible, so not distracting in a dark room. Unfortunately viewing angle issue and discolouration it produces ALONE is enough for me to say consider other options, but the rest of the screen pulls it up a bit. If this is going to be your main monitor, and you are not someone who does little but game on your computer? Stay far away. If you need a cheap, decent screen for gaming or this is going to be a low-importance second monitor? Id say its up for consideration, if only because its 75Hz at this price point.

Bought this in Jan 2021 during WFH COVID. Still works great. I originally bought this for my PC, but works great for extending my Macbook too.

Needed another screen for work and it works perfectly, without breaking the bank.

Works very well for a monitor of this price range, only nitpick I have about it is that the picture is slightly dulled in color.

Great monitors. Love them. Great picture quality
