AOC 22V2H 22" Full HD 1920x1080 Ultra-Slim Monitor, Frameless IPS, 5ms, 75Hz, FreeSync, FlickerFree, HDMI/VGA

Easy set up once I figured out how to remove the back to get take the stand completely off. Just a tip, use a credit card to pop off the plastic, works like a charm. One of the screws for the VESA bracket wasnt threaded properly, I emailed customer support, and within 5hrs I had a response, and the screws were mailed to me within 2 business days. Could not be happier with their customer service.

Got this for a pretty good deal. Read a lot of reviews and the full specs. Best price for the screen size, IPS and etc. Pretty easy to put together. Takes like two minutes unless your a cable management OCD type. If you want it lower on a desk, you can skip putting it into the slotted base. Great display. Games look good on it. Videos even better. I dont run any 1080p or 4K type stuff. Clean lines. Looks good on the desk next to my two Macs and with the rest of my setup. Bezel lines are there BUT I like the way they blend in. The 21.5" screen is just right. Enough screen space to side by side my IDE and browser. The one thing I love that surprised me was the light on it. When its in standby, I cant tell the lights on at night. Ill be keeping an eye out for the price on this again to get a second one or perhaps a model that has HDMI. There are a few nitpicks I do have. Theres no HDMI but I have adapters and use real speakers so no huge loss. The bottom front bezel is... well a little odd. Not sure how to explain it. I wish it were about a half inch higher. I rigged up something using part of a wooden shelf There is a VESA kit available for it. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01A3XDIQQ/ref=ox_sc_mini_detail?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid= After finding it, theres a good chance Ill be ordering another monitor soon and two of the kits to mount them.

I literally shopped for about 6 months for a monitor before buying this and I couldnt be happier. While not a Samsung, Asus or HP which weve all heard of, this thing beat them all and for about half the cost. My requirements were a 27" monitor with virtually no bezel and it had to be visually appealing as I wanted to hang it in our family room for a CCTV system and $200 was all I was looking to pay. This was it. Its thin, has VESA mounts, super thin bezel, very crisp, clear picture and best of all its the price of most 23 inch screens.

Pluses : 75hz (which is moderately noticeable even on desktop) Freesync (good Feature for tearless gaming) IPS (overall ips is best technology for monitors coz on VA Matrix - Text is horrible and on TN Matrix colors/viewing angles are horrific) Small Frame B+ clarity for 22" (21.5) inch version, not very far away from 27" 2K monitor but 2K 27" inch monitor is still slightly sharper which is notable with naked eye. Great for its price (100$-110$ for 22" and 130-140$ for 24" inch version) Averages : there is no height/swiwel adjustment but for 100$-150$ very few monitors have height/swiwel adjustments. No internal Speakers. Menu/controls are nothing special. clarity on 24" version is average, little worse then on 22" version and much worse then 27" 2K monitor but overall clarity/sharpness is acceptable and wont be dealbreaker for average person Minuses : plastic and stand both looks moderately cheap Sharpness on 27" inch version is Bad, i mean really bad you will notice it in everything except Movies, watching Movies will be ok but other then movies, Text on internet and even objects in Games will be blurry which will be dealbreaker for Alot of people, so if you want to buy 27" inch monitor do not Buy any of 27+ Full HD [1920X1080] monitors because IPS matrix 75Hz and other pros will Vanish if everything will be blurry. considering all above mentioned factors my overall Scores : 22" 9.0 (for 100$-110$) 24" 8.0 (for 130$-140$) 27" 3.5 (for 170$-190$)

Beautiful monitor! To be honest i might be behind the loop as i havent bought a PC monitor since 2006 (which was a top of the line model back then). It was really starting to show its age and the fact that it was 720p. I wanted something that looked a little more crisp and this monitor has certainly filled that purpose. Only had it so far for 4-5 hours but I feel very satisfied with the purchase! However the monitor feels choppy in games that my old monitor never did. This monitor has a refresh rate of 60Hz (60 frames per second) while my old monitor was 70Hz (70 frames per second). Thats only about 13% slower and I dont believe that is the problem. It just feels choppy/laggy in games. Thought it might just be input lag but its 5ms which while not great definitely isnt bad unless you play twitch reflex games at very high frames per second. Ive raised my FPS cap to 100 and it seems a little smother but Im thinking it might just be the included VGA cord and will purchase a DVI-D. Also this frame is not borderless in the sense of virtually no bezel and all screen. There is most certainly a bezel/border, its just tucked underneath the the matted layer covering the screen. Im not bashing the monitor tho for what I paid Im very pleased just I wanted to list the slight cons. Paid $99.99 for this threw Amazon prime and Im very pleased and would gladly order it again. 1 star has been removed for them not including a DVI-D cord (they are very cheap) and only including a very outdated VGA cord. That and the choppy/laggy i get in game with the fact their is a 1/2 inch bezel/border hidden under the screen. All in all very pleased and was expecting worse. --Slight Update-- I know this monitor says its 60Hzs but Im getting a noticeable amount of screen tearing between 50fps-59fps. This shouldnt be the case and above 60 its nearly a constant screen tear at the bottom of the screen. My old monitor was 70Hzs and even when I let my frames per second sit between 90-120 I didnt encounter nearly as often as I encounter it on this monitor above 50 fps. --1 Month Later-- Ive had this monitor for a month now, beyond the stuff listed above I have really started to notice that the picture quality is not that good. Text looks nice and crisp but beyond that pretty much everything looks smudgy. Instead of nice crisp boarders while gaming and watching videos it seems to be washed out (not in the sense of color but the pictures detail) stuff just seems to be almost fused. Im disappointed in this monitor as a gaming monitor (which in all actuality its not intended to be used as) but ... I have a i7 6700k and a AMD Fury (2016 Sapphire Edition) and this monitor seems to be the bottle neck for me. While its better then my old monitor for sure it really takes away from the image quality. For a productivity monitor this thing gets a A+ for gaming and videos its a C. Ill keep the monitor as a second display but I will most certainly be replacing it for a better gaming monitor. The constant screen tearing below 60fps and the image quality leaves me feeling disappointed. If this is all you can afford then use it but if you have more to spend and just trying to save a buck look else where because more then likely like me you will be disappointed. --2-ish years later-- Monitor has held up over the period of time Ive owned it, after awhile I stopped noticing the screen tearing for the most part (still there) but Ive gotten better at tuning it out. Something about it would just draw my attention which made it very easy to notice. Since than I have purchased a 144hz monitor and absolutely love it and is far superior to this monitor but like I said previously it makes a decent second monitor for multi-tasking in games and what not so Im not going to talk down on it at this point. The monitor was not nor never intended to be used as a high end gaming display so I cant fault it for not being perfect. Had no issues at all with it in the time Ive owned it and still works just as well as the day I purchased it.

Havent yet used this monitor, however wanted to make a note for anyone looking at getting this monitor. I bought this to replace my second monitor and am mounting both 27" monitors on a dual monitor stand (the AmazonBasics Premium one is really nice <3) There are a lot of reviews of this item that are not this exact model pictured. The monitor I received is the exact one pictured and it appears to have a fixed stand - it is a fixed stand, however the fixed stand is easily removable. The plastic aluminum colored strip on the back pops off with little persuasion. There are 4 screws securing the mounting bracket to the back of the monitor, remove those puppies and the stand/arm comes off. Replace the plastic strip on the back if you want to give the wall something more aesthetically pleasing to look at. Otherwise be a rebel and leave it off. The choice is yours.

These monitors have a decently colorful picture and price to feature set. I was happy to see a monitor with almost no bezels, 75hz with freesync and non TN panel in this price range. Its a good monitor for the price, HOWEVER, I find it kind of crazy that the monitor input for HDMI is actually IN the built in stand, there will be no replacing the stand with a clutter free monitor arm. To me, the whole point of a small slim Bezel monitor is for the purpose of having multiple setup together for work or Game use, the choice to make the monitor thin by putting some of the monitor internals built into the stand is crazy talk. It was a poor choice AOC, simply put. I am currently deciding if I should return both of them or try and make this work.

This is my initial review after just opening it and turning it on. Upon pulling out the stand from the box, it was full of permanent scratches and marks. Looks like I bought an old, used monitor. After connecting the base and setting it up at the desk, I couldnt help but notice something felt very off and discomforting. Turns out the right side of the monitor is constructed so its almost a quarter inch lower than the left side. And of course, you cant tilt the monitor sideways so Im stuck with it. The only saving grace here is it is mountable, so looks like Ill have to purchase a mount. I wasnt in love with the display, either. Colors felt dull and I thought my 6 year old, off-brand, 720p cheap TV showed better colors when gaming. Figured I needed to adjust some settings like you normally do, but I havent been able to figure out how to adjust any settings. Thats fine, I can just check the manual to see how or if its possible. Oh wait, I didnt receive one of those. All in all, my excitement for my first, full-hd, IPS monitor quickly fell to disappointment.

This monitor was fine... for a while. Its been 3 months, with light use, and now it doesnt work at all. First the screen started to flicker - I figured it was because of the adaptor I had to use to connect it to my Macbook Pro (it only has USB-c ports). But now it wont get any signal, I just have a black screen. I tried connecting it to an old PC I have w/ a VGA connection and... still no signal. Tried a different VGA cable - NO SIGNAL. So its definitely the monitor. I definitely dont recommend this. I consider it a $100 mistake!

I purchased two of these monitors less than a month ago and one of them has already crapped out.
