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

التعليق

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.

I have made an unboxing video if you wish to watch it: youtu.be/JADWTeYISZQ So far Ive bought three of these things and they look and work great. The monitor itself is 22", but not that the screen is actually only 21.5". Assembly is simple, take out the base, screw the stand into the back with the thumb screw, and then slide the monitor into the base. The monitor has VGA and DVI as input choices, though I wish to see HDMI or Displayport, its not enough for me to knock off a star. Also no there is no vesa mounting option built into the monitor. There are adapters you can buy that will slide onto the screen and enable it to be mounted, but it still should be noted. Edit: I recently bought a triple monitor stand and have mounted these monitors to the stand. While VESA adapters do exist, they are expensive, so I went with the DIY approach. Total cost was less than $10 total. I got a 10 foot roll of Galvanized Strapping (used to hang pipes from the ceiling), washers, nuts that would fit onto the included vesa screws, and some heavy duty duck tape. Cut pieces of the stripping to match the holes in the vesa mount (I used the smaller 75mm holes). Wrap them in duct tape to prevent scratching the monitor. Put the screw through the holes in the vesa mount and place 2 strips of the strapping on each mount, one across the top pair of holes and one across the bottom. Put a washer over the screw and loosely put a nut on each screw. You should be able to slide the monitor stand into the brackets you just made. Use a pair of pliers and screwdriver to tighten the screws in place. Repeat for each monitor, and make sure that they are tight. I was able to align these vertically and horizontally without them sliding around.

OVERALL: This is absurdly good for $99. When building my desktop I went over budget, so I decided to buy two of the cheapest but still tolerable 1080p monitors I could find and swap them out later. But after a couple months of use, Im very pleasantly surprised and in absolutely no rush to replace these. I now plan on keeping them until 4k content is significantly more widespread, which will probably be years. Note - I took the pictures of the displays with a cruddy phone camera that had no custom settings and has difficulty focusing. Please dont judge the display quality by those, at least as far as color and image clarity! Theyre mostly intended to show what the borders look like and give a rough idea. BAD: 1. Its kind of wobbly. I dont think its terrible, but I do normally keep one against the wall of my desk hutch and the other in direct contact with the first, so this probably helps mitigate that. I really only notice it if something bumps into the desk with a decent amount of momentum. 2. Somewhat related - its hard to keep the monitors positioned precisely. You can see in my pictures that they are slightly misaligned in relation to each other, and this is not for lack of trying. Ive put a decent amount of effort into lining them up properly, but the angle is a bit difficult to control. 3. Doesnt ship with a DVI cable; despite being 1080p with 5ms refresh and capable of 60fps, it comes with a VGA cable for some reason. If you want to send email and check Facebook, this is fine, but at a certain point VGA starts to fall off. Its noticeable for me, but Im running games in 1080p at a high framerate. This isnt a huge deal since you can get two DVI cables for about $20, but I was a bit disappointed and was stuck with using VGA for a week until my new cables came, plus now I have VGA cables lying around that I dont know what to do with. Again, though, not a huge deal, and if Id read a bit more carefully I would have seen that there was no DVI cable before I bought these and wouldnt have had to wait. NEUTRAL: 1. It is frameless, but not borderless. By frameless I mean that the black border around the display does not protrude and is sort of sealed under the screen so the surface is totally flat and smooth. It definitely appears to be borderless when it is off, as you can see in one of my included pictures, but when you turn it on there is absolutely a black border. However, that is very clearly shown in the advertised product picture, so its not really misleading. And it is still a very thin border that is much less noticeable than the frame on the significant majority of monitors, particularly when displaying dark images (pictures of dark and light images included in review). 2. There are no HDMI ports or speakers. It supports VGA and DVI. I prefer DVI to HDMI and wanted to be able to choose my own speakers anyway, but this may be a concern for some. 3. It is not VESA compatible by default, but there are adapters you can buy which are not very expensive. Most users dont have much desire to take advantage of VESA anyway and just keep the default stands even with compatible monitors, but I was considering keeping one at 90 degrees so I could see more of my code at once when programming. 4. The color is average. It is definitely not substandard, but if I were still doing design work I would not be satisfied with these monitors. That said, for such purposes I really doubt I (or anyone else with a decent amount of experience with that) would be satisfied by ANY display priced in < $100 range, and if you are not planning on doing things like that then this probably wont pose an issue for you. GOOD: 1. Price. This is a truly fantastic value and I would recommend it to anyone who wants an inexpensive monitor (unless they want a very, very cheap 800x600 or lower just to display a terminal for their server or something like that, in which case Id recommend bringing $10 to a couple garage sales - but that is a rare exception, so "anyone" isnt far off). 2. 1080p on 21.5" is rather crisp. I deliberately chose a smaller monitor not only to fit my desk but also because 1080p on, say, 27" starts to become a bit lackluster. I dont have that problem here at all. 3. ~~*~**aesthetic**~*~~. Seriously, though, its a very attractive monitor, and I mean this separately from the display. It is slim and sleek in appearance, with a base and bottom frame that look like brushed metal. The rest of the monitor besides the display is black. It overall looks pretty cool. 4. Quick and smooth response. I havent experienced any apparent delays when gaming or doing anything else. 5. Easy-to-navigate button menu that provides a significant amount of control over the display. A lot of that can be done through control panel/system preferences/graphics card software/etc without touching the monitor, but its convenient regardless. 6. Simple assembly. Thats true for most monitors, so this isnt a critical point, but this one was particularly quick. 7. Extremely fast shipping. Ordered at about 1am Friday the 19th and received early afternoon Saturday the 20th. This was with free Prime shipping, not one-day or anything. This could vary based on your location, but the fact that the seller is Amazon directly should help with shipping speed in general.

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.

Updated 10/11/18: I have bought two more of these since, for a multi-screen setup. I continue to rate these products 5-star! This came in well protected in a double box, the outer shipping box, wrapped inside with industrial paper and within the manufacturers box. The outer shipping box was a bit banged up but the interior box was fine. The monitor was intact and undamaged and packed well. (Hint save the box, wrap and foam for storage and if you move house). The monitor itself exceeds expectations, passing every online monitor test I could find. The default color is "warm" and it is slightly "less cool" than the Samsung 27" LED it replaced. Each monitor has its own slightly different tone within brand and model as well as across them. Visually, the image is clear thus far, no lines, dark spots, light bleed or any thing else. This from a professional photographer and the colors are true to real world.The stand is metal, easy to assemble in seconds and can be done while the actual monitor remains resting within wrap or foam. There are 2 HDMI ports, a VGA and a DVI port. One of the ports is a HDMI-MHL port. The buttons are located lower center right and it gets a bit of getting used to, learning to navigate the menus and explore the options. There is no in-package manual. I could have gone online, if I had chosen to, which I would recommend to the average user. The visual input switch is the leftmost button and will present you with all of the available options, but will default or go back to the active channel if there is only one source. For example with two computers, A & B if you have HDMI-2 on B and you shut it down; it will switch back automatically to HDMI-1 on computer A. The screen is quick to time out when you shut down the system or you lock screen and has no trouble waking up from "sleep". It does not "pop on" to check for signal. It has two speakers built into the back, but much like in flatscreen TV-sets, these are not designed to be primary speakers. There are audio in/out jacks (standard headphone sized) in the rear of the machine as well. I was hesitant to buy a little known brand, but this is a very nice monitor and one of the best Ive had. I did pick up the offered warranty for three years; they are well worth it. Ill update this review if any issues arise, but so far 5-stars.

To answer some questions.... Firstly this is a great monitor. I upgraded from a 24" TN panel to this one mainly for designing and occasional gaming. This monitor does have VESA mounts(remove brushed silver piece on back gently and unscrew base stand). I lost 1ms of response time compared to previous monitor but its not noticeable. Colors are great right out of the box but with a little adjusting you can get it perfect. Havent tried any other features or speakers of the monitor but had no dead pixels or issues on arrival. Id recommend this monitor to friends or family that need a little extra screen space and are looking for an IPS panel. 1080p looks great...not the best Ive ever seen but I didnt want to spend $500+ on a new one and this does the trick. Ill update this review if any issues come up in the future.

Edit: Changing review to 5 stars after spending more time with it. Ive dialed this in to look pretty darn close to my much more expensive 8-bit 27-inch monitor. Once youve calibrated as best as you can using the on-board controls (scrutinize every tick of the values!) against some calibration images then go into your windows color settings and make even finer adjustments there. Your software tweaks should be minimal if you did the hardware settings right and youll get great detail in darks and lights as well as an accurate color temperature. For reference my settings are: Contrast 35, Brightness 100, Eco mode Standard, Gamma1, DCR Off, Color Temp User, all DCB options off, Red 82, Green 68, Blue 75. After that it just needed a miniscule gamma bump and a tick less green in the Windows color config. Your panel will probably vary, though. Old Review: Color accuracy will never be "quite" right but you can get as close as this monitor will let you by manually setting your colors. On my particular panel greens were way overpowering and had to be set at a lower value than red and blue. It takes some wrestling to get a vibrant picture without crushing dynamic range. Buttons used to navigate OSD are the clumsiest Ive ever used and they feel flimsy so I worry that over-tinkering will definitely break them. NO HDMI OR DISPLAY PORT on this model really whittles its flexibility down. Be ready to use adapters unless you specifically plan to use VGA (why) or DVI. Only cables included were the power cable and a VGA cable so make sure you have your necessary digital cable on hand to use this. Ive used similarly sized/priced panels before that had better colors, buttons, and picture options by a good margin. That said, games look and move nicely at 1080p on a screen this size. Theres also NO option to set sharpness when using a digital input.

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 would give it 4.5 if I could but I feel its more fair to round up than down. The minimalism of the bezel and stand are well appreciated by me. For some reason with many other monitors Ive used putting the stand in place can be ridiculously complicated, but not so with this one. "Assembly" if you would even call it that was very quick, easy, and produced a sturdy result that I feel comfortable with. The picture looks great although it does bring me to the one thing I really dont care for about it -- getting around the settings menus and adjusting everything to where I wanted it was less than ideal. The buttons for the menu and navigation are located on the BACK of the monitor on the right side, meaning you cant look at the buttons to get around and look at whats changing on the monitor at the same time without a buddy or a mirror. It seems they could have put them on the bottom or even on the front without disrupting the sleek look too much. What makes it more frustrating when navigating the menu is that the buttons are counter-intuitive; in addition to the usual enter and exit buttons there are two buttons for getting around, but when I press the upper button the selection goes down, and when I press the lower button the selection goes up. Its not a deal breaker but its not like Im using these buttons all the time so it always gets a little frustrating whenever I decide to make an adjustment. That said, I feel like a got a great deal on an overall great product. If I didnt already have a larger primary monitor I would strongly consider getting one or two more of these. If I ever move to a setup of three or monitors I wouldnt mind having them all be one of these.

AOC I2267FW 22-Inch Class IPS Frameless/Slim LED Monitor, Full HD,250 cd/m2 Brightness,5ms,50M:1 DCR,VGA/DVI I bought this monitor back in August of 2016 and as of late January 2018, I have zero dead pixels or problems with this product. For the cheap price, this thing is wonderful. Sure, there is no swivel feature and the lack of ports in the back is kind of embarrassing, but thats what you get for spending $100 on a monitor. As far as color goes, it looks fantastic. Next to this monitor I have a 2560x1440p 144hz 1ms TN panel gaming monitor and sometimes the picture actually looks better on this cheap $100 monitor simply because of how much better the colors are, despite having a lower resolution and refresh rate. So while there are a few flaws, you can easily overlook them with the cheap price point.
