Asus VW222U / VW222S

Bright and clear monitor – Crisp and vibrant colours, very responsive and has lasted me a few years now. It has a 19" screen so its reasonable. Probably wont be around anymore because you can get much better monitors which are bigger, better and cheaper and probably use less power too. Anyway I hope this review helped in some way. Big screen

Good – I like it!.., I Run it on the lowest brightness setting and there was no software calibration needed to get the colour warmth to sit at 6500 kelvin. Other view options built into the monitor are great., While I would like a monitor that is evenly balanced across the board its hard to find a monitor that will preform that well for less than $5000, Beggars cant be choosers and this beggar is happy. Great colour after adjusting, nice inbuilt features & power light is not too bright. Some edge lighting visible on black screen (black gets brighter closer to the backlight tubes).

Good – I was worried about getting dead/bright pixels. I bought this monitor about nine months ago and have had no problems yet. The image is bright and a black background is properly black (with some monitors you see the back-light). No dead/bright pixels yet, black is not too bright. - Even when turning the volume up to its loudest a movie on DVD can be hard to hear (but maybe that's to do with my sound card?).

- On/off button is tiny and needs to be pressed hard, but as it's on the side of the screen, you have to hold the monitor at the same time else the monitor just pivots when you press the button.
