Philips New 27-inch Class Thin Full HD (1920 x 1080) 100Hz Monitor, VESA, HDMI x 1, VGA Port x1, Eye Care, 4 Year Advance Replacement Warranty, 271V8LB, Black

Great Quality at a Great Price
This is a very nice 22inch monitor. I like that the monitor has great picture quality. The monitor is very easy to use and assemble. The monitor has great sound quality. I like that the monitor is very light weight. The monitor was very east to mount to my monitor arm. The monitor was at an excellent price. I like the refresh rate ad response time on the monitor.

Worth the price.
Great monitor for the price. Perfect size, lightweight too. Easy setup, multiple connections, vga, hdmi. Fast shipping. Fast refresh rate.

About that 120 Hz — yep!
Lots of people have shared that this is a very good monitor — plug and play, beautiful picture, etc. But just in case someone comes looking to see about that advertised 120 Hz refresh rate, I wanted to write that YES, IT DOES 120 Hz.I am using a mid-range graphics card (i.e., not even CLOSE to the top of the line) — an Nvidia GForce RTX 4060Ti. At first it seemed 120 Hz wasn’t available, but once I added a Custom Resolution to the Nvidia Control Panel, it worked just fine (see the pic).If you still have trouble getting that 120 Hz refresh rate, you can try the Custom Refresh Utility tool (search for it), which can convince Windows that yes, the monitor supports it.One nit about the monitor: Because of the curve of the back, the VESA mount is hard to use — a VESA plate won’t sit flat, so you’ll need longer screws to hold it in place. I would go so far as to say it’s not *really* a VESA mount, but it’s workable.

Various observations
This review provides a list of my observations about the 21.4 inch (call it 22) Philips VA monitor 221V8LB. (Note: monitor sizes are measured *diagonally*, width and height are smaller.) But first let me explain why I got this monitor to replace my almost ten year old 27 inch HP IPS monitor 27wm. While the HP monitor was still fine, it had some superficial surface damage, visible under certain light, that annoyed me. And I decided I really wanted a smaller monitor to replace it. Cataract surgery, combined with one particularly problematic eye, has left me unable to focus at different distances. And progressive glasses are fine for driving a car or other vehicle, but not for much else. So I wear my reading glasses to view my monitor. And if the center of my 27 inch monitor was in maximum focus at about 12 inch, the corners really started getting far enough to get a bit fuzzy. In addition my eyes are very long, reducing my peripheral vision, so having the corners at a very large angle was awkward. A smaller size monitor, but of the same full HD resolution, like my laptop, seemed a good idea. And 22 inch seemed to be about the smallest they sell nowadays. (Also, while my laptop screen is a lot smaller at 13.25 inch, when I am traveling I do find that really too small to see easily.) The Philips was cheap, and worked out well in increasing my comfort. The list of my observations now follows.1) Power cable. The monitor comes with a relatively short power cable of about 5 ft; too short for me to pull the monitor towards me when I am sitting back in my chair. For comparison, the HP power cord was a bit over 6 ft. In addition, you cannot simply switch power cords, because the Philips comes with a highly unusual monitor power connector. So, if 5 ft is too short, you may need some sort of extension cord. I had one handy, but if you do not, factor in another $5 or whatever and the hassle of getting one. (I do not know how many people return the monitor because the cord is not long enough, but I suspect the manufacturer might be penny-wise and dollar-foolish.) (I initially measured the length as 54 inch and was planning to subtract a star, but 5 ft vs 6 ft seems a bit too small for that, though the nonstandard cable does not help.)2) Speakers. There are no speakers in this model, and the web page never claims there are. (But it also does not highlight that they are missing. Not smart, if you ask me. Think of all the hassle and expense of the user returning the product.) Apparently you need a model name ending in an A (for audio?) to get speakers. However, there *is* an aux port, unlike one review said. I found this aux port *very* convenient, as for unknown reasons the aux port on my docking station stopped working a long time ago. Now I could connect my aux stereo speakers plus woofer permanently to my monitor instead of awkwardly to my laptop itself. (Actually, I could do this also with my old monitor, but I never thought of it at all, and would have needed a HDMI cable instead of my VGA one. VGA does not do audio.) Note that analog aux is not going to be of the quality that digital HDMI could in principle provide. One reviewer complained that aux speakers are almost impossible to get nowadays. Well, as I write this, go to a big cheap department store near you and there they are for $13. I got these earlier for my spare old laptop and they work fine.3) HDMI cable. The reviews AI claimed that some users complained of not getting a HDMI cable. Well, I went over the most recent reviews as of Oct 14, 2025, and I found 9 reviews explicitly stating that the HDMI cable was there and only 3 saying it was not. I suspect that these 3 may have bought used “like new” monitors, though only one of the 3 said so explicitly. Unlike the power cord, the HDMI cable turned out to be long enough for me to duct it through the cable guide of my MOUNTUP stand. It is hard for me to measure it accurately in its convoluted path, but it seems to be about 55 inch.

tal cual es el producto a la descripción,

Nice monitor, good sizeI was worried at first that you couldn’t adjust the tilt to the screen, but you can!You have to push a little bit harder at the beginning and once you do that it’s easier to adjust

Es un gran monitor calidad precio, la vdd lo compre esperando tener una pantalla más grande a la de mi laptop, para jugar y trabajar mucho más agusto, ya que antes batallaba en ver esos detalles mínimos, que al tener un monitor podía solucionar.Sin decir que es una gran pantalla con la que puedes trabajar sin fatigarte ya que cuenta con varios modos (Standard, Internet, Juego, Fácil Lectura y Protección a Luz Azul) que se pueden ajustar con unos simples clics para una experiencia más personalizada.LO ÚNICO que quizás tenga, es que es un monitor a imagen, es decir que no cuenta con altavoces integrados, por lo que necesitas altavoces externos, ya sea bocina o incluso unos audífonos pueden funcionar. Al menos yo al contar con una laptop, puedo transferir el audio hacia allá sin mucho problema, pero es un punto a considerar, si es que estás armando tú propia PC, tener esa salida de audio externa.
