Asus VS229H-P 22-Inch LED Monitor
List Price: $ 179.99
Price:
Great product, but marred with panel issues,
I was convinced to purchase two of these recently launched monitors after searching for a cheap IPS monitor. It also helped that there was only a $20 price difference (at time of purchase) between this and the similarly sized VS228H-P.
After receiving them, set up was simple. There are some preset brightness/contrast settings, but I typically leave them off. The colors are spot on and the picture is great. Whether playing a video game or watching a movie, there is no ghosting or slow down.
However, not everything is great. In the two original monitors I purchased, I found severe lightbleeding coming from the bottom left corner of the panel. This is only partially noticeable during normal usage and lighting, but anytime a darker image shows on the screen or the monitor is used in a low light environment, it is extremely distracting. I do not know if this a temporary manufacturing defect since the product just launched, but I after exchanging the worse of my two original monitors, I still found the same issue on the newer monitor.
Pros:
– Good Price
– IPS
– Plenty of ports (hdmi, dvi, vga)
Cons:
– Backlighting issue

|GREAT VALUE IPS,
Beautiful IPS color output and viewing angles – Great contrast – Fast response time 5ms NOT 14ms – mean latency is 11 seconds – Good for gaming – Great price for performance Deep blacks – lots of options for connecting
I called Asus about the response time because it says 5ms on the box and there web sight and they confirmed it is actually 5ms I believe they are getting this model confused with the VS229H which is 14ms and doesn’t have TRACE FREE overdrive option like the VS229H-P does.
Anyway, great monitor and I guess i was lucky because I see no backlight bleed with mine.

|Affordable IPS, love it!,
I was looking for a monitor to go with my Dell XPS so I tried a 22 inch LED Dell monitor on sale for $129 but the colors seemed dull. The store was nice enough to let me test the ones on display since I took my laptop & HDMI cable. Many other monitors seemed dull as well. Sharp but the colors just weren’t right. The guy at the store suggested the most affordable IPS they had — this one, the ASUS VS229H-P (which they sold for $179 plus tax = $192). Finally, I found what I was looking for… colorful and the text was sharp. Luckily, they didn’t have it in stock so right from the store I looked it up on Amazon mobile app and found it for $163 ($29 less). Two days later via Prime, bam — an awesome monitor now complements my Dell XPS.
Pro’s:
Amazing color, bright & sharp.
Price — can’t beat $163 for IPS.
Design — very sleek, nice stand (moves up & down).
Connections (HDMI, DVI & VGA).
Good response time.
Cons:
No speakers (you can connect external speakers, of course).
No vertical stand.
Overall an excellent monitor. If it had built-in speakers (which most people don’t care about anyway) & a vertical stand, it would be the (100%) perfect monitor… but those are nit picks. A well deserved 5 stars!
