Customer Ratings & Reviews

This screen is the most fragile screen ever. I only used it once and was swapping it out where it tipped over on my flat table and INSTANTLY broke. I understand I allowed it to tip over, however I every other monitor I have owned would have been able to survive a tipping considering it only fell a few inches.

Love our new baby just added to the collection. Hopefully we will get to buy more tech from Best Buy in the future.

I absolutely loved this monitor for the past couple of months of owning it. However today I bumped my wheel chair into my desk and caused the monitor to tip over towards the wall. A slow hit of about 2 inches caused the screen to break. Really disappointed.

bought it as a Christmas gift for my son when he opened it last week the screen was cracked. unfortunately passed the date of return

Half of the monitor went dark after couple of months. Very disappointing.

Corner screen was broken when it came out of the box

Bought this for a second monitor, for my gaming set up, I use it for discord/music/social media while I play games on the other monitor. For what I use it for it’s perfect. It’s 1080 resolution and 60 fps and the material of the screen doesn’t feel cheap. The width is as thing as a credit card and it’s super easy to assemble. I had the box opened to it on and sitting on my desk in under 2 minutes. If you need a second monitor or something for work/business this is what you are looking for.

The price was very good. I was pleasantly surprised with the clarity of the screen. I also like the look of the monitor itself.

Good screen clarity, and just the right size. I like the smaller size because it takes up less space on the desk, but it is plenty big to see everything well. I wish it had built in speakers and microphone like my old one had.

This has been an excellent budget monitor for my dual setup. It is large enough to use for admin work. Its light, sleek, and easy to setup. For $100 it was a great deal.

This monitor has a fantastic display. While 22 inches is slightly smaller size than the market standard of 24 inches, the smaller display at the same 1080p resolution actually produces a better picture. PROS - Bright and clear display. I did not make any changes to the monitor's settings, and was very happy with the picture. The colors are a bit more saturated, but this monitor has a glare-free display (meaning it's not reflective), so this is actually impressive. - Excellent viewing angles. I could almost look at the monitor from the side and there was absolutely no distortion of the color. - Wide tilt. This monitor would work well in an environment where it is placed higher or lower than the average height of the viewer in that environment. For most users sitting in front of it, it can easily be adjusted to that user's height. - Incredibly thin bezel. The matte screen goes to the very edge of the monitor, meaning there is no space where the screen and bezel meet for dust to collect as the monitor ages. At the same time, the very slight bezel behind that screen is almost hard to notice. - Blue light reduction is almost unnoticeable when it comes to the colors on the screen. I did not feel as though I had the orange "hue" that a lot of blue-light-reduction seems to cause. - Surprisingly intuitive buttons for adjustments and input. There are actually no labels for the buttons other than the power button (and the on/standby light is very small), but simply pressing any of the buttons brings up a menu on the screen, with options lining up directly above the button location, making them very easy to use just by touch. CONS - No height adjustments. While the screen tilt is generous, there is no height adjustment to this monitor. - Not VESA mountable. You will have to use the stand with this monitor. However, I appreciate the open design of the stand base, as it makes a handy area to place small objects such as pens, flash drives, SD cards, paper clips, and other items that tend to slide and roll around on the desk. For me personally, this monitor lacks a couple of features that could greatly improve it for a power user like myself. CONSIDERATIONS FOR POWER USERS - Use one of the buttons for channel changing instead of color or brightness. I frequently have multiple devices plugged into my monitors, and I prefer to have a button that quickly changes the input ("channel") rather than having to go through a serious of menus just to change that input. - More HDMI ports. Again, as a power user, I would appreciate more inputs than just 1 HDMI and 1 VGA. I will often have a second computer, a streaming device, or a game system plugged into the monitor, depending on the location I am using the monitor. My primary desk has 3 different computers set up on it, so I would have to create a complicated setup in order to have multiple devices set up on this monitor. - No speakers. While speakers built in to monitors are generally terrible, they are handy to have when you need them. I have to give a couple of kudos to HP for the packaging and assembly of this monitor. In most cases, the monitor is centered in the box and the cables and accessories are dropped in on the front and back. Opening the box, I found all of the accessories organized in a "tray" (see my photo), and removing the tray revealed the monitor itself. Very easy to unpack. The stand was also so easy to attach, and FINALLY, no tools required!!! For the price point, this is a fantastic monitor and I would recommend it to almost anyone needing one for everyday use.

Easy set up. It's the perfect size for my desk. It has such a clear view and works great.

I have a laptop that work gave me to work from home from time to time and the screen was just too small for me to have multiple applications open at the same time. This monitor isn’t too expensive and the aesthetics looked nice in the photos I saw online. It also looked like it would match well with my laptop. I pulled it out of the box and the first thing I noticed was how light weight it was. The best part was that no tools were needed to put it together! Once the stand was on I ran the wires. The wire organizer built into the stand is a nice touch and it routes the wires to keep them out of the way. Once I was done running the wires, it stood sturdily on my desk. The monitor doesn’t swivel or raise and lower, but it does tilt. There is an older VGA connection and an HDMI connection as well, so it was easy to connect. Once plugged in it quickly mirrored my laptops display. The colors were natural and not yellowish like you get on some monitors. It looked nice right out of the box and I didn’t need to adjust any of the settings. There is an anti-reflection layer on the screen that helps cut down on reflections in a bright room and it helped with the light coming into my home office with the shades open to let the light in. Outside of the bottom piece of the monitor, the bezel is small, maybe around 3/16 of an inch and it looks nice on the desk. Overall I’m very pleased with the monitor and I look forward to many years of use.

I love this monitor! This little monitor works so awesomely well with my Mac Air laptop. I'm a travel agent and need the extra monitor to be able to look at various open windows while working with my clients. I wish my Mac Air was able to handle 2 monitors because I would buy another one of these! It is easy to setup and start using. It is small enough to not overpower my desk, and it's lightweight that I can travel with it. We travel in our RV and it's small enough to take this monitor along so I can work from the road. It's perfect.

an excellent picture can be stated that it was affordable and great customer service in regards to this monitor, super easy to assemble and light, the only drawback is the monitor only tilts doesn't go up and down,

The HP - 21.5" IPS LED full HD FreeSync Monitor is a sleek beauty. Can you call a monitor sexy? I think this one qualifies. It is lightweight and in the medium range as far as size goes, not too big, not too small. I have it as a secondary screen for my laptop and it works great. The picture quality does deliver on every level. The colors are asethetically pleasing, even with the low blue light filter. That was a HUGE draw for me. I use this filter on my phone 24/7 and it really helps on eye strain. The viewing angles are an impressive feat too. You don't realize it till you see what your old style monitor was delivering compared to this. After business hours, the monitor is transferred to my daughter's room to use as a secondary monitor for her homework and gaming. Another monitor like this is in my future. The monitor comes well packaged and with the necessary cables. Set up takes just a few minutes and you're in business.

I bought an extra screen for WFH and school work. It has been a good devising yet far. It is thin, sleek, and I absolutely love the quality. The instructions were easy to follow. It took less than 10 minutes to set this up. All the cables required to set this up with my lap top were provided. You do need a separate HDMI port if your lap top doesn’t automatically comes with one. I had an HDMI port converter which I plugged the monitor wire into and then plugged that into the lap top. Other than that, I absolutely love it and I hope it can last me a long time.

Easy to setup. Great clear picture. Great price. Wish had built in speakers

I got two of these monitors two make an affordable double-monitor setup on a small desk. They are lightweight and don’t take up a lot of space, and the picture goes nearly to the edge, so you can really maximize your space for your setup. The picture quality is good and bright as well.
