Benq G2222HDL

For the price, you aren’t offered much but the BenQ G2222HDL gives good all round performance for almost any use. If you are looking for an affordable monitor that looks good, with ‘LED’ somewhere in the description and do not care about the extra...

LED backlighting, decent price

No HDMI port, stand can't rotate and its height isn't adjustable

The BenQ G2222HDL isn't big on features, but the beauty of this screen is in the image - and the fact that you're getting a relatively large picture for so little. For the price, this BenQ puts up a good showing.
