ASUS IPS, LED, HDMI 21.5" Widescreen LCD Monitor (VS229H-P) Review

Need a monitor? Want dual monitors? Maybe several? The ASUS VS line is the perfect option. I personally plug it into my laptop for when I'm at my desk but it's awesome for a desktop too.

What did I look for in my monitor? 

-Price. The ASUS VS monitors from 21in to 24in are under $200!

-LED. Although not that important, I spend a lot of time with my computer on and would like my monitor not be burning hot. LED lit monitors generally do not get very hot and are more efficient.

-Slim elegant design. The VS line is the definition of slim and elegance of all the ASUS monitors.

-No extra fluff. I didn't want built in monitors, etc. I had my own Razer Ferox speakers.

-HDMI. My laptop only supports HDMI but my ASUS also came with other ports.

-1080p. High quality!

-IPS. These panels allow a greater viewing angle which I wanted cause I tilt my screen a bit and I generally want to use this as a movie show monitor with friends as well. However I hear other panels have better movement while IPS excel in color, it is negligible. 

-Great contrast/color

-Wall mountable

Aren't these features incredibly enticing for the price? They easily beat out competitors like Dell (overpriced).

Slim!!!
