Our Verdict

The Philips 221V8LB is a compact 21.5-inch monitor for tight desks, second screens and simple home setups. Its VA panel delivers deeper blacks and higher contrast than similar IPS screens, which helps with video, and 100Hz makes scrolling feel smoother than the 60Hz panels typical at this size. Full HD on a 21.5-inch screen gives sharp text, and Philips' flicker-free backlight and low-blue-light mode suit long workdays. HDMI and VGA inputs cover both modern laptops and older desktops, and the VESA mount makes it an easy fit on an arm or a wall. Philips backs its monitors with a four-year warranty, longer than most rivals. VA panels shift slightly in colour when viewed from an angle, so it is less suited to colour-critical work. As a reliable, small, inexpensive screen with a lot of buyer confidence, it is hard to fault.
