Review on ๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ Dell PF48H 21.5 Inch Discontinued Manufacturer 21.5", 1920x1080p HD Display by Chris Russo

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Text too small, grainy/sandy effect

I bought this because of the good reviews. However, the grainy or grainy effect is quite pronounced due to the heavy anti-reflective coating, as others have pointed out. I thought it wouldn't affect me but it does, it's annoying to look at. Also 1080p on a 21.5 monitor is a bit small and not comfortable. I wanted it because it's IPS, but IPS is overpriced, it's more important to get a monitor that's comfortable to look at and not just based on IPS itself. Instead, I bought a $199 HP 2511x from Frys and couldn't be happier.

Pros
  • respect for the environment. Not only does this monitor deliver efficiency and detail, it also meets EPEAT Gold Standards and is ENERGY STAR qualified.
Cons
  • outlet required
