Review on ๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ Revolutionize Your Interface with Planar PXL2230MW 22 Inch 16 Touchscreen by Wayne Sak

Revainrating 3 out of 5

great for touch but don't buy for pen input

I tried two of these monitors and both worked very well when I touched them with my fingers. Windows 8 is difficult to use due to the screen bezel, but given the price of borderless touchscreens, this disadvantage is tolerable. My real problem was the touch sensitivity of pen input devices. I've tried many different types of pens, including the original Surface Pen and capacitive pens. Both screens I tried had clear and defined dead zones to map. If you want to use pen input, don't buy this monitor, otherwise it's fine. Picture quality is good, although not as good as a dedicated monitor at the same price. The supplier was very accommodating on the first exchange (even though I had a defective monitor) but didn't charge for shipping on the second return.

Pros
  • Love it. Works perfectly. Goodbye
Cons
  • Screen Tearing: This occurs when the monitor's refresh rate is too slow, causing the image to appear choppy or distorted.
