Review on 💻 Philips 226E9QDSB Frameless IPS Monitor - 1920X1080 FreeSync, Tilt Adjustment, Blue Light Filter, Flicker-Free, Wall Mountable, HD Flat Display by Jason Reiff

This rating applies only to the smallest 22" model 226E9QDSB with a viewable area of 22" (21.5"). VESA issue: I bought 2 of these specifically to mount the vesa to my desk. I have the VIVO dual mount here at Revain. Most Vesa mounts are universal. with 75x75 mm and 100x100 mm. The VESA holes on this monitor are 75mm and poorly placed. So when you install the plate, it will block all ports. You either just need to get a 75mm mount or get creative with plate placement. the monitor itself, it was a bad experience out of the box. The power/OSD switch is located in the center of the monitor on the back. It took me a minute to understand it and it takes a little getting used to. Windows 10 didn't automatically update the display driver, you need to go to the Phillips website. Pros: After installing the manufacturer's driver and going through the OSD (and in my case, the Radeon graphics settings), the colors are absolutely amazing. The monitor was also recognized by AMD Radeon software as it has Freesync enabled, which is great for those of you with Radeon graphics cards. Bad: Limited viewing angles for IPS. Take the time to tweak the settings to make this monitor shine. Final Thoughts: For the price, this is a good buy. In hindsight, I probably should have gone with the 24" as it's a bit small for work and play. The VESA mounting holes are an unforgivable oversight. The standout is the four-year warranty. If they gave me a new version of the monitors with an updated VESA layout, they would be worth five stars.
