Performance
The 1920×1080 resolution is crisp and sharp, delivering excellent clarity for everyday tasks and gaming. Color reproduction is decent, though not as vibrant as some higher-end monitors. I did experience some backlight bleed in darker scenes, which was slightly distracting during movie watching but didn’t significantly impact the gaming experience. The response time is acceptable for casual gaming, but serious gamers might find it lacking in fast-paced titles. The viewing angles are decent, with minimal color shift even when viewing from an angle. I found the included HDMI cable to be sufficient for my needs; the signal was consistently clean and showed no noticeable problems.
While the monitor works perfectly fine for office tasks, multitasking is fairly comfortable thanks to the resolution. The colors were adequate for my work. However, for gaming, the monitor is better suited to casual gaming, which did not expose any shortfalls. For example, games like Stardew Valley looked stunning and performed well. Moving to more demanding games like the Witcher III, the performance was adequate, but any fast movements did expose some slight blurriness.
Pros & Cons
- Pros: Affordable price, good resolution, decent connectivity, simple setup
- Cons: Slight backlight bleed, response time could be better for competitive gaming, colors aren’t exceptionally vibrant
Final Verdict
The ELS-V22VFHD LED-1 offers great value for its price. It’s an excellent choice for those seeking a reliable monitor for everyday use and casual gaming. While it doesn’t boast cutting-edge features or spectacular color accuracy, its performance is more than adequate for most users. If you are a competitive gamer seeking the absolute best response times and color accuracy, you might want to consider a more premium option. But for general use, casual gaming, and a good value proposition, this monitor is well worth considering. I would recommend it.
