Why is EVERYONE Buying this Monitor?? - HP 22CWA

[@lasagnapapa]

To anyone planning on buying this monitor STOP!!! HP released an updated version of this monitor for $10 more, and it has speakers built in, 5ms delay instead of 7ms and the screen is bigger, with even thinner bezels!! Its called the VH240a, I used to have this monitor but upgraded to the VH240a and it is SO much better and almost the exact same price!

[@FakeJeep]

From my company's perspective? It's a 22" IPS 1080p monitor with HDMI for 90 bucks... That's basically gold for small surveillance systems that we sell. Normally a monitor like that goes for 120ish or so with an HDMI output. Also the VGA output is still a benefit to us since we can use a longer cable for the monitor if necessary without needing an amplifier for HDMI, which we have done on multiple occasions due to customer requests and building design. So ya.. price and features is why. Personally I have a 144hz 1080p monitor for gaming.

Unfortunately it's often not as simple as setting say 75Hz in the Graphics driver section. It may say that but it wont actually run at that when you test it. Very monitor dependant and often other software is needed.

[@bossbaby8745]

Jason Dagless through Nvidia control pannel you can lower monitor resolution and increase refresh rate it's not hard do I do it all the time and if u don't want to do that there are downloadable software that is free that can force a over clock on a monitor but it will most likely make your monitor die prematurely if u are talking about modding the monitor to gain a higher refresh rate that's cool and I would watch that

[@bossbaby8745]

Jason Dagless and it is true 75 hz dude it just makes your monitor die faster tho

[@noaimnoskillnokill3947]

Jason Dagless I tried to put up the refresh rates like that (changing 60 Hz to 75 and stuff) when I started to get into PC building with my first setup. Did not take long for me to realize that it just didn't work because it would simply set the setting to 60 all the time. And one time I got an issue because I needed to set the resolution to 1080ip or what it's called for the TV and it just put the refresh rate to 30 Hz... I'm glad this problem vanished after a week or so...

Marc TV yeah there's some decent cheap options out there these days.

[@noth606]

I don't think the prices have changed in like 4-5yrs, I bought an ASUS IPS 23.6? Inch IPS monitor in like 2013-2014 for ~$200 which also has some boosting/timing features that make it perfect for mid range gaming. I don't remember the model of it now but I think there were a few different options similar to it at the time except for the input lag/speed but that did have decent IPS panels.

[@woooweee]

Yes and no, cheap IPS doesn't mean iphone grade IPS, its a vague category for a whole bunch of sub panel types so there are actually many garbage IPS out there now, I've bought some cheap Asus and even Dell and they've had extremely poor viewing angles, the dell's infinity edge is the ultimate joke, a gap and dim edge make it look like the screens pulling away from you at the edge, its pretty awful design just to make a bezel a few mm thinner. I've heard that another reason for the picture difference is use of cheaper polarizers on cheap displays. But the problem is that on most low end monitors they won't tell you what panel type is being used, e-ips, ah-ips etc. I've returned a couple monitors that were almost as bad as TN, even 4 year old professional line HP like the z23i or z24i line still look much better than many cheap "IPS" displays today, the tech hasn't improved that much, only in terms of pixel density and refresh, but it hasn't trickled down to the low end yet. The Asus vz239h was so bad that as a side monitor you could see the gradient in brightness clear as day from the viewing angle. So always be aware, cheaps not always good still. A used z24i from ebay is a better deal than most of these, 24" 16:10, usb hub, full tilt and height stand and vesa to boot.

asus vg248qe # Masterace. Such a great 144 hz 1080p screen, Dont settle...Get the 144 hz, at least if you can get 100+ FPS on 1080p in the games you play. 144 HZ is just the next step for your main screen.

[@bchery1]

Djuntas exactly what I have. Does an awesome job

[@Thirsty_Fox]

It's the only way to go. Takes some adjustment to get the colours right, though.

[@RedShirtGuy96]

I use the VG245H its 1080p as well but only 75hz which is fine for me. As I use it as a secondary screen for my GTX 1050ti equipped laptop. And pushing a lot of games past 75 fps is a little on the iffy side when using a 1050ti.

[@bchery1]

Thirsty Fox what color settings do you run? I’ve been iffy with the colors as well but thought it was just me being picky.

[@Thirsty_Fox]

bchery1, Contrast 50, Color temp->User Mode (Red 100, Green 90, Blue 80) for everyday stuff. For gaming, I use Night Mode with Brightness 100, Contrast 80, Saturation 50, Color Temp same as above. It's still not color-accurate or anything but seems to look decent enough for most stuff. Out of the box, things looked pretty strange.

[@rickvantage]

I bought six of these for our office. They are just great office monitors when having a second monitor for solidworks is all you need.

[@thedarksideofnature1221]

Not everyone. I did not. :(

[@clientornaka4690]

Dude dont get butt hurt because you think you got grouped up. It's a popular monitor so he says "everyone". Its just him being dramatic.

[@JecIsBec]

Clien Tornaka Someone woke up the wrong side of bed. It's clearly a joke calm tf down lol

[@clientornaka4690]

Jec Sure drop the “Its just a joke” line. That works every time lol

[@ZaylaaZiaa]

Clien Tornaka because its obviously a joke?

[@Avliv_Satan]

I have the lenovo l22e-20 and I'm pretty sure that in 2020/21, this is probably among the best bang for your buck monitors out there, works perfectly for gaming and media consumption.

[@tristantristan8996]

Because Linus I spent all my money on your merch

[@mashhoodey1236]

0:37 “peasant trash” Linus says while holding the monitor proudly in his hand 😂 😆 😝

[@ATLAScom]

Very nice setting in which you're filming ^^

[@LnnyOsoTo]

I bought the 120$ recommendation because I wanted that VESA compatibility and I still use and I still love it However, it is starting to bug out on me a little with random green dots on really dark images and I'm going to continue blaming the monitor for that because if I blame the GPU... Yeah... Besides that it's been excellent and it continues to be excellent

[@deividaslaukionis]

Check the cable first :P on both sides

[@morbid1.]

Linus live in his bubble so long it's kinda funny how he reacts.

[@-ll-l---l-]

He live in the future and we live in the past :D

[@Why_It]

I know it's not meant to be taken this way, but I think it's funny when he's comparing $90 monitor to $500 - $5,000 monitors. "Why are people buying this trash when you could have these?"

[@startide]

He is clearly aware of this, he often mentions it when they make videos. Often people are more interrested in the technology rather than in a buyers guide, that's why car shows have those super expensive super cars that nobody can ever pay for anyway. Same core idea. With a significant difference : what's 3000 usd today will be 500 in a year, and 200 in 2.

[@NotTheCIA1961]

He's comparing them to the cheap monitor in a joking way, and accenting how underpriced this monitor is for its performance.

[@deanskre8399]

[@Phlegethon]

makes for a good portable monitor it's cheaper than most portable monitors at 15.4" but you'd need a pretty big carry on to take it

[@aidanconrad9305]

Why Linus..... you are reading my mind or phone Last night I was thinking of buying this and I needed a review😂 of course the best time to get a review

[@dogeyes7498]

Just ask yourself: do all people can afford those monitors. Then you will get the answer

[@kylehodermann8449]

I have that one because it’s cheap :/

[@asakalkrsyx4304]

KyleDoesGames And why arra you so sad? :C

[@chefbigjay4154]

KyleDoesGames I have curved monitor thinking if I bought it it'd look better than my old but it's the same possibly worse :/

[@UmVtCg]

Because you are a cheapskate

[@RetroWolfReviews]

Rem or maybe because budgets.

[@LeonRivia]

linus says its good so its okay :)

[@amrokas]

I use my old and cheap Pavilion 23cw that has 100% sRGB and overclocks to 77hz. It is very good for the price - paid 120€ few years ago.

[@ryannedits]

who else watching this with this monitor xD

[@dangerousdazza]

ryxnッ nope I’m watching it on a 65” HDR tv 👍🏼

[@gabe1067]

[@yungcazhregisterakalilbroo7745]

[@bensdusty1693]

Darren Armstrong yeah but who knows that # by heart

[@RioPetersen]

I have this monitor, great buy

[@VXNmuffin]

Rio Petersen BestBuy?

[@Ecliptic47]

Linus, try to not drop anything at LTX. Try to super glue everything to yourself to ensure you dont drop anything

[@thephenix4663]

Thanks man your reviews helped us like a lot me and my friend were searching around for some cheap monitor with good specs luckily we stumbled upon this

[@777wrath]

"That's pretty Spartan" I'm now using this as a way to refer to something that's bare bones.

[@Porkmeat]

if im not mistaken this moniter was best selling like two years ago but costed 120$

[@FreyrFox]

Im using some old cheapo Samsung monitor. if anything this would be my main display and the one im on would be secondary.

[@Algernon7]

I've been gaming on a 22cwa for over 5 years until I recently jumped to 1440p. Still use it as a secondary display, best 90 bucks I ever spent.

[@naneri]

If you want to replace an imac screen just rip it from this monitor instead of buying a replacement

[@civilvilvil9625]

Ykkkkhj

[@MeCJay12]

"Waaaaaay better than gaming on this cheapo HP monitor" *Holds up my monitor*

[@manofexploits7591]

He insulted my hp monitor I have 😭

[@HollowPs]

Man Of Exploits you using that hp 1707 monitor from 10 years ago too huh?

[@Z0MGH4X]

Not everyone can notice the pixel response time (the name is misleading, it's actually how long it takes for an 100% black pixel to change to 100% white) unless you move your 100% black cursor on an 100% white background like on a text editor where you just MIGHT notice a slight trail if you have a monitor with a very slow pixel response time (5ms+).

[@Natewu188]

Budget.

[@puskywastaken]

[@devinbeauchamp9631]

Tonyert yes. This is definitely the same thing that happened to that nest video

[@karnige5804]

people trash products because they aren't 4k, 60 fps, or have low end rigs but in the end it's funny that 95% of ppl do. guess you shouldn't listen to those keyboard warriors

[@randysalinas5388]

The Karnige exactly we are all still part of the PC community and things like this is why console owners stick to console gaming.

[@laughinkala]

I wouldn't say 4k is the standard yet, but 60 fps is starting to look like the bare minimum to a lot of people.

[@ravenXcozmo]

Randy Salinas things like what ??? A cheap monitor ? I own a console what’s that make me? I also make $6500 a month after taxes a month so no I’m not poor or cheap that’s just what I choose to play on. Not every console gamer is a peasant in fact some of those so called peasants prefer a plug and play machine rather than building your own. I for one don’t feel the interest of building a machine. But to each it’s own

[@fineartpottamus9020]

snipercanez you may be not poor or cheap and not every console gamer is a peasant but you sure are one.

[@cadenchurchill4296]

My first decent display was a very similar HP 27” 1080p Pavilion monitor. The Alienware QD-OLED display I have now is vastly better, but for me at the time this was a huge upgrade from what I had.

[@ionceateapinecone]

you can tell this is a video for the american viewers when I check to see that this monitor is actually 220 canadian rupples.

[@keyonlo2239]

ionceateapinecone im canadian, and i found a 89 dollar version and the 200 dollar one aswell. It depends on the link cuz amazon is snake and fudge the prices.

[@hmmmborg4040]

2 sponsors per video wow Linus

[@teddy0776]

Bugatti Sanxajns ye but i dont mind they are intresting some times

[@roscoebaram681]

Linus: "peasant monitor" Me: *laughs in $80 hand me down monitor*

[@joelguzman9280]

Laughs in 50$ used off local market monitor Tbh I got a killer deal. 1080p 60hz ips panel. I spent 100$ for that and a headset. And the headset was a 70$ head set new lol.

[@ECrespo175]

Got this back on 10/2016 for $100. Its a great monitor, just wish it had the possibility of removing the stand. I would like to buy another one of these and stick them to a dual monitor stand. I work from home sometimes and this monitor does the job.

[@safye4]

Because when you drop one of them off your monitor stand and it cracks on your keyboard you can go buy another one and not feel bad.

[@tommytexter4054]

Why is everyone buying this monitor??? I am not.

[@jnieto490]

Tommy Texter wow aren't you a special cookie

[@CaveyMoth]

I ain't buyin' it either

[@qdfxrg]

Wow aren't you two a couple of special cookies

[@bigjoepro75]

Somebody needs to get me a glass of special milk to go with these special cookies

[@alienorbiter]

I'm not buying it, neither is my grandma

[@dustato3412]

As soon as I heard “5” I left

[@mrfoxxygrandpa4869]

For anyone looking to buy this monitor i would recommend it. it’s super cheap for the quality, you’ll get a great bang for your buck. I’ve had mine for 3 years and overclocked it to 70Hz and it works super well
