Overview

Excellent LED images with striking colours



Enjoy a great picture for a small price when you buy the Philips 223V5LHSB2 monitor! This 21.5" LED display with Full HD resolution features image quality enhancement technologies for crisp, clear viewing and natural colours. With its excellent performance, it will be an ideal purchase for everyday tasks, including multimedia entertainment.

This monitor uses LED technology to achieve crisp, vibrant colours. The white LEDs are semiconductors that allow for fast, intense and even brightness, thus saving time in focusing. LEDs are mercury-free and comply with environmentally friendly recycling and disposal processes. The colour reproduction is optimal due to the uniform brightness of the display.


Optimised performance with SmartControl Lite


SmartControl Lite is the monitor control software with a new generation 3D icon-based graphical user interface. It allows users to adjust most monitor settings such as colour, brightness, screen calibration, multimedia functions, ID management, etc. with the mouse.


Incredible depth of detail


SmartContrast is a Philips technology that analyses the content you are viewing by automatically adjusting the colours and controlling the backlight intensity to improve contrast. This results in better quality digital images and videos and a better enjoyment of darker video games. In Economy Mode, the contrast and backlight are adjusted for optimal viewing of common desktop applications with minimal power consumption.


Maximum viewing comfort


This Full HD display offers a high definition 1920 x 1080p widescreen resolution. Thanks to its scalable technology, this display supports 1080p signals from any source, including Blu-ray and other advanced HD game consoles. The signal processing is optimised to accept and process very high signal quality and resolution. You get ultra-sharp, flicker-free images with perfect brightness and colour.


Environmentally friendly


Philips LED-backlit monitors do not contain mercury, one of the most toxic natural substances for humans and animals. So they are completely environmentally friendly from manufacturing to disposal.

    Good for what is required of him.

    - The product is as described, it comes with a VGA cable, the design is compact, the price is right, and it is not too power hungry.
    Easy to install, simple to adjust with buttons on the bottom of the monitor, menu navigation is classic.
    For office work as well as multimedia, the rendering is correct with its clean image, and quite precise.
    Clearly, for a rather basic use, it will do very well.
    There is a small black point, because the stand is not adjustable... too bad.

    - Beware of gamers!
    You should not ask this screen to do more than office work and multimedia, because the panel is a "TN" type.
    This implies a shallower colour display, and a smaller viewing angle than the "IPS" and "VA" panels (read the data sheet carefully).
    So for gaming, this is not the best screen.

    In short, it is overall a good product. Good for office and multimedia use (basic use), but not really for gaming.

    Poor quality

    I receive the product in a correct packaging however, first lighting 1 dead pixel!
    Second point: The screen is of very poor quality! The colour is whitish even after many adjustments!
    I have the same screen bought 1 year ago, I put the same settings nothing changes! I don't recommend it!

    CLEAR

    Very good
    Product conforms
    Easy to install
    Possible adjustments to the image, thanks to the buttons located on the monitor
    Not very intuitive menu navigation, but you have to look at the symbols above the adjustment buttons.
    The resolution is good but just a bit limited for the size of the screen
    I've done my 100 characters now?

    Very good for the price

    Used by my daughter with a Raspberry pi 4 to have a cheap computer to work remotely.
    It's light, adjustable, the image is good, but she doesn't use it in a very sophisticated way either...
    LDLC is impeccable as usual!

    Sore eyes.

    I've been using an old Acer 17" 500:1 contrast screen made in 2007 for several years.
    I naively thought that a 2020 screen could only be better. I was wrong!
    The blacks are not black, there is permanently a bluish and non-uniform haze on the screen, like a reflection. I discovered that this is called "backlight bleed" and that it is accepted by the manufacturers and a good part of the customers. What a step backwards, my arms are falling off!
    I use my computer mainly at night, the sites I often visit are set to "night mode" (black background), I also play a lot and the backlight bleed bothered me all the way through and gave me a headache after an hour, my eyes permanently squinted.
    Adjusting brightness and contrast doesn't change anything, nor do the colours.
    I sent the screen back and put my old Acer back on until I find something else.
    I don't recommend it if you are a night owl.

    No HDMI cable

    VGA AND HDMI screen without HDMI cable supplied, contact with technical service, explanation: the supplier chooses which cable to supply with the screen so it is the VGA which is useless in the event of use in HDMI on laptop with only HDMI port.
    The details of the cable supplied are not specified on the data sheet accessible by consumers but apparently visible to the technical service.
    The technical service is not very pleasant but very eager to sell us the extra cable on the side, for my part I gladly exchange it for the VGA.

    philips screen

    this screen fulfils all the functions that one asks of a good quality screen. above all it replaces advantageously a screen that was 20 years old, that I could no longer adjust with my Debian 10 OS

    Does the job for cheap

    Hello,
    In general, I like Philips screens: they are sober, do the job, are not too expensive and offer a good image.
    This one is no exception to the rule. I don't play games, but it's perfect for web browsing and movie watching.

    Good Screen

    Very good screen.
    It corresponds perfectly to our rather office use.
    The size is sufficient, the colours are good.
    Very good value for money.
    No installation required. VGA connection provided.
