21.5" ViewSonic VG2208A
21.5" ViewSonic VG2208A
The ViewSonic VG2208A monitor with its 21.5" IPS panel delivers a resolution of 1920 × 1080. This Full HD monitor is ideal for everyday work in the office or at home. Image fluidity is determined by the 100Hz refresh rate, which, along with Adaptive-Sync technology, prevents unpleasant screen tearing during fast-paced scenes. The monitor, with its 16:9 aspect ratio, offers stable LED backlighting and an anti-glare surface with a 3H hardness rating. A fast 5ms (GtG) response time limits unwanted motion blur. The device consumes just 14W of electricity during normal operation.

Wide viewing angles with the SuperClear IPS panel
SuperClear IPS technology delivers consistent colours from any viewing angle. The monitor offers wide 178-degree viewing angles, both horizontally and vertically. Colour reproduction remains accurate even when viewing from the side, making group work easier. The IPS panel technology ensures brightness and colour tones are maintained across the entire screen. Image rendering is constant, with no colour shift even when tilted.
Sharp Full HD resolution
The 1920 × 1080 resolution creates a detailed display on the 16:9 aspect ratio screen. The pixel density contributes to sharp rendering of text and all graphical elements. Working with documents and watching multimedia offers a high level of detail. The display works with a pixel size of 0.249mm horizontally and 0.241mm vertically. Users get plenty of space to arrange open application windows without constantly having to scroll.
Smooth visuals with a high refresh rate
The 100Hz refresh rate brings smooth transitions without screen tearing. Adaptive-Sync technology synchronises the monitor's frequency with your computer's graphics card. This prevents unwanted stuttering during fast-paced scenes. The higher refresh rate, compared to the standard 60Hz, reduces eye strain during long periods of working with text. Smooth mouse cursor movement and seamless web page scrolling increase comfort during everyday tasks.
Faithful colour reproduction
The sRGB colour coverage is 104%, and the 8-bit colour depth with 6-bit + FRC technology renders 16.7 million colours. The static contrast ratio is 1000:1 with a brightness of 250cd/m². The anti-glare display surface with a 3H hardness rating effectively reduces reflections from ambient light. Users can rely on consistent colour performance in various lighting conditions. The display is suitable for photo editing and watching videos with natural shade representation.
Height adjustment for healthy sitting
The ergonomic stand offers height adjustment within a 100mm range. Setting the correct height prevents neck fatigue during long hours at the computer. The user can easily adjust the screen's position to suit their body and the height of their desk. The correct eye position relative to the top edge of the monitor helps maintain healthy posture. This can prevent back pain and increase overall comfort throughout the workday.
Flexible pivot
The pivot function rotates the screen 90 degrees into a portrait orientation for easier reading of long texts. The design also supports a 340-degree swivel and a tilt range from -3.5 to 23 degrees. These options make it easier to present information to colleagues in the office. The monitor can be turned to the exact position needed and adapted to the lighting conditions in the room. Easy manipulation of the stand requires no force or tools.
Easy wall installation thanks to the VESA standard
The rear panel features a VESA 100 × 100mm standard mounting interface. The screen can be easily attached to a wall or an adjustable arm. This frees up valuable desk space and simplifies cable management. This mounting method is ideal for users who require a clean work environment without obstructive stands. Installation is quick, and the standardised screw spacing matches most commonly available brackets.
Gentle on your eyes
Flicker-Free technology eliminates screen flicker at all brightness levels. An integrated software blue light filter protects your eyes from excessive fatigue when working in the evening. Viewing the display is comfortable even during long shifts. Eye ProTech technologies help reduce eye strain and prevent burning sensations. This lets users work more productively without feeling visually exhausted.
Built-in stereo speakers for sound
A pair of integrated stereo speakers with 2 × 2W of power provides basic audio. Users do not need to connect external audio devices to their computer, saving space on the desk. The audio output is sufficient for normal video calls, listening to system notifications, or watching instructional videos. The integrated solution reduces the amount of cabling required and makes it easier to keep the workspace tidy.
Sustainable operation
This monitor meets the strict EnergyStar, EPEAT Silver, and TCO environmental standards. Energy Class E signifies a typical power consumption of just 14W during normal operation. In standby mode, consumption drops to a mere 0.3W. This low power consumption saves on running costs and reduces environmental impact. The device is designed with long-term sustainability and efficient resource management in mind.
Connectivity
The connectivity options include modern digital inputs for a stable, high-resolution image transmission. The integrated USB hub makes it easy to connect peripherals directly to the screen without the hassle of plugging them into a computer under the desk. The package includes an HDMI cable, a USB-A cable, and a power cable to get the entire system up and running immediately. The following ports are available for connecting external devices:
- 1× DisplayPort 1.2
- 1× HDMI 1.4
- 1× USB-B 3.2
- 2× USB-A 3.2
- 1× 3.5mm audio out jack

Colour gamut
Determines how accurately the monitor can display colours. sRGB is ideal for web, films or games. DCI-P3/Adobe RGB is appreciated by graphic designers or professionals. The higher the value, the better the monitor displays colours.
Maximum brightness
The value given in nits or cd/m² determines the brightness of the monitor. A brightness of over 400 nits is key for HDR content and readability in sunlight, while standard office monitors are fine with values above 250.
Refresh rate and response time
The refresh rate (Hz) determines the number of frames displayed per second, so the higher the value, the smoother the picture and the less eye strain. A lower response time (ms) eliminates motion blur. 144Hz+ is ideal for gaming, while values around 75Hz are suitable for office monitors.Specifications
