 Hello everyone, this is Ahmed Dan of AhmedDan.com. Today I'll have another episode of unboxing and review video, and I'll be reviewing the HP 22FW monitor. So you're looking at it right now, and this is a 21.5 FHD IPS gaming monitor. This is 75Hz refresh rate, and 1920 by 1080, so this is full HD. And in terms of contrast ratio, this is 1000x21, and it has full 178 degree vertical and horizontal ultra-wide viewing, and this is also energy star qualified monitor. So this was purchased with my own money. This is not a paid or affiliated review. All my reviews are non-affiliated, unbiased, and honest. So the weight of this product is 5.14 pound, and the panel is IPS, and there should be a 6.2 feet cable, or power cable included. So let's open this up, and then we'll take a look at the monitor, and also look at the quality of the monitor, how good or bad quality the picture is once I set it up to my workstation. So let's start opening up the monitor. Okay, so I'll remove these flaps, which are right here, and let's take this out. Okay, so I have a feeling that the whole monitor should just slide out of the box, and yes, so that's what's happening here. Okay, so the box is empty, and it looks like actually I flipped it, so it should be the reverse way, but I can just, you know, flip it back. So it looks like here we have the power cable, and then here's the power adapter, and then they also attached an HDMI cable, and we have some other accessories right here, so let's push over a little bit, and I'll open this up. Okay, so this looks like actually it's going to be the stand of the monitor, so the monitor is going to be on it, so I'll just set it aside, and then we have something else here, so let's open this up, and this actually looks like the other part of the stand which do hold the monitor, so I'll just put it here, and then we have a small manual, our brochure, so I'll take this out, and you can see that, you know, we have the HP Worldwide Warranty Card, and then we have a manual. Okay, so I'll just set this aside here, and now we'll just, you know, take out the monitor. Okay, so there's a quick setup guide, our instructions right here, and I'll just remove this for now, and we have our monitor right here, so I'll just take it out. Okay, so you're looking at the monitor without the stand and everything, and this is very lightweight, and it looks really slim, so for example, if you take a look at it, you can see that, you know, this is really, really slim, and it's very good looking. So what I'll do, let me install on top of the stand, and then I'll show you the complete video of the monitor. Just a quick note about setting it up, so it's a very simple and easy to setup, all you have to do, you have to just slide this section in here, so for example, if you do that, and then you have to just tighten the screw right here, you don't actually need a screwdriver or anything, you can do everything, you know, by hand, and then once you have this, then you have to just, you know, slide the monitor in the stand or holder, so it's a very, really easy and simple setup. Okay, so the setup is finished, that's really a simple to setup, and one good thing about the stand is that it's not cheap plastic, it's made of metal, most likely aluminum, and I don't think you can tilt this on the side or top or, you know, up or down, so it doesn't look like that way, but you know, if I find out and see that it's tiltable, then I'll let you know. Hello, Vuan, this is Amit Don, and this is the final session of the HP 22FW monitor review, so I have two monitors side by side, this is my laptop monitor, which is a glossy monitor, and the HP monitor is actually matte monitor because it reduces glare and light reflection, so if you're looking at the color production of on the laptop monitor, then definitely you're gonna like it more because it has vivid and super color, you can tell by just looking at it that, you know, the color production and the color contrast and everything is much better than the HP monitor because this is a much better screen due to the fact that this is more expensive laptop and this is matte, sorry, glossy laptop, so the main difference between laptop glossy and matte is that, you know, matte doesn't have the color, the coating to reduce the glare or light reflection, so it gives you vivid and super color, but if you're looking at on matte monitor, which is the speed, then it's going to reduce the color, vivid color a little bit, but it will reduce the reflection or glare as well, so the matte monitor supposed to be better on eyes, that's what's told, but you know, I'm not actually sure which one is what, so let me show you a video clip and you can also like, you know, compare the color on the video clip, so right now you're still looking at the laptop monitor, you see that it's kind of difficult to see because of the light reflection, so now we are slowly moving to the HP monitor and you see the difference because it's going to give you less reflection and less glare, so right here, here, this is the HP monitor and you can see that it has much lesser reflection than this, but at the same time that makes the, you know, vivid and vibrant color lesser too. Okay, so I'm going to just put down the laptop here, in terms of performance, I like the monitor because of the price, this is really, you know, a good price monitor and what you're paying and what you're getting, you cannot go wrong and from time to time it goes on sale, so if you can pick it up on sale, that's even better, but some of the things I do not like about this monitor, which I'm going to show you right now, so the first thing, the monitor, you will not be able to lift it up or pull it up, so the height you're looking at, this is fixed, so for example, if you just, you know, lift it up, it doesn't work because it doesn't have that functionality and you cannot tilt it like this way, so if you try to tilt it this way, it doesn't work. The only way you can tilt it, push the monitor backward and forward this way, for example, it goes a little bit this way and it comes forward a little bit this way, so that's all you can do in terms of maneuvering the height and adjustments, so in terms of height adjustments and maneuvering, you have a very limited option, you don't have actually much option, so you're gonna have to just keep it this way and I don't have any problem with that because somehow it perfectly fits my desk and my height requirement which I was looking at, but for some it may not be an option, so if you're looking for something that you need to, you know, adjust the height or tilt it this way, then this is not for you and then the other problem I have with this monitor, which I'm going to pull down the camera a little bit, okay, so if you are looking at the lower right section right here, you're not gonna see any buttons because somehow they're hiding the buttons underneath this panel and which is a very bad thing because you cannot really tell which button is for what, so you're gonna have to just kind of guess when you're pressing that button, so right now I can tell that turn on or turn off button is going to be right here because of the light, but if I didn't have this, then I had to just guess and just press the button here to turn it off or to turn it on, so basically and then I can feel it, one, two, three, four, so there are four other buttons right here, but there's no way for you to tell which button is what, so you can have to just kind of guess and you can see that these options are coming up here, but I don't like it that way because I have to just keep guessing what I'm pressing or which button to press for what, so that's something I don't like about this monitor, but except that everything else is very cool. The back of the monitor, which I showed you before when I was doing the unboxing is really cool, it's white, but it's just hidden behind, I don't get to see that, so that doesn't matter, but in terms of looks and everything, this is really a very nice looking monitor, it doesn't look cheap, it wouldn't look the way, it doesn't look how much you paid, it looks like a very expensive monitor, but it isn't and it works, it does the job. Some of the shortcoming features which I just mentioned you before, that's what you have to keep this in mind when you were purchasing this monitor. So this is the non-affiliated review of the HP 22FW monitor, forget about subscribing to this channel, forget about liking this video, there'll be more videos coming up, so I'll see you shortly, thank you.
