AOC 22B2H/EU 21.5" Full HD Frameless VA Monitor - 75Hz, 6.5ms GtG, Black
The AOC 22B2H/EU is a 21.5-inch Full HD monitor on a VA panel, with a three-sided frameless design, a 3000:1 static contrast ratio and 98% sRGB coverage. It runs at 75 Hz over HDMI, takes HDMI or VGA, and adds AOC's Flicker-Free backlight and LowBlue Light mode. At 2.1 kg it is one of the lighter 22-inch monitors on the market, and it mounts on VESA 100 x 100.
Why this product
21.5-inch Full HD VA panel
1920 x 1080 on a VA panel with 178-degree viewing angles in both directions and 16.7 million colours.
3000:1 static contrast
VA contrast, roughly three times what a typical IPS panel in this bracket manages, so blacks look black rather than grey.
98% sRGB coverage
98% sRGB, 77% Adobe RGB and 73% NTSC - unusually good colour coverage for an entry-level office monitor.
Three-sided frameless design
Thin bezels on three sides, which makes a difference if you are running two or three of these side by side.
Flicker-Free and LowBlue Light
A DC backlight with no PWM flicker, plus AOC's LowBlue Light mode for long working days.
Light and VESA-mountable
2.1 kg with a VESA 100 x 100 mm pattern, so it sits easily on an arm or a multi-monitor bracket.

Best for
- Office and home-office desks, especially multi-monitor setups where the thin bezels help.
- Long working days, thanks to the Flicker-Free backlight and LowBlue Light mode.
- Anyone who wants decent colour coverage at the entry level - 98% sRGB is better than this price usually buys.
- Monitor arms and wall brackets, at 2.1 kg with VESA 100 x 100.
Trade-offs
- Gaming: 75 Hz with a 6.5 ms grey-to-grey response and no stated adaptive sync.
- Bright rooms: 200 cd/m2 is modest; this is a monitor for normal indoor lighting.
- Anyone who needs sound from the monitor: there are no built-in speakers, only a headphone output.
- DisplayPort or USB-C setups: the inputs are HDMI 1.4 and VGA only.
- Ergonomic adjustment: tilt is all the stand offers.
The AOC 22B2H/EU is a 21.5-inch Full HD monitor built on a VA panel, with a three-sided frameless design that makes it well suited to sitting two or three across a desk. The VA panel gives a 3000:1 static contrast ratio and 178-degree viewing angles in both directions, and colour coverage is better than the price would suggest at 98% sRGB, 77% Adobe RGB and 73% NTSC.
It runs at 75 Hz over HDMI, with a 60 Hz maximum over the VGA input. AOC quotes the response time as 6.5 ms grey-to-grey. You will see 4 ms quoted on some retail listings for this model; that figure does not appear anywhere in AOC's own documentation, so we have published AOC's.
Inputs are one HDMI 1.4 and one VGA, with a 3.5 mm headphone output. There is no DisplayPort, no USB and no built-in speakers - the headphone jack passes audio through from HDMI. AOC does not state adaptive sync support for this model, so we are not claiming FreeSync.
The backlight is Flicker-Free, meaning it dims by DC rather than PWM, and AOC's LowBlue Light mode is included. Power comes from an external 19 V adapter (AOC ADPC1925EX), drawing 18.0 W in use and 0.3 W on standby, in EU energy class E.
The stand tilts from -5 to +21.5 degrees and offers no height adjustment, swivel or pivot, but the chassis carries a VESA 100 x 100 mm pattern. At 2.1 kg it is light enough for almost any monitor arm. Three-year warranty.
A note on cables: AOC's own documentation lists a VGA cable and power cable in the box and states that not all signal cables are supplied in every region. If you need a specific cable, please ask us before ordering.
