This is one of the few 22'' to still offer a resolution of 1680 x 1050 pixels. That isn't enough to show as much information as a Full HD display, but text is shown a little larger, which can be a bonus if your eyes get tired quickly. With a height-adjustable, rotating stand, VGA and DVI inputs, a USB hub and a 2 x 1.5 W speakers, the 225B2C is about average compared to the monitors we've tested. If the lack of a HDMI input might seem surprising, don't forget that this screen is mainly designed for office work, where a HDMI port is by no means essential. With a response time in the spec of 5 ms, we weren't really expecting to find an incredibly fast screen. Our test results and own impressions confirmed that that the 225B2C can't produce fluid results with fast-moving objects on screen, which rules out good performance with games. Just like its hardware options and resolution, the responsiveness is just what we'd expect from a monitor designed for office work and web browsing. That's a shame, because the input lag is low enough to not cause any noticeable pause in the action when you're playing a multiplayer game. With its factory settings, the 225B2C only has a minimal distinction between the colours requested by the graphics card and those actually shown.
