iiyama Prolite XUB2293HSU-B7 22"

Manufacturer: iiyama

The iiyama Prolite XUB2293HSU-B7 is a 22-inch class standard monitor built around a 21.5″ IPS panel with LED backlighting. Designed for everyday desktop use, it offers wide 178° viewing angles both horizontally and vertically, a matte anti-glare coating, and full ergonomic adjustability including tilt, swivel, height adjustment, and portrait mode rotation — making it a practical choice for varied workspace setups.

Running at a 100Hz refresh rate with a 1ms response time, the display outputs a 1920x1080 resolution at 102 ppi with 16.7 million colors and a 1000:1 contrast ratio at 300 nits brightness. Connectivity includes one HDMI port, one DisplayPort output, a 3.5mm audio jack, and two USB 2.0 ports, while built-in stereo speakers deliver 2x2W of audio output. Power consumption sits at 17W during operation and just 0.5W in standby, and the monitor supports VESA mounting for added flexibility.

Pros
  • The stand supports tilt, swivel, height adjustment, and portrait mode rotation, offering considerable flexibility for different workspace setups
  • VESA mount compatibility allows the display to be used with third-party arms or wall mounts
  • Wide 178-degree viewing angles in both directions ensure consistent image quality from most seated positions
  • Built-in stereo speakers with 2x2W output remove the need for a separate audio solution in basic use cases
  • At just 17W operating power consumption, the monitor uses relatively little energy during everyday use
  • Both HDMI and DisplayPort inputs are available, allowing connection to a range of devices simultaneously
Cons
  • No adaptive synchronization support, which may result in screen tearing during fast-moving content
  • USB connectivity is limited to two USB 2.0 ports, with no USB Type-C or higher-speed USB options
  • The EU energy label rating of E is among the lower efficiency classifications
  • Color calibration is not supported, limiting suitability for color-sensitive work
  • No ambient light sensor means brightness cannot adjust automatically to changing room conditions
Who is this for?

This monitor is well suited to users looking for a reliable everyday desktop display for office work, document editing, or general productivity tasks. The fully adjustable ergonomic stand — with tilt, swivel, height adjustment, and portrait mode — makes it a practical fit for users who spend long hours at a desk and need flexibility in how they position their screen. The inclusion of both HDMI and DisplayPort inputs, two USB ports, a 3.5mm audio jack, and built-in stereo speakers also makes it convenient for straightforward single-monitor setups without the need for additional peripherals. Users who value a matte, anti-glare panel in brightly lit environments will find the screen coating particularly useful.

Who is this NOT for?

This monitor is not well suited to users with demanding visual performance requirements. The absence of adaptive synchronization makes it a poor fit for gaming scenarios where screen tearing and stuttering can noticeably affect the experience. Those working in creative fields that require accurate, calibrated color output will also find the lack of color calibration support a significant limitation. Additionally, the two USB 2.0 ports and the absence of USB Type-C or higher-speed USB connections make it inadequate for users who rely on fast data transfer or need to connect modern peripherals through their display.
