Manufacturer description

The Sceptre E225W-19203S is a 22-inch LED monitor for a home office, a dorm desk, or a second screen next to your main display. It runs a Full HD 1920x1080 resolution at refresh rates up to 75Hz. That is 15Hz above a standard 60Hz panel, so scrolling, cursor movement and casual games look a little smoother. It has three video inputs: two HDMI ports and one VGA port. You can keep a desktop PC and a game console connected over HDMI and still use VGA for an older laptop or legacy PC without buying an adapter. Built-in speakers handle system sounds and video calls without extra desk clutter…
