AOC i2490PXQU/BT

I had almost already sent the monitor back, because the image was initially very faded. What should have been black was gray and the overall contrast was also out of order. Fortunately, after some searching on the internet I came across a "known" problem with Full HD screens; the default settings of most video cards are not OK. See https://www.howtogeek.com/285277/how-to-avoid-washed-out-colors-when-using-hdmi-on-your-pc/ for a solution. After this adjustment, the image quality is fine. Tip to Coolblue: mention this standard as advice with every Full HD monitor!

If you are looking for a nice display for a reasonably low price, for daily use without special requirements, then this is your choice. Didn't have any experience with the brand, but wow did they get me satisfied! Both an HDMI, VGA, USB, 3.5 jack and displayport cable are included (!!!) and mounting is done in no time. Once connected, you will immediately notice that the screen shows rich colors and that the settings are easy to operate. Due to the anti-reflective screen, I am also not bothered by the room and desk lamp when they are on. The design is very beautiful and modern, and the thin edges make your screen look bigger. That it is adjustable in height (height on the product image is maximum), and also tiltable and rotatable, is also great. All in all, a perfect monitor for everyday use!

Initially had some startup problems and thought I'd even have to send the monitor back because I couldn't get it on. Even after contact with the very friendly helpdesk of Coolblue ;-) failed. Found out by accident that in addition to 'plug into wall socket', the on/off (0-I) switch on 'on' also has to be turned on by pressing the small button ('joystick') on the back . Saw that someone else in the reviews had returned the monitor 3x for similar reasons... Very happy with the monitor now. The stand was easy to attach to the screen. It is easy to adjust in height and tilt (in all directions) and can also be put in 'portrait' position (just turn it the right way). Monitor has a small 'command', which I like very much. Looks good and feels solid. I use the monitor as an external monitor with my laptop, so I have 2 screens available (use: working from home and internet, no experience with games). The USB ports on the back of the monitor can be used as a USB hub when you connect the USB-B port of the monitor to your computer with the supplied (!) USB cable. Internal speaker does not give a nice sound, but I use an external speaker. Monitor offers value for money (see it's now €10 cheaper than when I bought it a few weeks ago, but it was worth the money then too)!
