Certified Refurbished LG 22M38D-B 21.5" Full HD Monitor
The Certified Refurbished LG 22M38D-B is a 21.5-inch Full HD (1920×1080) LED monitor built around a TN panel with a 75Hz refresh rate and 5ms response time, making it a capable and energy-efficient display for everyday desktop use. Because it draws just 19W of power, it runs cool and quietly on any desk—which means reduced electricity costs compared to older, bulkier screens. Featuring Flicker Safe technology and Reader Mode for blue light reduction, this monitor is designed for long-hours comfort, therefore making it well-suited for office workers, students, and home users who spend extended time in front of a screen.
Ideal For
This monitor suits a range of everyday computing scenarios:
- Office and remote workers – dual-input VGA and DVI-D ports mean you can connect a desktop and switch sources easily, while Screen Split 2.0 lets you tile up to 14 window layouts for side-by-side document or spreadsheet work
- Students and home users – the 21.5-inch Full HD screen delivers sharp, clear text for reading, research, and video streaming without the premium price of a new display
- Budget-conscious upgraders – replacing a small or ageing monitor with this professionally restored 1080p screen provides a meaningful visual upgrade; our technicians routinely see units like this performing reliably for years after refurbishment
Key Features & Benefits
- Flicker Safe technology: Eliminates screen flicker at all brightness levels, reducing eye fatigue during long work or study sessions
- Reader Mode: Reduces blue light output to minimise eye strain—particularly useful for evening or low-light use
- 75Hz refresh rate: Smoother motion than the standard 60Hz because even office scrolling and video playback appears noticeably more fluid
- Screen Split 2.0: Offers up to 14 multi-window layout options including four Picture-in-Picture modes, which means efficient multitasking without a second monitor
- On-Screen Control software: Adjust brightness and picture modes directly via your mouse, eliminating fumbling with physical buttons
- VESA 75×75mm mount compatible: The stand can be removed and replaced with a monitor arm or wall mount for a flexible desk setup
- Anti-glare coating (3H hardness): Reduces reflections in brightly lit rooms without significantly softening the image
- 19W typical power consumption: One of the more energy-efficient options in its size class, therefore reducing running costs over time
Common Questions
Does the LG 22M38D-B have an HDMI port?
No—this model connects via VGA (D-Sub) and DVI-D only. There is no HDMI or DisplayPort on this unit. If your computer only outputs HDMI, you would need a DVI-to-HDMI adapter, which is widely available and inexpensive.
Is 75Hz noticeably better than a standard 60Hz monitor?
For everyday computing—web browsing, document work, and video streaming—75Hz delivers smoother scrolling and more comfortable motion than 60Hz. It is not a gaming-grade refresh rate, but across hundreds of units tested in our workshop, users consistently notice the improvement in day-to-day use.
How do the narrow viewing angles on a TN panel affect real-world use?
TN panels offer fast response times and solid brightness, but viewing angles are narrower than IPS panels—90° horizontal, 65° vertical. This means colour shifts slightly when viewed from extreme angles. For a single user sitting directly in front of the screen at a desk, this is rarely a practical limitation.

"Excellent" Grade
Devices in this category appear like new, with very minor wear. Expect light or fine scratches on the screen that are shallow enough not to catch on a fingernail. The edge around the glass is virtually flawless, save for possible light scratching around the power port. The back plate may show light/fine scratches, including on the Apple logo, with any discoloration being minimal.
"Good" Grade
These devices are characterized by being fully tested and functional even if they have body scratches, minor paint chips, or a small hairline crack on the screen. Screens are free from dead pixels but may exhibit slight scratching from moderate use.
Refurbished Desktops, Laptops and Monitors
