It has a slightly low response time but for the budget price it is acceptable.

What is a Response Time for Monitor and how does it Impact the Gaming Performance of the Monitor ? – Simply put  – Response time is the amount of time a pixel in a display takes to change. It is measured in Milliseconds(ms). Lower numbers mean faster transitions and therefore fewer visible image artifacts. Older monitors with long response times would create Display motion blur around moving objects, making them unacceptable for rapidly moving images. 16ms is a low response time but in this budget this is acceptable.

The viewing Angle for the monitor is 90 degree which is good for watching the monitor even if you are not directly placed in front of the monitor, it is better to have higher viewing angle in monitors to enable better visibility of screen. (In display technology parlance, viewing angle is the maximum angle at which a display can be viewed with acceptable visual performance).

The pixel pitch is the distance from the center of an LED cluster (or pixel) to the center of the next LED cluster/pixel measured in millimeters which is also ok for the monitor.

It has low power consumption 7 W (Operational), 0.5 W (Standby) which is great for your electricity bill.
