Its ergonomic stand offers 13cm height adjustment with pivot and swivel, making this screen suitable for a wide range of applications and environments where workplace flexibility and ergonomics are key factors.

BLUE LIGHT REDUCER
As we all know looking at a monitor screen for several hours per day, especially form a closer distance, causes eye fatigue. This effect is much stronger with computer screens than with TV equipment. One of the factors responsible for this phenomenon is the blue light emitted by the screen. Therefore reducing the amount of blue light ultimately allows our eyes to feel less tired while working long hours with a computer screen. We achieved it by adjusting the monitor's brightness and color temperature through a new feature called “Blue light reduction” easily accessible through the monitor’s OSD menu.
OVERDRIVE ON / OFF
When very fast graphics are displayed your monitor can sometimes get blurry. Turning on the OverDrive feature will eliminate that.

That's simply not true and it completely dependant on the use case. At this price you cannot get low response IPS monitors, on the cheaper scale you also have light bleed as a standard issue. Spend 400+ and sure IPS is the weapon of choice.
There's a reason Benq/iiyama and Acer use good quality TN for their gaming ranges, the response times are simply better, at the cost of some colour reproduction.
Ignore the advertised response times (GTG) as they're not real world, research measures response times (usually 15ms+) and importantly if you're gaming, input lag!
Research is king, so whilst Weiran made a valid point if you're in the graphics design business, gaming is somewhat different.
I have a iiyama GB2488HSU-B2 24" 144hz "1ms" freesync monitor, which is a TN, primarily used for gaming, but it's absolutely fine when using a decent .icc file with proper calibration.
If you do plan on gaming, get a freesync/gsync monitor, it's totally worth the outlay, wave goodbye to tearing!

Got this for £229 from CCL a few weeks ago. Cracking screen, great resolution, adjustable height, swivel, and tilt stand, and the built in speakers are not too ropey.

yes
I have this monitor, only bad thing is the low freesync range (50-70)

think you can do some tweaks to enable frame doubling

This would be alright for gaming?. I know it's not 144hz before anyone says anything.
Unless someone has a decent link for a good gaming monitor with 144 sub 250.

Course it'd be alright for gaming. Such a marketing hype built up in the industry that every panel needs to be 1593483Hz or it'll suck at gaming. Nonsense.
I've used a Crossover Blacktune from Korea since they were available. Has 8ms response time and is IPS, yet I still absolutely kick ass in Battlefield.
The industry make out a higher refresh monitor is suddenly going to make you F4tal1ty or something.

Looks like a good price, I have just ordered a Dell Ultrasharp UP2516D 25-Inch QHD for the same price and now am wondering which wod be better.

The Dell is an IPS panel which makes it many times better than this budget TN.

"Many times" is a touch hyperbolic. I've had this monitor for 3-4 months now, and moved to it from an IPS. The colour reproduction, contrast etc on this screen is marginally worse, but only marginally. It's still perfectly suitable for photo and art work and it's great for gaming too
