ViewSonic TD2230 22" Black 2016
The ViewSonic TD2430 touchscreen monitor is generally well-received for its value, display quality, and touch responsiveness, especially for non-gaming tasks like video work. However, users consistently warn about the highly glossy screen that requires an anti-glare film, and some find the IO port covers frustratingly difficult to remove. The built-in speakers are mediocre, and the monitor may have minor HDMI/DP detection quirks, but overall it's praised for its portability and price.

- Responsive touch screen
- Good display quality
- Portable and lightweight
- Built-in speakers work
Cons
- Glossy screen requires anti-glare film
- Difficult to remove I/O port covers
