Monitors MSI Pro MP223 E2 monitor (or recommended alternatives)

Pimpom

Forerunner
I'm thinking of building a desktop for my wife from old parts that I've accumulated over the years.. I have everything except the monitor.

She doesn't need a fancy rig - just something for browsing, youtube, playing music, typing, and the like. From a first quick search, I find that the MSI Pro MP223 E2 is one of the cheapest branded models in the 22-inch FHD class. VA panel (which I personally prefer over IPS), 1mS, 100Hz. Online price is around 5K, with variations between sites.

Does anyone know about this model? Is there anything terrible about it? Do you have any other models you recommend?

MSI Pro MP225 IPS Rs.4960/- @ Computech, shop Thane (Mumbai) is MSI Authorised Partner. Though I have no personal experience with this store, few reditt users posted it as good trusted shop to buy.

I'm also looking to buy same but unable to decide as some past bad expirience of TE users with MSI India for Warranty
 
Thanks for the reply. Computech is one of the places I looked at. Their current price is 4699 + 90 shipping = 4789/-

What about minor brands like MarQ, Geonix, Zebronics, etc.? I don't intend to buy any of these brands but they're cheap and it will be good to know what they are like

My favorite was Samsung Monitor in CRT Days but than lost trust as 2 Samsung keyboards failed back to back just after completing 365 days (12 month), exact next day after warranty over and Samsung refuse to repair/replace.

Then went with Dell for LED Monitors, 1st last for 5 yrs and 2nd last for 8.5 yrs, but for BOTH, the first piece I received was with some fault & too much back-light bleeding and BOTH time for each DELL LED Monitor I went with lot of headache/hassle (verbal fight with call center/manager etc. etc.) and every time after lot lot hassle was able to get new monitor with lot of tantrum throw by Dell India Team... this all frustrated me and this time decided NOT to go with Samsung & Dell.

At present searching/reading/looking following brands .... MSI, Acer, ViewSonic, AOC, Lenovo & LG not at all considering cheap MarQ, Geonix, Zebronics, etc.
