What type of backlight is this?

I bought a decent enough 24" IPS display for my father like 5 years ago for around EUR 120, smaller displays such as yours were of course cheaper. Your model is still sold and many good displays can be bought for the same price or even less.
Also I have good understanding what is decent as I use wide gamut 30" LCD monitors with GB LED backlight. Previously had 30" with wide gamut CCFL.
EDIT: it was AH-IPS PHILIPS 244E5QSD/00 bought in 2014 for EUR 125.98. Not even cheaper E-IPS.

Efficiency wise, a CCFL is not as good a modern fluorescent lamp with a high efficiency electronic ballast.

I don’t think that CCFL has been superior to LED backlights for a long time. And that’s not even considering LCDs with RGB LED backlighting, which allow for backlight spectra that closely match the filters on the subpixels.

Hmm, I'm not convinced. I have an LED backlit monitor at home, I can't remember the brand, but it's around 3 years old and the colour rendering is poor, compared to lots of the older CCFL monitors I've used in the past. I do regret buying it and only did so because it seemed like a good price i.e. cheap. The problem is the red is very poor.

So it’s just a super cheap display.
Today’s best LED-backlit LCDs have better color rendition than any CCFL-backlit LCD ever had.

If it really was a TN panel then all explanation you need is here and backlighting is a secondary concern ;)
