Monitors

When shopping for a new Desktop Monitor, there are certain basic things that you need to consider.

The first thing to decide is the size of your Monitor. You can get Monitors as small as 15-inches and as humongous as 35-inches. Computer Monitors up to 25-inches are sufficient for basic usage. If you are a gamer or professional editor, you should go with a Monitor screen size bigger than 25-inches.

Then we have the resolution, which refers to the number of horizontal pixels and vertical pixels on the screen. The higher the resolution, the sharper the display. The most common resolution is 1920x1080, also known as 1080p or Full HD. Quad-HD and 4K Monitors with 2560x1440 and 3840x2160 resolution respectively are gaining popularity too.

The next thing to lock is the shape of your Screen Monitor. A flat-panel Monitor is the popular choice of many while gamers and artists prefer a curved panel. If you are a passionate gamer or work with videos, opt for a Monitor with a response rate of 120Hz or more.

Yet another factor to consider is the Monitor's display type - LCD, LED, QLED or IPS. Each display type offers a different viewing experience. Thus, the best display type for you depends on your needs. You can refer to our Monitor Buying Guide to know more about these display types and other features available in a Computer Monitor.
