20 best computer monitors

One of the best models in the budget segment with the difficult-to-pronounce name MultiSync. Its main advantage is colors that are pleasant to the eyes and do not cause tension. Well, an attractive appearance is due to a thin frame with a width of 6 mm. You can control the monitor using the touch buttons.

Pleased with mobility. The design of the screen allows you to adjust it in height, tilt and angle, since the leg itself is rotating. The package includes a bracket for mounting the vertical part of the stand. Additionally, there is a Display-port, which is very convenient to use. The only flaw is that the monitor is designed to operate at a temperature of 5-35 degrees, which makes it problematic to use it in southern latitudes, where in summer the temperature reaches 40-45 degrees.

The prettiest monitor in this category in terms of design. Made without frames, so it looks ultra-modern and allows you to collect configurations from multiple displays. Otherwise, everything is standard for the segment: 22-inch IPS-matrix, FullHD resolution, refresh rate up to 75 Hz and a response of 5 ms. A simple game without dynamic graphics (for example, strategy) looks perfect on such a screen, but for shooters, the model is not at all ideal.

Among other things, we note the ability to connect to a computer via HDMI or DisplayPort, as well as the presence of a headphone jack. At the same time, both types of video cables are usually included in the package, which can be considered a nice bonus. As for customer reviews, they complain about minor assembly flaws, an inconvenient location for the audio output, and the lack of a VESA mount for wall mounting.

Philips regularly delights its fans with technical innovations or lovingly keeps old models alive. Was no exception and 223V7QHAB. The IPS-matrix produces pure black color, which is why it is convenient to work with the monitor when processing photos. Illumination is not observed. High pixel density (102 PPI) has a positive effect on image quality. Mechanical control buttons will help you adjust the screen in a way that suits you. They protrude strongly from the body and are easy to find by touch. The built-in power supply provides the device with energy at a voltage of 13 W in active mode and 0.5 W in idle mode.

Of the shortcomings, it is difficult to adjust the brightness when SmartImage is turned off.The white balance has a slight green tint, which requires you to use the Windows calibration tools. Built-in speakers produce mediocre sound, but fully justify their price. There are 2 connection ports - HDMI and VGA. It would seem that you can rejoice, but no. An HDMI cable will need to be purchased separately.

The popular V226HQLb is a top seller for a number of reasons. This is the high cost of new models and the difficult financial situation in the country. Therefore, buyers note a fairly low price of the model with good color reproduction. By the way, the viewing angles here are also quite good and amount to 170 degrees horizontally and 160 vertically. The maximum refresh rate is 75Hz, which is slightly above the standard budget parameters.

There are a couple of other interesting things worth mentioning. The monitor has an anti-reflective coating, which is very good for working in brightly lit rooms. Unfortunately, the model has inherited the typical sores of its segment. First of all, this is a VGA input, which determines the low price of the product and makes you think about purchasing an HDMI adapter. An unpleasant surprise can be a bulky and uncomfortable stand, which negatively affects the portability of the monitor.

In first place, we put the GW2283 from Benq. The monitor will please its owner with a high-quality assembly, many modes of use and the correct display of colors. There is no HDMI in the kit, you will have to buy more, and there are two of them here, for a minute. VGA, frankly, can't cope and in some applications gives out flickering, which is why you have to set a limit of 60 Hz. The IPS matrix does not cause any special claims in terms of quality, but is it not the best option either? which at the same time allows you to save money and at the same time not lose a good image.

One of the disadvantages is the uneven backlighting, due to which there is a slight light in the lower left corner and a crystalline effect occurs. Particularly picky buyers in their reviews note not quite high-quality joints on the case and the crunch of the monitor when moving, as well as a not very convenient screen settings profile. All in all, it's a great value for the money, with some minor flaws that most users won't notice.

Not too expensive Korean monitor based on a VA matrix, which can be considered universal for both gaming and work. The response here is 4 ms, the resolution is 1920x1080 with a diagonal of 23.5 inches. At the same time, the display is curved with a radius of curvature of 1800R, which will allow you to almost perfectly immerse yourself in the world of cinema or games. Back in Samsung, they worked on improving the display of black shades, increased the uniformity of the backlight and added a special game mode for automatically correcting color settings and image contrast.

If you look at the reviews, then the model has very high ratings on different sites. It is praised for its clarity and richness of the image, attractive design, user-friendly settings system and overall high level of user experience. At the same time, there are periodic complaints about dead pixels, the fragility of the stand, plus some buyers swear at the graininess of the picture.

We can say that we have a professional entry-level gaming model. The diagonal is 23.6 inches, a TN matrix adapted for games with a resolution of 1920x1080 pixels and a refresh rate of 144 Hz is used. The response is 1ms, which is just perfect for dynamic shooters. We also highlight the black stabilization option, which will allow you to quickly identify enemy movements in the dark.

On the other hand, we must not forget that this is a model for games, so when scrolling text in the browser, it may be partially blurred, especially when the fast image refresh mode is selected. Trying to improve image quality, LG had to save on other things. In particular, I had to use an external power supply, frame the display with obvious frames, abandon the swivel stand and reduce the factory warranty to 2 years.

The best "hard worker" for those who need a monitor for all occasions, but the budget is very limited. The classic IPS matrix with a diagonal of 24 inches will allow you to comfortably immerse yourself in the world of computer games, and easily focus on typing text or working with simple graphics. Of course, all this with a discount on the price of the monitor. You should not expect perfect pictures from FullHD resolution at a pixel density of 93 ppi. At the same time, there is access to VGA and HDMI connectors, there is a completely modern design, plus high energy efficiency pleases, since the consumption does not exceed 26 watts.

Acer monitors are generally very reliable and the Acer SA240YAbi keeps the bar high in this regard, which is confirmed by customer reviews. There were no serious highlights at the edges and corners, the color reproduction is at the level, there are all the main options for protecting eyesight, and the frames are quite thin.

High-end monitor from a well-known American brand. This 24-inch model is focused on comfortable work in the office or remote study at home.For this, an IPS-matrix with a resolution of 1920x1080 pixels, three options for video inputs, all types of pan and tilt adjustment, a built-in webcam, acoustics and a 4-port USB hub are offered. The only thing that is noticeably lacking is a wider implementation of eye protection options - in this model they are implemented to the very minimum. Partial compensation can be considered a three-year official factory warranty.

Judging by the reviews, buyers are satisfied and praise the DELL P2418HZm monitor for picture quality, ease of setup, and a wide range of stand adjustment in all directions. Of the complaints, it is worth highlighting the quiet operation of the built-in speakers, the mediocre quality of the webcam and possible “glitches” of the touch buttons.

24" curved VA gaming monitor. The model is considered the best in its price segment: for up to 25,000 rubles, the user receives a functional monitor that is ideal for gaming. The refresh rate is already 165 Hz, the viewing angles are huge and correspond to the level of the IPS matrix: 178 degrees vertically and horizontally, the backlight is flicker-free, there is a headphone output.

The reviews write that the matrix pleases with natural color reproduction, a margin of brightness and a contrasting picture. There is a VESA mount. Thin bezels combined with a curved shape look stylish and a bit futuristic. The manufacturer has added wide image settings, so that any user can choose the perfect picture for themselves. Eyes do not get tired even after 6-8 hours of work on this monitor. The main drawback is the tight buttons.

Demanded monitor model from the TUF Gaming line. An important detail is the non-standard diagonal of the flat screen, which is 28 inches. At the same time, the resolution of the IPS-matrix is ​​​​3840x2160 pixels (4K), and the response does not exceed 5 ms. Not the best indicator for games, considering also the refresh rate of 60 Hz, but it is quite enough, especially for strategies, MMORPGs and similar projects. Among other things, we highlight the presence of HDR10 support, the entire range of stand adjustment options and a pair of built-in speakers, however, only 2 watts each.

Judging by the reviews, this monitor has a very high color quality, uniform backlighting, a good study of presets for quickly switching display modes, an acceptable, but not ideal pixel density, and fairly wide functionality. Among the negatives are the excessive brightness of the white color, the massiveness of the stand.

Samsung knows how to make good monitors. The model, which took the 4th place in the rating, is distinguished, first of all, by a curved matrix. It looks unusual, and when working provides greater comfort due to a smaller distance from the eyes to the edges of the screen than in flat devices. With a diagonal of 27 inches, this is quite useful. The only, but very noticeable drawback is the resolution. Still, FullHD is not enough for such a monitor size. But the quality is excellent.8-bit TFT *VA matrix provides high brightness and contrast ratio (3000:1 vs. 1000:1 for most competitors).

The response is 4 ms - if you wish, you can play. In addition, there is Free sync. Working with graphics will appreciate 100% coverage of the sRGB color space. The benefits don't end there. You can also praise the Samsung monitor for a sufficient number of video inputs - there are HDMI and VGA. There is also a headphone output and a VESA mount. Users refer only to an unregulated stand as obvious disadvantages.

If you are looking for a good 27-inch monitor with 3840x2160 resolution support, then this model will definitely not disappoint you. It differs from most competitors in the price range by uniform backlighting, stylish design, a strong leg and the presence of support for the picture-in-picture option. IPS matrix demonstrates a bright saturated picture with the correct color reproduction. Most users in the reviews agree that the monitor does not need serious image adjustments already at the first turn on.

Response time 5 m/s. The backlight is free from flickering effect. The main drawback of this modern monitor is that the refresh rate is not higher than 60 Hz. But instead of buttons, there is a convenient joystick, the black color really looks like black, and the LED that works as a power indicator is barely noticeable and does not hurt the eyes. The eyes do not get tired even after several hours of continuous sitting at the PC, if you delve into the settings and adjust the picture for yourself.

Second place in the ranking of the best - BenQ GW2780, an excellent monitor for the money. The display resolution of 1920x1080 pixels, combined with the classic AH-IPS matrix, gives an excellent picture that will be highly appreciated by all users. And fans of simple computer games will not stand aside - the claimed response time of the monitor is only 5 ms. Among the nice features of the monitor, we note the Smart Reminder technology, which will not let your eyes work without rest (the device will remind you that it's time for your eyes to rest).

Advanced users will definitely appreciate the well-thought-out W-LED backlight control system, the most convenient stand and the presence of an HDMI cable in the package. In their positive reviews, users point to an inconspicuous pixel, no screen flicker, dim LED, cool design and the best price for its characteristics. BenQ GW2780 is one of the best monitors in terms of price, quality and functionality.

29" widescreen flat panel monitor with 2560x1080 resolution. It has 99% sRGB color gamut, but the matrix color depth is only 6 bits (+ FRC), i.e. for working with graphics at a professional level, the model is rather weak, but it will allow you to enjoy a completely high-quality picture when watching a movie or starting games. The matrix here is IPS, complemented by HDR10 support and Mega DCR dynamic contrast ratio.

The design is frameless, which with such dimensions creates the effect of a “floating” screen. For connection with a computer, HDMI and DisplayPort inputs are provided, there is a headphone jack, as well as a pair of built-in 7W speakers.It is noteworthy, but with impressive functionality, the model consumes no more than 28 watts of energy. A VESA mount is also available, so you can mount the monitor on the wall, getting rid of the stand, which still only provides tilt adjustment.

34" curved gaming monitor. The features are impressive. From the upgraded IPS-matrix, it was possible to squeeze out up to 1 ms of response, a resolution of 3440x1440 pixels, a refresh rate of 160 Hz and a pixel density of 109 ppi. The model supports G-Sync Compatible and FreeSync 2, DisplayHDR 400 and HDR10 are also available, plus 92% Adobe RGB color gamut. The 34GN850-B connects to a computer via HDMI 2.0 or DisplayPort 1.4, there is also a USB hub and a headphone output.

For avid gamers, LG has prepared a number of special game modes and options: Dynamic Action Sync, black tint stabilization, Crosshair for aiming, etc. In the reviews, the monitor is praised for the response speed of the matrix, image saturation, durability and convenience of the stand. Among the negatives, the terrible elaboration of the setup menu and the poor implementation of the VESA mount stand out.

Think 21:9 monitors are too wide - look at this monster. The aspect ratio here is 32:9! But don't be scared, because Samsung, in fact, just combined two 27-inch monitors with the usual aspect ratio in one device. For the same reason, do not be afraid of the diagonal numbers - 49 inches. Resolution 3840x1080 - again, two FullHD placed side by side. The pixel density is low by today's standards, but the overall image quality is hard to fault. Matrix curved SVA shows excellent brightness numbers (350 cd/m²) and contrast ratio (3000:1). Declared support HDR, but tests show minimal effect from turning it on. The vertical scan frequency reaches 144 Hz - an excellent indicator. Available AMD free sync 2.

Four video inputs: 2x HDMI 2.0 Display Port 1.4 miniDP 1.4. Such an amount will come in handy given the presence of technology picture by Picture(PbP). It allows you to display images from several sources on one screen at once. For example, from a laptop and a game console, or from two computers. The disadvantages include only the high cost - after all, two 27 "monitors with similar characteristics will cost much less.

Monitor for games of a flat form, with an IPS matrix and a resolution of 2560x1440. The aspect ratio is 16:9, the refresh rate, like all decent PC gaming monitors, reaches 144 Hz. Viewing angles are large, so the monitor is not subject to inversion and it is quite possible to hang it on the wall and look at it from different angles. The screen is covered with "anti-glare". The backlight is endowed with Flicker-Free - flicker protection.The diagonal is 27 inches, and this is the optimal size for a computer if comfort is a priority, and not the cost of the device.

The reviews praise a large (but not excessive) margin of brightness and a high screen refresh rate of 144 Hz, thanks to which you are completely immersed in the gaming process. They also pay attention to adaptive sync - the monitor works great with new video cards and adjusts the screen frequency to the frame rate. The stand is light and small in size, so it won't take up a lot of space on the table. The main disadvantage is the uneven backlighting and the presence of highlights in the corners (noticeable only when dark games are turned on).

Gaming monitor with a curved IPS matrix, 34 inches diagonal and a resolution of 3440x1440 pixels. The aspect ratio is 21:9, the image is contrasty, the viewing angles are large, the backlight is flicker-free and there is support for FreeSync Premium. The refresh rate is 144Hz, so the monitor can be called one of the best for gaming. Of the outputs, there are 2 HDMI 2.0, 2 DisplayPort1.4 and an audio port. The screen coating is glossy, but with an anti-reflective effect.

The stand is surprisingly functional: the monitor is attached to it with a special magnetic lock, thanks to which it can be adjusted in height and rotated to the sides. The monitor is great for PC. The reviews write that similar models with similar characteristics are much more expensive, so this Xiaomi deserves the title of the most profitable. Users did not find serious shortcomings: perhaps the matrix is ​​​​8 bit, because of which part of the halftones and saturated colors are lost.

The first place in the rating of computer monitors for games is DELL S2716DG, a model with top features even for professional gaming. Ultra-fast TFT TN sensor, 2560x1440 resolution, 27 inch screen and 144Hz refresh rate. Add to this the support for G-Sync, with which modern games look much better, frame transfer is lightning fast. What could be better for a fan of computer battles?

The monitor has a perfect matte finish that completely eliminates glare. Bright and rich colors will not let your eyes get tired even after several hours of continuous play. In numerous reviews, users note the fast response, build quality, comfortable stand, small pixel and gorgeous 2K resolution for a diagonal of 27 inches.
