Monitor advice!

PostMon Apr 17, 2023 6:12 pm

As I am not well-versed in monitors, could you recommend some affordable options for business and general use, except for Apple products? I have decided to transition from a laptop to a monitor for my business needs.

Personally, I'd go with ASUS. In my personal experience and when I did a bit of research yesterday, ASUS came out on top in the sub $300 range.

The recommendations I made were for general use in an office. Doing spreadsheets, web browsing, email, etc. They're low blue light monitors, so they cause less eye strain.

If you needed high color accuracy for video or photo editing, graphic design, or similar, that's a whole other ballgame.

But if you are still confused on what to buy then you should consider these resources https://sturdybusiness.com/best-business-monitors-under-200/

Also, I own what's basically the older version of that 27" monitor I recommended... going on near 10 years now.

One thing to consider is matching the size with the proper resolution.

1080 - 24" minimum
1440 - 27" minimum
2160 - 32" minimum

And...if you're using Resolve, you'll want at least a 27" monitor.
My Biases:

You NEED training.
You NEED a desktop.
You NEED a calibrated (non-computer) display.
