Frequently Asked Questions
What panel types are available and how do they differ?
IPS (In-Plane Switching): Offers the widest viewing angles and the most accurate color reproduction, making it ideal for photo/video editing and general productivity.
VA (Vertical Alignment): Delivers higher contrast ratios and deeper blacks than IPS but with narrower viewing angles; great for media consumption.
TN (Twisted Nematic): Typically the fastest in response time, often used in budget or esports-focused models, but with more limited color and viewing angles.
Which resolutions and aspect ratios should I consider?
Common resolutions include Full HD (1920×1080), QHD (2560×1440), and 4K UHD (3840×2160).
Aspect ratios are usually 16:9 (standard widescreen) or 21:9 (ultrawide).
Higher resolutions give sharper text and more workspace, while ultrawide screens let you view multiple windows side by side without a multi-monitor setup.
How do refresh rate and response time impact performance?
Refresh rate (60 Hz–240 Hz+) determines how many times per second the display redraws—higher rates yield smoother motion in gaming and scrolling.
Response time (1–8 ms) is how quickly a pixel changes color; lower values reduce motion blur in fast-moving scenes.
If you don’t play fast-paced games, a 60–75 Hz, 4–5 ms monitor is usually sufficient.
What is HDR and why might I need it?
HDR (High Dynamic Range) enables a wider range between the darkest and brightest parts of an image for more lifelike contrast and color.
Look for a VESA DisplayHDR certification (e.g., 400, 600) to ensure true HDR performance.
HDR is most beneficial for HDR-enabled video content and gaming that supports it.
Which connectivity ports are supported?
Most monitors include a combination of HDMI and DisplayPort—HDMI is ubiquitous, while DisplayPort often supports higher refresh rates/resolutions.
You may also find USB-C (with DisplayPort Alt Mode and Power Delivery), USB-A downstream ports, and a 3.5 mm audio jack.
Check the “Specs” tab to confirm compatibility with your PC or laptop.
Do these monitors include built-in speakers or USB hubs?
Some models feature integrated stereo speakers—convenient but generally lower fidelity than external speakers.
Many professional and ultrawide monitors include a USB hub (USB-A or USB-C) to connect peripherals directly through the monitor for cleaner cable management.
What mounting and stand adjustability options are available?
Look for VESA 75×75 or 100×100 compatibility if you plan to use a wall or arm mount.
Factory stands may offer tilt, swivel, pivot (portrait mode), and height adjustment—handy for ergonomic setups.
How do brightness and contrast ratio affect image quality?
Brightness (measured in nits) affects visibility in bright rooms; 250–350 nits is standard, while 400+ is better for HDR.
Contrast ratio (e.g., 1000:1) is the brightness difference between white and black; higher ratios yield deeper blacks and more vivid images.
What is color gamut and why is calibration important?
Color gamut (sRGB, Adobe RGB, DCI-P3) indicates the range of displayable colors.
Monitors covering 99%+ of sRGB are fine for general use; wider gamuts suit photo/video professionals.
Calibration (via software or hardware calibrator) ensures color accuracy, crucial for content creation.
How much power do these monitors consume?
Typical power draw ranges from 20 W (small/IPS models) to 50 W+ (large/4K/HDR monitors).
Energy-saving modes and automatic brightness adjustment can reduce usage.
Check the energy-star or EPEAT rating for efficiency details.
What warranty coverage applies?
All monitors include a one-year manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship, unless an extended plan (two- or three-year) is explicitly offered on the product page.
Are VAT charges included in the price?
All monitor prices include VAT (value-added tax) by default; any VAT-exclusive pricing will be clearly noted on the individual product page.
