![]() ![]() Having a good contrast ratio is a little more important than having accurate color-you can often fix inaccurate color after the fact by calibrating the monitor yourself, but a poor contrast ratio is harder to address. A contrast ratio of 1000:1 or higher (note that higher is better) is typical of IPS panels. Instead of relying on the manufacturer’s listing, we measured each monitor’s contrast ratio during our testing. Contrast ratio: A good contrast ratio makes the dark areas of a screen easier to see when you’re watching a movie or playing a game.Great monitors should also include a USB 3.0 hub so you can connect peripherals such as keyboards, mice, and webcams, as modern laptops come with fewer and fewer ports of their own. Ports: Since most computers have either an HDMI port or a DisplayPort connection, having both is a requirement for any good monitor, and the best models also include a USB-C port that can receive a display signal and charge a connected laptop at the same time. ![]() For most people, QHD monitors offer the best combination of detail, usable desktop space, and price. And 4K monitors, while excellent for photo or video work, are more expensive-this is part of the reason we have a separate guide for them. For a 27-inch monitor, 1080p is too low a resolution-text and images are likely to be visibly pixelated or blocky. Resolution: The three most common monitor resolutions that we test across all our guides are 1080p, or 1920×1080 Quad HD/QHD, or 2560×1440 and 4K, or 3840×2160.Display technology: We test only those monitors that use IPS display panels, not TN (or VA) technology, because IPS panels provide far better viewing angles and color reproduction. ![]()
