Are you looking for a new monitor to upgrade your setup in 2024? Look no further! Gad Insider has compiled a list of 5 monitors worth checking out for 2024. These monitors are perfect for gaming, work, and everything in between.
Best monitors for 2024
HP Omen 27i 1440p 27-inch monitor: This monitor is part of HP’s Omen gaming line, but it’s also great for work and play. It features a wide colour gamut (98% P3), a gaming-friendly 165Hz refresh rate with Nvidia G-Sync (over DisplayPort), and an elegant design that should pass muster with less gaming-oriented family members.
It’s got some simple gaming lighting, but also a useful task light shining down beneath the bottom bezel. And because of the unique port arrangement — on the sides of a diamond in the back — it’s a lot easier to manoeuvre cables than the typical recessed, bottom-accessed design. It’s priced at $400.
BenQ EX2780Q 1440p 144Hz monitor: This 27-inch model isn’t cheap, but if you have the luxury of considering something that will last you a while, the EX2780Q is a good multipurpose choice for the money (and the price has dropped recently).
In addition to its 2,560x1,440 resolution for sharper edges in everyday use than 1,920x1,080, it’s got a gaming-friendly 144Hz refresh rate, 400-nit brightness and a 95% P3 gamut for basic HDR support in games and movies, plus built-in speakers that actually sound pretty good. There’s one drawback, though: you can tilt it, but not raise or lower it. It’s priced at $500.
Asus ProArt PA278QV 1440p sRGB monitor: If you need a colour-accurate monitor on the cheap-ish, the 2,560x1,440 PA278QV is a great way to go. Its sRGB accuracy is excellent, plus it’s quite well-rounded for the money, with a 75Hz refresh rate if you need it for games that don’t have fast action – simulations, turn-based RPGs and so on — a USB hub, a full set of inputs and speakers. It’s priced at $400.
Samsung Odyssey G9 49" QHD QLED Curved Monitor: This monitor is a bit expensive, but it’s worth it if you’re looking for a large, curved display. It has a 49-inch screen with a 5120 x 1440 resolution, a 240Hz refresh rate, and a 1ms response time.
It also has a 1000R curvature, which provides an immersive viewing experience. It’s priced at $1,399.99.
Dell G2723H 27" 1080p 280Hz IPS Gaming Monitor: This monitor is a great budget option for gamers. It has a 27-inch screen with a 1920 x 1080 resolution, a 280Hz refresh rate, and a 1ms response time. It also has an IPS panel, which provides great colour accuracy and viewing angles. It’s priced at $149.99
