Cheap monitor

[ukracer]

My grandsons monitor seems to be playing up so I wanted a cheap large screen to replace it.

I have a choice of two currently but not sure which is the best value.



Any advice please??
Edit : I only was only after a cheapo and I have a choice of either of those at £150

I can't comment on them but can throw another into the mix, Benq EW3270ue. I recently bought one and it really is a stunning picture

All good brands, Benq evolved from Agfa, so very colour quality focused.

Not at that price mate. I failed to put they are both 150 quid 2nd hand. But thanks anyway.

I bought a pair of Benq monitors both new exact same model and the colours on each are subtly different.

At 32" I only needed the one monitor but colour can be adjusted anyway. BTW 32" looked much smaller in the store

Don't buy used ones.

Box Ltd

Box are fantastic - they have this brand new for £189

I run a couple of AOC Q2577W QHD displays at work and another at home, stunning displays for the money!

We run our 32" monitors split screen same as having 2 monitors side by side.

LG actually make screens so I would choose them for monitors and tellys....

Many manufacturers make screens.
LG are the only ones to make OLED panels though!

Very few monitor manufacturers make their own screens which is what I meant. Samsung would be another worth looking at.....

We've got an LG telly and we hate everything about it, it's also already been replaced under warranty. Wouldn't have another.

Out of the two options in the first post, I'd go for the second one, QHD is better than Ultrawide imo.

Which one?
Their OLEDs are awesome.
If you buy a Sony, Samsung, Philips or any other OLED TV it will have an LG screen.

 

[Maker]

OLED, I wish. It's the biggest, cheapest, best 4k TV could find when the PS4 Pro came out, which my brother had to have, and needed a tv to match it.

What is QHD?

Well

Well I had had the computer running stress tests all day on my monitor and its rock solid.

Seems like it might be the power supply connection to the main board as it was Hellishly dusty.

Bonus is his monitor is probably OK as the computer was doing all sorts of random things. Like freezing and Rebooting but the key issue was the screen went into sleep mode (or looked like it at least) and stayed black even after key presses or mouse movement.
It was not possible to know if it was computer or screen.

So I am going to clean out the dust and remove cables and memory etc and spray with contact cleaner or

Servisol AV-701.131UK or what ever is recommended for computers.​

What is QHD?

Quad high definition, 2560x1440 pixels, better than 1080p (FHD) but not quite 4K (UHD).

 

[Stupoty]

Qhd (2560x1440) is better on a 32 , I have a qhd 27 inch and text is a bit on the small side
