What to look for in 27-inch monitors

1. Resolution

Higher resolutions like QHD (2560x1440) or 4K (3840x2160) offer sharper images and more screen real estate compared to standard Full HD. Consider your needs and your computer’s capabilities when selecting resolution.

2. Refresh Rate and Response Time

Gamers will benefit from a higher refresh rate (such as 144Hz or 165Hz) and low response times (1ms to 5ms) for smoother visuals and less motion blur during fast-paced action.

3. Panel Type

IPS panels provide better colour accuracy and wider viewing angles, while VA panels offer deeper contrast. TN panels usually have the fastest response times but may sacrifice colour quality.

4. Connectivity Options

Make sure the monitor has the ports you need, such as HDMI, DisplayPort, USB-C, or built-in USB hubs for peripherals. This ensures compatibility with your devices and future-proofs your setup.
