Features
A function that includes built-in speakers, allowing audio output directly from the monitor. This eliminates the need for external speakers, saving desk space and reducing cable clutter. Convenient for enjoying videos or casual listening without additional equipment.
The built-in speakers provide basic audio output, which is convenient for on-the-go use without external speakers. However, the sound quality is generally limited and may not be suitable for critical listening. For better audio, connecting headphones or external speakers is recommended, especially in noisy environments.
A function that reduces the amount of blue light emitted from the screen. This can help reduce eye strain and fatigue, especially during long periods of use. Beneficial for users who spend many hours in front of the monitor.
The absence of a blue light reduction function may lead to eye strain and fatigue during prolonged use, especially in low-light conditions. Users who spend many hours in front of the monitor may need to use software-based blue light filters or consider external blue light blocking glasses to mitigate these effects.
A function that allows adjusting the height of the monitor stand. This enables users to position the screen at an ergonomic viewing angle, reducing neck and back strain. Useful for maintaining good posture and comfort during extended use.
The lack of height adjustment may require users to use external stands or props to achieve an optimal viewing angle, which can be inconvenient. This limitation may affect the ergonomic comfort and overall usability of the monitor, especially for extended work sessions.
A function that allows tilting the monitor screen forward or backward. This helps to optimize the viewing angle and reduce glare, improving visibility and comfort. Useful for different viewing positions and lighting conditions.
The tilt adjustment feature allows users to adjust the viewing angle to reduce glare and improve visibility, enhancing comfort and usability. This flexibility is particularly useful in different lighting conditions and viewing positions, making it easier to find an optimal setup.
A function that allows rotating the monitor screen 90 degrees to a vertical orientation. This is particularly useful for tasks like reading long documents, coding, or web browsing. It maximizes screen space for vertically oriented content.
The absence of a pivot function limits the monitor's usability for tasks that benefit from a vertical screen orientation, such as coding, reading long documents, or viewing social media feeds. Users who frequently work with vertically oriented content may find this limitation inconvenient.
A function that allows mounting the monitor on a VESA-compatible wall mount or monitor arm. This frees up desk space and allows for flexible positioning of the monitor. Useful for creating a clean and organized workspace.
The lack of VESA mount compatibility restricts the monitor to desk or stand use, limiting its flexibility in terms of mounting options. Users who prefer to mount their monitors on a wall or monitor arm to save desk space or improve ergonomics will find this limitation significant.
SHOPSTAFF Rating Score
