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.
This monitor does not have built-in speakers, requiring users to rely on external audio solutions. The absence of built-in speakers might be a drawback for users who prefer the convenience of integrated audio, especially in portable setups where external speakers add to the bulk.
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 product information mentions HDR technology, which can help reduce eye strain during long periods of use. By reducing the amount of blue light emitted from the screen, this feature can contribute to a more comfortable viewing experience, especially in low-light environments.
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.
This monitor lacks height adjustment capabilities, potentially limiting ergonomic options for users. The absence of height adjustment may require users to use external stands or props to achieve an optimal viewing angle, which can be inconvenient.
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 product supports 0-180° rotation, allowing users to adjust the screen to their preferred angle. This flexibility in adjusting the screen angle can help reduce glare and improve visibility, making it easier to find a comfortable viewing position in various lighting conditions.
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.
This monitor does not support pivot functionality, which limits its usability for tasks that benefit from a vertical screen orientation. The absence of pivot functionality means users cannot rotate the screen to a portrait mode, which can be useful for reading long documents or coding.
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.
This monitor does not offer VESA mount compatibility, restricting its mounting options to the included stand. The lack of VESA mount compatibility limits its flexibility in terms of placement and setup, as it cannot be easily mounted on walls or monitor arms to save desk space.
