Plenty of our monitors offer full HD with superb picture quality at an excellent price. We have a huge range of monitors for you to choose from, why not have a look at our most popular 24 inch monitors above?

Is 24 inches a good monitor size?

Monitors come in a variety of sizes, size being defined by the length in inches between opposite screen corners. Nowadays, a 24 inch monitor is the baseline size for any good quality monitor. While some monitors go all the way up to 30 inches and above, 24 inches is all you realistically need if you’re simply planning on using your monitor for work, streaming movies, and general internet browsing.

Why should I buy a 24 inch monitor?

While it is often said that big is better, this isn’t always the case. In many ways, a 24 inch monitor is the ideal size for an average desk setup. Combining plenty of screen space for working with good refresh rate, a 24 inch monitor is capable of seamlessly coping with multiple open windows simultaneously while operating video calls and other taxing apps.

And a 24 inch monitor doesn’t necessarily have to be for casual use. Many pro-gamers actually prefer 24 inch monitors for their excellent framerate and pin-perfect pixels.

A 24″ monitor is also a great choice if you plan on working with multiple screens or a laptop monitor combination. Its reasonable size makes it easy to comfortably fit two monitors on any standard desk, and if you plan on having a vertical display, a 24 inch monitor will give you all the space you need without having to crane your neck. Just make sure that your desk can accommodate both a dual screen set up before buying.

Despite their smaller size, 24 inch monitors also hold multiple advantages over a larger or even curved screen. Obviously, they have a much lower price tag and take up less space than their larger counterparts, but large screens also tend to lend themselves better towards more specialised fields such as animation or video editing. While a 27 inch monitor might seem great for all the extra screen space it provides, a casual user will likely find that it’s too much for what you need.

Curved screens on the other hand are designed to be more immersive and are therefore preferred by dedicated gamers. With a 24 inch monitor, you’ll get excellent visual quality while saving on desk space.

What to consider when choosing your 24 inch monitor?

As a general rule, a good monitor needs a high-resolution display, good aspect ratio, varied connections, and up-to-date ergonomics. All these help to deliver a pleasant viewing experience that looks spectacular without putting pressure on your eyes no matter what you are using it for.

What is a good monitor resolution?

Perhaps the biggest factor to consider when choosing your desktop PC monitor, the better your chosen resolution, the more pixels you’ll have on screen and the better the quality of your screen’s image. By picking a monitor that can accommodate at least a 1920×1080 resolution you can be sure the picture will be excellent without spending too much.

What is a monitor’s aspect ratio?

If you’re after a screen to enhance your favourite movies and Netflix shows, you’re going to want a monitor with a high aspect ratio. The aspect ratio is determined by the horizontal and vertical length of your screen, the bigger the aspect ratio the better it’s going to be for viewing movies. An aspect ration of 16:9 or 16:10 is ideal for a 24 inch monitor.

What are its ergonomics?

A monitor with excellent ergonomics is a must to avoid eye, neck, and back problems. When browsing monitors, take care to look for additional features such as the screen being flicker free, offering anti-reflection for bright environments, and reduced blue light.

All monitors also come with a stand designed to be adjusted for height and angle. Take into account your workspace and how adjustable your stand will need to be. Getting the best height-adjustable, tilt and pivot mechanisms for your setup will go a long way to making your working day that much more comfortable.

How many connections does it have?

A monitor with varied and multiple ports is a must so you can link your desktop, laptop, extra monitors, and any other peripherals you have to your setup. Look out for the number of display, HDMI, and USB ports on your chosen model to make sure you can connect everything you need. Certain monitors even let you connect and display content from portable devices like smartphones and Blue-Ray players.
