The 10 Best 4k Monitors

10. BenQ PD2720U

Intended specifically for design professionals, the BenQ PD2720U (appx. $1100) boasts nearly complete coverage of the DCI-P3, Adobe, and sRGB color gamuts. Geared toward maximum productivity, it sports a built-in KVM switch and can rotate 90 degrees into portrait orientation.

9. Acer Predator

With a Delta E of less than one and HDR400 certification, the 27-inch Acer Predator (about $900) is more technologically advanced than much of the competition. It’s among the first 120-hertz Ultra HD displays, and can be overclocked to 144 hertz.

8. ViewSonic VX4380

About as big as they come, the ViewSonic VX4380 (about $580) features multi-picture functionality that lets you divide it into a number of custom-size screens, helping to increase your multitasking capabilities. Not only is it incredibly versatile, it’s also pretty reasonably priced.

7. Asus ROG Swift PG27UQ

With an impressive peak brightness of 1,000 nits and 384 local dimming zones, the Asus ROG Swift PG27UQ (around $1430) looks good in any lighting conditions. Its IPS panel covers nearly the entire cinematic and Adobe color spaces while delivering an exceptional viewing angle..

6. Philips Momentum

While it does cost quite a bit, the Philips Momentum (about $910) is among the most refined on the market. It’s as large as any dedicated computer peripheral around, and features quantum dot filtration, much like what’s found on extremely high-end TVs.

5. Philips E-Series

A great option at a very reasonable price, the Philips E-Series (appx. $250) uses frame rate control to simulate over a billion colors, increasing uniformity and eliminating banding. Its MultiView technology lets you switch between dual active inputs for efficiency at work.

4. Acer ET322QK

If you’ve already invested in a powerful graphics card, the Acer ET322QK (around $350) will let you game on it without dropping a ton more cash. Its 31.5-inch VA panel ensures accurate reproduction, a high maximum brightness, and a wide viewing angle.

3. Dell UltraSharp U3219Q

The latest in an extremely well-regarded series of displays, the Dell UltraSharp U3219Q (about $710) delivers exceptional clarity over 32 inches of real estate. It’s factory-calibrated to cover nearly the entire sRGB spectrum, and sports an almost non-existent bezel.

2. LG 27UL

Two distinct versions of the LG 27UL (appx. $347) stand out as among the best values currently available. The base model offers excellent image quality at an impressively low price, while the upgraded option adds a type C input and DisplayHDR 600 certification.

1. LG UltraFine

One of the highest-resolution 21:9 models released to date, the LG UltraFine (around $1039) boasts a wide range of additional high-end features. It offers Thunderbolt 3 as well as DisplayPort 1.4 connectivity, and works great with modern MacBooks and the latest video cards.
