This Review has been updated 8 times since it was first published in December of 2018. Playing games on an actual monitor offers a handful of noticeable advantages over using a traditional television, such as a higher pixel density and vastly reduced input lag. They also tend to cost quite a bit less than the gigantic TV sets currently flooding the market. We’ve collected some of the most cost-effective and best-looking models for use with any version of the PlayStation 4. When users buy our independently chosen editorial choices, we may earn commissions to help fund the Review.
10. BenQ EL2870U
If you want to make the most of your top-of-the-line console, the BenQ EL2870U (around $300) can help you do it, thanks to an attractive, 4K panel with almost no input lag. It automatically adjusts its light output based on ambient conditions, plus it’s great for movies and PC games.
- 1-millisecond gray-to-gray time
- Minimal motion blur
- Hdr support sometimes fails
9. BenQ EW3270U
If you’ve got a few extra dollars to spend, you won’t regret splurging on the BenQ EW3270U (appx. $400), which easily does justice to the very latest hardware. It delivers excellent dynamic contrast levels, and automatically adjusts color temperature based on ambient conditions.
- Simulated 10-bit processing
- Broad color gamut coverage
- Relatively poor peak brightness
8. HP VH240A
As one of the least expensive recent releases, the HP VH240A (about $110) is a full HD screen that’s built using environmentally-friendly materials. It features height, pivot, and tilt adjustments, however, it’s not compatible with HDR content.
- Uses in-plane switching technology
- Relatively wide viewing angle
- Not quite as bright as most
7. BenQ Zowie RL
If you’re a budding eSports professional, or you just want to use the same gear the pros do, check out the BenQ Zowie RL (appx. $199). Practically synonymous with no-nonsense peripherals, it fits on a 100-millimeter wall mount, and is covered by a three-year warranty..
- Ultra-low response time
- Matte bezel that minimizes glare
- Lacks high dynamic range support
6. HP Pavilion
Fast-switching pixels allow the HP Pavilion (about $400) to minimize motion blur and make colors pop, while still providing detail to darker scenes. Since it covers nearly the entire DCI-P3 spectrum, you can be sure it’ll display every frame brilliantly.
- Built with eco-friendly materials
- Displayhdr 600 certification
- No ultra hd capability
5. Philips Momentum
Unlike most, the 43-inch Philips Momentum (about $910) is equipped with cutting-edge technologies often reserved for the newest TVs. Not only is it one of the largest models, it’s received the highest level of DisplayHDR certification, a feat few can boast.
- Just 4 milliseconds of input lag
- Quantum dot color filter
- One of the most expensive options
4. G-Story Portable
If you plan to play while on the move, check out the G-Story Portable (about $279), which is surprisingly thin and light for such a bright and well-made product. A 2160p resolution in a 13.3-inch form factor combine for crystal-clear images, even from only a couple of feet away.
- Built-in usb expansion port
- Flicker-free backlighting
- Backed by a year-long warranty
3. Dell S2719DM
Designed to be one of the sleekest and slimmest on the market, the Dell S2719DM (appx. $320) would make a classy, yet understated, addition to any game room. Its CinemaColor technology ensures vibrant, lifelike tones, even on older content.
- Extremely effective dynamic contrast
- Two hdmi inputs
- An almost nonexistent bezel
2. BenQ GL2580H
Great for those on a strict budget, the BenQ GL2580H (appx. $129) offers a 2-millisecond gray-to-gray time, which nearly eliminates ghosting and motion blur. While it’s not the most stylish, when it comes to entertainment, this one means business.
- Offered in 24 and 27 inch sizes
- Practically edge-to-edge design
- 3000-to-1 native contrast ratio
1. BenQ EW277
Owners of Sony’s Slim model will appreciate the BenQ EW277 (appx. $200), which promises to maximize HDR on supported titles. Its blue light filter and flicker-free operation help keep your eyes comfortable, while enjoying its 3000-to-1 native contrast ratio.
- Above-average 400-nit brightness
- B079QRS43V
- Among the most affordable choices
