The 10 best monitors for eyes

As a rule, external monitors are used at home or in the office. But sometimes the specifics of forced to constantly be in motion, and the additional virtual space is still required. Save in such a situation a portable monitor like MB16AC from ASUS. Externally, the device resembles a huge tablet with a display diagonal of 15.6 inches. Bulky device not called: dimensions 360х226х8 mm and weight only 0.78 kg, So quite comfortable to carry in a bag with a laptop. The display is covered with an integrated cover, which also acts as a stand with adjustable degree of tilt and orientation of the screen. The picture is shown via a single USB Type-C wire.

The quality of the picture when you consider the portability of the monitor is excellent. The resolution of 1920x1080 pixels – enough for such diagonal. Viewing angles and color quality is excellent – after all, the use of IPS matrix makes itself felt. You can find fault with only a relatively low brightness – 220 CD/m2 will be small for operation in the sun – and incomplete coverage of the color space AdobeRGB, and then for designers and photographers MB16AC will not work. To preserve eye health, use the backlight without flickering and the system of weakening the blue color.

Most buyers are not willing to pay a round sum for a fancy monitor. For such perfect Motorola GW2283. Given such a small cost, nothing to complain about. Modern design: the frame around the screen is small, there is only a lower bound. Leg lovely, sustainable and with a channel for neat routing of cables. The display size of 21.5 inches. Also, the manufacturer installed a pair of speakers with a total capacity of... 2 W. Plays better smartphone, but competitors do not offer.

The picture quality is excellent. IPS matrix has a maximum viewing angles, good color reproduction (factory calibration) and the usual for this class brightness of 250 CD/m2. For eye protection in addition to the backlight flicker-free technology and the weakening of the blue color used is a light sensor that automatically adjusts the brightness of the display under ambient conditions.

Rating (2021): 4.7

Go to the monitor with atypical 2020 aspect ratio – 16:10. Fashion narrow model, convenient for watching videos or playing games. Z24n G2 is a compromise, which will be a little better to work with text, photographs and other tasks, where the vertical viewing angle. Diagonal IPS matrix with a resolution of 1920x1200 pixels 24 inches. To reduce eye strain, use the backlight flicker-free technology to the weakening of the blue color, anti-glare coating. Also happy high brightness – 300 CD/m2 – this allows you not to squint under bright lighting.

We would like to note the design. When viewed from the front it seems that the screen hangs in the air – leg is almost not visible. The rear metal cover, hidden from view connectors and minimalistic logos. This monitor is not ashamed to put on the table in the middle of the office. Besides, the leg is very functional – you can expand the display without rotating the stand, adjust the height, tilt angle.

Rating (2021): 4.7

Cost ranking without gaming devices is nearly impossible. The first representative of this category was relatively affordable model PG248Q. Count on excellent color reproduction is not necessary, because the used TN-matrix. Besides, some users complain of yellow starbursts at the top of the screen. But the demands of the game models are quite different – here the desired speed. And ASUS it provides in full: the update frequency can reach 180 Hz at acceleration (the default value is 144 Hz) in response to 1 MS – can comfortably play the most dynamic online shooters. There is support for 3D, if someone else uses it...

From "protective" technology is nothing new, Flicker-free, the weakening of the blue color and the anti-glare display. We will note only the presence of G-Sync, which allows you to display a more smooth picture without artifacts. Of the shortcomings can be noted only insufficiently low minimum luminance of about 65 CD/m2. Highly not recommended to use the monitor for get-togethers in complete darkness – tire the eyes.

6 DELL P2415Q

DELL – one of the recognized leaders in the production of monitors. P2415Q is the most quality and safe monitor with a resolution of 4K UltraHD that we could find. The matrix diagonal of 23.8 inches. The stand is minimalistic, but well-designed in terms of cable management. Adjustment wide: vertical, horizontal, tilt, portrait mode.

The picture quality is excellent. But if you alone will recalibrate the monitor, will be even better. Technology-enhance image, to prevent eyestrain, the same supports and FlickerFree, and a system for improving the uniformity of illumination.

Rating (2021): 4.8

The monitors with aspect ratio 21:9 appear frequently on the tables of users. The advantages of the format are obvious: during operation it is possible to place two apps side-by-side, and movies are displayed without any annoying black bars. But regardless of the format of the monitor should be safe, and U3415W just like that. Diagonal AH-IPS matrix is 34 inches. Resolution 3440х1440 pixels.

4 PHILIPS BDM4350UC

The large monitor
Average price: 38 835 ₽
Rating (2021): 4.8

Philips is the largest monitor in the collection. The diagonal of this monster is nearly of 42.51 inch – you can safely connect an external TV tuner and use BDM4350UC as a TV or screen for the gaming console. Resolution TFT IPS panels is 3840 by 2160, i.e. 4K UltraHD. Of the minuses immediately catches the eye no adjustments to the monitor height, angle, etc. – there are only two fixed legs. The semi-gloss coating display. Crystalline effect is almost not visible, but will have to put up with glare from bright light sources. The picture quality is excellent, factory-calibrated close to perfect and even an experienced user is unlikely to improve color reproduction.

Technology to reduce eye strain are all very ambiguous. On the one hand, supported and FlickerFree and alignment system illumination. On the other, the effect is noticeable only on technology, which reduces flickering. SmartUniformity designed to reduce the difference in brightness in different parts of the screen, if it works, it is very poorly – even a professional eye will hardly see the difference. In the end, we have before us the largest monitor on the market with excellent image quality, but not with the most advanced technology protect your eyes from fatigue.

Stock of such brightness (450 CD/m2), it is possible to work even in front of bright Windows. In addition, the anti-glare coating of the display. For eyes safety technology FlickerFree and the weakening of the blue. Also for user comfort adjustable play in all positions stand, and hence is comfortable and the spine, and the technology FlickerFree 2. Of the shortcomings – the lack of a port USB Type-C.

Maximum brightness is 350 CD/m2 , coupled with a matte finish is enough to work in bright light, but the minimum level is – 67 CD/m2 would like just a little bit lower.

Of course, the screen uses backlight without flickering and preselection, which reduces the brightness of blue color and contrast. In addition to that, the manufacturer has added a light sensor by which brightness self-adjusts to the environment. There is also a sensor of the presence of the monitor can determine when it is unoccupied, and go into power saving mode.

Amenities of note are interesting, but simple design, the remote control to control the settings, a couple of speakers with a total power of 10 W and the presence of the reader on the right side.
