LED Computer Monitor Reviews 58

Monitors are measured diagonally from corner to corner, like televisions. LCD monitors have a native (fixed) resolution at which the display looks best. A 15-inch LCD has a 1024 by 768 pixel native resolution, while most 17- 19-inch models use a 1280 by 1024 native resolution. Although you can display other resolutions on LCDs, they may not be as clear as the native resolution. Entry-level business monitors should be at least 17 inches. For workers who spend most of their time working at their computer, 19 inches is preferred. In general, it is best to get the biggest monitor you can afford that fits on your desk. Many monitors have built-in speakers, which also saves desk space. The wide-screen format is best for working in large spreadsheets.
