Ranking the Best Value 1080p Monitors (Tier List)

Thanks for this. I purchased an EX240 based on your recommendation. I actually got it as a second monitor as I didn't want my main monitor (Dell G3223Q) to be slowed down when using two. The picture looked so good when I hooked it up I could see that my main monitor's settings were off. Quick adjustment of the contrast settings and I have two good looking monitors now. Cheers.

[@rajeebnayak2836]

Great content. Your videos are clean and direct to the point. I generally watch video by skipping in between but while watching this one I didn't realise when did the video get over and I didn't press a key in between. Nice one keep it up.

KZbin would be a much better platform if more content creators emulated your no-nonsense approach to presenting information. Gotta say that the 2510S getting shoved into D tier was painful since I got the original EX2510 with an AU Optronics panel primarily informed by yours and HUB's videos, but from memory the panel on the 2510S is supposed to be a bit of a downgrade. Even if the original were to be poor value in today's market though, I'm happy overall since it means manufacturers are competing more aggressively! Very recently got the Koorui for a family member, they love it.

[@srvuk]

Very useful indeed. Now I would love to see a similar list but with video/media consumption as the primary factor.

[@chakko007]

Thanks for doing these videos. They've become very important for my product choices. Not sure if I agree with the ranking here though. I would have ranked the two monitors with the good contrast ratio on top (MSI G2412 and the AOC 24GSP(U)). I think the contrast ratio is very important, and often hopelessly neglected. Nothing worse than the lack of detail, and brightness with dark screen content.

I got the msi g2412 at 108USD as it seemed the best value for money to me and so far my experience with this monitor has been quite good. I calibrated the colors and it looks as good as any other panel under 250bucks, the contrast ratio is amazing and after calibration you can hit low ∆E values as well. I'm currently using it with the overclock turned on at 169.9Hz and its working fine without any significant ghosting. I play cs2 and apex legends the response time is amazing and it works well with nvidia gsync even though it's not in the nvidias list of gsync certified monitors(maybe cus it's new) I faced no issues. The build quality is good, I travel to and fro with it from my college dorm.

Gigabyte G24F-2 has better display colors but Mobiuz ex240 has 50nits more and an extra cheap audio. Both have adjustable stand, response time 1ms and a nice design for most tastes.

The solution is to go up in terms of pixels. For example, it's better to have a 4K monitor for daily tasks and just upscale a 1080p game. That's why I returned my 35" ultra wide. 1440 x 3440 is impossible to use without an expensive GPU.
