Tips for Shopping on Cyber Monday Computer Monitors
Cyber Monday is just around the corner, and you may be wondering what the best deals will be on computer monitors. Keep reading for some tips about what you should look for in a monitor and how to avoid getting scammed this holiday season.
Computer monitors come in a variety of sizes. When shopping, you’ll want to make sure that the monitor will fit comfortably on your desk while still leaving room for other items like a keyboard, mouse and speakers. A common mistake people make when buying monitors is to go for size rather than quality. In order to get a great picture, you’ll need a high resolution monitor with a response time of 8 milliseconds or less (ms). The ms stands for millisecond; it’s the measure of time it takes pixels on the screen to change color. Generally speaking, the higher number of ms, the better!
