HD Ready monitors

Discover our range of HD Ready monitors

You're on the lookout for a new monitor and you've got your eye on some stylish models. But what features should you look for? And what if you want to take your viewing experience further with a curved screen or 4K resolution? We've got all the details.

First up, the specs. You'll need a screen that displays at least 1080p resolution (that's HD) to watch videos, play games and watch your favourite films and TV shows at their very best. So, what other features should you look for?

Response times: the faster, the better the screen will be at showing off those swift moving objects and reducing motion blur, an important factor if you watch a lot of sports or action movies. The refresh rates - how often the screen can be updated - needs to be 60Hz for regular HD ready TVs and 75Hz for 4K monitors. To display the deepest blacks, look for a screen with a contrast ratio of 1000:1 or greater.

If you want to enjoy full cinematic immersion, sound quality is important, so look for screens with high-end built-in speakers. USB ports are also useful if you want to connect devices like digital cameras and MP3 players to view-listen to files on your computer or play music from streaming services like Spotify Connect.

We know aesthetics are important when picking out a new monitor so we were pleased to offer an extensive choice of sizes, including small, medium and large screens. If you're looking for a big wall clock style display we suggest taking a look at our range of home cinema monitors.

Want even more choice? We offer an array of brands including Samsung, LG and Iiyama so you can find a monitor that perfectly matches your needs and budget.
