Best 24" monitor that's not Dell/HP

ivan · 5 Sep 2017 at 14:14

Hi all,

I am looking for the best 24" monitor in the 150-250 range that is not a Dell or HP (not my restriction).

Saw a good ViewSonic, a decent BenQ, but nothing that made me feel "gotta have this one".

Therefore, I am reaching out to the community to ask for recommendations.

List of requirements:

- Adjustable height and swivel
- HDMI/DP connectivity (VGA/DVI would be nice, but optional)
- Not curved
- The greater viewing angles are the better
- IPS panel (no TN)
- The slimmer the bezel the better
- Needs to support WQHD (2560x1440) resolution
- Speakers would be nice but optional

Thank you in advance!

A Dell with the badges and stickers removed?

I think Asus make a 24" 2560x1440, not sure how far up the best ladder it would be tho. Eizo might do one but they can be pricey.

Yep, the Asus VX24AH 24" 2560x1440 IPS can be had currently for £199 at an alternative site.

The reason for "no Dell/HP" policy is because this monitor is for work and they would not let me expense a Dell/HP for business reasons.

That one seems good, but no DP input

You can buy the 24" Dell for about the same price as the Asus.

I could, but since work won't let me expense a Dell monitor, it would be a waste of money
