Little Help? Curved £300 ish.

Stretlow · 8 Dec 2021 at 17:09

Hello.

One of my friends is asking for a recommendation for a new monitor, no gaming however he's been using his sons curved 27 inch and has decided he likes it.

Could anyone please recommend a 27 inch curved monitor for this budget?

Many thanks in advance

Anyone?

Does it even matter too much if hes not gaming?

There's a curved filter on overclockers.

See what checks the boxes for you.

Reason being if he likes that panel and ends up with something brighter like led backlit, etc then you don't want to dissapoint.

Is he watching 4k videos, etc or general browsing. ?
