New side monitors needed

Hiya

I need two new side monitors to flank my main gaming monitor.

The side monitors are mostly for watching Youtube, Twitch, Amazon Video and watching movies, never for gaming.

Does anyone have any suggestions please? My main monitor is IPS 30, so I was thinking the sides need to be 27"+ Since I want them for watching movies and stuff, I was thinking maybe VA panels be best since they got the best blacks?

Budget between £160-£350.

Is that budget for both monitors or per monitor?

For each monitor, sweet spot would be around £250, but am happy to look at any monitor up to £400 as well as a wildcard.

Will you be watching HDR content? Or is that not a concern? If it is then a Mini LED or OLED will be preferential.

If they're not your main monitor, I'd just browse around and grab a 2nd hand one. It's probably what I'll do!
