5. AOC myPlay I2757Fm

  • Reviewed on: 13 December 12
  • RRP: £230 inc. VAT
  • Rating: Rated 8 out of 10

The AOC myPlay I2757Fm is a good-looking monitor which performs well and is great value for money at £230. However, build quality is a little less luxurious to the touch than it is to the eyes. MHL support is very handy for Android users who can hook up and charge their devices with a single cable.

4. ViewSonic VP2765-LED

  • RRP: £350 inc. VAT
  • Rating: Rated 7 out of 10

The ViewSonic VP2765-LED's image quality isn’t bad for a professional-grade monitor, but there are better and cheaper options available.

3. Asus PA248Q

  • RRP: £333 inc. VAT
  • Rating: Rated 8 out of 10

The Asus PA248Q is aimed at serious graphics professionals and enthusiasts and delivers great performance and plenty of features for the money. It offers more screen space than a typical 24inch display and offers a full set of adjustments and comes calibrated.

2. LG 29EA93

  • Reviewed on: 16 May 13
  • RRP: £420 inc VAT
  • Rating: Rated 9 out of 10

The LG 29EA93 won’t be for everyone. The 2560 by 1080 pixel ultra-wide aspect ratio is great, but brings with it issues of compatibility with existing software and hardware. Some of the more advanced options can be tricky to set up. However, our sample delivered highly accurate factory-calibrated colour and the vast selection of features are sure to please demanding users.

1. Dell S2440L

Dell S2440L
  • Reviewed on: 13 December 12
  • RRP: £194 inc VAT
  • Rating: Rated 8 out of 10

The Dell S2440L is constructed to a very high standard, the edge-to-edge glass adding a touch of class to its already very clean minimalist lines. The display itself is capable of impressive performance. It's not the cheapest 24inch display you'll find, but feels well worth the money.
