Low Blue Light mode, a new feature that became popular around 2016, has now become a standard feature on monitors. According to media reports, blue light has already made people pale at the sound, as its harm to the eyes has been verified through medical examples. The low blue light mode usually uses a slider or a series of preset forms to gradually reduce the blue light in the image. After enabling this function, it has a certain impact on the overall color presentation of the screen, but it is indeed necessary for protecting the eyes.
response time
Response time, also known as standard response time, refers to the time required to turn off a pixel, then turn it on and off again (or from black to white and back to black). The response time of a monitor is divided into standard response time and grayscale response time. If the response time is too long, there may be "blurriness" and "ghosting" when playing games or watching movies. The general experience for consumers when making purchases is that the shorter the response time, the better. Additionally, it should be noted that the response time is divided into two parts: Tr (rise time) and Tf (fall time). The transition from black to white is called rise, and from white to black is called fall. The response time is the sum of these two values. However, some manufacturers only label one of these two values to mislead consumers, so it is important to understand them clearly when making a purchase.
Curved display
Monitors are divided into regular flat displays and curved displays. In theory, curved screens provide a wider viewing angle and an immersive experience, with smaller curvature radii resulting in greater curvature. To reap the benefits of curved surfaces, you need a large 100 inch screen and sit very close, which may give you a more immersive "movie" experience. But you may not want such a big TV or computer monitor, and you may not want to sit so close. If your monitor is not that big, a curved monitor is actually not very useful.
Brightness/contrast
Liquid crystal is a substance between liquid and crystal, and cannot emit light on its own, so the brightness of the backlight determines its brightness. Generally speaking, the higher the brightness of a LCD display, the more vivid the displayed colors and the better the display effect; If the brightness is too low, the displayed color will be darker, and you will feel tired after watching for a long time. Contrast is the ratio of brightness, which refers to the brightness of a white image divided by the brightness of a black image in a dark room. Therefore, the brighter the white and the darker the black, the higher the contrast, the clearer and brighter the displayed image, and the stronger the sense of color hierarchy. For consumers who frequently use computers to play games or do graphic processing, they should choose LCD displays with higher contrast. For users who have a special preference for DVD blockbusters, high brightness/high contrast LCD displays are the most suitable choice. Of course, higher brightness and contrast are not necessarily better. Watching a high brightness LCD screen for a long time can also easily cause eye fatigue.
Bad pixels "are irreparable physical pixels on a LCD panel, divided into bright and dark spots. Bright spots refer to pixels that still emit light when the screen displays black, while dark spots refer to pixels that do not display color. As their presence can affect the display effect of the image, the fewer bad pixels, the better. Consumers should not choose products with more than three bad pixels when selecting LCD displays. How to test for bad pixels on a monitor? Users can use the Nokia Monitor Test software for testing. In addition to "dark spots" and "bright spots", there are also "color dots" that always display a single color.
The light of a LCD monitor is emitted forward through the liquid crystal at a nearly vertical angle, so when we observe the screen from other angles, we will not see it as clearly as we do with a CRT monitor, but will see obvious color distortion. This is caused by the size of the viewing angle. The viewing angle is divided into horizontal viewing angle and vertical viewing angle. When choosing a LCD display, it is advisable to choose products with larger viewing angles. At present, the viewing angle of LCD displays is generally above 140 degrees, which can meet the needs of ordinary users. Regardless of the visual angle value, whether it is convenient for one's own use is fundamental, and it is best to choose according to one's daily usage habits.
The warranty period of the monitor is determined by the manufacturer themselves, usually with a full free warranty service of 1-3 years. Therefore, consumers need to understand the detailed warranty period to avoid any problems that may affect their use of the product. Therefore, consumers should try to choose products with longer warranty periods.
