THE DIFFERENCES, MADE VISIBLE

Visual facts

Differences first. Select a topic for its graphic, sources and conditions.

How to read this comparison
  • Manufacturer facts for the exact models shown. Not a quality rating or a test result.
  • “Different” means the known values differ, not that one is better.
  • Missing or conflicting evidence is marked and never counts as a difference. Source chips hold each fact’s sources and conditions.

Screen diagonal

Panel diagonal. Resolution, aspect ratio and viewing distance also affect the workspace; a larger diagonal is not an image-quality score.

Explore the full specifications

Match the monitor to the connection. Refresh limits depend on the input, cable and source device. Confirm the exact regional ports, stand adjustment and mount. Manufacturer response-time methods such as MPRT and GtG are different; neither the image nor these figures establish an independent motion or colour-quality test.

The current specification page and datasheet print the same numbers as 557.5 × 228.9 × 406.9 mm under the same W × H × D label, but 228.9 mm is shorter than the 302.6 mm active-area height, so that ordering cannot be height-second; the manual order is used. · Manufacturer specification · Manufacturer assembled dimensions with the supplied stand. Depth excludes additional cable clearance; this is not panel thickness.
