The 5 Best Office Monitors - Fall 2019
Reviews

The Dell U2718Q is the best computer monitor for work that we've tested so far. It's a great office monitor overall, with a 27 inch, 4k screen, which is great for multitasking. It has good peak brightness and decent reflection handling, so glare isn't a significant issue in most rooms, and it has wide viewing angles, so you can easily share your screen with a client or colleague.

Like most Dell monitors, it has a great stand, with a wide range of ergonomic adjustments, so you can easily place it in an ideal viewing position. When you're not working, this monitor has an excellent response time and low input lag, great for casual gaming.

Unfortunately, like most IPS monitors, it doesn't look as good in a dark room, so it's not the best choice if you like working late in a dark room. It supports HDR, but this doesn't add much, as it can't get very bright in HDR and can't display a wide color gamut. Overall, this is a very good monitor for most uses, and it's a great choice for a business monitor.

If you typically find yourself working with 5 different windows open at once, an ultrawide monitor might be a better choice. The Dell U3818DW is the best ultrawide work monitor we've tested so far. This huge 38 inch monitor has an impressive 3840x1600 resolution, making it much easier to place multiple windows side-by-side. Despite the large size, it's still easy to place in an ideal viewing position, thanks to the wide tilt range and good height adjustment.

This monitor has some unique features that are great for working with two computers at once. It has a unique USB hub that connects to both computers, and combined with the Picture-by-Picture mode allows you to display and work on both computers at once, with only 1 keyboard and mouse. While this feature isn't for everyone, if you have multiple computers it makes it a breeze to switch from one to another.

Unfortunately, this monitor isn't as well-suited for watching movies or playing games, as there is noticeable motion smearing. It also doesn't look as good in a dark room. Despite these flaws, this is a great office monitor that should please most people, and is one of the best monitors for work.

If you need the most accurate colors possible, the best office monitor that we have reviewed so far is the Acer Predator X27. Unlike most monitors, this one delivers nearly 100% coverage of the Adobe RGB color space. It also has the widest HDR color gamut we've measured on any display so far, including TVs.

The 27 inch screen and 4k resolution are great for multitasking, and the stand has decent ergonomics that make it easier to adjust to an ideal viewing position. It has wide viewing angles and is extremely bright in HDR.

Unfortunately, it doesn't come cheap. It also isn't recommended for use in a dark room, as it has bad black uniformity and a mediocre contrast ratio.
