The 5 Best Gaming Monitors For PS4 - Winter 2022 Reviews

The best gaming monitor for PS4 that we've tested is the ViewSonic Elite XG270. It's a 27 inch monitor with a 1080p native resolution, so it's best for the original PS4, not the PS4 Pro. It's an excellent gaming monitor overall, with a fantastic response time at 60Hz, so motion looks clear with no overshoot and almost no noticeable blur behind fast-moving objects. It also has great low input lag at 60Hz, for a responsive gaming experience.

It supports HDR, which is supported on all PS4 models, but it can't get very bright in HDR, and it can just barely display a wide color gamut, so it doesn't add much. The IPS panel delivers wide viewing angles, great for co-op gaming, and visibility isn't an issue thanks to its great peak brightness in SDR and impressive reflection handling.

Sadly, it's not the best choice for a dark room, as it has a low contrast ratio and bad black uniformity, so blacks look grayish and uneven in a dark room. Despite these limitations, it's a very good monitor for most users.

The best monitor for PS4 Pro with a 4k resolution is the Dell S2721QS. It's a great gaming monitor with a good response time and excellent low input lag, ensuring a responsive gaming experience with little blur behind fast-moving objects. Its 27 inch, 4k screen delivers an incredibly sharp image and an immersive gaming experience, so you can see the finest details in your favorite games. Sadly, although it supports HDR, there's very little benefit, as it has low contrast and just okay peak brightness in HDR.

Visibility is good in bright rooms, with a great peak brightness in SDR and very good reflection handling. It also has wide viewing angles, making it a great choice for co-op gaming. It has good connectivity, with two HDMI ports and a DisplayPort input, so you can connect a few consoles and a PC if you choose. It also supports picture-in-picture and picture-by-picture, so you can display the input signal from two sources at once.

Note that there are much better gaming monitors available, but as the PS4 Pro is limited to 60Hz and doesn't support any advanced gaming features like FreeSync, they're not worth the extra price for most people. Overall, it's a great monitor for most uses, and it's the best 4k gaming monitor for PS4 Pro that we've tested.

The Acer Nitro XF243Y Pbmiiprx is the best monitor for PS4 in the budget category. It's an excellent gaming monitor with an exceptional response time at 60Hz, delivering extremely clear motion with almost no noticeable blur behind fast-moving objects and no overshoot with our recommended settings. It also has excellent low input lag at 60Hz, meaning you can respond quickly to the action on-screen.

It has wide viewing angles if you want to use it for co-op gaming, and it's easy to place in an ideal position thanks to the 360-degree swivel range. Sadly, it's limited to a 1080p resolution, so it's a better choice to use with the PS4 than the PS4 Pro. Although it's a smaller 24 inch screen, it delivers crisp images thanks to its high pixel density.

Unfortunately, it has a low contrast ratio that makes blacks look gray in the dark, and it can't display a wide color gamut, so it doesn't deliver the best HDR experience. If you want to use it in a well-lit room, it has high peak brightness and good reflection handling, so glare shouldn't be an issue. Overall, if you're on a budget, it's the best gaming monitor for PS4.
