The 6 Best Gaming Monitors For PS4 - Winter 2020
Reviews

The Gigabyte Aorus AD27QD is the best gaming monitor for PS4 that we've tested so far. This is a 27 inch IPS monitor that delivers decent picture quality and HDR performance, along with low input lag and low response time, even when playing at 60Hz. Motion handling is truly the strength of this monitor, with a flicker-free backlight and an optional black frame insertion to further eliminate motion blur.

Of course, being an IPS panel, it does mean that dark room performance will suffer due to the mediocre contrast ratio and poor black uniformity. Our unit exhibited noticeable backlight bleeding and clouding throughout the screen. Gigabyte has provided an excellent selection of inputs to connect multiple devices, including a USB 3.0 hub. The stand does wobble a bit, but thankfully it has good ergonomics and can also be VESA mounted to save space.

Overall, this is a great gaming monitor that's a fantastic companion for your PS4. Its 4k resolution and FreeSync support means it's a good choice even if you upgrade to a PS4 Pro or expand your gaming to Xbox and PC as well.

If you have a PS4 Pro and want to take advantage of the higher resolution, the Dell U2718Q is the best 4k gaming monitor for PS4 Pro that we've tested to date. It's a great gaming monitor with wide viewing angles and an excellent stand that offers great ergonomics, including easy tilt and height adjustments. It sports thin bezels with a very premium and sleek looking design that feels quite well-built.

This monitor has great picture quality and while blacks will appear gray when used in a dark room, this is standard for monitors with IPS panels, and it still has better contrast than many other IPS monitors. While it supports HDR, unfortunately its lack of a wide color gamut and fairly low peak brightness means that HDR content won't pop as it should, and there's little benefit in using it in HDR mode.

This monitor is great for gaming thanks to its excellent native response time with very little motion blur, though unfortunately, the 60Hz refresh rate may disappoint some people. The U2718Q also doesn't support FreeSync or G-SYNC, though this won't matter as much if you only game on a PS4. Overall, this is a great 4k gaming monitor with wide viewing angles and minimal motion blur that will look great when paired with your PS4 Pro.

If you haven't upgraded to a PS4 Pro yet and want the best gaming monitor for an original PS4 or a PS4 Slim, check out the ASUS VG279Q. The 1080p resolution still delivers a decent picture quality with excellent color accuracy out of the box. Although the PS4 is limited to a 60Hz refresh rate, this monitor can go up to 144Hz and support FreeSync if you want to use your monitor on a gaming PC or Xbox One as well.

Response time and input lag are excellent, along with good viewing angles, great peak brightness, and good reflection handling, making it suitable for bright rooms. Unfortunately, this monitor only has one HDMI input, which may be a deal-breaker for some, especially if you have more than one console.

Overall, if you don't have a PS4 Pro and don't care about having 4k resolution, the Asus VG279Q is an excellent gaming monitor that offers outstanding motion handling, impressive viewing angles, and very low input lag.
