Choosing the right monitor for those who work from home is believed to increase productivity and stay away from improper posture due to improper use of devices.
Check out the following tips:
Screen Size and Resolution
The first important step - determine the right screen size and resolution. A wider screen area to see and do more things is proven to increase productivity.
Screen size and resolution are closely related. With more pixels on every inch of the monitor, users will get a more realistic and sharp image.
A higher resolution is recommended for larger monitors. A 27-inch QHD screen (2560 x 1440), a 32 inch 4K (3840 x 2160) screen, and a 34-inch WQHD screen (3440 x 1440) are recommended.
Ergonomic and Welfare
According to research from Forrester, as many as 92% of employees believe that an ergonomically optimized monitor is important to increase their productivity.
Squinting at the screen or bending towards the monitor can cause poor posture, back problems, and tired eyes.
To help overcome these problems, it is very important to choose a versatile monitor whose height and tilt can be adjusted to ensure proper posture and parallel visibility.
Connectivity
Next, consider what devices will be connected to your new monitor and ensure the compatibility of all your laptop ports. Common ports on laptops today include HDMI, USB-C, and Thunderbolt 3.
You can reduce messy cables and neat work table settings with a USB-C monitor, which allows users to charge laptop batteries and transfer data, audio, and video signals from just one cable.
Energy Efficiency
Monitors that have low power consumption certification such as Energy Star or EPEAT can save an annual utility bill of up to USD52.
The advanced monitor also offers various features that can reduce power consumption by turning off the monitor or sleep mode after a period of inactivity.
Color
Coverage, accuracy, and color calibration are important factors to consider when buying a monitor for work in the creative field, such as photography and videography.
For jobs that prioritize colors, choose a monitor that not only provides a wider color gamut but also true color accuracy.
Collaboration
Monitors with cameras, microphones, and internal speakers are gaining in popularity as video teleconferencing frequencies increase. If your work involves video teleconferencing for most of the day, look for a monitor that includes these collaborative features.
