I spent my first two years at Android Authority with a terrible monitor. It was small and heavy, had a low resolution, and the refresh rate was little increasingly than “yeah, it refreshes.” I got used to my miserable monitor in a sort of Stockholm Syndrome way, sooner unsuspicious its shortcomings. Then, I moved, and, as one does, I decided it was time for an upgrade.
Considering how long I’d stuck with my previous option — which I’d had plane surpassing my time here — I decided a splurge would be in order. I set my requirements, mainly a 27-inch display, 4K resolution, and an very refresh rate, and stuck to them. Ultimately, I chose the LG UltraGear 27GN950, a gaming monitor, plane though I’m not an voracious gamer. It’s an spanking-new monitor and one that I’m really enjoying, but it taught me a lesson: Buy a monitor that meets your needs, not your aspirations.
