Big computer screen for little money? Experts say don't count on it


There's a huge choice of computer monitors available at a reasonable price. However, experts advise taking a closer look at the cheaper models before taking the plunge. — dpa

The ads make big promises, the selection is huge and the many technical abbreviations are overwhelming: It's easy to believe that there are some good computer monitors out there for US$100 (RM416.35).

But experts advise caution: "Various offer monitors that come in at just under US$100 (RM416.35), but in these cases there are clear sacrifices made when it comes to the equipment, connections and ergonomics," sayd Andreas Roth from the German-language display portal prad.de.
