Colour coverage (gamut)
Determines how accurately the monitor can display colours. sRGB is ideal for the web, movies or games. DCI-P3/Adobe RGB is appreciated by graphic designers or professionals at work. The higher the stated value, the better the monitor displays colours. Maximum brightness
The value given in nits or cd/m² determines the brightness of the monitor. A brightness of over 400 nits is crucial for HDR content and readability in sunlight, while standard office monitors are fine with values over 250. Refresh rate and response
The refresh rate (Hz) determines the number of frames displayed per second, so the higher the value, the smoother the picture and the less eye strain. A lower response time (ms) value eliminates motion blur. 144Hz+ is ideal for gaming, while values around 75Hz are suitable for office monitors.Specifications
