The VESA mount is a standard used by most manufacturers. A device that supports the VESA mount can be mounted on many different supports, from arms to wall mounts.

For example

A swivel stand allows you to adjust the position of the display left or right, so you can position it to the desired angle.

Best

Response time is how long it takes for a display to change the state of pixels, in order to show new content. The less time it takes to respond, the less likely it is to blur fast-changing images.

Best

The bigger the screen size is, the better the user experience.

IPS (In-Plane Switching) is a technology used for LCDs. It was designed to overcome the main limitations of normal TFTs TN-matrices: relatively slow response times, small viewing angles and low quality color reproduction. PLS (Plane to Line Switching) is a type of IPS screen developed by Samsung, which has increased brightness and lower production costs.

For example

The device has a display with three full subpixels per pixel, resulting in a sharp and crisp picture. Pixels in some displays (like AMOLED) share one subpixel to preserve space. This can result in a less crisp, slightly blurred image.

Best

Anti-glare helps to reduce the external reflections of light coming from outside the display.

Luminance is the intensity of light that a device emits.

Best

An ambient light sensor adjusts the luminance of the device according to the amount of natural light that surrounds it.

For example

Devices with a HDMI or mini HDMI port can transfer high definition video and audio to a display.

Devices that have a DVI connector (usually computers and notebooks) can be connected to the TV set.

VGA connector is a widespread connector and is found on many video cards, computer monitors, and some television sets.

A FireWire port allows fast transfers of big files such as HD movies. However, newer USB versions achieve a similar speed.

All DLNA certified products are compatible with one another. When different devices are connected to the same network, data can be transferred easily between them.

For example

The device has a standard memory slot (such as an SD or micro SD card slot) so that you can either extend the internal storage with affordable memory modules or you can retrieve data, such as photographs, easily from a memory card.

How much power the device consumes when it's switched on.

Best

How much power the device consumes when shut down but still plugged in.

Devices with stereo speakers deliver sound from independent channels on both left and right sides, creating a richer sound and a better experience.

For example

DTS Surround is a high-quality audio codec that supports up to six audio channels, with good bitrates and audio quality.

For example

If a device supports Dolby Digital Plus it can deliver up to fourteen different audio channels (sides) with improved bitrates, for a much better sound quality.

For example

With a search browser application you can surf the internet from your device.

For example

Dolby Virtual Speaker produces a surround sound experience over the stereo speakers.

For example

A child lock enables adults to prevent or restrict children’s use of the device.
