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

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.

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.

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.

For example

Luminance is the intensity of light that a device emits.

Best

Number of colors that a display can accurately reproduce.

Best

Contrast ratio is the visual distance between the lightest and the darkest colors that may be reproduced on the display. A high contrast ratio is desired, resulting in richer dark colors and more distinctive color gradation.

Best

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

A properly calibrated screen represents colors as they are and i.e. you can conduct a photo shoot while verifying your photos in real time. An internal sensor and/or colorimeter is usually included for trouble-free calibration.

For example

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.

Ethernet is a local area network technology.

For example

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

Best

A front camera, also called secondary camera, can be used for video chats/selfies.

For example

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