I don’t even need a monitor right now. Great breakdown on monitors! Just want to encourage you to keep it up! 👍
Yep. Second this.
Actually me too😊
Same! This dude is a gem! His videos are broken down so well. Very informative & explained in a way idiots like myself can understand.
same I don't need a monitor right now i have 2 monitors 1440p and 1080p, but I also have a tv plugged into my pc
Yeah I insta subscribed based on the first 10 seconds cuz of vibe. If I was rich id try to offer them hella money to fund them and then try and slowly take over the channel lol.
this guy literally just gives out the best explanation for anything
Script and voiceover is AI
@@R0b7Fr?? u put it in the ai detecting thing?
@@leonausingandroid5682 nah it’s just so obvious, the fact the voiceover can’t read “Hz” as Hertz, but instead says something different each time
@@R0b7 yeah i agree with the voice over being AI but the script..? entertainment is gonna be ruined by AI but damn education too
The fact that youtube knows m planning to buy a monitor and throws the best video it has to offer on my feed is amazing thanks
See, I think it’s terrifying.
@@fowchiiiliedpuppiesdied For real, I was thinking the same xD
Were you able to buy it?
@@ehmj2094 still looking but now m looking in the right directions with eyes open not just randomly gonna buy a big corved monitor cause its expensive haha and to buy a good one its hard to find here somwtimes...
Which monitor is it btw if you don't mind me asking?
How have I never heard of this channel before now? I love how everything is straight to the point and keeps my attention even during explanations. Very well put together I love it!
AI just getting started
Its because ChatGPT makes the scripts
the cringerious tech
Is acer monitor KA242y fits ryzen 7 5700g and asrock BB50m pro?
Yeah...my attention was keept in captivity under the whole duration of the video. thas wierd
He really goes straight to the point , very informative ! Excellent video.
Excellent video. Extremely informative while breaking it all down into bite size chunks based on panel type so anyone can understand and make an informative decision on a panel purchase based on their needs while also knowing what to look out for before buying. Thumbs up and subscribed.
This is the best explanation on monitors I have ever watched on KZhead. Straight to the point, covering the subject from many aspects... Thank you man. You have made my day!
i love how you structure the information and go straight to the point
As a 1st time pc builder this is probably going to be a video i refer to on my hunt for a monitor. Absolute great job on the explanation. Hope to see more.
Simple,clear and concise.Even youtube did not put ad in mid way in this video.Subscribed 👌
Excellent and informative video. Not just a selling promotion like most videos but actual explanations of important monitor specifications. Well done!
27" is good for gaming too. It ALL depends on the distance between you and the monitor. It's the same having a 27" at 70cm distance like a 24" at 40cm distance.
yes, but not for competitive games cause it's bigger and you have to look in a bigger distance and this is a disadvantage. also 27" is not good for all resolutions. it's good only for 1080p. for 1440p and 4k it's not the recommended. it's meh. it is usable but it's not the ideal. for 1440p the ideal size is 27" and for 4K 32" and above.
@@SapiaNt0mata27" is bad for 1080p
@@SapiaNt0mataI don't think you understand what he was saying about distance from the monitor, you do not have to move your eyes a longer distance if the monitor is further away I mean come on everyone knows that if you get closer to something it covers more of your view don't they?
@@2dividedby393 You don't understand it. The disadvantage that he was probably reffering to is that a greater distance you have to your monitor can cause a problem with noticing small details. That's why most pro gamers are glued to their screen. They want to be as close to the screen as possible but equally they want to see everything and not move eyes too much so choosing 27 is not an option. COMe ON every player who plays competitive knows that!!!!!!
@@SapiaNt0matawhere are you getting this from? Just making it up ?
I WISH EVERY EXPLANATION VIDEO WOULD BE LIKE THIS ONE!EASY,VERY UNDERSTANDABLE AND VIDEO WITH PICS AND ANIMATIONS IS CRAZY COOL!THNAK YOU BRO!!!
Theres a little mistake; a higher colour gamut doesn't necessarily mean higher colour accuracy. It CAN indeed reproduce the colour more accurately, but some might still need to be calibrated, especially lower budget monitor might come out of the factory with a colour shift toward either red, green or blue. Delta E is the measure used to represent the monitor's colour accuracy.
Indeed, higher color gamut means the monitor can reproduce more colors, it’s not a variable related to accuracy
@@valentinaman2257 As you said more colours only lead to finding the actual colour thats the closest and thus higher accuracy.
this dude is clearly just getting chat gpt to create all his content and then using ai voiceover to narrate it - and clearly doesn't fact check or review anything before posting (given away by 3,000,000 being pronounced 'three thousand, thousand' lmao
The way you break down info in these videos, it is SO easy to understand. Thank you! Subscribed! I hope to see more from you!
One of the best explanations I've seen! I'm starting to follow you right now! 💯
The whole pixel density vs. monitor size spiel is based on view distance. You don't want a monitor too close or else you suffer parallax issues (your left and right eyes see the monitor from sufficiently different angles to cause discomfort and dizziness). Otherwise, it's up to personal preference.
But I found myself unable to use a 27" w/ 1080p as is really blurry. So I usually suggest that starting from 27" up, the monitor should be at least 2K.
@marionpaolo319 1440p also works for 27 inch monitors
@@adviksingh6181 that's what he said 2k is 1440p😅
lol really? Because my viewing range historically been even 5 cm :D Now it's 40... though only because I evolved from 15" diagonals to 24"
@@ronjones3977 2k is roughly 2000 horizontal pixels so it's actually 1080p.
This is really sick content man. I really enjoyed it. I can't wait to check out what you have in store for us in the future! Your video has convinced me which monitors to buy for Black Friday / Cyber Monday in a few weeks!
One of the coolest tech vids I've seen... I like the mysteriousness. You brought some great insight in providing pros and cons with feedback on making the best decision. Appreciate the vid TMT!
surprisingly good content from a lower sub channel. informative, straight to the point, well spoken. mans going places
Very accurate information, no wasting time ❤
Excellent video. It's clean, concise, and simple with no flamboyant dialogue that other tech reviewing and information channels like to use (I'm looking at you LTT). This style of video is perfect for someone with ADHD like me who's easily distracted by the other stuff in a video and often has to rewatch a video a few times to actually understand what someone's saying because My eyes glaze over out of boredom. Good job, keep up the good work. 👍
I have ADHD as well and I did not understand why this video was one of the best videos I have ever seen. I watched the video to the end before, I looked at the timeline. Thanks for the Insight. @cyber_archngel573 and thank you for the video @themysterioustech; going to Subscribe now👍
How 'influencers' present information is different because they try to impress with jargon AND to get you to buy their sponsor product.
wow. one of the most useful information i've seen/learned in a long while. Thank you!
I haven't finished watching the video and I love it already, and I love the way you have been explaining everything. New sub here, I'm so glad that I clicked your video!
Dude! you do amazing videos! really loved that you always show an example on what you are talking about! superb presentation, I wish you all the best! After watching your vids I realized that I bought unsuitable laptop for my needs and of course a crappy monitor 🤣 Thank you! good staff 👌
I need a “watch before you get a girlfriend”
nah nah watch before you buy a girlfriend 👽
For testing purposes, you can rent a girlfriend.
1) Make sure that B#### is ready to fight her parents for you. 2) What else are you waiting for?
@@pryspI second this! But also if she's that crazy hold on for a good time
@@perseusbeatkraken To be honest, my B#### used to be this crazy, but what the hell? She is quite impatient. She quit fighting after 10 months. 💀
That was the best explanation for anything I have ever heard or seen. You got a new subscriber!
Oh my god, this video was EXCELLENT, so informative, everything I needed and wanted to know and brush up on, thank you so much! :)
Your information is so clear and crisp for beginners like me. I was considering buying a new laptop this Black Friday to finally replace my 2013 Max Air but your previous video put buying desktops as an option for me. This was perfectly detailed and I learned a lot. So lucky to have discovered your videos because this was exactly what I needed. How about making a video about PCs this time? This is also hugely essential to know for newbies like me too!
Good explanation No time wasted Informative Simple terminology Coherent
Best monitor description video I’ve seen so far. Thank you.
This is the second video I've watched in the series, they are both excellent. The explanation or breakdown of monitors is all you need when choosing a new monitor...
You are going to create a great channel if you continue like this. As a consumer it is also important to know the life cycle of the product. Two monitors might have the same specs but one of the two is cheaper bc it has a lower life cycle. Which actually makes it more expensive. But consumers are often not aware of that. keep it mind. just an advice
Exactly. Longevity. No-one discusses this unfortunately. A decade ago for an office, I bought a dozen different monitors but all were LG. They all died in under 4 years. I still use a NEC 17'' from 2001 for troubleshooting. How do we even address this? With SSDs and PSUs its easy (SLC and Gold 10 year standards respectively). But for monitors?
@@nikolaforzane2285 i wish business regulations would force companies to test and expose clearly the expected life cycle under "normal" use. Because it is a HUGE difference. After all the real cost is price per usage. Or price per time.
That's not exactly how it works. OLED monitors last much shorter than other types despite being much more expensive.
Customers must be aware of the real cost, which is Price per Life time use. And compare that wat whether the value added is worth the cost added.
I needed new monitors and found the ASUS TUF Gaming VG27AQ1A, and I'm very happy. It is so important to take note of the stuff you said. Also significant, IPS is the best decision for gamers because of fast movement in games. Here it is important to use correct settings in the monitor, you can make big mistakes, which leads to a lot of bad ratings on Amazon for example. I really need to say, the few videos you created are one of the best videos of all tech videos.
Excellent editing and presentation! You could literally talk about anything and make it sound interesting.
Just have saw 2 videos from you, I must say that’s it’s incredible learning how you explain it!!! Very good job! I don’t need anything but it’s so interesting how you explain stuff! Keep it up!
Very helpful, thank you for all the information. While searching for a new laptop, i also saw a different type of monitor, named OLED, could you do a video or a short about it ?
Hey there, great video! You don't really skip on anything!
I truly enjoyed the technical breakdown on the monitor types and the creative way you presented it. Keep up the good work.
The precise and valuable explanation. The explanation not just facts about monitors but also their practicality. This is actually what we all looking for. The best video so far! Keep it up!
This video is so informative and helpful.👍🏻 I would like to make a gentle request if you could make a video before buying a phone or a tablet? Tysm
Your videos are so informative 👌
thanks for going into great detail about each term, that helped me understand each part alot more. great video :)
This video helped me A LOT I was looking to get my first monitor but idk nothing about them, now I have a guide to what to look for for the use I want to give, to work with colors specifically. Thank you so much 🙏🏻💖
Very educational. Thank you.
Good info on a lot of aspects. I am kinda sad that you didn't say anything about IPS glow and backlight bleeding.
Incredible crunching skill of the essentials and put in an express package 📦 ❤ Thank you, MT. 👊
first time on this channel, and I'm subscribing. great content, solid advice. i enjoyed how thoroughly you went over the details and why they're important before summarizing at the end.
Congrats I saw you were at 1.8k yesterday and you jumped to pass 2k today , very informative and just what I needed.❤❤
10K right now. A million by next year.
22k now.
U mean subs or views? Cuz views now 259k
You should make a video about motherboards btw keep up the good work ❤
Great content my friend. You have a new subscriber. You will have a lot of sponsors in no time. Quality and passion for what one does, speak for themselves.
Your explanation was just perfect , you explained a lot of information, and yet it wasn't hard to retain.
Id like to see a video on accessories for laptops, how to connect them and if there are any problems. Things like speakers and mouses etc... To be fair a series on different accessories for laptops and pcs would be good. Could focus on mouses then game controllers ect...
Yes me too
Bro doesn't have any sponsors. So he revealed the matrix. 😐
Wow, this was so well explained! Liked and subbed. Keep up the good work!
So far one of the most in-depth info videos that I’ve watched and made me take a definitive decision on what to look after 🎉
One thing you didn't mention in panel types are the OLED monitors. I wish you elaborate on them.
I’ll give you a brief break down of the pros and cons OLED require less power to run versus leds because they aren’t backlit like leds They have great picture quality and contrast ratios They have great response times and are available in up to 240 hz They are available in up to 4k resolution But they have big disadvantages They have a much shorter life time compared to led screens They are less durable then leds water and humidity can damage them much easier They are very much more expensive then other monitors They typically have a low peak brightness so I don’t recommend them if your monitor will have other light on it like sunlight
@@ghostface0927 which is nice and all that but my point was that this KZheadr could've pointed that out in his video so anyone into OLED will know what they're getting themselves into. It's a shame he didn't mention it and so those ppl will tune into other KZhead channels.
@@Stronghero1770 so ppl who want to know about OLED will tune into another KZhead channel regardless if it's AI generated or not; it's the content that counts; not to say it/he did it poorly but missing the OLED part is gonna detract ppl who are considering OLED and want to know more about it.
@@ghostface0927☝️🤓 actually LCD/LED displays are more power efficient. Thousand of LEDs with 100% Efficiency and 7-9% Translucence vs millions of OLED with 20% Efficiency
@@ameserich interesting, I must’ve gotten my monitors confused with each other. Good to know
As someone who’s recently getting into pc gaming I’m completely baffled at the fact you’re not huge on KZhead already. I’ve watched a bunch of videos and none of them break things down as great as you do. This channel deserves to be way bigger than

Man his video is worth any other videos. 0 waste of time and straight to informative points. Thanks big time! Keep up such video
Awesome Mate
Ótimo video. Seria interessante, também, um video acerca de SSDs ou frequência de memória RAM.
Thank you so much for your simple way, explaining such an important topic, that I have tried figuring out for a long time.
Great video with a sastifiying voice and alot of great information which has responded many of my questions! :)
oled left the chat
And OLED Panels?
That's a great video and straight to the point! I love it! Please dont stop here.
Thanx mate, this was educational. Compact and to the point, as i like. Have a good one!
Am I the only one that feels like some parts of the video are ai generated?
Especially when he said “3 thousand thousand” in reference to the black and white ratio. And who calls Hz “haz”?
it definitely is. i wouldnt be surprised if the script was also AI written. only the dude in the camera with the mask is real and the editing is done.
Ya
@@Lenny-zn8hnyeah, ngl though, it is a good video
Is your voice AI generated? 😩
Yea it is.
Great job buddy. Keep up, liked the concept and breakdown of relevant information.
This video is awesome it gives the exact information needed and with simplicity excellent 👌🏻
The only legend that says that the dislike button also exists

Subbed. Your videos are very insightful and interesting without all the bs. Very newbie-friendly content
Been slowly building my dream set up and my next step was getting a good monitor! I really wasn't sure where to start and looking at articles n stuff just wasn't explaining it well enough so im incredibly glad I came across this video!! the examples you gave were so incredibly helpful as I'm a graphic designer and video editor and most of the time these kinds of videos are geared to gamers exclusively so this was a great insight!! thank you very much :D
I am so in love with your videos and hope for more, this is great content! I hope you get different sponsors soon as you make more videos, try strategize what you are going to share and plan so u get videos where can get more sponsors later and increase rep with more videos meanwhile. Rly nicely done 👍
