1080p 24" - 27" - 32"

[Kyatto]

Hi, i'm looking forward to buy a new monitor to replace my old HP 1600x900 and want something not only with higher resolution but also bigger (i like them big OwO) but stumbled upon a video made by a guy who claims that the bigger the monitor, the lower the image quality you get which makes total sense since it's in fact the same amount of pixels in a wider area but here comes the question:

 

How bad is image quality of 1080p in 27 and 32 monitors? (which are my main target right now) and also any recommendations and opinions are more than welcome.

 

The monitor i plan to buy: Dell P2717H

1920x1080p is a 24inch resolution then consider 2560x1080p 29 inch ultrawide, if you want to keep cheap as it gets, 27inch is a 2560x1440p resolution though... too much pixelation to be worth it.

Buying a monitor is own choise you can get like a ultra wide or 2x 27” or for smaller desk 2x 24” 32 is a little to big i think

It's personal preference, many people are perfectly fine with 1080p at larger screen sizes.

When watching videos or playing games you won't really notice it.

Text will just be slightly less sharp.

Actual "image quality" depends on the quality of the panel, but what you mean is pixelation. Larger pixels look less sharp when you are within the range to see them.

 

The actual question: how close are you sitting to the monitor? If you're over 4 feet away, you could get away with a 1080p/32 inch display. As a general rule, 1080p at 27inch is about as low as you want to go. 1080p at 24-27 inches; 1440p at 27-34 inches; 4K beyond 34 inches.

I use a 27" 1080p monitor from 2-3' away at most and I have to really lean in to start discerning individual pixels but YMMV.  Of course it's not as sharp as a higher resolution but i don't feel like it's especially blurry in everyday use and i don't see any, "screen door," effect.

I would say 27" is the maximum suitable size for 1080p. anything bigger than that will start to get blurry and annoying.

Thank you all guys, 27" 1080p  seems to be the way to go then.
