can you find a monitor that is better than this one at a similar price and size?

 

and can anyone confirm if this monitor is actually "borderless"?

Probably not if you didn't want a smaller monitor nor a larger bezel.

It will most likely have borders, in that the the pixels will not go to the edge. The whole panel is covered by one big piece of whatever-it-is. 

According to the Amazon page, it has a 2mm border. It's pretty small, but not completely borderless. Scroll down to see what the monitor looks like on.

All monitors that claim to be "borderless" should say bezelless. It has a border where there's no longer pixels, there just isn't bezel, it' just black.

There are a lot of naysayers about the faux-border look but I love it. I was never into tacky, chunky plastic crap on my monitor.

As others have said, it is not as thin as it looks bezel-wise. Here's a decent shot of what it actually looks like:

It still looks nice in person though, just not as small of a bezel as they make you believe.

i believe the quotation marks means he undestands that nothing can be truly borderless

He asked a question that could've been answered by scrolling down the Amazon page...

I answered anyways.
