Where Have All the Small 4K Monitors Gone? 5 Reasons I Want One
1 min read
Summary
Small 4K monitors in the 21- to 24-inch range used to be readily available but have seemingly disappeared.
There is still consumer demand for these screens, owing to their sharper image quality, compact design and ergonomics, making them suitable for programming, design and limited workspace environments.
The probable reason for their lack of availability is not an inability to produce small 4K panels, but a lack of sufficient demand for standard 4K monitors with a small footprint.
Most consumers prefer displays that are good enough for general purposes, and don’t require higher pixel density for tasks like graphic design or video editing.
However, those who want smaller monitors with an impressive pixel density will need to turn to portable 4K monitors or opt for 1080p or QHD alternatives.
