Hello guys, I'm in need of buying a new monitor and have been doing some research about it. My budget is around 12-15k INR max and have found some models in the price range.

My primary usage is office work (word, excel wnd some proprietary softwares and web based applications) and watching movies/tv series. I don't play high end games. So I don't require high refresh rate. The things that I primarily look for are:

  • decent balance between colour and contrast
  • full HD (1920 x 1080)
  • 21.5 - 24 inch screen size
  • backlight bleeding as minimum as possible.
  • Good customer service.

Although I prefer VA over IPS for the contrast, IPS has it's advantages. Brandwise I prefer Samsung or LG as I heard they are better in customer service. Also I had an LG 15.6 inch HD monitor for over 8 years without any problem. These are the models I have come across that I feel good enough.

  1. LG 24 inch (60.4 cm) Gaming Monitor - 1ms, 75Hz, AMD Freesync, Full HD, IPS Panel with VGA, HDMI, Display Port, 24MP60G (Black), Small

  2. Lenovo L-Series 23.8" (60.5cm) FHD IPS Ultraslim Monitor | 16.7 Million Colors, 75Hz, AMD FreeSync, HDMI, VGA, Tilt, VESA Mount, TUV Eye Care, Smart Display Customization with Lenovo Artery - L24i-30

  3. LG 24 inch (60.4 cm) IPS Monitor - Full HD, with VGA, HDMI, Audio Out Ports, AMD Freesync, 75 Hz, Made in India - 24MP400 (Black)

  4. Dell E2420Dell E Series E2421HN 24-inch (60.96 cm) Screen Full HD (1080p) LED-Lit Monitor with IPS Panel, HDMI & VGA Port - E2421HN (Black)

  5. Dell E Series E2421HN 24-inch (60.96 cm) Screen Full HD (1080p) LED-Lit Monitor with IPS Panel, HDMI & VGA Port - E2421HN (Black)

  6. Acer Nitro VG240YB 23.8 inch Full HD IPS Monitor I AMD Radeon Freesync Technology I 1MS VRB I 75Hz Refresh I 2 x HDMI and 1 x VGA Ports

  7. BenQ GW2480 24-inch (60.5 cm) Eye Care Monitor, IPS Panel with VGA, HDMI, Audio in, Headphone Ports and in-Built Speakers, with Adaptive Brightness Technology - M353231 (Black)

  8. ViewSonic VA2418-SH 24 inch Full HD LED 1080p, Backlit IPS Panel Monitor, SuperClear IPS, HDMI & VGA Ports, Eye Care, Flicker-Free and Blue Light Filter

I am still not sure which one to go for as some of them are really good but have very low reviews or none and some of them seems good but I'm skeptical about customer service and longevity.

Thank you so much for your time and advice. Also if I missed out on something please feel free to share.
