PC monitor failing
My, current pc monitor has developed two vertical lines of dead pixels which is more annoying than anything, I can still use it ok, but for photo-editing it’s not so good.
Can anyone recommend the very best affordable monitor for photograph processing please.....
I have looked on Amazon at BENQ and DELL ULTRAPSHARP.....both mentioned in online reviews.....
All suggestions will be researched prior to me making up my mind.
Cheers!

Both Benq and Dell devices are well received it seems, personally I think Benq are a little high priced...I use a fairly high-spec Dell monitor and am well happy with it - so not having a Benq as well (obviously...) I can’t compare...!
There’s probably a host of technical reasons why one beats t’other...
We await more knowledgeable opinions..
My point being, I’m sure Dell units are pretty good too..

It depends on your budget. The Dell Ultrasharp seems to be a popular choice. A step up would be the BenQ monitors, then above that you've got NEC and Eizo. I've no idea what the current models are but I opted for a BenQ PT2700 27" monitor. I've had it for about 1.5 years and am very happy with it and can certainly recommend it. I'm pleased I spent a little more and went for BenQ over the cheaper (at that time) Dell monitors. But on the other side of the coin, I certainly don't regret not going up a price bracket into the realms of Eizo and NEC. The BenQ meets my needs perfectly and I'm 100% happy with it.
I use two monitors both Dell Ultrasharp. My previous monitor was also a Dell Ultrasharp (it did last 8-9 years before it was too difficult to calibrate). I am a very keen amateur producing many competition photographs and I have found the Dell Ultrasharp well up to the job. Yes you could spend 3-4 time as much for a specialist monitor but I am not convinced it would make a significant difference for me.
