Dell monitors

6 models, $290–$2,400 · IPS

Ordered by pixels per degree at a 24-inch viewing distance, which puts the sharpest panel first regardless of how big it is. None of them has hardware that can produce an HDR image — every HDR badge in this lineup is an edge-lit panel accepting the signal.
