Highlighted rows are where the two monitors differ. The ▲ mark points to the better value where one can be named objectively; on fields like panel type or size there is no «better», it depends on what you want.
Size, resolution, panel, refresh rate and response time are each checked against the manufacturer's listing on Amazon.es. Anything we could not confirm shows as “—”: we would rather leave a gap than invent a figure.
