Mini-LED Monitors
Most high performance monitors are either 27” or 32”, with ASUS having the most Mini-LED models, but panel maker HKC has released a 27” Mini-LED monitor that will put price pressure on those that charge premium prices for Mini-LED monitors. HKC produces its own LCD displays and its self-developed Mini-LED backlights have now been qualified by OEMs, assemblers, TV brands, and others including Samsung, Foxconn and Konka. The company is expected to expand its Mini-LED production by building out enough capacity to give it the #3 market share. The table below shows some of the top Mini-LED Monitors and the specs that highlight each device. Some have lots of LEDs, some have lots of ‘zones’ for more exacting control, and some have high brightness or color coverage, but while the HKC Mini-LED monitor gets good marks for its comparable specs, it is considerably less expensive than most, and will open the Mini-LED market to a broader group of users who might have passed on alternative brands due to cost. The HKC units will become available in Hong Kong next month and are expected to expand to other cities by the end of the year. We note that there are other metrics that are involved in deciding absolute value of monitors, but all monitors included in the list below are considered the top or among the top few Mini-LED monitors currently available.
