They also include consistent connectivity options, such as HDMI, DisplayPort, and USB ports, enabling versatile connectivity with various devices.

In terms of ergonomics, both monitors offer adjustable stands that allow users to tilt, swivel, and height-adjust the display to their preferred viewing position. This enhances comfort and reduces strain during long working hours.
