Special deal price, it is hard to find a 28" monitor for this price. Has two HDMI ports for great multimedia purposes.

What's the point of a 28" Full HD monitor?

What's the point of your question?

None.... Well, unless someone is far-sighted and cannot use a monitor at normal distance. But for normal people, If you want anything above 24", you'd want a 1440p monitor to keep up that pixel density.

When you want a big screen but don't have the cash or a powerful.enough computer to justify 1440p?

Perfectly acceptable for anyone with a PS4 Pro with games that supersample.

For sitting 7/6 as far away as you do, or for someone with only 6/7 as good eyesight; I think it works something like that!

Or if you want to push the monitor to the back of your desk and have more room in front of it for other stuff. Despite the aggressive complaining from people they don't suit, lower DPI screens are definitely of benefit in some circumstances.
Grey to grey is the typical transition a monitor performs (particularly in stuff like games and video where it matters). Pixels flashing from black to white and back again is atypical.
And the claimed response times bear little resemblance to reality, most LCDs are around 5-10ms at a reasonable level of overdrive when measured. If ghosting is important to you then you need to go by reviews, as the specs are meanginless.

Everyone's vision is different. Many people will benefit from a lower PPI monitor. Its really common in the Office environment to see monitors with a 75-90 PPI as they tend to comfortable for most people. Alongside the flicker free and low blue light it does appear this monitor is targeting the Office/Home Office user.
Its not going to be suitable for gamers with the bad response time. Nor is it going to be useful to video/image editing professionals.
The fact it also has a VA panel and is priced £139.98 makes it bargain. Already pointed out the deal to an older relative.
Voted Hot!

Wait, 5ms is a bad response time?

Nah not really.

Well, it's 5 times worse than a 1ms monitor and that's not a good thing if you wish to game on it. Having said that, it'll still be faster than a TV...

5ms is the Grey-to-Grey response time. The typical response time is listed in the full specs further down the page - 20ms.

Would this be suitable for me as a second monitor for my work laptop? Minaly office work such as working on word and excel docs?

Get a 23''-24'' IPS monitor for work related stuff.

QHD would scale the image better.
You could view 4x 720p streams simultaneously at native resolution or a single one at 2:1.
