Compare monitors the way your eyes see them
Spec sheets list inches, resolution and hertz. How sharp an image looks depends on your viewing distance, and how sharp motion looks depends on how long each frame is held. These tools calculate both for your desk.

- Motion blur Is 144 or 240 Hz worth it? See side by side how much motion blurs at 60, 144, 240 and 480 Hz on IPS and OLED – even on a 60 Hz screen.
- Sharpness Calculate pixels per degree, PPI and field of view of your monitor. Above about 60 PPD, an eye with normal vision no longer resolves single pixels.
- Viewing distance Find the right monitor size for your viewing distance – calculated from field of view and sharpness.
