How to choose a monitor?
Almost every resident of Russia identifies Xiaomi with high-quality, functional and at the same time reasonably priced smartphones, tablets and headphones.
But the company is developing successfully and not so long ago monitors designed to meet modern needs and existing technologies were included in the product line.
The main requirements for any monitor - including the Xiaomi monitor - are:
- device dimensions - a combination of the length, width, height and depth of the device, which determine the convenience of its placement on the desktop and the comfort of its use in everyday life;
- a sufficient number of various connectors (HDMI, DisplayPort and others) - not the most important indicator, which, however, minimizes the number of additional adapters, extension cords and wires with the necessary connectors;
- optional equipment - the presence and quality of built-in speakers, cameras, microphones, the convenience of managing them from the monitor body or through special software installed on the computer;
- monitor resolution combined with dpi - the higher these indicators, the more high-quality the image reflected by the monitor will be - today rare monitors have a resolution lower than 1920 × 1080;
- response time - almost all modern monitors have a good response time (5-7 ms), however, a lower response value can be very significant and even decisive, for example, when acquiring a game monitor;
- viewing angle - most modern monitors have good viewing angles of 178º or more - this indicator is most important if the monitor will be used to watch movies or the planned location of the device will not allow you to often rotate the screen to get a clearer picture, for example, if the monitor will be mounted on the wall;
- device brightness and contrast, high-quality color reproduction, and also - simplicity, comprehensibility and convenience of adjusting these indicators.

Customer reviews
The following are customer reviews of Xiaomi monitors:
Xiaomi Mi Surface Display 34 ″ Monitor
“Incredibly cool, widescreen, curved, good resolution.” But the picture is somehow not juicy, perhaps because of the matrix. It's like looking at the screen through a matte film. Compared to older monitors of smaller sizes - of course, heaven and earth: here is a completely different image quality and a huge variety of different colors. But if there is an opportunity - before buying, look at the live screen in the cabin, make sure that the picture completely suits you "
Xiaomi Mi Display 23.8 ″
“To be honest, I expected much less. Very stylish monitor for its price. A great option for working, watching videos. Good game graphics. The quality of the matrix a little disappointed, but for the money it has no alternative ”
