Make sense of the details
The 53.3 cm (21") display is specified at 1600 x 1200 pixels. Consider these together: a larger screen provides more physical space, while resolution determines the number of pixels available. Neither specification establishes brightness, colour accuracy or motion quality.
Compare the specification with your intended use and read the original reviews for performance, comfort, reliability and other qualities that a specification sheet cannot establish.
