Dell C1422H

The best overall monitor under £375

The Dell C1422H is our pick for the best monitor under £375, as it’s ideal for quickly adding a second screen to

your MacBook. The 14-inch screen size is certainly small, but it means this monitor can be carried around with you, and as it’s powered by the same USB-C cable it connects to your MacBook with, it means it’s quick and easy to set up, no matter where you are. In these days of hybrid working, this is a great tool that will keep you productive.

If a 14-inch monitor is too small for you, however, the 27-inch Acer K273 is an excellent choice, offering a larger screen and a good quality 1080p image. While screen quality isn’t quite as high as some of the more expensive devices out there, you’re getting a large screen that’s great for media. Both the AOC 24G2 and BenQ Zowie XL2411K also prove that you can get an excellent entertainment monitor on a budget.

The Dell C1422H is a great choice for MacBook owners, but if you have a desktop Mac, it won’t be quite as useful. Instead, consider the excellent Dell P2422HE, which offers excellent image quality on a comfortable 23.8inch screen. It also has excellent colour reproduction, and the USB-C connectivity is a massive boon for Macs.
