Do entry level monitors nowadays have HDMI port, on top of the VGA D-sub they used to have?

Or they're now mostly paired with HDMI+DisplayPort/DVI?

From what I see it's usually still VGA for the cheapest monitors, then HDMI and VGA for the midrange.

Cos VGA is still needed for backward compatibility and HDMI is for laptops and newer desktops.

DVI is usually adaptable to VGA on the output device so there's no need for DVI on the monitor.

Most has VGA, HDMI and Display Port. DVI rarely nowadays. Even board either is HDMI or Display Port or VGA or combination of either 2.

No business-grade monitor will ship without at least a VGA and HDMI port.

Only consumer trash monitors drop the VGA port.
