Monitor with 220 pixels

[100Yen]

Hi guys, any recommendation for monitor with 220 pixel per inch? Using it mainly for music, anime and occasionally gaming like skyrim etc

Only find imac 21.5 and 27 which fit the criteria. Wanted 220 pixels for good image quality.

How far away are you going to view your monitor from? Smartphones/tablets displays need high ppi to achieve retina quality image in close proximity (~20cm). Monitor viewing distances are usually much greater (70-90cm). Hence, still achieve 'retina' image quality with lower ppi at greater distance. Apple is the way to go if you want such high ppi display...

Sitting at an appropriate distance is also important. The U.S. Occupational Safety & Health Administration recommends office workers sit at least 20 inches away from any computer display. Leaning closer to better see small text is a natural instinct, but it’s also counter-productive because the human eye must work hard to bring objects that close into focus.

28 inches is the sweet spot

While 4K has no inherit health complications, users may have more trouble adjusting to it with some monitors than others. That’s because 4K, which is shorthand for 3,840 x 2,160 resolution, is used in displays of various sizes. The pixel count always remains the same, but a 28-inch monitor won’t be a dense as a 24-inch screen. Each pixel will be larger, that means less scaling is required to make text readable.

The difference is noticeable. A 24-inch 4K display offers 183 pixels per inch, but a 28-inch 4K monitor has just 157 pixels per inch. This means each pixel on the 28-inch monitor is about 15 percent larger than on the 24-inch screen and, as a result, text and images will naturally appear 15 percent larger as well. That’s like switching from a 12-point to a 16-point font.

Thanks pretty informative. 220 pixels per inch is the magical number for all iMac. Knowing apple, i believe that's the optimal quantity of pixel for image quality. So i wanted to get a monitor of at least that much pixel that's not apple.

Still prefers my windows

And from the same article:

Dr. Bryan W. Jones, a retinal neuroscientist at the University of Utah, conducted one such analysis. He concluded a person with 20/20 vision couldn’t discern more than 287 pixels per inch at a distance of 12 inches. If the same person were to instead view a display from 24 inches (a more typical distance for desktop use) the maximum discernible density drops to just below 150 PPI.

Hence, a Dell P2415Q 24" 4K display should suffice your requirement very well.... CEE and PC Show coming soon so you can look out for great deals during those weekends.
