In our mobile age, stationary noisy personal computers with large monitors are more and more beginning to resemble dinosaurs. Every year, the number of people who replace PCs with laptops, tablets, smartphones is growing, and there's nothing to be done about it. Therefore, some users believe that the monitor stand is a relic of the past, which in 5-10 years can only be seen in the museum. At the same time, the ergonomics, grace and practicality of modern models gives reason to believe that not everything is as simple as it seems at first glance.
Tabletop monitor stand: pros and cons
I don’t know about you, but I really don’t like the fact that the screen of a computer or laptop cannot be adjusted in height without improvised means. But much depends on the level of its vertical position, including vision. The screen should be located so that its upper edge is at eye level. In this case, the direction of view will be directed not strictly straight, but somewhat down. In this position, the eye muscles will get tired less, the surface of the eye is less open and it will be moisturized more often. Well, if the chair at the table is adjustable in height, and if not? If you tilt the screen, then over time the neck muscles begin to tire. In addition, do not forget that modern displays, depending on the viewing angle, can display colors differently. For some, this flaw may seem insignificant, but for those who work with design or graphics, the correct position of the screen directly affects the result. The monitor stand just allows you to eliminate all these troubles and set the monitor so that you can work as comfortably as possible. This is its main plus. The second advantage is to increase the usable area of the table. Using it is much easier to clean up the workplace and put all the little things in their places. A monitor stand may not be suitable in only two cases - if the color and design do not fit into the interior at all and if the monitor has a sufficiently large diagonal.
Wealth of choice
