How to read these numbers

Pick 1, best score for the price: Philips 27M2N3201PL, £100 at Amazon, on 06/11/2026. The median price of the 181 models on the list is £165.

How we choose
  • The picks combine a high rating and a price in line with the list: each one fits a way of spending, a use, or the brand that shows up most. The pros and cons come from each model’s spec sheet.
  • Stores: Amazon. We include stores we read every day through an open source or an affiliate program: the Radar collection, the Amazon catalog and the factory price database. A store that failed to load today is left out.
  • The same model in two stores is only merged with a catalog code, GTIN or the manufacturer’s full code. When in doubt, only one store is kept. A price far from the collected one (below 60% or above 150%) is left out.
  • Amazon appears without a price, only with the link: we don’t read Amazon prices in bulk.

How does the Radar choose the monitors on the "best score for the price" line?

From cheapest to most expensive, the monitor that has a higher spec score than all the cheaper ones in the segment makes the line. Anything that costs more and has an equal or lower score is left out. The line doesn’t say which monitor to buy: it only shows which ones don’t lose on both score and price at once.
