piXL 24″ LED IPS Dual Monitor Bundle Review
Peter Donnell / 3 years ago
A Closer Look
Let’s start with a single monitor, it’s certainly easier to handle. They’re lovely and compact, I haven’t seen a 24″ monitor in for review in… well, I honestly can’t remember. I only have one monitor this size myself, and it’s in my arcade cabinet, but at least due to that, this doesn’t seem too small to me. Albeit, my 32″ work monitors may disagree. However, for £100 each, give or take £10, the piXL CM24F32I looks really nice… REALLY nice.
The bezel is tiny, actually much smaller than I would have expected. This isn’t a cheap-looking monitor at all, it’s just that good quality compact monitors are fairly accessible these days, clearly. piXL isn’t some no-name brand either, I’ve played around with a bunch of them over the last few years, professionally and personally, and they’ve been great.
The piXL logo is in the bottom centre of the frame, nothing too over the top, and it looks presentable enough.
Some actual clicky buttons on the bottom edge, not those silly touch control ones, nice!
Much to my surprise, the monitor housing is really compact too. There’s a really slim frame/case on the top 2/3rd of the back.
Obviously, the lower section is a little thicker but still more compact than a lot of monitors I’ve ever seen. The stand mounts at a single point, allowing for tilting, but nothing complex about it really. If you want to rotate the monitor, well, you rotate the whole thing, stand and all. Basic, but hey, it’s a 24″ monitor, it’s not like you need help to move this unit; it’s like 5KG max. There is a VESA mount, though, so obviously you can add your own stand.
There’s some ventilation on the back too, they look like speakers, but honestly, it’s just for airflow.
