What Is A Monitor Arm?
A monitor arm helps support and elevate a computer monitor, laptop or tablet. This is an adjustable mounting system that is typically designed to allow flexible positioning of the monitor, providing a range of adjustments including height, angle, distance, and orientation (portrait or landscape).
Are Monitor Arms Worth It?
Using a monitor arm comes with a number of benefits:
1. Ergonomics: By having control over the exact positioning of your monitor, this can help reduce strain on the neck, back, and eyes, helping to improve your posture.
2. Desk Space: By lifting the monitor off the desk, this can help free up desk space meaning you'll have more room for desk accessories.
3. Flexibility: Easily adjust your monitor for different tasks, such as working, gaming, or watching videos.
4. Multiple Monitors: Supports setups with multiple monitors, which can help increase your productivity.
Can You Attach A Monitor Arm To Any Monitor?
Yes, most monitors can be mounted on a monitor arm. This is because most monitors and monitor arms use VESA (Video Electronics Standards Association), which is a specific hole pattern on the back of a monitor/mount.
