THERE’S NOTHING LIKE a big monitor to make your PC look awesome, and this Prolite model from Iiyama does just that. Although not the biggest—there are 43inch screens and expansive ultrawides, if you really want to show off—a 32-inch screen looks more imposing than a 28inch model, and gives an appreciable increase in screen area, too.
Around the back of the Prolite are three inputs—USB-C, DisplayPort, and HDMI—and a USB hub that offers KVM capability. This means that you can have a desktop PC connected to the DisplayPort, a laptop on the USB-C, and maybe a streaming stick in the HDMI, making for a versatile screen that’s ideal if you’re limited to just this. A pair of 3W speakers and a headphone socket round out the audio capabilities, and the ability to control volume using the OSD controls is a nice touch.
