Popular setups include a vertical monitor next to a horizontal monitor. More vertical space lets you read more without scrolling because the screen is vertical. Vertical monitors also can reduce eye strain, speeding up text writing, coding, processing, and reading.
Since you’re reading less, you can work longer without tiring your eyes. Many apps use only part of the horizontal screen, leaving space on the sides. So, the vertical monitors will maximise screen space. Here are the top 10 best vertical monitors in Malaysia in 2025.
Is A Vertical Monitor Worth It?
- Reading
Larger font sizes in portrait orientation make reading easier. It also shortens sentence line length, reducing eye movement and scrolling.
- Photo and video editing
It allows for more portrait-oriented photos and videos and more detailed editing. The bottom can manage files or watch tutorials, while the top can be edited.
- Gaming and streaming
Vertical gaming monitors prevent you from losing viewers or games due to poor communication, as you can read chats while playing. Put the game at the top and chat or stream at the bottom for maximum visibility and less strain.
