Having a next-gen console with all of its next-gen graphics features is only great if your monitor can display them. Hence, buying a new console doesn't stop at getting your hands on these in-demand items. You also have to purchase accessories, speakers, and most importantly, gaming monitors. And with how diverse the selection is in the monitor and TV market, it might be hard to find the perfect monitor for you. That's why Microsoft acknowledged 3 Premium Gaming Monitors that are certified for the Xbox Series X/S.
All of these three monitors are capable of bringing out the Xbox Series X/S's next-gen graphics. With the right HDR cable, these monitors are capable of outputting 4K resolution graphics at 120Hz. But that's just the start of the long list of features that will make you want to get them. Check out the rest of the features of these Gaming Monitors Designed for Xbox Displays.
