Monitor screen - benefits over a tablet or laptop or TV?

A few weeks ago I took my table to bed and binged a whole Netflix series over the course of a day. I loved it. All cosy in bed.

Since then I am thinking about getting a monitor for my room. Just something like an 18 inch monitor perhaps because I don't want a TV in my room.

I think it is something I would like. A bigger screen in my room but not a TV. Unless if it's such a thing a slim small TV that I can mount onto a clamp on my table.

How far away will you be putting the monitor, as 18 inches sounds quite small...

I would get a tv if you want to watch things - better screen, better interface with remote

there are incredibly thin tvs now and it’s Black Friday this week so a good time to buy

probably best if you buy in person curry’s or John Lewis would give you a good idea

Can you not just cast to a decent sized tv?

Just get a small smart tv and access Netflix from there?
