I want to buy an Xbox one x and now I'm wondering if there are any limitations I need to take into account if I want to use those with a monitor instead of a TV. I would like to use the console for games as well as movies / series via Netflix and Blu-Ray.

Thanks for your answers, also the only readers are greeted, and have a nice day!

When gambling you have the monitor ONLY advantages but Netflix look unso is aufm monitor halt kagge, just have to look what you put more priority

Why exactly does this have disadvantages?

Yes, watching movies on a monitor is in my opinion not so cool, because this "cinema" feeling does not come across as logically a monitor is smaller than a TV

A normal monitor has no speakers installed in most cases.

You should therefore ensure adequate sound hardware and plug the audio output of the console there.

From stereo to 5.1 everything is possible.

Also a 2.1- / 3.1-Soundbar would be suitable.

Are there synonymous large monitors with good resolution?

For monitors you have to see if the first have a HDMI connection. Then you have to see what resolution the Munitor offers, and last you have to see if he has also installed speakers. I have this monitor for my One S: https://www.amazon.de/...078FBNSPK/

But because he has no speakers, I bought an adapter for it;

And last but not least, a Bluetooth box that serves as an improvised speaker:

If you are looking for a 4K monitor, then you need a monitor with HDMI connection, as well as with built-in speakers, because 4K capable VGA cable does not seem to exist 😕

Yes, of course, you have to decide for yourself, everyone has different ideas but yes, a large monitor is synonymous

Ap

If the X-Box outputs the signal via HDMI with HDCP encryption, a monitor will usually not display

By and large, you have only eig benefits, just stop it just because of the resolution, inch of the monitor, freesync and if you want hdr or not. I do not think it's important to have a loudspeaker on my monitor, because everything is on my headset. But also look for a good monitor. At 27 inches, mine is a bit too small for me.
