Dell SE2726H 27in FHD 144Hz at R1,797 suits home office users who want a bigger, smoother monitor for calls without paying for Mini-LED features they will barely notice. For video meetings, panel brightness zones matter far less than screen size, camera angle, room lighting, and having enough space for chat, slides, and notes.

Better value than Mini-LED for everyday calls

The Dell SE2726H 27in FHD 144Hz at R1,797 is the most sensible pick here if the desk can fit a 27-inch screen. The FHD resolution keeps text and meeting windows simple to manage, while the 144Hz refresh rate gives the desktop a smoother feel when scrolling calendars, documents, and browser tabs between meetings.

The Dell SE2426H 23.8in FHD at R1,532 is better for a tighter work surface where a large screen would sit too close to your face. Its 23.8-inch FHD panel is enough for a call window beside notes, and the lower price leaves more room in the setup budget for proper lighting or a clearer webcam.

South African home office and small-business desks

For a reception desk, admin counter, or home study used for Teams, the Dahua LM27 100Hz at R1,500 is a practical 27-inch option. The 100Hz spec is not the main reason to buy it, but it does make mouse movement and window switching feel more responsive than a very basic office display.

The MSI PRO MP275W at R1,850 also makes sense for a cleaner work desk where the screen will stay on through calls, spreadsheets, and browser work. At this price, it is easier to justify than paying extra for Mini-LED when the meeting feed itself is usually compressed and limited by the camera and connection.
