Monitor Viewing Angle Tester

Tilt your monitor left, right, up, and down while watching the patterns below. Color shift and contrast loss reveal your panel's true viewing angle performance.

Pattern
Now showingRadial Gradient

Radial Gradient

Animated sweep reveals color shift at off-center angles. Colors should stay vivid as you tilt.

Contrast Grid

High-contrast checker shows if dark areas wash out or bright areas bloom at wide angles.

Color Wheel

Pure hues should stay accurate. Hue shift at angles is a sign of a TN or low-quality VA panel.

Near-Black

Dark room test. All strips should stay visible. Crushed blacks at angles mean poor uniformity.

How to use

  • 1.Click Fullscreen for the most accurate result.
  • 2.Start with Radial Gradient: tilt your monitor slowly left and right.
  • 3.Watch if colors shift, wash out, or invert as the angle changes.
  • 4.Switch to Near-Black in a dim room to check dark uniformity at angles.
  • 5.Use ← → to cycle patterns with the keyboard.

Panel types compared

IPS: best viewing angles. Colors stay accurate up to 178 degrees. Slight glow at extreme angles.
VA: decent angles but blacks crush and colors shift noticeably past 45 degrees.
TN: worst viewing angles. Colors invert or wash out even at small tilts. Cheap panels only.
