Own a PS4 Pro, but do not own a 4K TV or monitor. Currently only using a cheap 27" 1080p monitor.
Is it wise to buy a 4K monitor and pair it with my PS4 Pro, instead of a 4K TV? Reason to prefer a monitor than a TV is because of size. For 4K monitor, 24" to 28" available. But for 4K TV, minimum size is 43", which is very big and not practical to be put on table, sit near and use as a monitor.
Anyone faced this dilemma before or perhaps can give some idea?

there's hardly any ghosting to speak of when jumping to a high end monitor-4k or otherwise.
but if you're not looking to play a game competitively, there's hardly any reason to go for a monitor; at least IMO.
at home I'm using a 55"KS7000, which I'm sitting about 2 feet away. the size takes a little bit of an adjustment, coming from a 50"W800b, but feels just right after a day or two of gaming.
back in my hometown, i recently bought a "gaming" monitor which is fairly low end, but still something alot of "pro gamers" claim is better than a TV.
I'm not impressed.
Something about having the size of the screen vs a 27" monitor...it just doesn't compare.
anyway, as others have mentioned; if you're going to upgrade, be sure it's HDR enabled. don't just look at the resolution of the screen.
There's a reason Sony pushed HDR instead of 4K when announcing the PS4Pro.

Even though im using the slim version, plugging the console on a monitor feels more laggy compared to tv. Maybe because of the distance. Sit near, our eyes can 'feel' the framerate...
I find this very odd.On my monitor I had to bump up my control sensitivity up 2 notches-from medium to very high before i can feel as comfortable on the monitor as I am with my TV.
no idea why..it has nothing to do with the frame rate either, the controls just feel way more responsive on my TV.
