Hello everyone,
I want one small monitor about 12" to fit next to my 29" LG, just to play emulators on. 😊
What are decent models I should be looking for ? 😊

small trintitron
Sony 100es is 13 inches I think. I have one and it's a very decent.
Don't shy away from a good shadow mask though.
There used to be a lot of ex point-of-sale 10" VGA monitors around - some better than others. Did Sony ever make a 9-10" VGA monitor? I don't think I've ever seen one with an actual Sony brand on it. The only 9" Trinitron VGA monitor I remember at all was actually sold by Amstrad of all people to match their small form factor 386 and 486s.
If you are in Europe, get an Olivetti CDU 1458MS/HA71. They are 13", multiscan and have a .27 dot pitch. I own one and I plan to buy another one in the long term to keep as a spare monitor. It's probably one of the best small sized shadow mask CRT monitors I ever used so far. You can't beat Hantarex CRT tubes.
