Hello,
I would like a basic 24' monitor. And I was planning to spend about 150 EUR (130 GBP) but it can exceed that a bit if it is worth it.

80% of the use will be just as an extension to my laptop screen for coding and 20% probably watching some movies but no need for games in this one.

I don't care so much about VESA support, small bezels are more important.

Few candidates that I have seen so far are
LG 24MP58VQ-P, Samsung S24F356F and HP 24 er/es.

What is your opinion on those? Should I consider something else also?
Another thing is that I can not figure out in what the hp er and es models differ.
 
I was just checking also the LG 24MP68VQ. I found it 182 eur at amazon but is it worth the extra cost? It has the AMD FreeSync that I don't need for my use but if the image quality is way better it could be better for movies.
