Can also just buy an adapter.
I have a whole slew of them in my laptop bag.
USB-C to HDMI
USB-C to VGA
etc
etcThat's not a bad idea either, But Maybe I wanted a new monitor.

Well if the monitor is shit, then yeah - replace it.

What size?
I bought myself (well work did) for home working a cheap V7 24" monitor that has VGA, DVI, HDMI and DP on.
So there's plenty of choice out there as suitable replacements.Just sit down and look at say Ebuyer just so you can use the filters and see what's about

Just finished Moving from Windows 7 Desktop to Windows 10 Laptop as the daily driver at work.
only thing i'm missing is my second screen and that's cause I'm missing the HDMI port on the Monitors we have here.
My Boss is going to buy what ever screen I pick out, with that said, what are your suggestions for a new monitor that is compatible with HDMI? (Which should be any recently made monitor, right? )If going with a new monitor, I've always been partial to Dell 24" U2419H line. Nice color, crisp, clear.

@WrCombs Dell P2419H (or any other Dell P series)
Adjustable height and left-right rotation.
Very good stand.
Affordable price
You can even rotate it 90 degrees if you want "portrait" picture instead of "landscape" -

If a single monitor, I agree 27 or larger would be the way to go. I have had 2 or more monitors for so long, it slips my brain that many will probably have one. I have found that 24" monitors hit a sweet spot with 2 or more.

I'm likely to be sent home to work soon - I'm probably going to order a pair 27" for my home setup.. my current 19" are so tiny!

I'm working with a 32", 24" and 20" right now, and wish for 3 40" monitors with how much I tend to have going on.

I'd be hard pressed to not get https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Double-49-Inch-Monitor-LC49RG90SSNXZA/dp/B07L9HCJ2V if I were replacing my 2 Dell U2415 monitors, or something similar to the Samsung. My situation is a little different, too, since I could take my wife's pair of screens (also Dell U24s) and give her the ultrawide so I could have 4 monitors.

If buying new for myself, I'd likely go up to 32".

I paid ~$400 for the 32" HP 2560x1440 that I have. It's the sweet spot for my eyesight for size/resolution. I'd really like to pickup a couple of the 40" 4k screens MicroCenter has, but don't have the money to drop on a luxury like that.

Philips has nice 40-43" 4K screens (16:9) for very reasonable money, not for gaming but for office work. We have a couple of them. Two different models, one curved and one flat. I think the curved one has been discontinued. They where like $600 or so.
A monitor that size has roughly the same screen estate as four 1080p HD monitors in the 22-23" range.

Anyone else using virtual monitors on your 4k setups? I've been using DisplayFusion's Monitor Splitting feature for this.
I only have a single monitor ATM, but this allows me to split it so that it behave like I have more than one.

I used to do that with linux. I think it was called fake xinerama/xrandr. It's standard functionality in X windows.

Nah, it's not that bad
Two 27" monitors side by side requires more space but have actually less screen estate.
