Hexcal Monitor Arm – Premium Quality with Extras

The Hexcal monitor arm boasts a modern and sleek design which adds a touch of sophistication to any gaming setup. Constructed from high-quality materials, it immediately conveys robustness and durability, unlike our IKEA monitor arm which was already hanging crookedly on the first day. The Hexcal product is of first-class workmanship, with smooth joints and a stable base that securely holds even heavier monitors weighing up to 11 kg. The monitor in our test is an LG 27GP850P-B monitor.

Installation of the Hexcal monitor arm is straightforward and can be carried out by non-experts without any major difficulties. The tools supplied and clear instructions make the process easier. Once installed, the arm offers impressive flexibility. It can be swivelled, tilted and height-adjusted effortlessly, allowing the monitor to be set at the perfect angle and height for any sitting position. This adjustability is particularly beneficial for gamers who spend long hours in front of the screen and need a comfortable and ergonomic viewing angle.

Just bear in mind that the monitor arm with your monitor may not be very light. You should therefore get someone to help you if necessary to ensure that the installation goes smoothly. You should also bear in mind that not every surface is suitable for such a weight. A cheaper IKEA desk will have its flaws if so much weight presses against one spot. However, if you have a desk with a hole in the top, you can easily attach the Hexcal monitor arm using the enclosed part.

Another plus point is that the monitor arm does not touch our wall. Although this is not the case with our IKEA monitor arm, it is not really resilient. In comparison, we also have an Amazon Basic monitor arm, which is much more stable and flexible, but protrudes very far backwards. So the point goes to Hexcal here too.

The Hexcal Monitor Arm is compatible with a wide range of monitors, making it a versatile addition to almost any gaming setup. It supports various VESA mounting standards and can support a wide range of monitor sizes and weights without losing stability. The arm also offers an additional feature that we particularly like. This is the integrated cable duct, which hides everything perfectly. This adds to the aesthetics and prevents the messy tangle of cables that often plague gaming desks. As I have three monitors, I have to admit that I would prefer to have three of these arms, as my previous monitor arms also left a corresponding tangle of cables.

Hexcal Monitor Arm – One Step Ahead of Other Arms

A key aspect of the Hexcal monitor arm is its ergonomics. Thanks to the extensive customization options, users can adjust the monitor arm to exactly suit their needs. This reduces strain on the eyes, neck and shoulders, which is particularly important for gamers or those working from home. The ability to adjust the monitor arm effortlessly allows users to quickly switch between different viewing angles, whether for gaming or working.

Overall, this monitor arm fits seamlessly into any gaming setup. Integration into existing setups is easy, and the arm helps to utilise the available space more efficiently by allowing the monitor to float above the desk. This not only creates more space on the desk, but also makes everything look more organized.

In terms of value for money, the Hexcal Monitor Arm positions itself as an investment in the quality of the gaming experience. Its price reflects the high build quality, ergonomic benefits, and improved aesthetics. For gamers who take their comfort and health seriously, the Hexcal Monitor Arm represents a worthwhile long-term investment that has the potential to significantly improve the daily use of computers and gaming consoles.
