I prefer gaming at a desk and being closer to the screen when console gaming.
Monitors seem more affordable than giant TV's.
Where can I get the best value, cheapest 4K, HDR monitor for my PS5?

Yes I'm not fussed about 2.1 connection.
Im just happy with 4K resolution. Is HDR worth it as well for PS5?
Thanks for the links.
Unfortunately those aren't as cheap as I was hoping. Was thinking more around $400.
Would this be suitable?

If that's the budget, maybe keep an eye out for another sale on the Dell S2721Q. In summary it is a 27", 4k, 60Hz, IPS in the mid $300's.
Make sure to read the comments on this post for some background.
You can get a Hisense 43inch 4K TV RRP $600
Even cheaper on sales.
Would bother paying $400 for a tiny 28inch monitorhttps://www.jbhifi.com.au/products/hisense-43s8-series-8-43-…
Don't bother with HDR
Why not?
if you can do what I did and find a cheap 40inch 4k 60 hz Korean monitor I say try that
might be hard to get or find but the price to value ratio is amazing

paid $420 AUD all up for mine $50 AUD was for postage ($370 + $50 = $420)
not sure if HDR but you don't need it imho like others have said
HDR for monitors typically isn't as great as it for TVs, most lack Dolby Vision, for example.
No such thing as an affordable 4k, let alone HDR (see real HDR) monitor.
Sony x9000h 55inch monitor for $1500.

HDR
HDMI 2.1
VRR
120HZ/4K
Built-in speakers
Local DimmingGood value for an all rounder.
Best 2k monitor I could find to pair up with my PS5 was Gigabyte g27q 144hz
https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Gigabyte-G27Q-27inch-144Hz-IPS-Q…Is it worth getting a 4K monitor with IPS?
Can you plug external speakers into a monitor that only has a headphones out sound connection ?
What's the best way to get sound out of a monitor when gaming on a console?
Food for thought:
The most notable thing from that second link is this: "…there currently aren’t any monitors with HDMI 2.1, so the most you’re going to be able to get is 4K/60FPS (or 1080p/1440p 120FPS)."
If you're not fussed about the real advantage of these consoles (120Hz VRR via HDMI 2.1) then look at those suggested in the article, or any cheap 4k monitor should be fine.
