Even though we spend most of our time talking about Android and the mobile gadgets they power here on AC, there’s always something to be said about a great desktop setup. As someone who’s been working from home for just about two years, I’ve quickly learned that the perfect combo of monitors, desk, office chair, etc. can go a long way in making the 9-5 grind far more enjoyable.

James Falconer, an Android Central Community Manager, recently checked in with our members to see what kind of desktop setup they’re currently rocking. A lot of you have already chimed in, and these are just a few of the responses so far:

Current:
At work I have dual Dell 24″ @ 1920×1080 monitors.
At home I have an MSI Notebook w/15″ & a Samsung 32″ 1080P HD TV connected via HDMI (Don’t recall Rez. will update later) XBOX One & Direct TV controller are also connected to the 32″ TV
Ideal:
Work setup is fine.
Home – Would like to swap out the 32″ for a 42″ or larger.
