  • There's no specification for lifetime of a monitor; I have ten year old monitors still working well. When it fails, take it to a repair ship and ask then to replace the capacitors.

CRT Monitors are susceptible to noticeable burn in whereas LED backlit monitors are far more resistant to such an effect. They are easily good for 5 to 7 years. I have a seven year old ThinkPad with LED monitor and it is a decent as new.

Any other LED monitor we have at clients is no older than the above and all of them are still good.

How long is a piece of string?

All electronics last until the day they fail.

It's a bell curve around MTTF [mean time to failure].
At one end is the device that's already dead on arrival. At the other is the machine that runs on for decades.
You will never know until the day arrives.
