digital screen

Pixel-based viewing surface

A digital screen is a display that renders images using electronic signals—the screens on phones, computers, televisions, and tablets.

The term distinguishes these from older analog displays or non-electronic surfaces.

Kids spend too much time staring at digital screens.

Often shortened to just screen in context.
