AOC Gaming Q27G2U - 27 inch QHD Monitor, 144Hz,1ms MPRT, VA,AMD FreeSync Premium, Height Adjust, USB Hub, Low input lag (2560x1440 @ 144Hz, 250cd/m², , HDMI/DP/USB 3.0)

Wow, blew my socks off!Managed to get this on Amazon renew for around £350. What a bargain that was!Incredible colours, incredible dark blacks, excellent quality and sharpness for the price. I upgraded from a BenQ Mobius 27” curved. While it’s a great monitor with fantastic speakers, I’d out grown it as I use my monitor for both work (MacBook) and high intensity games like CoD.I opted for the 32” IPA screen with adjustable stand. The IPA is much better for me, functions as a tv when I need it too as well. The input lag being so small on this monitor is definitely noticeable for me and is a vast improvement, no more issues with opps being able to shoot me before I even lift my gun lol.If you can pick this item up on Amazon Renew then it’s absolutely worth it, easy to set up, and just plug speakers in through the headphone jack. To clarify the model I got does not come with speakers so you do have to drop maybe £70 extra on decent ones. I went with the Anker speaker as I have their lower end model and sounds great.

Very happy with this monitor. HDR looks very good indeed and the screen is able to get very bright making HDR content really pop. As it’s a VA panel the blanks are inky blank too compared to the washed out blacks you’ll see on an LCD panel. Monitors far more expensive than this don’t have HDR or have a poor HDR implementation, so if you’re looking for a great value good performer that renders HDR content incredibly well, you can’t really go wrong here. Reading reviews about VA panels online, I was worried about the smearing effect but honestly, if you need a high performance camera to try and spot it, for any normal human eyes, you’re not going to notice it. I certainly have had no issues gaming on this and the high refresh rate will keep the pixel peeping idiots that need absolute perfection fairly happy I’m sure. Can’t comment on the speakers as I use separate speakers for my PC but I’d assume they’re fairly mediocre like most built in monitor speakers. I use a £30 Creative speaker setup which is more than enough for my needs. Also, the OSD when setting it up at first is a bit slow and fiddly but once it’s setup you don’t need to touch it again, so no big dramas there. Overall, an amazing monitor and for a price that can’t really be beaten given the HDR capabilities, nice resolution and inky blacks from the VA panel. As I say, for any normal human eyes I think you’ll be very pleased. Other reviewers seem to agree here as well it seems.**UPDATE** This monitor does not have any built in speakers. As metioned in my review, not a problem as I use a set of external speakers, and built in speakers would probably sound pretty poor anyway, but thought I'd update my review to highlight their absence on this monitor. Still a great screen though, and everything I mention above still stands. Recommended.

Perfect for what I needed it for. the IPS panel provides a clear 1920x1080 picture, includes a USB hub as the back which I have used to plug in my wireless dongles for my Mouse and Keyboard. I have been using this monitor for five years and I have had no issues. I paid a bit more a the time that the currently listed price but was 100% worth it. It was the best option I could find at the time price to spec and I plan to by a second one to replace my second monitor.

The media could not be loaded. The performance of the monitor is truly impressive, the colors are vibrant, the refresh rate is smooth, and it delivers an excellent experience whether you're gaming or watching movies. Honestly, I was blown away by how good it looks and feels during useHowever, the issue isn't with the monitor's performance or the brand, but it's with the specific unit I received. After almost a month of use, I noticed a dead pixel in the upper-right corner, It’s a small flaw, but noticeable once you see it!Aside from that, everything else has been perfect, and i’m very satisfied with the performance overall, but I’ll be returning it due to the defect. I might reorder another one because it really is a fantastic monitor when working properly

Nearly gave this 4 stars instead of 5. This is a good 4K monitor at a good price. The only gripes I have with it are minor and it would be a bit cruel to dock a whole star for them. I would rate it 4.5 stars if that was an option.So my gripes are. 1. The control button markings are not easily visible, so I have to remember which one is which. This is not an issue if you just set it up and leave it, but I have to switch inputs from time to time. 2. It is slow to lock on the signal from the graphics card on wake up from a power save. This is compared to my other three monitors.On the plus side. Colour reproduction is good and brightness is great. In fact I had to lower the brightness below 50% as it was too bright compared to my other monitors. One of which is an ASUS Pro Art.

Easy to put together and screen quality is amazing, really good monitor for the price!

I have to admit that I am a gamer that likes FPS games. I previously had a 32" Samsung 1440p G7, which was good, but this blows that out of the water.Being 27" means that it is smaller but surprisingly its not very noticeable. However I do miss it not being curved as a curved screen suits my eyes better as I also wear glasses. With this one being flat I need to sit straight on to get the best picture. But, being smaller also means it is crisper and the HDR is amazing. Bright whites, deep blacks and very vibrant colours. It has a very good refresh rate and also response time and when playing fast FPS game I dont notice any smearing or ghosting.My old Samsung was twice the price but only half as good as this one.Just be aware that the stands legs stick out quite a bit so if like me you have a large mouse mat it may be a problem.All in all I cant fault this monitor one bit and I'm very pleased I got it.
