Amazing monitor with excellent HDR capabilities
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.

Probably the best value for money 1440p screen!
This is a fantastic monitor that I've owned for over 8 months now. I absolutely recommend it for all types of PC/gaming content, I've used the hell out of it for all types of gaming as my primary display. The colour accuracy and refresh rate are excellent which makes playing games on it a pleasure, for the price I'm not sure you can get much better than this. I've played all kinds of games from FPS to MMOs and even hooked up my Switch 2 to it and everything just looks excellent and pops really well! I will say that I've barely used the HDR features as I find HDR on windows to be a complete pain to use so my primary mode has been SDR, though the few times I did use it for HDR it did look really good and the whites/blacks look amazing even on SDR. Though I do plan to upgrade, I will absolutely be keeping this as second monitor as it easily outmatches my current one even just for browsing or spreadsheets. This was the first 1440p screen I've owned and I could not have had a better experience with it.

AOC 27 inch monitor review
This is an excellent monitor. Screen is bright and sharp and colours are very good. Screen controls are on the bottom right hand side but I downloaded the I-menu so I could use the mouse to make adjustments. I have read some negative comments about the monitor stand but it seemed quite sturdy to me. There are HDMI and DisplayPort leads included. I have knocked off one star as the power lead only had a 2 pin plug , so I had to buy an adaptor to be able to use it

Best value monitor
Great monitor the picture is incredible and the refresh rate is life changing, the stand is alright but wobble if you have a wobble desk but on a solid desk it’s study. The 27 inch size is the perfect size for 1440p.

Incredible monitor for cost
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.

Low quality monitor.
Broke out of nowhere. Ive never dropped or hit the monitor. Very disappointing.

Very happy with this monitor
Great monitor for the price, 1440p at 240hz on an IPS is a SIGNIFICANT upgrade from my old 1080p at 144hz on a TN. The colours and brightness are a lot better, and my model has no issues with backlight bleed or ghosting. The box came with both a DP cable and an HDMI cable and was easy to set up. The stand is nothing special, but it holds the monitor fine, and I have had no issues with wobble or insecurity. Furthermore, the monitor is 100mm x 100mm VESA compatible, so you can use a monitor arm if the stand is not up to par with your setup. I would highly recommend this monitor, even at its standard price of 200 GBP; it would be great, but even better if you can get it on sale at 150 GBP. Both media and games look outstanding, and I have had no issues with it at all, 10/10

Fantastic Monitor!
Really happy with this monitor and fantastic step up from my old 1080p TN screen. Hdr looks fantastic on appropriate games that support this function. Some people have mentioned flickering which is a feature of these types of screens but I am very sensitive to this and don't really notice it. Occasionally it is present but not distracting for me. Just watch a few videos to make sure you set up the picture correctly and you will really enjoy this. Used mainly for gaming (single player type games where picture quality and immersion are key).

J’utilise cet écran AOC U27G4R 4K uniquement avec une PS5 Slim. Au premier allumage, l’image peut paraître un peu fade et délavée, surtout avec les réglages d’usine. Cela peut surprendre au début, mais après avoir pris le temps de faire un bon calibrage, le résultat devient vraiment excellent. 👉 Même en SDR, après calibrage, on obtient une image naturelle, lumineuse et bien contrastée. 👉 Sur la PS5, il faut activer la correction des couleurs (rouge/vert) et mettre le contraste au maximum pour obtenir le meilleur rendu. L’écran est 4K avec HDR 400. Clairement, le HDR reste de l’entrée de gamme, mais une fois bien réglé, le rendu est correct. 👉 Pour un prix d’environ 270 €, c’est un excellent rapport qualité-prix, surtout pour le gaming sur PS5. Je rejoins également un autre commentaire : les réglages des couleurs sont un peu difficiles à équilibrer au départ, mais une fois bien ajustés, l’image est très belle, idéale pour le jeu. 👉 Pour le reste, je n’ai rien à redire, tout est parfait.

It looks sharp and cool but the HDR isnt great and also apparently its not actually G-Sync compatible like the other AOC monitor

A 115€ in offerta PRIMA del black Friday è stato un affarone. Ottimo monitor "entry level" se sei in cerca di un monitor gaming veloce e di buona qualità video. Lo uso con una Xbox serie X e viaggia a 120hz in QHD senza il minimo problema. Per ora, soddisfatto.

Es un monitor con mucho brillo (es certificado hdr400) , y una resolución de pantalla muy buena. En mi opinión, es me ha encantado. La velocidad es super buena aunque no se puede colocar muy rápido porque hay artefactos. Es de 300 hz que es más que de sobra para mi rtx 4060, nada lo corre tan alto. Los altavoces son regulares pero igual es una ventaja que los tenga. En fin un super monitor calidad precio.
