Best 27" 1080p display?

yonyz · Oct 22, 2013

Hi,

I'm shopping for a 27" 1080p monitor (1440p ones are out of my budget) with very accurate color reproduction.

The Dell U2740L does that, but it has a glossy screen, so I'm looking for alternatives.
I haven't found detailed reviews of the AOC and Viewsonic models, unfortunately, so I can't really know how accurate they are.

This isn't an IPS display, so it's irrelevant.

You could always get a Korean 1440p

Kanja007, is there a reason to prefer one over the other as far as the panel is considered, and are there any detailed reviews of these monitors so I can see how they perform once they're calibrated?

FlyingHelmth, I was very close to buying one but then I discovered that you can't calibrate them in-monitor (by controlling the RGB channels, brightness, contrast) so they're out of the question.

Wait a sec: I just read a review by PRAD of the QH270 and it does have an OSD with RGB sliders and all that good stuff, but the panel has very low contrast when you reduce the brightness to 40%, which is what I'm going to use.
Are there any other Korean screen with such an OSD?

Kanja007 · Oct 23, 2013

Nah there isn't any specific reason for preference. Asus & viewsonic both are actually very reliable when it comes to quality, that's why i suggested these two. BTW here are review if you're wondering. also you can find more if you google it.Watch videos on youtube to get an idea that how these perform.

Kanja007 :

Unfortunately these websites do not provide results of any serious measurements of the displays' capabilities, and I haven't found any serious website that reviewed these screens do I'll have to pass them.

Kanja007 · Oct 23, 2013

Well, there won't be any website which will show any certain type of benchmarks for display monitors. These are Monitors so all that matter is specs, Contrast ratio, Native resolution, Response time type, Response time and Integrated power supply(optional) etc etc. these are all provided so it's totally up to you which one you choose.
