Great gaming monitor, mediocre calibration OOB

on August 15, 2016

Posted by: Dimitri

Verified Purchase:Yes

Using this monitor is a pleasure: build quality is nice & aesthetics are miles ahead from the childish (in my opinion) "gaming" monitors from Asus, Acer and others. The USB 3.0 hub works great, and so does the headphone pass-through.

Gameplay is butter-smooth thanks to G-Sync and 144Hz. I personally find the 1440p PPI perfect for a 27in if you plan doing more than gaming on it. 4K just doesn't work yet with legacy UI.

In a nutshell this is a great monitor with two major shortfalls are the "Deep sleep" mode it often cannot be woken up from (on by default), and the mediocre to bad calibration from the factory.

This is a very bright LED panel and the factory settings have brightness pumped up too high, washing out blacks and killing contrast. Once you calibrate the monitor or at least tweak it manually, it is drastically improved. I bought this monitor to replace a U2711 IPS / 1440p 60Hz monitor and it holds its own pretty well color-wise when hardware calibrated. Viewing angles are nothing great, but to be honest if you sit in-front of the panel there are zero issues with it.

My Best Buy number: 3461970257

I would recommend this to a friend!
