I got a Philips Evnia 27M2N5500 for £143 last month and it only just came out. 1440p, 180Hz IPS. It's been fantastic, really happy with it for the price.
My brother recently bought a Philips Evnia 24" 165hz 1080p IPS monitor as well. It was the cheapest high refresh rate 1080p IPS monitor available. And it is great. It is called 24M1N3200ZS.
Have kept wondering about these Asrock monitors. Finally glad to not only see it here, but to be of higher quality than I thought based solely on its price!
There are lots of 1440p monitors going for around $160 - $180 these days, and most of them seem to use this same panel since they all have the same specs. It's a great time to buy a 1440p LCD. The Dell G2724D might be a better option overall despite the lower refresh rate since it has better response times (according to other reviewers) and it also seems to have a really good sRGB mode.
I just got a couple of Dell G2724D monitors for $180 on sale from $200. It's 1440p at 165hz. I mainly got it because it actually works with the PS5. Supports 1440p, 120hz AND VRR on PS5 due to VESA Adaptive Sync certification.
Got myself the same monitor a month ago as well, upgrading from a 10 year old 1080p 60fps monitor never felt so great! Love it to bits, also a size upgrade from 21.5" to 27" as well
@@shadow_force oh, if only it were that simple. just like how not all HDMI 2.1 displays support all the features of the 2.1 spec, not all HDMI 2.1 displays have the specific version of VRR that PS5 uses. the G2724D does, which is why I chose it over the competition (also with HDMI 2.1).
@@meatbunftw you got it all mixed up: whereas All HDMI2.1 displays support „HDMI forum VRR" of the PS5 only very few HDMI 2.0 (non 4K) Displays Like the Dell Support it. This makes the it so special! The Dell is only hdmi 2.0! 300% sure!
@@AEWD56 nope, the monitor is 2.1. And it's absolutely wrong to say that "all" HDMI 2.1 displays support HDMI forum VRR. While they might be capable of it, it's not a given that a display that has a 2.1 port will support that particular feature.
Hey Tim, could you please consider making the "more advanced calibration guide using Calman" you mentioned in the "How to calibrate your monitor" video on HUB? Thanks in advance!
When step 1 is "spend $2000 on a Calman license," it becomes obvious why this is a really niche guide he hasn't bothered to make yet. And unfortunately the home licenses only work on a small subset of televisions (not monitors).
@@konga382 I understand, if Tim says "Sorry, no plans", it is all good, but there seem to be no resources on calibrating or even at least checking the capabilities of any non-professional monitor for especially HDR (but SDR as well) using Calman or any other HDR calibration capable software (HDR calibration using DisplayCal seems almost impossible). While I get such video might not make the most sense from the ROI POV (fewer views), Tim seems to love monitors and making this Calman deep dive might give him a break from his monitor after monitor review cycle (which I am glad for, but I imagine can feel a little monotonous from time to time). I also agree the price is discouraging, but there are also.. other ways 🦜
The problem with high end IPS or mini-led is that they are so expensive you might as well get an OLED at this point… OLEDs will retain their value better and for HDR it’s way better than anything else
@@jonathansaindon788 I'm going to disagree entirely about OLED holding thir value. A burned in monitor has no value. When I buy a monitor, I expect to keep it for at least 5 years. I use it for work all day as well as play. I won't buy an OLED at all due to the likelihood of burn in during that timeframe.
@@TheTonVeronThat’s the exact reason I won’t consider one. I’m probably around 70/30 in terms of office/gaming usage and the negatives currently outweigh the positives for a primary office monitor. Text clarity is worse and the risk of burn in on a £1000 monitor is not worth it imo.
As European I guess these "jaw dropping" prices are all VAT excluded? We got this monitor here for 235€ and up (VAT included).... so roughly $260. Not THAT exciting.
been wondering about this as well. For instance I am from Sweden, and I was looking at the AOC Q27G3XMN, which is a "$280" monitor and that sounds like an incredible price. But it costs around 5000 SEK, which is $480, with 25% VAT included. However, if you remove VAT, this only goes down to $380. So yeah, the pricing is clearly incredibly region based, so I just try to look at what is cheap and look at reviews like these and go "okay its cheap but does it suck" :)
In any case, the European market is ABSOLUTELY NOT the same as the American market when it comes to tech. Literally over there they have discount codes on every tech item depending on the state they live in; like the latest LG 4k 240Hz here is 1300 euros, in the US those living in Boston could get it for 900$ ( I'm quoting Boston but in many other states you had 10 or 15% off all LG products ). In short, it's clear that here in Europe we don't have the same prices at all.
@AD-sg9tr Just as long as you remember in Boston a product advertised for $900 will cost you $956.34 once you add in sales tax. And that tax can vary by state, county and city. Europeans tend to compare their post tax prices to our pre tax prices.
Though a 165 Hz display, I think the $180 (with Amazon coupon) KTC H27T22 is a better option. The stand is less "gamer" looking and has a full range of adjustment. It also offers far more customization in the OSD, which is navigable through a directional toggle.
I wish MSI would just make MAG275QRF-QD (5 stands for being the fifth version model of that 27 inch QRF model with quantum dots). Yeah, I wanna know if the 0 inverse anti ghosting is still there and improved what's otherwise the perfect Goldilocks monitor
@@n0.nam358 MSI E2 then, it might be a different/worse panel but it's really close and the color accuracy is good albeit a little saturated but easily dialed back to normal. Great monitor, my mate has one. I think color accuracy is better than the AW3423DW, that's what he said anyway. I had a DW too, not too hard to beat though but you'd probably not care that much.
@@StevoHDA I was thinking about buying used QHD monitor for 1/2 of price but almost no good deals, new LG UltraGear 27GR75Q costs 50$ less then MSI MAG 274QRF-QD E2 that costs 285$ and AOC Q27G3XMN costs 415$.... Yeah...
It seems like the OFF for overdrive should be the low option, and a more aggressive overdrive get used for the ON position, or high. If only one option is able to be used, it may not be a great idea for them to go too much more aggressive, because I think the people going for a $185 1440p screen, won't be pushing the upper refresh rates in many games, so it's better that it looks good in the lower refresh ranges.
I was just about to buy this monitor, but now DELL went for a massive price cut for the AW2724DM (not to be confused with the Dell 2724D). Now I wonder. What´s the better choice? The AsRock PG27QFT2A for 180 USD or the AW2724DM for 290 USD (which was 380 USD before) ??
hey monitors unboxed. ii want to know when you guys will do the oled g6 and g8 reviews from samsung since they are a bit different from the others with the anti glare coatin, i would love to see a review of them and a battle between meybe the 4 1440p 27 inch qd oleds.
What’s your recommendations for the best IPS monitors around 500 or a bit less? Was looking at the QD OLED for like 800. Is the extra 300 actually worth the extra money?? Thanks
Is there any benefit to having a slower pixel response time at the low refresh rates? Sort of like how game devs enable motion blur to hide how un-smooth motion is, if pixels move slowly into their new positions it's effectively motion blur that disproportionately blurs fast-moving scenes or objects. Is there room for this to be subjectively preferred? Or is a very fast panel snapping to the new frame visuals instantly still preferable at say 60FPS? Thanks for the video, I'm highly considering picking one of these up, or any of your other recommended more expensive ones if they go on sale around this price.
First time i seen a QHD 180HZ IPS monitor with HDR certification that goes "beyond" the certified standard of Vesa HDR while costing below 200 USD , amazing, if it wasn't that i already have an 240hz QHD monitor , i already just bought this one instead
sacrifices contrast for those better response times instead, this asrock also in fact has a better panel.. but the LG tunes theirs better for high refresh gaming
I am hesitating between the Q27G3XMN (VA, 140 Hz, Great HDR) and the 27GR83Q/G274QPX (IPS, 240 HZ). Which should I choose to work from home + gaming (solo + competitive gaming)?
I was using the Asus PG279Q (the successor to yours I guess?) up until very recently and upgraded to the Gigabyte M27Q-X for higher refresh, and honestly it wasn't worth it aside from slightly better colors on the new monitor. I've got them side by side and they feel pretty much identical. I think those of us using older high-end (IPS) monitors are better off just going straight to OLED or simply sticking with what we have. There haven't really been many improvements to LCDs during all these years aside from higher refresh-rate. They are just cheaper now and that's about it.
@@Obscure19 Yes, I came to exact same thoughts you say here. Apart from higher refresh rates it seemed image quality has not improved much, and we need to wait for OLED. Now 480hz OLED in this size/qhd is coming later this year so that's a good point to upgrade.
Would have been a great deal for me.. But for me, I would prefer very color accurate monitor at this point... The Asrock is tempting, but then again, it's best to work logically here in terms of use case.
Man it's sad I can't find this at the great price your review was based on, on the upside there are enough great monitors and new ones coming out all the time that I feel the sale prices and used market are super strong right now, so it's not impossible to find a good one. But man, I might've gotten this one if the price was right.
Should I buy this monitor or it’d h27t22s I don’t care about the mount on which it it I will be using vesa mount and I also don’t care about build quality taking these into consideration which is the best they cost 25 dollar apart
The AOC Gaming Q27G4X has the same specs, it's 1440p, 180hz, gsync and freesync. Same button layout too but worse settings on the Asrock than the AOC. So I wonder if they're the same panel just with less options here? In any case it [ACO] is a whopping £40 cheaper than this Asrock monitor at £175 vs £220 for the Asrock. Recently got the AOC for a kids system, it's a really good monitor for the cost.
Can't find it for 179.99, but did find it is 199.99 on Dell's Website (as of 20AUG2024). It's not available on Amazon and Walmart has it listed at 362.99.
stupid question, is it worth buying high refresh monitor as your second monitor, ie not for gaming , only for web browsing/media? recently i got MSI G274QPF for stupid low price (160 euro, for comparison asrock from this video cost nearly twice as much here) is it waste using it as secondary monitor? my main monitor has very similar specs (Xiaomi Mi 2K Gaming Monitor 27") , but its just bit more premium ( freesync premium, colour depth, black colour) but MSI has some advantages too ( better OCD handling, stand is better)
If not for gaming one should focus on actual things that matter like color accuracy and contrast. Some monitors have non RGB pixel structure that can affect text clarity for example.
Hi can u make a review about this monitor Asus TUF Gaming VG27AQML1A and which one you think we should buy 1440p monitor, i watched almost all of your videos but i can't decide.
Meanwhile in my country converted price is 437 USD. Idk where you find prices at sub 200 USD , perhaps I should migrate to a low cost industry country.
Why can't mini led take off? It's more expensive for array section lighting but those fixed side/horizontally mounted led are just e-waste when the other layers of thr panels are just fine.
Can you review the samsung odyssey G6? The VA panel not the OLED one. Its cheaper than the G7 but has better brightness, smart features and better response time
I have this monitor! But the local dimming is kinda not very good since it’s extremely noticeable and there’s not setting for it to really turn it off or edit
Hello and well done for the reviews you guys are doing. Can you please review Samsung Odyssey G80SD LS32DG802SUXDU 32". I live in a place with lots of sun and it would be interesting to see your opinion. Thanks
I wouldn't even bother with "entry-level" these days. On a mature technology like IPS i expect a monitor to "do it all". I don't want to have high refresh rates and low response times at the cost of high color accuracy, or vice versa.
Who have ips TN OR Va really needs to try Oled.... i had those monitors now i have oled never go back.. Graphic Quality hours of gaming no vision problems, and ghosting 0 and overshoots.
@@evila9076 I agree with you, but it doesn't make it any better. 16:10 is better for work and multitasking, 21:9 is better for movies and TV series, and 4:3 is better for competitive gaming. 16:9 ratio is not an all-rounder; it's a forced standard, but it is worse than screen ratios mentioned above if you compare them in named tasks .
Please review the [insert brand] 27-1440-IPS-240 or the [insert brand] 32-4K-VA-60. No such monitors exist, but imagine a world in which monitor names actually reflect their key specs and nothing more.
The PG27QFT2A stands for Phantom gaming 27 inch QHD Flat panel model 2A not to be confused with the model 1B which I think is the same but with less features like a cheaper stand with no WiFi antenna
Can someone tell me how do monitors unboxed channel get the same desktop wallpapers on thier monitors reliably, I'm guessing they are using windows spotlight or some 3rd party app for wallpapers? or are they using pictures from their personal collection?
I hope someone sues manufacturers lying about HDR. They are causing damage to the market: a few people have told me that HDR is a "gimmick", and after some conversation I found out that it's because they have a fake HDR monitor or TV.
Hello guys, I would like to ask you for your help. I am trying to decide between 32 inch g65b for 350euros, 34 inch oled g8 for 710euros, and neo g8 for 880euros. One of my uscases for it would be as a smart tv in my room , when I am laying in bed. I am asking because one of my moreplayd games is valorant, which doesn't support 21by9, and i dont know how much worse 175Hz is in comparison to 240Hz. Thank you

I am hesitating between the Q27G3XMN (VA, 140 Hz, Great HDR) and the 27GR83Q/G274QPX (IPS, 240 HZ). Which should I choose to work from home + gaming (solo + competitive gaming)?
I’m still running the world’s first G-Sync 144hz monitor, Asus PG278Q from 2014. Time to upgrade? Would this actually be better?
I was using the Asus PG279Q (the successor to yours I guess?) up until very recently and upgraded to the Gigabyte M27Q-X for higher refresh, and honestly it wasn't worth it aside from slightly better colors on the new monitor. I've got them side by side and they feel pretty much identical.
I think those of us using older high-end (IPS) monitors are better off just going straight to OLED or simply sticking with what we have. There haven't really been many improvements to LCDs during all these years aside from higher refresh-rate. They are just cheaper now and that's about it.
@@Obscure19 Yes, I came to exact same thoughts you say here. Apart from higher refresh rates it seemed image quality has not improved much, and we need to wait for OLED. Now 480hz OLED in this size/qhd is coming later this year so that's a good point to upgrade.
Would have been a great deal for me.. But for me, I would prefer very color accurate monitor at this point... The Asrock is tempting, but then again, it's best to work logically here in terms of use case.
So, the antenna thing. There's a WiFi antenna built into the monitor arm?
Man it's sad I can't find this at the great price your review was based on, on the upside there are enough great monitors and new ones coming out all the time that I feel the sale prices and used market are super strong right now, so it's not impossible to find a good one. But man, I might've gotten this one if the price was right.
Should I buy this monitor or it’d h27t22s I don’t care about the mount on which it it I will be using vesa mount and I also don’t care about build quality taking these into consideration which is the best they cost 25 dollar apart
For an IPS panel and low price the Contrast ratio is great.
The AOC Gaming Q27G4X has the same specs, it's 1440p, 180hz, gsync and freesync. Same button layout too but worse settings on the Asrock than the AOC. So I wonder if they're the same panel just with less options here? In any case it [ACO] is a whopping £40 cheaper than this Asrock monitor at £175 vs £220 for the Asrock. Recently got the AOC for a kids system, it's a really good monitor for the cost.
Where is the dell g2724d review?
Dell’s G2724D offering is better than this one in America, only 179.99 as of time of writing
Yes, best budget 1440p monitor that doesn't feel like budget.
Can't find it for 179.99, but did find it is 199.99 on Dell's Website (as of 20AUG2024). It's not available on Amazon and Walmart has it listed at 362.99.
In what ways is it better?
@@lochlannach7 Response times aren't 8+MS, color accuracy rivals professional monitors according to RTings measurements (ignore their opinions though)
Would this be an upgrade over a Gigabyte M27Q ?
stupid question, is it worth buying high refresh monitor as your second monitor, ie not for gaming , only for web browsing/media? recently i got MSI G274QPF for stupid low price (160 euro, for comparison asrock from this video cost nearly twice as much here) is it waste using it as secondary monitor?
my main monitor has very similar specs (Xiaomi Mi 2K Gaming Monitor 27") , but its just bit more premium ( freesync premium, colour depth, black colour) but MSI has some advantages too ( better OCD handling, stand is better)
If not for gaming one should focus on actual things that matter like color accuracy and contrast. Some monitors have non RGB pixel structure that can affect text clarity for example.
Hello hardware unboxed. Can you review the only two ips 24inch 1440p monitors? One is the Aoc and the other is koorui.
Hi can u make a review about this monitor Asus TUF Gaming VG27AQML1A and which one you think we should buy 1440p monitor, i watched almost all of your videos but i can't decide.
Can you review XG27UCG? Would love to see response times on 320hz and the ufo test on ELMB sync and if it’s a worth feature
Shame that here in Poland for example it goes for 305$ cheapest
I take the HDR AOC Q27G3XMN for $100 more. I think it's worth it.
The AOC is a better monitor no?
good 1440p monitors become really cheap nowdays 😊
Currently waiting for your review on MAG 274QRF QD E2 the newer version of this as compared to ASUS ROG Strix XG27ACS
it is sold out in Canada
Meanwhile in my country converted price is 437 USD. Idk where you find prices at sub 200 USD , perhaps I should migrate to a low cost industry country.
Please do the best Gaming monitors with the best crosshairs
Tim, are we getting a PG27AQDP review soon ?
We need 4k mini led monitors now around 500.
Innocn 27M2V is under $500
@@YellowBoatGaming I’d like for it to be from a trusted brand or have a HUB review it, as there aren’t good reviews out there of it. Unless I’m wrong
Why can't mini led take off? It's more expensive for array section lighting but those fixed side/horizontally mounted led are just e-waste when the other layers of thr panels are just fine.
Can you check out the 24' Lg GS60F-B? Its the newest monitor from LG I'd really like to know how good the motion performance is.
Can you review the samsung odyssey G6? The VA panel not the OLED one. Its cheaper than the G7 but has better brightness, smart features and better response time
I have this monitor! But the local dimming is kinda not very good since it’s extremely noticeable and there’s not setting for it to really turn it off or edit
I'm really interested to see how well that WiFi antenna works! Would love to see some testing on that
Curious on how this budget monitor compare now to a flagship high end 1440p monitors 5+ years ago
Contrast seems to be the only redeeming value of this monitor.
I have the Asus ROG PG278QR 165Hz TN, I'm looking to upgrade, but I have no idea which monitor would be an upgrade.
Is it possible to make a new tier list to have them all compared each other?
Hi! Would you consider reviewing the new Asus XG32WCMS?
I have the curve one is been great
what happened to 290 being a really good price for a 240hz 1440p
Hello and well done for the reviews you guys are doing. Can you please review Samsung Odyssey G80SD LS32DG802SUXDU 32". I live in a place with lots of sun and it would be interesting to see your opinion. Thanks
I wouldn't even bother with "entry-level" these days.
On a mature technology like IPS i expect a monitor to "do it all". I don't want to have high refresh rates and low response times at the cost of high color accuracy, or vice versa.
Wish it was USD $185 in UK. Best price in UK is £230 (also USD $295).
Who have ips TN OR Va really needs to try Oled.... i had those monitors now i have oled never go back.. Graphic Quality hours of gaming no vision problems, and ghosting 0 and overshoots.
Can you make a review on the viewsonic vx2758a-2k-pro-3
Looks like a really good deal for the price
Finally not oled. Thank god
But still 16:9, ew 🤢
@@korosoid isn't that like 99% of the market?
@@evila9076 I agree with you, but it doesn't make it any better. 16:10 is better for work and multitasking, 21:9 is better for movies and TV series, and 4:3 is better for competitive gaming. 16:9 ratio is not an all-rounder; it's a forced standard, but it is worse than screen ratios mentioned above if you compare them in named tasks .
How about the Gigabyte GS27Q-X 27 1440p 240hz budget monitor? Please review it
I'M STILL WAITING FOR A REVIEW OF THE NEW SAMSUNG OLED MONITORS. G8 & G6
Hi, can u make new tier list for 1440p monitors please?
Are you going to review the new replacement model for the gigabyte m32q the gs32q?
Hows the headphone port?

Have u guys got Cooler Master Tempest GP27Q MiniLED Gaming Monitor on your radar yet, guys?
Can you review a Low Budget Monitor like the KTC H27S17 , HVA monitor for only about 170€ ?
Please review the [insert brand] 27-1440-IPS-240 or the [insert brand] 32-4K-VA-60. No such monitors exist, but imagine a world in which monitor names actually reflect their key specs and nothing more.
The PG27QFT2A stands for Phantom gaming 27 inch QHD Flat panel model 2A not to be confused with the model 1B which I think is the same but with less features like a cheaper stand with no WiFi antenna
Do a review on Viewsonic VX3219-2K-PRO-2
Will you guys look at the KTC 27GP6?
Can someone tell me how do monitors unboxed channel get the same desktop wallpapers on thier monitors reliably, I'm guessing they are using windows spotlight or some 3rd party app for wallpapers? or are they using pictures from their personal collection?
I hope someone sues manufacturers lying about HDR. They are causing damage to the market: a few people have told me that HDR is a "gimmick", and after some conversation I found out that it's because they have a fake HDR monitor or TV.
Here in Germany it's a little bit more expensive than a AOC Q27G4X, which I would currently prefer.
its 227 in Holland.
@@Starfishtroopers In Germany it starts at 235 Euros, while the AOC Q27G4X is avaible starting at 219 Euros.
Why asus ucdp not with the monitors lists (full hd 480hz oled mode )
what is the fastest 1440p monitor for ps5? Since it only does 120hz, no need to get anything higher. I just care about response times for fps.
Can you do the xaomi G pro 27i, hdr1000 certified similar to the aoc with more dimming zones
Hello guys, I would like to ask you for your help. I am trying to decide between 32 inch g65b for 350euros, 34 inch oled g8 for 710euros, and neo g8 for 880euros. One of my uscases for it would be as a smart tv in my room , when I am laying in bed. I am asking because one of my moreplayd games is valorant, which doesn't support 21by9, and i dont know how much worse 175Hz is in comparison to 240Hz.
Thank you
Is it Ips ?
