07:30 Great! Thank you! You're the only one I found (for now) who has mentioned a dimension of the base real estate. At 182mm deep (and I assume width is about 5-10cm more), it's perfect for my new monitor stand (from Temu -- 200mm deep (minus about 5mm for the back "wall"))
The monitor is available in North America, but not Europe at time of review. I actually purchased this one myself (for the review) via Amazon .com with shipping to UK and even with import duties, tax etc. it remained a reasonable price. The only thing I’d say is that the ‘power brick’ is built into the mains plug end and obviously you’ll need a US to UK adaptor as well. So it becomes quite a chunky connection at the mains end.
Very nice eview (greetings from Greece), I would love to show us how it performs on linux because more and more users prefer linux nowdays. If it works on linux it could work on macos too.
Sorry but Linux isn't something I have experience with and remains a very niche market. Testing with multiple OSes would also be too time consuming with the depth at which I review.
@@PCMonitors Sorry illumos variants or bsd variants, or maybe haiku are niche. Linux and macos are not niche they are quite popular. And on the other hand it's not that hard. Just check if it works. Because people on a budget are targeting this monitor and linux might be their os or just use it along windows just for work. This is just my two cents comment though! Thanks...
@@RHTORAS Linux has ~4-5% market share. I'm not testing it as I don't use it myself and whichever way you cut it, it has a tiny market share compared to Windows. It is by definition niche. Budget monitors are also a tiny focus of what I look at when reviewing as they are not particularly interesting to me or a lucrative part of the market. Just injecting some realism into things here - testing with Linux isn't going to happen on my end as it isn't interesting to me or worth my time. : )
Hey, I was wondering as a monitor reviewer- what does one mean when they say that a monitor is light weight? Does it mean that it's hollow inside and cheap in quality and could easily break with time? I was looking at a review of the AOC 24G2 and the person reviewing it said that it was light compared to other monitors in the same price range, so that got me thinking if it means that it's low quality and I've got to be honest that's one of the factors that's been bugging me when I think about considering the monitor for purchase. Hope you can help answer this question.
It depends on the reviewer, but when I say that I mean it literally. It doesn't weigh a lot and yes that could point towards what you call "cheap" quality. I wouldn't expect it to break easily unless you're into treating your monitor oddly roughly, it doesn't quite feel like a cheap toy or anything.
LOL I thought I was tripping because it seemed like my screen was randomly getting brighter. Then I realized he's using a widow for natural light and it keeps getting brighter and darker. I just ordered this monitor to replace my current 16" in my travel setup. Now I can game on a 24" QHD in my hotel rooms! Can you please explain what the size of the vesa is? is it 75x75?
It's not the window, it's the automatic exposure of the camera (which is pretty much essential when filming a monitor, for practical purposes). Per the review it's 100 x 100mm VESA. 8:05
Hi, Thanks for the review. i have a question, if a bought this 2k monitor can i make that taskbar and apps and dialoges bigger without making the app blurry? i have a laptop with 1080p screen and some old apps looks blurry and the only way to fix them is to app propreties then advanced then override dpi or whatever its called and this makes the apps have smaller scale and the fix blurry apps option in windows 10 settings doesnt do anything is this because i have bad intergrated gpu?
@unknown2023.5 You use scaling and as pointed out in the review that works well. It doesn't make things "blurry" unless you're observing elements that scale incorrectly. That could include old apps of course, it's up to the developers to ensure they scale appropriately. P.S. Nothing personal and common mistake, but please avoid using the term "2K" to describe the 2560 x 1440 resolution as it's inaccurate - forum.pcmonitors.info/topic/sacrificing-refresh-rate-for-resolution/#post-53418
Would love to see a review of the AOC 24G15N, AOC 24G4, and TUF Gaming VG249Q3A. I've been eyeing these monitors to see which one I'll buy and wondering if all of these monitors have a native 180 Hz refresh rate.

Ayer lo compré, buen precio. Se me dañó mi viejo tv Phillips de 17 pulgadas. Duró 13 años, siempre lo usé como monitor.
It would be great to see a review about the KTC H25T7. 180Hz, 8 bit, 350cd/m², FreeSync Premium, hdr10. ~$110
yes please!
