AOC Gaming C27G2ZE - 27 Inch FHD Curved Monitor, 240Hz, 0.5ms, VA, AMD FreeSync Premium, Low Input Lag (1920x1080 @240Hz, 300cd/m² HDMI/DP)

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.

Its very sturdy and has a great picture. its height adjustable so you can adjust it to your preference. works great and is great for gaming due to the 144 refresh rate!

Stunning picture quality. Great value and has all the bells and whistles for a great gaming experience.Massive upgrade from my standard office style monitor. Videos are crisp and vibrant with a decent HDR picture. The on screen menus and buttons are a bit lame but do the job.Works great with 100x100 vesa mount

Great picture, hilariously awful sound, honestly though, I didn’t even know it had speakers and they’d be better off not bothering with speakers and dropping the price another £10+. The OSD menu on the monitor is awful (adjusting settings on monitor) you need to download “G Menu” software on the manufacturer website, which allows you to control settings via app on PC. GMenu is much easier to use, but still not brilliant and doesn’t seem to allow setting a profile by HDMI socket, which is annoying, as it means the PC needs to be turned on to switch settings when using Xbox for instance, as the OSD menu doesn’t allow me to toggle between profiles, I think it’s meant to, but it doesn’t. However, all that said, I bought it for picture quality on budget 1080p gaming and it is fantastic on all games, the picture is undeniably excellent, at a great price.

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.

Great VA monitor. Picture looks good once you set it up. Got help from youtube to do that. Nice colours for a VA panel

I have to admit that I am a gamer that likes FPS games. I previously had a 32" Samsung 1440p G7, which was good, but this blows that out of the water.Being 27" means that it is smaller but surprisingly its not very noticeable. However I do miss it not being curved as a curved screen suits my eyes better as I also wear glasses. With this one being flat I need to sit straight on to get the best picture. But, being smaller also means it is crisper and the HDR is amazing. Bright whites, deep blacks and very vibrant colours. It has a very good refresh rate and also response time and when playing fast FPS game I dont notice any smearing or ghosting.My old Samsung was twice the price but only half as good as this one.Just be aware that the stands legs stick out quite a bit so if like me you have a large mouse mat it may be a problem.All in all I cant fault this monitor one bit and I'm very pleased I got it.

Bought this monitor for my partner while it was on offer but even if it wasn't I would buy it again fullprice as its worth it. The picture quality is really clear and detailed. There is no video lag or frame drops, functions really well no noticeable screen tearing. It's compatible with any console. Great for gaming! Brightness and height is adjustable as well as many other features. The price is brilliant for what you get, definitely will be getting myself one for my set up and recommending to friends and family.
