  • Great graphics and price, set up depends ..... 4.9 stars
Style: 27" 165Hz FreeSync Premium HDR
I picked these 27 inch monitors up for about $166 each. Love the picture quality, but takes quite a longer for these to "boot up" than my older HP and LG monitors. My HP turned on as soon as my computer was powered on while the LG took about 5 seconds, these take around 20. I understand this is due to the type and quality of the displays, which are way superior to either of my older monitors, but it seems my system takes longer to get to the desktop with these monitors and that is a bit frustrating. However, having two matching monitors with awesome graphics, colors, and refresh rates is worth the wait. Both my older monitors ran at 60hz whereas these run at 165hz. My Hp was DVI and my LG HDMI, these run DP. I wonder if this could account for the longer load time? IDK. Next, the controls are on the back of the right edge of the monitor, which is cool, kind of. They are large so easy to get to and use, however, running 2 monitors butted up against each other makes it difficult to get to the controls of the left monitor. Which means you have to move the monitor to adjust it then you get to mess with the alignment of both monitors to get the screens realigned...... which is a real chore because.... These monitors are hyper positional. They rotate, tilt, swivel, go up and down, pretty much any position or angle you want with great ease, which is great for getting them just right...... but can be a booger when trying to get two of them perfectly aligned. But once you get the set up perfect, they are sleek, sexy, and have gorgeous graphics, perfect in every way......... until you need to adjust the controls on that left monitor again..... All in all, great monitors for a great price would highly recommend. Just understand that setting up a dual, or more, monitor system can take extra time. But it is worth it in the end. ... show more

  • Great Monitor, a bit thick and wobbly
Style: 25" 180Hz FreeSync FHD 1ms
Everything was as advertised, it looks and works great. My only complaints are that there is no height adjustment option, and it is very thick, which is strange to see nowadays. The speakers are also terrible but I don't mind because I use headphones. It also wobbles quite a bit. Regardless of my complaints, the monitor is still great and the settings are nice. ... show more
