HP 27-inch QHD Gaming with Tilt/Height Adjustment with AMD FreeSync Premium Technology (X27q, 2021 model)

The Hp x27q Gaming monitor is solid built, beautifully designed monitor that delivers a crisp picture. I like the size, at a 27” diameter, as it allows me to observe the entire field of play that is presented without having to physically move my neck and minimizes the movement in my eyes. The picture is very clear and response time are very fast at 1 ms. Im no longer at a disadvantage when competing online. Its also a great monitor to do general computing chores, such as web browsing, movies, productivity apps, etc. But it really excels as a gaming peripheral. I also found the viewing options such as tilting, rotating and pivoting to be quite helpful (for example when viewing documents that are portrait oriented and then viewing power point presentations or videos which tend to have a landscape orientation. I cant think of anything I didnt like about the monitor. It suits my need as a gamer quite well.

The HP X27q Gaming Monitor has already been a game changer. Going from a 21-inch 1080p(FHD)/60hz to a 27-inch 1440p(QHD)/165hz is amazing. Not only I’m getting more screen space due to higher pixel count but its significantly smoother. The IPS panel with HDR also makes this screen much brighter and more color accurate. The overall look of this monitor is premium with super slim bezels and good adjustment options for height and tilt. The size and viewing angles allow me to use it as a TV sometimes when watching streaming content. I gamed a few times so far and its far more responsive than my previous monitor. Great buy and value for the premium feature set. For gaming, 1440p is a sweat spot as it allows more FPS then going with 4k which would be far more resource hungry and personally at 27-inch your eyes would not notice much difference in detail. Be sure that your PC has a newer HDMI or DP versions to ensure you can use the 144/165hz modes.

You arent going to get a better monitor without spending double. There are cheaper monitors on the market, but they tend to have really dim light and poor color quality. This monitor is very bright, smooth, and has amazing color quality. It has some small backlight bleed, but it isnt much and of course you arent going to get rid of it with out spending at least double. Dont buy something cheaper, wait a while and get this one!

10/10!!!

Purchased the monitor at a great discount due to being a 2021 model. Very happy with purchase. Now the true test is beginning ... how long will it function like new?

This is a great screen out of the box. 165hz, 1ms ensures gameplay is butter smooth so long as your rig can hit those frames. Product description does not mention compatibility with Nvidia G-Sync, but I can confirm that it is compatible for a tear-free experience. The included displayport cable is a bit temperamental, it took me a bit to figure out it was the cable. Using a good quality cable fixed the issues of HDR not being detected, and sometimes the monitor not picking up that there was picture being output on power on. All in all fantastic value for the available features, well worth dealing with some minor annoyances that dont require more than a quick search online for easy solutions.

Bought two of these to pair up with a 4070 Ti video card. They arent true HDR, but theyre nice.

I bought this monitor for a gaming set up I recently built. I was a bit worried since I got it under 200 dollars but I couldn’t be happier. Came in with zero issues and after month of use I’m happy. Video quality is great, and the monitor is responsive. Size was perfect for me even though I was worried it might be a bit big. For reference I’m coming from a 4K 16 in laptop that had an i-9 and some built in graphics. Design is simple and appealing to me, and the bezels are almost nonexistent. The one thing I could nitpick about would be daytime brightness. I have a huge window and get lots of sunlight bleeding in during the day. This would be the only time the brightness doesn’t seem to be enough. The fact it’s highly adjustable helps too! It’s still manageable for sure but something to keep in mind.

Used opportunity for price drop and ordered. The quality as expected and child happy with gaming on it. The quality vs price-very good choice.

Great monitor! No backlight bleeding like the other, more expensive monitors I bought and had to return. If you are look for the best value monitor that checks all the boxes, this is it.
