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

No problems in almost 2 months, great picture and very good refresh rate no pixel problems. Picked it up onsale at $210, excellent at that price.

Lets go straight to the point. Pros: -165Hz (Display Cable only). -Good picture quality. - Good color Vivid. -1440p resolution. -27inch is prefect size for gaming. Con: - Colours out of the box is not great. You need to change or customize it to get the best out of it. -Everytime you touch the HDMI or display cable it turns off the screen and it comes back up again. -Theres a little dull color area in the right side of the monitor. its very small and you dont really notice it when you are watching movies and playing games. -Also I one dead pixel (Not too bad)

I got this for $210 which for what it is, was an excellent deal. I ended up ordering a second and one was the LG panel and the other was the BOE panel. I really dont see a difference between the 2 panels. Yeah theres the usual IPS glow and if I am being super critical, the LG one has a little more glow on the top left than the BOE panel, but its totally acceptable for this price. The black frame insertion performance is great and the response time set to 2 looks perfect. The HDR looked super clipped and blown out no matter the settings on my PS5, but I didnt get this monitor for that feature. I wish VRR was supported on the PS5 for this one, but at least it works on the PC and Xbox consoles. I highly recommend this screen if you see it on sale and need a gaming monitor.

Picked this up in a flash sale and its great for the price. It has the same panel as the Dell (pictured on the right in my photos). Very similar picture but the HP is a little bit more neutral. The HP didnt need calibrated out of the box, unlike the Dell monitor. I cant run it at its highest refresh setting, there was a bit of ghosting. Dropping it to level 3 fixed it. Otherwise it is a smooth experience. The power button is in a terrible spot, if you are right to run 2 of these or more you might want to try something else out. If the price goes down again, Ill easily pick up another to run in portrait. Overall Im happy with it for what I paid

Love the monitor

It’s been a while since I last upgraded my monitor, an upgrade I thought was not as worthwhile as say a whole new computer, or a shiny new keyboard. It appears I was wrong to underestimate the power of a monitor upgrade. One of the main features of the HP Monitorx27q is that it reduces blue light, allowing one to partake in long sessions of gaming, online shopping or essay typing without the eye strain that other monitor screens may give you. Previously, I would have to wear Anti Blue Light glasses if I wanted to sit at the screen for more than 30 minutes without bringing discomfort upon my eyeballs. Now, I haven’t worn those glasses once, not even during a long, Saturday night gaming marathon. My eyes have sung many songs of joy, being free of the restraints of blue light. As for general quality of life improvements I experienced: 1. Adjustable height and angle, rather than just the angle 2. Button placement in vertical order on the backside, rather than having to fumble around on the underside looking for the right button 3. Large screen for greater immersion 4. Just looks nicer visually, both the monitor itself and whatever it’s displaying.

Great picture

Purchased the legendary treasure truck deal, monitor came quick. Was unfortunate to learn the one I received came with the cheaper BOE panel that HP swapped into these bad boys to save money. There is an odd green tint on the screen I cant seem to remove with any settings. But for a second or third monitor this thing does the job.

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!

The buttons on the back are not in a good spot. The Monitor flickers in and out of display at times, however this could be an isolated incident. These things put off VERY high EMF RF frequency. Recommend 2ft away. The picture quality is top notch, I have a 4k Benq 27 monitor and these look better at 2k side by side, the color difference (for the better) is what stands out the most. A Competitive gaming edge is VERY noticeable with online shooters like, Halo, COD, Overwatch. I have a 32 and 27 If you want a gaming monitor, This is the best you can get for under $150.00. The next best is the Samsung G7 for 500.00. @4k and 120hz You can stop researching what to buy as this is one of the 2 options.
