AOC announces a 27” (68.6 cm) AGON AG273QZ monitor with QHD resolution of 2560x1440 pixels, and it is fast, boasting a 240Hz refresh rate and an extremely low 0.5 ms response time (MPRT).... AOC releases high-performance monitor AG273QZ with QHD, HDR, 240 Hz and 0.5 ms MPRT
Reminds me of a few years ago, when the first 120Hz gaming screens came out, and I waited for an IPS / VA panel with the same specs than TN. Will come around sooner than later anyway, for those who want to wait.
@fantaskarsef Acer XF270HUA. 27 inches, 8bit, 2560x1440, 144Hz, Freesync, IPS panel, 429 Euros. Acer XG270HUA is the GSync variant, I think with 165hz iirc. I own it. Besides little BLB it's absolutely fine.
Lenovo Legion Y27q-20 , 10 bit true IPS panel (not the fake AH-IPS that most use now..) 98% DCI-P3 coverage, 165hz native, Freesync, HDR - 450 euro. Borrows the panel from LG's enigmatic (as in not found in stores ) 27GL850 panel and improves on it.
Well you were later to the party then me, I bought the XB270HU, which was way more expensive, 144Hz, but released a year or two earlier.
Wait, I'm a little confused. It's a TN panel but it's also wide color gamut. What the heck? Maybe there is actually something going on with "next gen TN"
I only find sources saying 8+2bit ... so 8bit + FRC. Personally I dont like FRC, so it is out of my interest. And regarding HDR I didnt see it listed anywhere, not even in Lenovo's own manuals. Are you sure about that and could provide a source for your claim?
I have this monitor (Y27Q-20), its pretty good for my uses. It does show up as 10 but it has to be through Nvidia settings. It also has HDR and its super bright but only at 350 nit so not really ideal if you're looking solely for an HDR display. It also lacks in the dimming/darkening department so thats up to you if you want to use it. It doesn't have a g-sync module like the ViewSonic version but its capable just like the regular LG version. It's good, i like it. Since I'm less competitive in games nowadays I sold off my 1080p/240Hz/AW2518H and at 1440p/165/nano-IPS looks pretty good!
While I guess you're right about the HDR thing I am still not sure about the 10bit screen, as this would be the same for 8+2. But anyway ... I dont want to start a fight, not over things I dont own and not over such little cosmetic gimmicks.
8bit+2 FRC shows up and works as 10 bit, same as 6bit +FRC = 8bit...It's nothing new. Back in the day, AH-IPS > IPS , now the user up there compared new IPS (nano IPS) to AH-IPS, and said it's true IPS. Well, it's NEW IPS, IPS is IPS, it's a code for the organization and the way pixel matrix works (In-Plane-Switching = IPS, every IPS, o matter the prefix IS IPS... ) to sum it up, I will borrow a snippet from another user in another forum: " AH-IPS is a sub type of IPS family. In reality there is no "IPS" panel by itself, it's always one of the following variation: -> AH-IPS, H-IPS, P-IPS, S-IPS, eIPS (economic IPS), E-IPS (Enhanced IPS), AS-IPS, IPS-Pro or PLS (Samsung version of IPS). " They are all true IPS. Nano IPS is not on the list (didn't exist when the list was made ). Feel free to add it.
S-IPS II, AD PLS (although this is most likely just a PLS rebrand) EDIT: And yeah, they're all just variations of "IPS". NANO IPS is not "true" IPS. It's just LG's new version of IPS.
That's a tough sell. I can get a 34"+, with 100-120Hz@3440x1440, and non-TN in ultra-wide.....or this. I'll take the former for around the same price.
