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

I love this monitor! It works so well and is the perfect size (it almost is even a little large for me). I have no complaints and I have had no issues with how it performs. My only complaint is that it only has 1 hdmi connection and 1 displayport connection. I have 2 devices that use hdmi and no devices that use displayport so my temporary solution is that I have to switch the hdmi cord back and forth between devices as I want to use them haha. I knew that when I bought the monitor though, so I didn’t take off any stars for it. No other complaints on this monitor!

Been playing on a 43 ultra wide. Ordered three of these on a black Friday sale to try triple setup. These are amazing panels. Buttons on the back are a pain but Ill deal for the price and picture quality.

I personally love this monitor. I dont really have much to say. Pros: - Affordable. Can get it on sale for a steal. - Decent color accuracy out of box. - Brightness is pretty decent. - Comes with both HDMI and DisplayPort cables out of the box. Which is uncommon in my experience. Cons: - No USB hub. - This monitor has a display lottery. You may get one of two types of panels. People online argue a lot about which one is better, but realistically both will suit the needs of most buyers. However, if youre very picky (or rely a lot on reviews) its iffy on whether or not itll apply to your purchase, since most reviews are only based on one panel type or the other. All panels are still IPS, still 1440p, still 165hz. the difference is mostly color accuracy and color grading. Look into it if that concerns you, otherwise I can pretty much assure you that the experience will be solid.

This is a great monitor I have no complaints. Edit 5/29/23 Ive started noticing some flickering issue with certain games when I have free sync enabled and am getting more fps than the refresh rate. So for example its noticeable in some games menus where fps can just basically sky rocket into the hundreds easily if its not capped, there is some flickering. Most modern games have a fps cap when at the main menus but not all. I cant say its an issue for me but maybe something to consider if your looking into this monitor.

Bought 2 to replace my current Full HD monitor when it was on Amazon lighting deal. Works great! It event has display port! One of the best purchase I made this year

product arrived without any imperfections, no dead pixels, and thankfully I got the version with an LG panel, not the lower quality one that i think its a chinese brand called obe or obo or whatever. Im so happy with this monitor!

I got it on discount for $209. I upgraded from an old Ultrawide I was using at 1080p 75 hz. The jump up to 144 hz is very noticeable, especially for my fast paced games like Rocket League and COD. I’m very pleased with the smoothness and response time and especially the HDR color profile which looks much better than my old monitor. Happy with this purchase!

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 good monitor and especially at the current price point and will definitely work for some but I received the BOE panel twice in a row and even after being reassured by Amazon customer service that I will get the LG one after the initial return, my second monitor was also the BOE variation of the panel. It really sucks that they would put out a product that is basically a gamble and a ton of wasted time and money (in my case at least). I tested it and the colors on it look horrendous. I installed a ICC profile that shouldve fixed the color issue and played around with OSD settings a lot as well as followed instructions by youtubers and others on the internet but could not make the screen look any better. I have to say thou, if you are going to exclusively use this for gaming, it might be worth the shot because I played a few matches of PUBG on it and it looked quite good with the 1444p resolution and high refresh rate. Its hard to say no for this price but I am returning it for the second time and will be getting a mid-range priced monitor to avoid any more headaches. This probably used to be a great monitor back in the day when more LG panels were available but HP decide to cut corners and started making a lot more with the BOE panel apparently, its hard to get the LG panel nowadays it seems.

Dunno if I got lucky or what, but I got an LG panel and its basically perfect. Zero ghosting (I think that recent review complaining about ghosting has their settings wrong - setting Response Time to level 4 will introduce overshoot, I recommend setting it to level 2. Or theyre using variable refresh rate, which I havent bothered using yet), good colors + brightness, no dead pixels, and minimal backlight bleed. Only annoyances Ive had with it is: It installs Omen Gaming Hub on your PC automatically, completely unasked for (I uninstalled it and it never came back). Red colors are a smidge over-saturated and its difficult to reign it in with the settings. Though it may just be my old secondary Dell monitor, which looks a bit gray and washed out, in comparison. Otherwise, 100% recommended for anyone looking for a high refresh rate 1440p IPS panel monitor around $200, that doesnt have the awful VA panel black smearing that cheaper high refresh rate usually have (havent seen a single other monitor like this around $200 that isnt a VA panel). You also usually dont see fully height-adjustable stands at this price point, either. So I was a bit skeptical buying it for only $200. Wasnt expecting much considering the brand and the price, but Im pleasantly surprised. Update: I tried out Freesync, and it actually works better than the dedicated Gsync module in my old monitor. There is some very slight overshoot ghosting, but you really have to look for it to notice it.
