ViewSonic XG2700-4K

This is ViewSonic's attempt to produce a hardcore monitor for gaming, and it tries to tick every box that you'd expect. There's no denying the ViewSonic's feature list: it's a 4K panel with AMD FreeSync, it's littered with gaming modes, and it boasts...

ViewSonic XG2700-4K

The well-equipped ViewSonic XG2700-4K is a 27-inch gaming monitor that uses AMD's FreeSync anti-tearing technology and an In-Plane Switching (IPS) panel to deliver ultra-smooth gaming performance and rich, accurate colors.

Very accurate color and grayscale performance. Sharp Ultra-High-Definition (UHD) picture. AMD FreeSync enabled. Advanced color settings. Ergonomic stand.

Expensive. Ho-hum design. No speakers.

Conclusion With the ViewSonic XG2700-4K, you not only get the benefit of AMD's FreeSync technology, which eliminates screen tearing and provides silky-smooth gaming action, but you also get excellent all-around performance. The IPS panel delivers a...

ViewSonic XG2700-4K 27-inch Ultra HD FreeSync Monitor Review

If you're looking for FreeSync, IPS and Ultra HD in one product, choices are slim. ViewSonic has entered this rarified category with a phenomenal effort in the XG2700-4K. This 27-inch monitor is one of the best displays we've ever tested.

Ultra HD resolution • FreeSync • Perfect accuracy without calibration • Contrast • Clarity • Professional-grade calibration options

40Hz lower FreeSync limit

We'd never expect a gaming monitor to have a factory calibration, let alone one that comes this close to perfection. Coupled with excellent contrast, the XG2700-4K delivers a stunning Ultra HD image in games and graphics alike. While some gamers might...

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Amazing monitor, if you get the correct one.

It's an amazing monitor which could serve a dual function of work /play monitor. But 60hz is probably too low for someone who plays fast shooters... but if you get it right the first time. I had to replace my twice and eventually asked for a refund.

Comes calibrated, good contrast, amazing colors, great stand in both looks and function, USB 3 port plus hub, good response time for an IPS, good set of OSD option.

OSD could use some work, no DP that comes with it to make it work at 60hz, there was significant IPS glow AND backlight bleed on the two I've recieved (2nd one as a replacement for the 1st). The 2nd one had a dead pixel right in the middle of the...

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Not 144hz. Great monitor otherwise.

I would recommend this product as long as you realize that it doesn't do the 144 hz refresh rate as advertised. Nowhere in the manual does it state that 144hz refresh rate is supported. I wasn't expecting 144hz@ 4k, but maybe at lower resolutions I...

Great Colors, Rich Deep wonderful 4k, USB 3.0 connectivity, No noticeable lag, Cool Swivel.

Doesn't do 144hz as advertised. Generic Menu interface, Menu options get grayed out and doesn't inform you which corresponding menu is causing that option to not be available for adjustment. If you follow the instructions to connect the wire management...
