Review on ViewSonic XG2705 27'' 144Hz Gaming Monitor - Frameless, FreeSync, Ergonomics, Anti-Glare by Andrew Antibas

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great monitor - my new review

It's a great monitor, and its ultra-thin bezel is great for dual-monitor setups. The picture looks good, the higher refresh rate is cool. The only criticism is the power button. It's at the back with the others, which doesn't really matter, but I want it to be at the bottom or on the side. Annoyingly, it doesn't turn off with one click while your computer is still on. When your computer is on, you should press and hold it for about 5 seconds. If your computer is off, you must wait for the indicator to turn from blue to orange before you can finally turn off the monitor. This is the first monitor I have that does this. It's just annoying because it slows me down when I turn everything off at the end of the day.

Pros
  • You can work fine at 144Hz with an HDMI cable, but you need DP for the 1ms mode, which is never mentioned.
Cons
  • Something wrong
