Review on Samsung LC27RG50FQNXZA 27-Inch Curved Monitor with 1920x1080P Resolution and 240Hz Refresh Rate by Anthoni Musil

I like it, but others might not like it

For me a very good monitor. At 27 inches, it's a decent size. It has a rather laconic design. And it has almost every feature I could wish for. But at the same time, I think this might disappoint many target customers. Let's start with the fact that the monitor is curved. I used to think curved monitors were just a gimmick. And it's true that I don't see much benefit, but it's actually pretty cool. The monitor has 2 HDMI ports, a display port and a "service" USB port which I'm not sure if has a headphone jack. , and a power connector. It comes with a very good power cord with adjustable pins, a display port cable which is what you need if you want the full 240Hz refresh rate and a clip to hold the cables on the back of the base. Everything is good. The power cord is perhaps my favorite thing about a monitor. It's clearly very high quality and the pins can be rotated 90 degrees to give you more room depending on which way you want to rotate them. Unfortunately, I found that my computer doesn't support 240Hz, so I can't comment on that. but I'm sure it's pretty nice. I personally have three complaints. First, there are no built-in speakers. I have both headphones and external speakers, but I like having something built in. Second, the base isn't as stable as we'd like. It's a big and heavy monitor so I don't want it to tip over and fall. Thirdly, I regret to say that the maximum resolution is 1080p. It's not on the box and I had to look for it in the manual. But you'd think a good, big, modern monitor would have a higher resolution. Also, it doesn't bother me at all, but I suspect others might be bothered by the lack of height adjustment. You can change the tilt but not the height of the monitor. The 240Hz refresh rate means this monitor is definitely aimed at gamers. They are the main group that will take care of such a quick update. But in general, gamers are also very concerned about high resolution and ergonomics, so I think they would be very disappointed with the 1080p cap and lack of height adjustment. I'm still very happy with the monitor, but I think a lot of gamers will be disappointed.
