Review on Z-EDGE 27 Inch Curved Gaming Monitor: 240Hz, 1920X1080, Flicker Free, Built In Speakers & HDMI Input by Yazid Taylor

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Medium curved gaming monitor

I switched from my 24" flat display to this 27" curved monitor. This is the minimum height due to the curve, so it takes up almost the same space on my desk. It's lightweight, easy to assemble, and once plugged in, my computer immediately recognized the new device. It seemed to be taking too long on first boot, maybe for loading drivers or something, but has since restarted at normal speed. The display is bright and crisp with sharp details. I work mostly on the web and don't play as much as I used to, so my ability to tell you about refresh rate and the gaming aspect in general isn't applicable if you're interested in knowing about that. Control is a button on the back that activates settings mode and there's a joystick to toggle the selection. Having to use the back of the monitor while looking at the front of the screen is a little confusing, and having to press a button to select a menu isn't very intuitive. Therefore, my desire to change it to another parameter is not always present. With a 27-inch screen, I wondered if the screen was too small to justify its curvature. I didn't feel enveloped by the screen, but perhaps the feeling is a bit more immersive when gaming. There was a time or two where the screen was a little buggy, but that seemed to go away, assuming it didn't come back. In general, the quality of the monitor is satisfied. I'm not familiar with the company but this product they made seems to be pretty good and reasonably priced for what you get.
