Review on Lenovo Q27Q 10 FreeSync Monitor, Black, 2560x1440 Resolution, 65F4GCC3US by Dave Lyman

I liked the design

Like the design. The screen quality is excellent for what I do with it (office work and photo editing - not tested in games). The 2K resolution is the perfect spot for me on a Mac where adjusting the UI text size for 4K external displays is a challenge. The DDC (Display Data Channel) protocol is supported by default, so I can use the MonitorControl Mac app to adjust the brightness via the Mac menu bar (using the screen's HW buttons and built-in menus to do this so awkwardly to do as possible). You would do it on any other screen - manufacturers seem to suggest that you choose your preferred settings once and never touch them again. Do they ever use their own monitors? You have to adjust the brightness every time the sun comes out!). And the fact that there is no height adjustment doesn't bother me at all. The stand is exactly the height I want. It's also simpler and therefore more elegant. Honestly, the display looks just as good from the front as it does from the side (super thin, impressive) and from the back. In the home office, it cuts a fine figure even when not in use.

Pros
  • I thought it was a mirror image of my Lenovo IDeacentre All-in-One monitor. This one is pixelated.
Cons
  • Bad response time
