Monitor Review Update Log 10 - 2020

BenQ EX2710

Added the Review by PRAD to my Best Reviewed Flicker Free 27" 1440p AHVA/IPS/PLS and Best Reviewed Flicker Free 144-165hz 1440p Monitors buying guides.

Height adjust-able, matte, 144hz 1920x1080 IPS panel with Displayport, 2x HDMI 2.0 and 3.5mm Audio Out.  The EX2710 has 1100:1 contrast, accurate color when the Standard mode is selected, but slightly skewed and too high gamma starting at 30% white which causes light colors and white shades to be too dark.  The EX2710 has negligible input lag at both 60 and 144hz, the default AMA 1 overdrive setting provides fast and overshoot free pixel response times, but they can be improved by switching to AMA 2, though PRAD did not measure the AMA 2 overdrive, even though they think it is the best setting.


Dell UltraSharp U2520D

Added the Review by Rtings to my Best Reviewed Flicker Free 25" 1440p IPS/PLS Monitors buying guide.

Fully adjust-able, matte, 2560x1440 IPS panel with Displayport, HDMI 2.0, 2x USB-C, 3x USB 3.0 and 3.5mm Audio Out.  The U2520D has 1000:1 contrast, accurate colors aside from marginally too high preset gamma, full (99.6% measured) sRGB color space coverage, negligible input lag and good 60hz pixel response times aside from a bit of overshoot.


Dell S2721D

Added the Review by Rtings to my Best Reviewed Flicker Free 27" 1440p AHVA/IPS/PLS buying guide.

Matte, 2560x1440, 75hz IPS panel with Displayport, AMD Free-Sync (G-Sync compatible over Displayport; 48-75hz range), 2x HDMI 1.4, VESA mounts and 3.5mm Audio Out.  The S2721D 1000:1 contrast, decent preset color accuracy, negligible input lag and average pixel response times with no over-shoot when the preset Normal overdrive setting is used.


LG 27QN880-B

Added the Review by PRAD to my Best Reviewed Flicker Free 27" 1440p AHVA/IPS/PLS buying guide.

Fully adjust-able (stand base clamps to desk), matte, 2560x1440, 75hz IPS with Displayport, 2x HDMI, 2x USB 3.0, USB-C and 3.5mm Audio Out.  The 27QN880 has 890:1 contrast, a 33-423cdm/2 brightness range, 99% sRGB color space coverage, and is very accurate aside from the gamma which drops below 2.0 starting at 90% white.  The Fast overdrive setting provides fast pixel response times with almost zero overshoot at both 60 and 75hz.  PRAD measured a 12.8ms signal delay at 60hz, and 6.4ms at 75hz; both measurements (oscilloscope) allow the 27QN880 to be considered delay free.
