AOC U27V4EA 27in 4K Monitor Review

The AOC U27V4EA box is quite beige. But then this is a business screen.

There is not an awful lot in the box, either. Just a power brick, mains cords for the UK and EU, and an HDMI cable. But no DisplayPort cable.

This is a very sober-looking screen, particularly when it is off. The thin bezel does make it appear a bit classier when the screen is on, but otherwise this is a very mild and unassuming screen. The stand is also thin and, while solid, isn't trying to show off in any way. The 2W speakers are hidden from view too.

Only tilt is available to adjust this screen, providing 5 degrees forward and 23 degrees backward. It's a shame that you can't even raise or lower the panel.

The U27V4EA provides a decent haul of video inputs. The two HDMI connections are 2.0 standard, but the DisplayPort is only 1.2, not 1.4. However, that just means it can't support 144Hz at 4K resolution, and this monitor only goes to 60Hz anyway at 3,840 x 2,160. There's also an analog minijack for headphones and an input for the separate power brick.

The menu functions are operated by a very conventional array of five buttons underneath the bezel to the right of centre.
