There are five touch sensitive buttons on the base of the display. On the far right is a simple power button. The arrows either move through menu options or provide shortcuts to various monitor functions.
The first button on the left switches inputs, the second button switches between game mode presets, the third is a volume control and the fourth brings up the main menu. It’s pretty much the same on all AOC products.
Note that game mode is not the same as picture mode. The game mode adjusts the brightness and contrast as well as the overdrive setting.
The Color Setup menu gives a simple temperature control and DCB mode. In user mode you get access to the RGB levels.
The Luminance many lets you change the picture mode, with brightness and contrast controls, overdrive, gamma and a feature called shadow control.
The Picture Boost menu can be safely ignored as it mainly controls a feature called Bright Frame, which is fairly useless.
The OSD setup menu has a few settings for the OSD timeout, transparency, DisplayPort setting (leave it on 1.2) and the amusing break reminder function, which reminds you to stretch your legs after prolonged periods of use.
The Extra menu lets you reset the settings, change input and set the power off timer. It also displays the current refresh rate.
Resolution too low for quality visuals.
Stopped reading after 1080p
Sorry AOC. You have to up the resolution on this one, then I buy, otherwise, no thank you.
Again with the 1080p.. it’s 2006 all over again
Why only 1080p? Major oversight. I’ll pass.
Spyder colorimeters are worthless for measuring contrast ratio. Get something from X-Rite instead.
Well im so sorry to be this person that actually enjoy this type of resolution im running an Z35 acer and im really oldschool when it comes to gaming i think i started competative onlinegaming during Quake series unreal tournament etc.
I enjoy the speed and size and foremost ive used CRT monitors untill 2 years ago so 160 to 200 is very noticeble for me but then agian CRTs still are better when it comes to responsetime i i do belive ?
Cant bloodly belive its taken them this long to releasing a monitor that could give the similar not yet the same performance feels like the manufacturers “forgot” the past with CRT monitors awesome performance in favorit for the flat panels .
Personaly i tweak everything down to the lowest lvl but still with comfortable wieving pleasure with alot of colour so this panel is right on the money for me im really happy maybe im alone in this sentiment but its an amazing upgrade, from my 27inch asus 278 ROG panel that has 1ms in responstime but the Z35 performs just as good but i run with 160hz for best input times
