AOC U3277PQU 32-inch 4K display review


AOC U32 Box

The listed features on the AOC U3277PQU packaging show off its 4K resolution, flicker-free panel, 10-bit colour, MHL support, audio and PIP mode.

AOC U32 Accessories

AOC has been particularly generous with the cabling included with the AOC U3277PQU. You get HDMI, DisplayPort and VGA video cables, power and a USB 3 uplink cable, along with an audio pass-through cable. Plus the usual CD with the manual and some bundled software, and a colour uniformity sheet.

AOC U32 bag of screws

There’s also a bag of screws included for manually attaching the stand.

AOC U32 frontAOC U32 rear

You can’t see it in these photos, but the 32-inch screen on the AOC U3277PQU is certain to dominate any desk as it is the size of a small TV.

AOC U32 rear power

The power supply is internal so the AOC U3277PQU is used with a standard kettle lead. There’s also a hard power switch.

AOC U32 base 1

To support a large 32-inch panel, AOC supplies a suitably large base for weight distribution.

AOC U32 base 2

With the usual key locking system on the underside.

AOC U32 stand 1AOC U32 stand 2

The stand is likewise extremely sturdy.

AOC 32 Cable Management

On the back of the stand is a cable management clip. It’s not as versatile as the holes in the middle of some monitor stands, but at least it’s there.

AOC U32 VESA
It connects to the back of the panel using the bundled set of screws, which needs to be performed with the panel laid face down.

AOC U32 inputs

The included set of inputs is a tad puzzling. There’s only one DisplayPort 1.2 input, and one HDMI 2.0 port, both capable of full 60Hz 4K output.

 DVI is not capable of 60Hz though, and VGA cannot even manage 4K. It would been far more useful to ditch these legacy connectors and instead include extra HDMI or DisplayPort inputs.

AOC U32 USB

There’s a four-port USB hub built into the side.

AOC U32 lock

And also Kensington lock support.

AOC U32 logos

On the bottom left is a set of logos listing the features of AOC U3277PQU.

AOC U32 buttons

And on the bottom right are the usual buttons to control the OSD, with labels on the front of the bezel and a set of five physical buttons underneath it.

  2. “The AOC U3277PQU is a high-end 4K display, with a large 32-inch screen and a specification suited to graphic design work and gaming alike. It has a 10-bit IPS AHVA panel, built-in speakers, a picture-in-picture mode and a fully flexible stand – for a relatively reasonable price.”

    How can anyone trust this review when the reviewer clearly doesn’t know what he is reviewing? The AOC U3277PQU is not a 4K monitor and it does not have an AHVA panel, it is a 2560×1440 monitor with an AMVA panel. I am looking at mine as I type.

  3. You linked to the wrong product, take a closer look at the two names. You linked the Q3277 and not the U3277 reviewed here. The U in this case stands for UHD, while the Q on the product you linked to stands for QHD, explaining the difference in resolution. You should probably double-check what you are looking at if you are going to call someone out.

  4. Any measure of input lag for this display?
    Also, I thought this was an 8-bit panel with some special tech to simulate 10-bit colour range?

    this is the display model which is used in this monitor. It’s clearly stated 10 bit RPG data input. (not 8 bit + FRC). The input lag is ~10 ms, which is very good result in a contrary to a new “gaming” ViewSonic XG2700-4K (23ms), look it here: http://www.displayspecifications.com/en/model/97846a8
