AOC U3277PQU 32-inch 4K display review

AOC U32 OSD Input

A quick press of the left-most button provides a shortcut to switch the display input. Another inwards press cycles through the list.

The next button enables Clear Vision, or moves back through menus.

Following that is a shortcut for volume control. The last (fifth) button is the ‘soft’ power button. While the fourth one along displays a menu with all the monitor’s settings.

AOC U32 OSD Luminance

The Luminance menu contains the contrast and brightness settings, Overdrive, an ECO mode, DCR (dynamic contarast, left off for testing) and 3 gamma settings.

AOC U32 OSD Color

There are four colour temperature settings – Normal, Warm, Cool and sRGB, and a user-customisable setting, with Red, Green and Blue sliders.

DCB (dynamic colour boost) slightly over saturates certain colours, depending on the on-screen content. It’s especially noticeable with bright shades of red and green.

AOC U32 OSD PIP

The PIP Setting menu is for enabling and adjusting the picture-in-picture or picture-by picture setting.

You can switch the main display and the PIP source, adjust its size and on-screen location, and enable audio from the secondary source.

AOC U32 PIP

And here it is in use, with a PS4 connected to the HDMI 2.0 input

AOC U32 OSD Picture

The PictureBoost menu provides options to adjust the brightness and contrast of a specific part of the screen. You can customise its size and location.

AOC U32 OSD Extra

The Extra menu lets you choose the selected input, adjust the image ratio, enable DDC/CI and reset the monitor settings.

AOC U32 OSD Setup

As well as adjusting the timeout (invaluable when looking for certain settings) the OSD Setup menu lets you move the OSD around, enable the Break Reminder option that reminds you to take exercise every 30 minutes, and change the OSD language.

  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
