The AOC I2757FM 27″ Pro IPS LED Monitor will appeal to the enthusiast audience who want a large, high quality screen without having to spend a fortune for the real estate.
At less than £230 from Scan the AOC I2757FM certainly offers good value for money. While the resolution is limited to 1080P, the quality of this panel is higher than many 27 inch screens we have tested in the past.
LED backlighting is excellent, and as good as we have seen in this price bracket. While black definition could be better, it wasn't an overly negative result and white purity compensated, delivering a clean, bright image with a variety of media. Viewing angles are excellent on the horizontal plane, and above average on the vertical plane, meaning you can view slightly off centre without suffering noticeable colour shift or brightness degradation.
Colour intensity is commendable, and once calibrated the images presented are both realistic and vibrant. Overall I would class image quality as slightly above average and the pros certainly outweigh the cons. Additionally, If MHL support is important, then this makes the deal even sweeter.
Pros:
- decent overall image quality.
- good price point for an 27 inch IPS panel.
- text clarity.
- white purity.
- good onscreen interface.
- power efficient.
Cons:
- black definition could be better.
- plenty of competition at this price point.
Kitguru says: For a touch under £230 we feel this screen delivers balanced picture quality with only a few weaknesses.
Good value for money monitors, I got one of these for less in a sale last month. great screen, very happy with it.
AOC are getting a good name for value screens in the last year. bargain prices. not sure id trade in my dell however, but good review.
Loads of choices between £180 and £300 – id look at some of the ASUS Pro art options, at close to £300.
AOC rock for budget screens, wish they would make a 2560×1440 27 inch though around £350 🙂
I take it there is no option to mount on a vesa compatible bracket?
