Is Samsung's new Odyssey G5 34-inch monitor a good option for more budget-conscious gamers after something ultra-wide and high refresh rate? Today we ...

As for color, I kept both monitors at the default color settings out of the box - the Dell had great saturation, possibly oversaturated. The M27Q appears less saturated, and its overall color out of the box appears more neutral, while the Dell appeared warm. Regardless of which you prefer, both monitors' color can be adjusted. However, no amount of calibration can fix the Dell's low contrast ability; the M27Q wipes the floor with the S2721DGF in this respect

My images on the Viotek are crystal clear and super crisp whereas on the G5 it looks all washed out and blurry. It's impossible to get accurate coloring out of the G5. Just everything about the G5 is far inferior to any basic 2k monitor out there. I'm requesting a refund

GIGABYTE also included USB hub and KVM switch functionality, which since the release of the original M27Q has become a very popular feature among gami...

$360 is a very enticing price point, putting the M27Q up against popular products like the ViewSonic VX27582KPMHD and Pixio PX277 Prime, although both...

The G5 comes with a sleek design that is characterised by that massive 1000R curvature that I mentioned. The monitor comes with a dual-stage bezel tha...

The last time we took a standalone look at the 1440p market was in july of 2021 and it's fair to say a few. Things have changed since then in terms of...

The problem become that ps5 doesnt offer a 1440p option. Only 1080 then 4k. So you're stuck on this resolution that isnt scaling up well. On the xbox one X, the fact that its stuck on 1440p means that I couldn't use the HDR feature because HDR is only available in 4K

The Gigabyte M27Q is the best monitor for Mac in the budget category that we've tested. It's a great monitor for most uses, with a 27 inch, 1440p screen, great viewing angles, and an exceptional SDR color gamut. It's very bright in SDR, and the matte anti-reflective coating delivers decent reflection handling, so viewability isn't an issue in most viewing environments.

Now again, it's not mind-blowing, but i think the average person that isn't used to oled tvs and high-end displays will enjoy the hdr experience on th...

Like most IPS monitors, it has wide viewing angles that make it great for sharing content or playing co-op games. Its reflection handling is only decent, but it gets more than bright enough to overcome intense glare, meaning visibility won't be an issue in well-lit rooms.

Black light bleed isn't horrible with this monitor, by the way. I have noticed that it does depend on the angle that you're looking at the monitor whe...
