Good, affordable 2k monitor
By Miranda K on Reviewed in the United States on July 1, 2019
So far so good! I had built my gaming computer earlier this year (in January) and did not want to spend a fortune on an expensive gaming monitor. What made buying my computer peripherals harder was that I was going for a white/silver theme. Finding an attractive monitor that is white/silver, affordable, 2k and can handle slightly higher than average refresh rates was not easy. I stumbled upon this monitor, HP's 27q Pavilion, on a tech website's gaming monitor review. What drew me in was the price, style, FreeSync compatibility and ability to get over 60 Hz refresh rate. I don't use my computer extensively for anything else outside of light gaming at the moment; but will eventually connect my MacBook Pro to it for a second larger monitor for when I'm working from home. The colors look great to me and the screen is large and clear. I have not had any screen tearing when playing Anthem or The Division 2. I was also able to get my refresh rate up to 74-75 Hz by using the Gaming - FreeSync mode. I had to enable my Nvidia graphics card to allow for FreeSync, but I think it's working. The monitor was also super easy to set up! It even came with a VESA mount adapter, should you want to mount the monitor, but I didn't try it out; I just wanted the monitor for regular desk use. The only small cons would be the lack of adjustability of the monitor, both height and angle. Overall I'm very happy with my purchase so far! It looks so nice and it meets my needs.

Beautiful look and great quality. Edit: 1 year later issues began

This is indeed a 75hz (at 1440p too) freesync PLS panel, perfect for photo editing and gaming if you aren't one of those 1ms 144hz guys. Great quality materials and no light bleed, amazing for being one of the cheapest 1440p IPS/PLS panel, colors are accurate but it feels that the viewing angle isn't 178°, maybe a bit less than that UPDATE After 1 year of use, horizontal grey lines appeared on all the left side of the monitor with one almost entirely black, most people might dont even realize is there tho. I ctried to contact HP on their website because the warranty is for a year and i still had 1 month left, however the website said it had expired in january, just 3 months after i bought it. so i called them and they solved it really fast with just a screenshot of my amazon order. Now im in process of returning my monitor and they will send a new one free of charge, i was really lucky the warranty was still active, i dont want to think what would have happen if my issues started a month after the expiration of the warranty. Update: Got the replacement, sadly this new one got too much backlight bleed and im going to have it changed again... smh
