The Q2770PQU is a new addition to AOC’s line of professional monitors, a 27in panel with an iMac-like 2560 x 1440 pixel resolution. It takes a Super PLS panel, Samsung’s IPS-style technology, to promise crisp and vivid images.
A substantial stand swivels on its circular base, allowing tilt back and forth, and also allows the panel to rotate into a vertical portrait orientation. The monitor itself looks a little square, with a thick, brushed-metal effect plastic frame and asymmetrically thicker bezel running along the bottom.
Legends for the four menu buttons are raised plastic, making them nearly impossible to read. The buttons hidden under the edge are large and well spaced, while the on-screen menu system is reasonably logical, a semi-transparent overlay that seemingly rises from the screen bottom.
Overall…
