GIGABYTE - AORUS FO27Q3-27" QD OLED Gaming Monitor Review: One of the BEST **Introduction:** I keep the review simple and in laments terms. I try not to get too technical, although I can! My goal is to translate my reviews so anyone looking for a TV or display will know if this is for them or not. **Design:** Describe the monitor's physical appearance. Mention the build quality, bezels, stand, and any unique design features. **Display Quality:** This is a very sleek, QD third generation OLED monitor. If you're looking for vibrancy, brightness, details. Look no further! This monitor will provide you with everything you've come to expect from OLED monitors and then some. I'm a big fan of the thin display design with the components being set to 'boxed' area on the back. I prefer this to a full enclosed body shape so if this is a design you like, it's got it! Check the pictures to see how incredibly thin this monitor is. My only gripe is the bezels are still a little big around the edges. not distracting, doesn't feel cheap but still bigger than I'd like. **Performance:** If you're getting this as a primary gaming monitor. You've landed on it. Price to performance it's incredible. I'd say this is definitely a top tier monitor. It's going to be really hard to find a monitor that looks better than this one. Third gen QD OLED, 'nough said to be honest. **Features:** • Glossy anti-reflective coating --- This is not pure Matte as it says in the Amazon description!!! • QHD 2k • Picture in Picture, Picture By Picture • VESA Certified - HDR 400 • VESA Certified - ClearMR 13000 • 360Hz • 0.03 ms response time (and yes it's actually extremely responsive, not just advertised as such) • KVM. One for All • OLED Care • 3 year warranty **User Experience:** I absolutely love my LG 39GS95QE because it has awesome brightness and awesome colors. This monitor came out this year just a few months ago. The Aorus monitor has even better colors that pop and seems like even better contrast. It's just a beautiful display that is pure eye candy. The monitor does have a slightly warmer calibration out of the box but it's not noticeable unless you have a pure white background. Inky blacks, amazing contrast ratio, spectacular performance with almost zero latency. I've been saying it but this is pretty much a 27 inch monitor dream. If you've been waiting for the best 1440p monitor to replace your old IPS or LED - you can stop searching. **Value for Money:** Evaluate whether the monitor is worth its price. Consider its performance, features, and how it compares to similar models in its price range. **Pros:** * Inky blacks • Colors pop. Movie watching, gaming is top tier! • Ability to downscale image to 24.5 inches for competitive gaming • high PPI makes things look very crisp • better color accuracy than WOLED • Glossy finish (my personal preference. If you like Matte, sorry not sorry lol) This will probably remain an undisputed champion in the market of 1440p monitors for some time. **Cons:** • If you're looking for 4k, consider 4k options - they will still have better PPI • Color fringing still visible in text. See photos for an example. It's very minor but some may notice. • No options for cool temperature adjustment. If you like a cool color temp instead of warm you won't be able to adjust this. **Conclusion:** The price is fair. The colors and inky blacks will have you feeling like you're in your own personal home theater setup. It's bright and crisp. I had to look for negative things to say about this monitor! **Rating:** 5 out 5 stars - without a doubt! The negatives are far outweighed by the positives. I can safely say you won't regret this purchase.

This monitor is amazing! It’s thin, great value, I got it discounted and used my prime young adult cash back so got it for 600. The screen gets micro scratches easily, so make sure to use a microfiber cloth, I like to use distilled water with it. The colors are vibrant and way more accurate, with hdr the highlights pop so well

The Monitor is beautiful and when not cycling on and off performs incredibly well. Problem here is that it intermittently cycles on and off sometimes cycling every1-3 seconds with only unplugging the monitor from input/power being the fix. I scoured around for a fix but in general the threads I found related, which were several, did not point to a resolution. I tested a number of things they suggested but the issue eventually came back every time. I tested this on two separate pc's with separate cables. I am lucky I caught this early as others mentioned running into this issue months after purchase or was so infrequent in the beginning to not seem like an issue. This is a shame as its an otherwise amazing monitor that I had hoped to use for work and play.

Before this, I had two 32" 1440p 165hz monitors from Asus and LG. I play a lot of fps games and so I figured going down to 27" wouldn't be a terrible idea just for more situational awareness due to having a smaller screen and whatnot. When I say that this has genuinely made me a better player, I'm not kidding. I improved over night on rainbow six siege due to the clarity of the image (presumably due to the glossy coating), and the insane speed of the 360hz. I should also mention that the dark stabilizer on this monitor is pretty nuts too. I leave mine on 3 and it really does help see better in the darker areas of the game. Next to my 32" Asus monitor, it's a night and day difference. Colors are more vibrant, the glossy screen makes the image appear clearer, the blacks are BLACK (yes, if you have lights in your room, they're a little purplish due to the way that the QD-OLED works, but it's a non-issue for me. I use the monitor mostly at night), and overall- it's just a really beautiful monitor that I've had no issues with whatsoever. a Sorry my picture isn't the best. I might return later when it's night again and upload a comparison image

One of the best QD-OLED 360hz 1440p monitors currently on the market. Has USB B port for firmware updates if needed and released (big plus) and HDMI 2.1 full bandwidth. I wish Gigabyte released a Windows driver for it. It not nice to see "Generic Monitor" in device manager and some games/applications for an $800 dollar monitor. I also hope GBT will continue to refine and improve things in future FW updates. They already addressed an issue with Standby Pixel Cleanup through a FW update.
