Bargain monitor, but faulty so returned.
For the price it’s a decent monitor with a ok Omani and good refresh rate. Very light weight and feels a little cheap when trying to adjust. Sadly mine had a fault and would sometimes show a jittery picture and occasionally display a black screen for a second or two. Returned for a full refund and bought a different monitor.

The New Sweet Spot for High-Refresh Gaming
The AOC Q27G42ZE is a powerhouse that targets the "Goldilocks zone" of modern gaming: 1440p resolution paired with an incredibly high 260Hz refresh rate. If you are looking to bridge the gap between competitive esports speed and immersive visual quality, this monitor is a top-tier contender. The Performance: Speed Without Sacrifice Most monitors in this price bracket force you to choose between the clarity of IPS panels and the raw speed of TN panels. The Q27G42ZE offers both. Ultra-Smooth 260Hz: Moving from 144Hz to 260Hz provides a noticeable reduction in input lag and motion blur. In fast-paced titles like Valorant or Apex Legends, the tracking feels instantaneous. Fast IPS Technology: Unlike older IPS panels that suffered from "ghosting," this monitor maintains sharp transitions. You get the vibrant colors and wide viewing angles IPS is known for, without the trailing effects in high-speed scenes. QHD (2560 x 1440) Resolution: At 27 inches, 1440p is the perfect pixel density. It’s significantly sharper than 1080p, making it great for both productivity and cinematic gaming. Build and Features AOC’s "G4" design language is sleek and aggressive without being distracting. Ergonomics: The stand is sturdy and offers height, tilt, and swivel adjustments, which is essential for long gaming sessions. HDR Support: While it isn't a professional-grade HDR display, it provides enough brightness and color depth to make supported games and movies "pop" more than a standard SDR screen. Adaptive Sync: It plays beautifully with both NVIDIA and AMD GPUs, ensuring a tear-free experience even if your frame rate fluctuates. The Trade-off: To fully utilize 260Hz at 1440p, you will need a relatively powerful GPU (like an RTX 4070 or RX 7800 XT and above) to hit those frame rates in modern titles. Final Verdict The AOC Q27G42ZE is an easy recommendation for any gamer who wants a competitive edge but refuses to play on a blurry or dull-looking screen. It is arguably one of the best value-for-performance monitors on the market right now. Rating: 4.8/5

Great monitor for the price
Very good performance for the price. It was easy to set up and it works well with my laptop. It also has an HDR setting which works better than I expected for a monitor of this price. The only thing I wish it had was a height adjustable stand but apparently that is only available on the higher end models.
