Most of the highlights are revealed in the model name. As it suggests, this is a 27-inch OLED monitor with a 2K QHD resolution (2560×1440). What the model designation does not tip off, however, are several other notable features, including a fast 240Hz refresh rate, 0.01ms response time, and Blur Busters verification.
“ViewSonic recognizes gamers’ surging interest for OLED displays, driven by their superior color performance and faster response time,” said Oscar Lin, General Manager of the Monitor Business Unit at ViewSonic. “With the launch of the XG272-2K-OLED, we’re bringing gamers impeccable visuals and speed, thanks to OLED technology, and ensuring exceptional clarity with the Blur Busters Verified certification. We are committed to delivering innovative and high-quality products that exceed the expectations of our gaming community.”
This is also a FreeSync Premium display that’s G-Sync compatible to boot, giving users the best of both worlds. Other features include HDR10 support, 97% coverage of the DCI-P3 color space (137% of sRGB), and decent connectivity options consisting of three downstream USB 3.2 Type A ports (and one upstream port), a USB 3.2 Type C DisplayPort Alt mode (15W power charging), a 3.5mm audio jack, two HDMI 2.1 ports, and a pair of DisplayPort 1.4 inputs.
Customizable and remote controller RGB lighting is part of the package as well, because hey, why not. And for ergonomics, ViewSonic’s first OLED monitor sports a height-adjustable stand with tilt, swivel, and pivot maneuvers for the display.
