Lenovo R27qe 27" QHD 180Hz IPS Gaming Monitor

Solid monitor downfall is I couldn't enable vrr/allm for some reason while it has 2x 2.1 ports Solid monitor downfall is I couldn't enable vrr/allm for some reason while it has 2x 2.1 ports

Very nice monitor, good colours and refresh rate. For the price it is amazing. The only reason it isn't 5 stars is because the screen can be quite reflective in bright conditions. If I could give 4.5 stars I would. Tip: download the Lenovo Display Control Center for tweaks. Very nice monitor, good colours and refresh rate. For the price it is amazing.

Got this to replace my haunted VA panel (ghosting), and the difference is huge. Suddenly everything is clear and I can enjoy faster paced games again. Also, thanks to upscaling, I don't feel like I need an immediate GPU upgrade coming from 1080p.
HDR is good and I like the extra brightness this display offers over some of the competition. Only bummer is some of the modes cannot be used together, such as response overdrive and HDR, but that is expected. Got this to replace my haunted VA panel (ghosting), and the difference is huge.

Bought this during the Boxing Day sales, at that time it was the most affordable 1440p 27" 180 Hz non curved monitor, and after half a year or so, I'm still pretty happy with it. As a non-competitive gamer it does its job, I mostly play/aim to have around 100-120 fps in my games whenever possible apart from really graphically demanding games, and this seems to work fine. Colour looks fine ONLY if you don't use HDR, because the HDR in this monitor is really bad, like do not buy this if you want HDR, everything else though, solid as a rock.

Premium build quality, great packaging and most importantly, the screen is vibrant and beautiful to look at. Can't fault this monitor. Premium build quality, great packaging and most importantly, the screen is vibrant and beautiful to look at. Can't fault this monitor.

Loving this monitor so far, my only downside is if you sit too close, you might notice the sides being a bit darker; however from about an arms length its less noticeable Loving this monitor so far, my only downside is if you sit too close, you might notice the sides being a bit darker; however from about an arms length its less noticeable

Happy with this monitor, it has good colour reproduction, an effective sRGB clamp, above average black levels for an IPS panel with minimal bleed and IPS glow. No dead pixels on mine so far. The stand is large and won't appeal to everyone, but it's very stable as a result.

It has 2x HDMI 2.1 and 1x DP1.4 and allows 180hz@10 bit, though not true 10 bit. HDR function is there, but not "true" HDR with a max brightness around 400 nits and no local dimming, no surprise at this price point, and it still does look nice of you properly calibrate through windows. I tested the overdrive at 180, 120 and 60hz and found that level 1 has no noticible inv...view more Happy with this monitor, it has good colour reproduction, an effective sRGB clamp, above average black levels for an IPS panel with minimal bleed and IPS glow.

I tested the overdrive at 180, 120 and 60hz and found that level 1 has no noticible inverse ghosting at any of these refresh rates. Level 2 and 3 started to get inverse ghosting at the lower end of the refresh rate range. I've just set and forget on level 1 as a result. It does have a strobing mode, but I never use these due to eye fatigue.

I swapped from a Gigabyte M27QX because it had bad panel bleeding around the sides and the overdrive modes were either too slow or had bad inverse ghosting at the low end of the refresh rate range. This panel is marginally slower, but I'm actually happier with it due to better QC and set and forget overdrive. The menu buttons aren't great compared to a joystick, but you can just download Lenovo's Display Control Centre and configure everything in software.

After researching for a good, budget 1440p monitor. I settled on this and am very pleased with it. Don't think you could do better for the price. After researching for a good, budget 1440p monitor. I settled on this and am very pleased with it. Don't think you could do better for the price.

from 4k 60hz - to 2k 180hz = amazing.
Add freesync and games are smooth as butter. Colors are great, The HDR could be better but it's decent.

Love it! Probably gonna get another. from 4k 60hz - to 2k 180hz = amazing.

Great monitor, even better price. No issues, 1440p is great along with low response times and a high refresh rate. Great monitor, even better price. No issues, 1440p is great along with low response times and a high refresh rate.

This monitor is amazing at 1440p 180hrz. The thing that makes it stand out is the hdmi 2.1 that none of the other monitors in its price point have. This monitor is amazing at 1440p 180hrz. The thing that makes it stand out is the hdmi 2.1 that none of the other monitors in its price point have.
