1080p on a 27", Horrible.

Opinion for u not for me, its better then 22 inch or even 24 inch still to small

27 inch perfect for 1080p
32 inch for 1440p
40 inch and up for 4k

Also dont buy acer or asus they all have crap IQ compared to samsung or lg.
Best full HD monitor so far.

And i love it!
I got the 27 inch version btw.

1080p on a 27", Horrible.

Previously I also though 1080p should stop at 24" as I had seen a very bad 27" 1080p TN panel from Acer.

Now I am using LG 34" UltraWide 2560x1080 IPS panel which is equal to 27" Wide 1920x1080 but longer. Before this I am using ViewSonic 32" 2560x1440 IPS Panel and I can assure to said I don't see much differences. Both is equally sharp.

The only great thing of 1440p is it had more working space which is bonus plus point for 1440p but this not means 1080p is horrible. It depends on what kind of panel display you have.

And 27" / 34" simply looks very nice and not too small font and icon in 1080p.

For me below is the best screen size.

27" Wide / 34" UltraWide - 1080p
32" Wide / 38" UltraWide - 1440p / 1600p
40" and above - 2160p

Acer releases new 27-inch curved liquid

I'll hold to my flowing liquid, thank you.

The shiny monitor holds a non-glossy VA panel.

I hope it's a white black shiny non-glossy.
