Consensus

our Verdict

Analysts were amazed by the Lenovo Q27Q-10, recommending it for office use. Reviewers at PC Mag were pleased with its FreeSync tech, which reduced screen tearing during testing. They also loved its wide viewing angles, which support group viewing. Testers hailed clocked this device’s input lag at an impressive 6.6 ms, but its 22.2 ms total response time was deemed mediocre. They explained that its 75Hz refresh rate is okay for slow-paced games, but it’s much lower than the 165Hz rate of more gaming-focused monitors such as the Lenovo Legion Y27Q-20. With IPS panel technology, this device provides remarkably wide viewing angles and supports co-op gaming and team working arrangements. Researchers also noticed good reflection handling abilities and decent maximum brightness (271 nits), which provides good quality images in moderately lit offices. Reviewers at Tech Radar were unimpressed by this monitor’s poor stand, however, stating that it only provides limited flexibility. This monitor also proved to have a poor color gamut, covering just 88.8% of the sRGB color space. The colors were inaccurate out of the box, with a delta E of 4.73, and the HDMI 1.4 ports were deemed unsuitable for UHD games.
