About this product
The ViewSonic OMNI VX2728J is a 27-inch gaming monitor with an IPS LED panel, 165Hz refresh rate, 1ms response time, and 1920x1080 resolution. It features a contrast ratio of 80,000,000:1 (dynamic), anti-glare coating, and HDMI input. Priced at $198.40, it targets entry-level to mid-range gamers.
Our take
The VX2728J is a solid entry-level gaming monitor. The 165Hz refresh rate and 1ms response on an IPS panel make motion fluid, and colors are punchy. The 1080p resolution is fine for 27 inches, though pixel density isn't amazing. The dynamic contrast is high, but static contrast feels typical. For under $200, it's a great value—just note that the brightness is only 250 cd/m², so it's not the best for bright rooms.
