Agon by AOC has expanded its G4 gaming monitor lineup with the launch of the AOC Gaming Q27G4ZRAD/01. Priced at £229, this 27‑inch QHD display pairs a Fast IPS panel with a native 240Hz refresh rate that can be overclocked to 260Hz.

The flat 2560×1440 Fast IPS panel offers 178°/178° viewing angles and an anti‑glare coating. Peak brightness reaches 400 nits, earning VESA DisplayHDR 400 certification. Colour coverage is rated at 123.6% sRGB, 95.2% DCI‑P3 and 91.4% Adobe RGB. Response times are listed at 1ms GtG or 0.3ms MPRT, and the monitor supports Adaptive‑Sync with Nvidia G‑Sync compatibility.

Connectivity includes a single DisplayPort 1.4 connection to hit the full 260Hz refresh rate, plus two HDMI 2.0 ports supporting 1440p gameplay at 120Hz for current-gen consoles. Built-in 2x 2W stereo speakers provide basic audio output, while AOC's G-Menu desktop software handles display settings.

The included ergonomic stand allows 130mm of height adjustment, -3° to 21° tilt, -28° to +28° swivel, and a -90° to +90° pivot for portrait use. Eye comfort features include flicker-free technology and low blue mode. AOC backs the monitor with a three-year warranty – all in all, not bad for £229.

KitGuru says: A 260Hz Fast IPS QHD monitor with full ergonomic support for £229 makes the Q27G4ZRAD/01 quite a competitive option on paper.

Following its showcase at Computex 2026, BenQ is officially releasing the Mobiuz EX271QMZ gaming monitor to the market. The display features a 26.5-inch 3rd Gen QD-OLED panel with a QHD resolution, a 240Hz refresh rate, and a 0.03ms GTG response time.

The Mobiuz EX271QMZ QD-OLED gaming monitor features AMD FreeSync Premium certification and BenQ's Color Shuttle platform, providing access to more than 120 game-specific colour profiles. Built-in tools include a crosshair, FPS counter, Blur Reduction, Color Vibrance, and Light Tuner. Peak HDR brightness reaches 400nits while typical SDR brightness sits at 200nits, supported by a 1,500,000:1 contrast ratio. Additionally, colour coverage spans 99% of the P3 space across 1.07 billion colours. Other features include Spectral Color (factory calibration) and High Pixel Contrast (image enhancer).

Panel longevity is managed through the Intelligent OLED Protection Suite, which includes Pixel Refresh, Idle Dimmer, Logo Dimming, and Pixel Shift. BenQ replaces traditional ABL behaviour with Brightness Flow technology to stabilise luminance in real time, pairing it with a graphene film layer to improve heat dispersion. Display outputs cover two HDMI 2.1 ports and a DisplayPort 1.4 connection, alongside dual 2W speakers and a headphone jack. Physical adjustment options offer up to 100mm of height adjustment, -5° to 15° tilt, and 15° swivel in either direction, supported by TÜV eye comfort certification.

KitGuru says: BenQ's latest Mobiuz display pairs a fast 240Hz 3rd Gen QD-OLED panel with dedicated thermal management and software colour profiles for competitive gamers.

AOC has quietly unveiled the Q25G11SE6, a 24.5inch Fast IPS gaming monitor featuring a QHD resolution, a 360Hz native refresh rate, and a 0.3ms MPRT response time.

The Q25G11SE6 (via DisplaySpecifications) display achieves its maximum 360Hz refresh rate via DisplayPort 1.4 using Display Stream Compression (DSC), while capping at 320Hz over HDMI 2.1 with DSC. Adaptive-Sync technology handles motion smoothness alongside FreeSync support, supported by low input lag and MBR/MBR Sync low-motion-blur features. Built-in gaming options include FPS and RTS modes, dynamic crosshair overlays, sniper scope functions, dark-field control, shadow enhancement, and a frame counter, all configurable through AOC's G-Menu software.

Color coverage spans 100% of sRGB and 95% of DCI-P3 colour gamuts, with factory calibration guaranteeing a deltaE below 2. Users can adjust colour settings themselves using the six-axis colour adjustments. SDR brightness is rated at 350nits and HDR performance at 400nits under the HDR10 standard. Native contrast sits at 1300:1.

Physical connectivity consists of HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 1.4, and an audio output. For multitasking, the unit supports picture-by-picture (PBP) and picture-in-picture (PIP) modes across two signal sources. Eye-care features include a hardware low-blue-light panel and flicker-free operation. The included stand provides tilt adjustments only.

KitGuru says: AOC's Q25G11SE6 360Hz refresh rate into a compact 24.5inch QHD panel is rather interesting, though users looking for ergonomic stand options will need to look elsewhere.

AOC is adding another excellent looking gaming monitor to its line-up, this one with support for frame rates as high as 500Hz, while keeping the price below £250.

The AOC GAMING CQ32G4ZA is a 31.5-inch curved monitor that combines a 1500R Fast VA panel with Triple Refresh Rate technology, response times of 0.3ms MPRT as well as DisplayHDR 400 support and 95 % DCI-P3 colour coverage. It is the first AOC monitor to offer three selectable resolution and refresh rate combinations in a single display, enabling refresh rates as high as 500Hz.

To hit 500Hz, the resolution does need to come down to 720p. At 1080p, the monitor still manages a highly respectable 360Hz, and at native QHD, you still get a 260Hz refresh rate, so even at its slowest, it is still faster than many of the gaming displays currently out there.

The monitor doesn't demand a massive price tag either. According to AOC, the monitor will be available starting in December, priced around £239.99.

KitGuru Says: Would you like one of these for your desk?

AOC has listed a new 27-inch gaming monitor, the Q27G4SM, on its Chinese website. Built around a Fast IPS panel and an 1152-zone Quantum Dot Mini-LED backlight, the display delivers a 2560×1440 resolution, a 340Hz refresh rate, and VESA DisplayHDR 1000 certification.

According to the official datasheet (via Prad), the monitor achieves a peak brightness of 1200nits with a 10-bit colour depth and a 1 ms G2G response time. Colour coverage reaches 100% sRGB and 99% DCI-P3 with a Delta-E accuracy rating under 2, while typical power consumption is rated at 35W. FreeSync is on board to prevent screen tearing, backed by a selectable motion blur reduction mode.

Display features include picture-in-picture and picture-by-picture viewing, an FPS counter, and a crosshair overlay. Physical connectivity options consist of two HDMI 2.1 inputs, one DisplayPort 1.4 connection, and a headphone output. The included stand supports tilt, swivel, and pivot, along with 130mm height adjustment and 100x100mm VESA mounting support. Release timing and pricing outside of China remain unconfirmed.

KitGuru says: Pairing 1152 Mini-LED dimming zones to a 340Hz 1440p Fast IPS panel makes the Q27G4SM a compelling display option if AOC brings it to Western markets.

AOC has launched the Q27G4KDP OLED gaming monitor in China, featuring a dual-mode design that lets users switch between QHD at 540Hz and HD at 720Hz.

According to DisplaySpecifications, the AOC Q27G4KDP uses LG's 4th-generation OLED panel with a 4-stack Primary RGB Tandem structure and AGLR (anti-glare low reflection) technology. The 27-inch WOLED panel provides native 10-bit colour, 99.5% DCI-P3 gamut coverage, and a factory-calibrated average ΔE < 2. According to AOC, the monitor achieves a peak brightness of 1500 nits in HDR highlights and carries the VESA DisplayHDR True Black 500 certification. For eye comfort, the unit incorporates hardware low-blue-light technology and is TÜV-certified as flicker-free.

AOC specifies a grey-to-grey response time of 0.02ms. The Q27G4KDP is officially NVIDIA G-Sync compatible and features VESA ClearMR 21000 certification. Integrated gaming tools include Dark Field Control, Game Color, crosshair overlays, dynamic reticle options, and a real-time frame-rate counter.

Connectivity includes DisplayPort 2.1 and two HDMI 2.1 ports, along with USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports and an audio output. The included stand provides height, tilt, swivel, and pivot adjustments. Software features include Picture-in-Picture, Picture-by-Picture, and customisation via AOC G-Menu.

KitGuru says: The Q27G4KDP seems to be a more affordable alternative to the AGON Pro AGP277QKD, offering pretty much the same feature set in a more basic-looking package.

Alienware has launched the AW2726DM, a 27-inch QD-OLED gaming monitor that's most likely the cheapest OLED-type panel in the market. However, as you might expect, it has some limitations, most obviously in its brightness output.

The Alienware AW2726DM (via NotebookCheck) features a QHD resolution of 2560×1440 and a maximum refresh rate of 240Hz. Aimed at the budget-friendly segment, the monitor features a 3-year warranty that covers OLED burn-in. The QD-OLED panel is rated for a typical brightness of 200 nits, peaking at 400 nits in HDR mode. The display provides a 0.03ms response time and 99% DCI-P3 coverage. The 10-bit colour depth panel supports HDR content, but it's not VESA-certified. For a tear-free experience, the monitor supports AMD FreeSync Premium, though official G-Sync compatibility is not listed in the specifications.

Connectivity consists of one DisplayPort 1.4 port, which is required to achieve the full 240Hz refresh rate at 1440p. Two HDMI 2.1 ports are also provided, supporting native resolutions up to 120Hz. A dedicated headphone jack is integrated into the chassis for audio output.

The AW2726DM features a minimalist black design without RGB lighting. The included stand offers ergonomic adjustments for height, tilt, swivel, and pivot. To manage thermal performance and mitigate the risk of permanent image retention, the panel is equipped with a graphite-film heatsink. The monitor is available now for $349.99.

KitGuru says: It's surprising to see the cheapest QD-OLED monitor coming from a brand such as Alienware. Still, with a price tag like that, it is hard to imagine other monitor makers won't follow suit with more midrange OLED offerings. 

Philips has introduced the Evnia 27M2G5800, a 27-inch gaming monitor featuring a dual-mode Fast IPS panel. The display allows users to switch between a native 5K resolution for high-fidelity tasks and a high-refresh QHD mode for competitive gaming. 

According to ITHome, the Evnia 27M2G5800 has a native resolution of 5120×2880, with a pixel density of 217 PPI. In 5K mode, the monitor supports a native 165Hz refresh rate, which can be overclocked to 180Hz. Alternatively, the display can be toggled to a 2560×1440 QHD mode to unlock refresh rates up to 330Hz.

Philips rates the display at a peak brightness of 500 nits and a 1000:1 contrast ratio. It features VESA DisplayHDR 400 certification and supports adaptive sync, including official G-Sync compatibility. Also, the brand claims a 1ms GtG response time, a 10-bit colour depth, and a wide colour gamut coverage (Adobe RGB: 95%, DCI-P3: 98%, sRGB: 137%).

Connectivity is handled by two HDMI 2.1 ports and a single DisplayPort 2.1. The latter is required to utilise the 5K resolution at its 180Hz overclocked limit. The monitor also features a USB hub with one USB-B upstream port and two USB-A downstream ports, along with a 3.5mm headphone jack. Integrated software features include Shadow Boost, Smart Crosshair, and Smart MBR. It is currently listed at 4999 yuan (£544).

KitGuru says: Although the converted price makes this monitor quite enticing, if it ever comes to the West, it won't likely come as cheaply. Still, the Evnia 27M2G5800 looks like a very versatile monitor for anything you throw at it.

TCL held a major display showcase this week, debuting a suite of high-performance monitors that push the boundaries of refresh rate and panel technology. Leading the announcement is the company's first 1040 Hz Mini LED gaming monitor, alongside a premium 31.5-inch 4K OLED model designed in collaboration with Bang & Olufsen. While these units are initially launching in the Chinese market, they represent a significant leap in the “dual-mode” display trend.

The highlight of the event (via Leikeji) was TCL's new 31.5-inch OLED+ monitor, designed to compete directly with Samsung's latest QD-OLED offerings. This screen features a 4K resolution (3840 x 2160) at a 240 Hz refresh rate, but it also includes a “dual-mode” capability that allows it to reach 480 Hz at 1080p. TCL is marketing this as “OLED+” because of its vertical sub-pixel layout, which aims to solve common text clarity issues and reduce the “purple tint” glare typically found on older OLED panels. The display boasts a 1300-nit peak brightness, 10-bit colour depth, a near-instant 0.03 ms G2G response time, and a premium audio system co-designed by Bang & Olufsen.

For esports enthusiasts, TCL introduced the 27P2A Ultra Mini LED monitor that sets a new industry standard for speed. While its native resolution is 1440p at 550 Hz, the dual-mode function enables it to reach a staggering 1040 Hz at 720p. This monitor uses TCL CSOT's proprietary HFS (IPS-type) panel and “Tmoc Super Dynamic Sharpness” tuning to ensure motion remains clear even at such extreme frame rates, promising a 1ms G2G response time spec and 0.1ms MPRT. The specific number of dimming zones remains undisclosed.

TCL also expanded its mainstream offerings with the 27-inch 27C3A Pro, a more affordable HFS display. The 27-inch model delivers a 4K resolution at 165 Hz (switching to 320 Hz at 1080p) and features 2304 local dimming zones. This provides an exceptional 2200-nit peak XDR brightness, paired with the 1 ms G2G response time spec, a 0.2 ms MPRT spec, and 10-bit colour depth.

Pricing for the P2A Ultra is still undisclosed, but the X3A will cost 5999 yuan, and the 27C3A Pro (£649) will cost 3199 yuan (£346).

KitGuru says: Which of these three new TCL monitors looks the best fit for you?

Acer has expanded its Nitro display family with the Nitro ED340CUR W0bmiipx, a 34-inch ultrawide monitor designed to bring high-refresh-rate gaming to the value-conscious segment. This model pairs a 1500R curved VA panel with a 3440 x 1440 (UWQHD) resolution, offering the expansive field of view that has become a staple for simulation fans and multitasking professionals alike.

Featuring a 240 Hz refresh rate, the ED340CUR W0 (via DisplaySpecifications) brings a significant jump over previous iterations of the ED340 series, which typically maxed out at 165/180Hz. This, combined with AMD FreeSync Premium support, ensures fluid motion and reduced screen tearing in fast-paced titles. The panel uses an 8-bit + FRC (Frame Rate Control) method to achieve 10-bit colour depth, covering 99% of the sRGB colour space. As is typical of VA technology, the monitor boasts a high 3000:1 static contrast ratio. However, its peak brightness is rated at a modest 250 nits, making its HDR10 support more of a baseline compatibility feature than a transformative visual experience.

The monitor follows Acer's streamlined “ZeroFrame” aesthetic, maximising screen real estate by minimising bezel width. The included stand is tilt-only, which is a common trade-off in the budget category. However, the unit is fully compatible with 100 x 100 mm VESA mounts for those who require height or swivel adjustment. Connectivity options include dual HDMI 2.1 ports, a DisplayPort 1.4 input, and integrated 2W speakers for basic audio.

Additionally, Acer has packed the display with its VisionCare suite, including Blue Light Shield Pro, flicker-free technology, and a low-dimming feature. These additions, combined with the “Super Sharpness” processing, position the ED340CUR W0 as a versatile tool for both competitive gaming and general office productivity. The monitor is now available for $349.99.

KitGuru says: It's impressive to see 240Hz in a 34-inch UWQHD monitor at this price point. For gamers coming from older 60Hz panels, the move to 240Hz on a curved 34-inch panel is one of the most cost-effective ways to fundamentally change how your gaming setup feels in 2026, assuming your system can support such a refresh rate.

If you are looking for a wallet-friendly monitor upgrade then MSI has a great option available for UK gamers this week. Currently, the MAG 275CQF E18 is 37% off.

The MSI MAG 275CQF E18 is a curved 27-inch QHD (1440p) gaming monitor with a Rapid VA panel and a 180Hz refresh rate, giving you a significant boost over typical 120Hz and 144Hz displays. The curvature here is rated at 1500R, giving it a slight wrap-around effect in your periphery for more immersive gaming.

In terms of colour accuracy, this monitor supports 136% sRGB, 94% DCI‑P3, 90% Adobe RGB, with a 10-bit depth. For response time, you are looking at a minimum of 0.5ms GtG, and you'll also get HDR support too. Connectivity-wise, the monitor ships with 1x DisplayPort 1.4a, along with two HDMI 2.0b ports, with HDMI-CEC included so you can wake the monitor when powering on a console.

Currently, the MSI MAG 275CQF E18 gaming monitor is 37% off on Amazon, bringing the price down to £119.

KitGuru Says: At just under £120, you can't really go wrong with a monitor spec like this.
