AOC has introduced the Agon Pro AGP277QKP, a new 27-inch QHD (2560×1440) gaming monitor launched with circular polarisation technology for the Chinese market. Built around a Fast IPS panel, the display delivers a 425Hz refresh rate over a full-bandwidth DisplayPort 2.1 input or dual HDMI 2.1 connections.
The monitor (via DisplaySpecifications) features a 2000:1 static contrast ratio, 10.7 billion colour output, and factory calibration with a ΔE < 2. Colour gamut coverage spans 100% of sRGB and 95% DCI-P3. Certified to the VESA DisplayHDR 400 standard, the display achieves a peak brightness of 450 nits in HDR mode. For motion performance, the hardware is rated for a 0.3ms MPRT and 1ms GTG response time, supported by Motion Blur Reduction (MBR), MBR Sync, and Nvidia G-Sync Compatible validation.
The display integrates circular polarisation technology to simulate natural light, alongside hardware-level low-blue-light protection and flicker-free backlighting. Productivity features include Picture-in-Picture (PIP) and Picture-by-Picture (PBP) modes, plus an integrated USB hub consisting of three USB 3.2 Gen1 ports and a fast-charging upstream port. Software customisation is managed through the AOC G-Menu suite, which provides access to visibility adjustments such as Dark Boost and Shadow Control.
The monitor's design includes narrow bezels, a multi-edge base, and a built-in retractable headphone hook. The bundled stand supports 150mm height adjustment, along with tilt, swivel, and full pivot rotation. Ambient lighting is provided by the integrated Light FX system, which offers 14 preset effects and over 10 million colour combinations. The manufacturer has not confirmed pricing and international availability.
KitGuru says: Monitors with circular polarisation are becoming increasingly more popular, and it may even soon become standard. In Europe/UK, options with this tech are still limited, but if what's happening in China replicates in other regions, it shouldn't take long to see a flood of these displays on the shelves.
