Omen by HP 27 Gaming Monitor Review https://www.kitguru.net/peripherals/monitors/edward-chester/omen-by-hp-27-gaming-monitor-review/ https://www.kitguru.net/peripherals/monitors/edward-chester/omen-by-hp-27-gaming-monitor-review/#respond Wed, 17 Oct 2018 09:22:16 +0000 https://www.kitguru.net/?p=389688 It's a very stylish monitor from HP - but can it justify the £699 asking price?

The post Omen by HP 27 Gaming Monitor Review first appeared on KitGuru.]]>
HP isn’t perhaps the first company that springs to mind when it comes to PC gaming but its Omen brand has been steadily making a name for itself thanks to some stylish PCs and laptops. Now it has branched out into desktop monitors too, and the Omen by HP 27 makes a striking impression.

With its narrow bezels, slim metal stand and moody all-black colour scheme, it’s arguably the best looking display of its type. You get a high-end, if fairly typical spec sheet too, with a 2,560 x 1,440 resolution, a 144Hz (overclockable to 165Hz) TN-type LCD panel and G-Sync, so this is a serious gaming tool.

The big downside is price. Costing £699, this is the most expensive display of its kind. A chunk of that is down to the inclusion of G-Sync but this is still around £100 more than most direct rivals and double the price of more basic 144Hz gaming displays. Let’s find out if HP has done enough to justify that high price.

Specifications:

  • Screen size: 27-inch, 16:9 aspect
  • Native resolution: 2,560 x 1,440
  • Refresh rate: 144Hz (overclockable to 165Hz)
  • Panel type: TN
  • Contrast ratio: 1,000:1 native
  • Brightness: 400cd/m2
  • Response time: 1ms grey-to-grey
  • Display inputs: DisplayPort, HDMI
  • USB hub: USB 3.0, two ports
  • Tilt: Yes
  • Raise: Yes
  • Swivel: No
  • Pivot: No
  • VESA: Yes
  • Warranty: 3 years

Retail Price: £699 (inc. VAT)
