Customer Ratings & Reviews

As other reviewers have stated, this is a fantastic monitor for the price. No other monitor is in this price point for 5ms. Games(World of Warcraft, Diablo 3, Grim Dawn, Path of Exile) are beautiful, great colors and no issues. I would recommend this monitor to friends over other big name companies.

Bought a smaller monitor with less features at FRY's before I saw this "bad boy" at Best Buy. After comparing the features, I returned the smaller monitor to Fry's for a refund and bought this larger monitor from Best Buy for a "fistful of dollar" more and it was worth the extra price. Buying a generic name AOC was a risk, but now after a month, I'm happy about the purchase.

Bought this monitor around mid July 2014 from Best Buy. 1st week of January 2015 the monitor started producing white screens and blank screens. February 2015 the monitor would hardly work at all. I contacted AOC via website and was directed to a service center for RMA process. UPS was the recommended carrier by the service center, UPS wanted $200.00 to ship the monitor via 2 day so I chose the week+ shipping at $50.00 (my cost). The service center had the monitor for a week approximately, then emailed me a UPS tracking number. I requested it be held for pickup at UPS hub. I arrived at UPS hub to pickup package, the box had not one piece of tape affixed to secure the box for shipping. The box was open and "flapping". I took the box home, opened it to find a new replacement monitor with a scratch on the upper left portion of the screen. I emailed the service center twice, over a week ago, no response. I emailed AOC via their website email structure, over a week ago, no response. The faulty monitor i shipped in for RMA was in brand new condition with the wrap still protecting the screen edges and stand. Mind you, I thoroughly taped each side of the box for shipment across the country. The defective unit was about 6 months old. The service center sent a replacement unit with a scratch on the screen, staring straight at my face, every time I use it. My OCD is getting the better of me at this point. I'm highly disappointed and will never buy a AOC product again. Just my experience.

The size of the monitor for the money is your biggest value here. The controls for adjusting the thing are about as inconvenient and complicated as they could be in a flat monitor. Don't discount it totally, for the money it is a solid value, just don't expect top-of-the-line performance.

I love this monitor now. It is fantastic with an online newspaper; it is actually easier to read than the real newspaper! The screen size means I can have a browser open while another program is running. It's really increased my options as to screen use. But.....it didn't start out that way. The screen was so much brighter than my 19 inch monitor.....I worried about this. I tried adjusting the different settings, called up AOC tech support, I actually bought sunglasses in case I needed to tone down the brightness. (Opening the curtains to sunlight offsets the light from the screen.) However, I found over time I didn't need to worry about that as much. It hasn't hurt my eyes. It actually has worked out just fine.

the screen was purchased after review and we love it. Looka t computer every day and play games . we are older so being able to read and see the monitor was very important it has satisfied our needs very well love it.

I originally bought two of these because they are the best priced monitors. I was questioning myself because they are AOC, but they lived up to being an amazing monitor. I returned one because they were really big and one twenty-seven inch works perfectly. They also have AOC software were you can split your monitor into four screens. Keep in mind, its not four individual start screens or like hooking up four monitors. They just make it so you can drag and drop the screen into four sections, three sections, etc.. I did notice that it did not work with all applications, but majority. Web browsers and microsoft programs worked well. I would suggest this monitor to EVERYONE!

I bought this product 1 month ago. primarily for video gaming. I have connect it with Wii U and PS3 using HDMI. Till now I am satisfied with the product. Low price ($180) for the size. Sound was fine for me how ever can't remote control for volume.

Got this while on sale for a great price. I replaced a 24" HDTV with this and am very pleased with the picture quality. The menu buttons are not really designed for easy to get to use but once you get everything set up it is fine. Should have bought 3.

These guys have fantastic picture quality and all the bells and whistles of other higher priced monitors. Super happy with the 5 of them i purchased to run my system.

After having used a 19" monitor for years we decided to go to a 27" due to many reports that I file on line. This monitor has all the bells and whistles that I was looking for and its setup was easy.

I am enjoying the AOC 27" monitor. I specifically like the feature of the monitor that includes both HDMI and traditional multi-pin connectors to the computer. This flexibility is positive. I am pleased with the picture and had zero pixel problems. The one negative point has nothing to do with the actual product; more with the AOC website/CD that comes with the product. Had a devil of a time trying to dowload and install the drivers for the monitor. Initially was using just the Generic PDP driver that comes with my laptop. Eventually was able to install the driver but it was a struggle. Contacting AOC customer service was/is the typical nightmare and I just gave up. The warranty of 3 years for parts and labor and 1 year for the LCD panel seems to be acceptable.

This monitor looks great and is priced better than other monitors its size. I'm not a gamer, so I don't know how well it performs that way, but for regular computer use and programming it's perfect!

Bought it for $189. Best price for 27 inch. One dead pixel in the middle of the screen, but isn't too much of a bother. Otherwise, nice big screen with good image quality.

I found this monitor on sale and for under $200, this was a great buy! I actually bought two, one for me and one for my husband. We're avid gamers and the large screens are fantastic for long gaming sessions. The buttons on the monitor are very misleading in their location as well as very difficult to press (stiff, takes a lot of pressure to utilize). Only other issue would maybe be that the screen can not be moved/tilted. So, if you prefer a particular position, you may need to look into a different stand for it.

The screen is big the cost is low. The sound isn't the greatest but for the price I am not complaining too much. You can always plug speakers into your computer. If on sale this is a great purchase.

I bought this to use for work. Great screen--I can display an entire MS Project file and be able to read the details. Price was also good ($150 on sale).

Compared other 27" monitors for more money and chose this one - am very pleased. Just wish the stand swiveled up and down for height but most of them dont

I like this monitor. it has great resolution and was less expensive than some of the others that have similar refresh ratings and other technical aspects

I reviewed several monitors that were 27 inches and was trying to decide between Samsung and this AOC. I went with the AOC mainly for the price only $169 but also as the rated refresh rate was only 2ms. And I couldn't be happier works great no ghosting while playing FPS like black ops 3 colors are crisp and clean.
