About this product
The ViewSonic OMNI VX2718-2KPC-MHD is a 27-inch curved gaming monitor with a 2560x1440 resolution, 165Hz refresh rate, and 1ms response time.

Features built-in speakers, Adaptive-Sync, anti-glare, and VESA mount compatibility. Suitable for gaming, graphic design, and casual computing.
Our take
Upgrading to 1440p on a curved 27-inch display has been great for my gaming setup. The ViewSonic OMNI VX2718-2KPC-MHD offers a crisp 165Hz experience with quick 1ms response times. The VA panel's 4000:1 contrast ratio really makes dark scenes pop, though the 250-nit brightness could be punchier for brightly lit rooms. Adaptive-Sync works well to eliminate screen tearing, and the HDMI 2.0 port supports high refresh rates at 1440p. Built-in speakers are mediocre at best. The curved design adds immersion, and the anti-glare coating is helpful. For around $200, this monitor strikes a nice balance between price and performance for mid-range gaming.
