Product Overview

Lenovo ThinkVision P27u-20 is a premium 27-inch 4K UHD monitor designed for professionals. It boasts an IPS panel with over 99% coverage of DCI-P3 and Adobe RGB color spaces but retails at a fraction of the cost of a full-on professional monitor.
The P27u-20, compared to the similarly-designed P27h-20 from 2020, prioritizes image quality. Not only is resolution increased to 4K, but the monitor also comes with a richer set of I/O options and a more up-to-date USB hub: HDMI 2.0 and Thunderbolt 4 are both supported.
As usual, the ThinkVision P27u-20 has a simple Raven Black design that is unquestionably Lenovo. The included stand offers tilt, swivel, pivot, and height adjustments, too.
For home users, especially gamers, Lenovo also unveiled two affordable monitors suitable for general computing and gaming at the same time.
