Reviewer score 39% (normalized by Neofiliac)
Reviewers from rtings have found:
The HP OMEN 27i is a good monitor for most uses, but it's best-suited for gaming. It has an outstanding response time, low input lag, and it supports FreeSync. On the other hand, the low contrast ratio and disappointing accuracy out-of-the-box make it only a decent choice for multimedia.
Pros
  • Outstanding response time
  • Good peak brightness and good reflection handling
  • FreeSync variable refresh rate
  • Wide viewing angles
Cons
  • Low contrast ratio
  • Disappointing accuracy out-of-the-box
  • Poor black uniformity

t3[2]

Reviewer score 82% (normalized by Neofiliac)
Reviewers from t3 have found:
The HP Omen 27i is a compact gaming monitor with a 165Hz refresh rate. It has two lighting features, one downlight and one backlight, and there are a total of 16.8 million colours to pick from. The display covers 98 percent of the DCI-P3 colour space, making it ideal for professional creatives as well as gamers.
Pros
  • Excellent contrast and colours
  • Decent build quality
  • Easy to set up
Cons
  • No HDR
  • No integrated speakers

tomshardware[3]

Reviewer score 76% (normalized by Neofiliac)
Reviewers from tomshardware have found:
The Omen 27i is a very versatile monitor, equally at home playing games with demanding graphics or pushing through workday tasks. The large color gamut was apparent in everything we did, from Windows desktop background photos to movies and games of all types. The 27i tracks 2.2 pretty well, but some might prefer a darker or lighter luminance curve.
Pros
  • Wide color gamut
  • Excellent gaming performance
  • Excellent dynamic contrast
Cons
  • No sRGB mode
  • No HDR support
