External Reviews

Reviewer score 60% (normalized by Neofiliac)
Reviewers from cnet have found:
The Razer Raptor 27 is the company's first dip into the seething waters of the gaming display market. Its bright 27-inch, 2,560x1,440-pixel panel is quite good, and its feature set hits most of the right notes. It tilts 90 degrees so you can get to the connectors underneath, which is a big convenience.
Pros
  • G-Sync and G-Sync compatible adaptive refresh
  • Stunningly stylized design
Cons
  • Cables don't glide easily through channels
  • Rubbery material leaves marks on surfaces

digitaltrends[2]

Reviewer score 86% (normalized by Neofiliac)
Reviewers from digitaltrends have found:
Razer's Raptor 27 is a 27-inch IPS display with a 144Hz refresh rate and a one-millisecond response time. The frame, base, and stand are all made of machined aluminum, finished in a matte black to match Razer laptops. Chroma makes its presence known, though Razer hasn't glued LED strips to every possible surface.
Pros
  • HDR400, FreeSync 2, and 144Hz refresh rate
  • Solid build quality
Cons
  • No VESA mounting
  • No G-Sync

Reviewers from laptopmag have found:
The Razer Raptor 27 boasts a 27-inch, 2560 x 1400-resolution display with a refresh rate of 144 Hz. The IPS panel supports HDR400, which means it has a wide color gamut and a high maximum brightness. The large panel meant I could split the screen in half and work on multiple windows simultaneously.
Pros
  • Sleek design
  • Gorgeous display
  • Excellent color accuracy
Cons
  • No sRGB mode

pcmag[4]

Reviewer score 90% (normalized by Neofiliac)
Reviewers from pcmag have found:
The Razer Raptor 27 is the company's first gaming monitor. It has a 144Hz refresh rate and supports both AMD's FreeSync and Nvidia's G-Sync adaptive-sync technologies. It also has a near-record-low input-lag time of just 1.7ms. At $699, it's the top end of what you should spend on a 27-inch display.
Pros
  • Gorgeous 144Hz display
  • Excellent color accuracy
  • Good contrast ratio
Cons
  • No dedicated G-Sync support

rtings[5]

Reviewer score 79% (normalized by Neofiliac)
Reviewers from rtings have found:
The Razer Raptor 27 is a great gaming monitor with an impressive design, but slightly worse motion handling than most similar models. The LG 27GL850-B has a much faster response time, resulting in much clearer motion with almost no noticeable blur behind fast-moving objects. The Razer has a significantly better build quality and supports HDR. The ASUS has a slightly higher contrast ratio, better black uniformity, and significantly better reflection handling.
Pros
  • Fast response time
  • High refresh rate
  • Excellent contrast ratio
  • RGB lighting feature
Cons
  • No FreeSync support
  • No adjustable stand

tomsguide[6]

Reviewers from tomsguide have found:
The Razer Raptor 27 has a lovely screen, smart design and excellent gaming performance. This 27-inch 1440p display blows past one of its primary competitors, the Dell 24 Monitor. But the interface is a bit of a pain to navigate, and you can't fine-tune the LED's Chroma options.
Pros
  • Gorgeous 1440p display
  • Excellent gaming performance
  • Solid build quality
Cons
  • Lackluster LED strip
  • No HDMI or DisplayPort support

tomshardware[7]

Reviewer score 79% (normalized by Neofiliac)
Reviewers from tomshardware have found:
The Raptor 27's image is reasonably accurate out of the box, but it benefits from calibration. Tweakers will want to make use of the three gamma presets and single-point white balance controls. The only caveat is that DCI-P3 is the one and only available color gamut.
Pros
  • Super-fast response times
  • Excellent contrast
  • HDR color
Cons
  • No true sRGB mode
  • No HDMI 2.0 or DisplayPort 1.4 ports
