Reviewer score 48%The Acer Nitro VG271UP has great screen real estate and outstanding viewing angles. It performs well in most office environments with decent reflection handling and good peak brightness. Unfortunately, it's not a good choice for dark room viewing with a mediocre contrast ratio and terrible black uniformity. The 1440p, 27 inch screen is great for multitasking and makes it easier to see more of your work at once.
