Product Overview

ViewSonic XG270QC is a mainstream 27-inch QHD 1500R-curved gaming monitor in ViewSonic's 2020 lineup. It is powered by a basic 8-bit MVA panel with 165 Hz refresh rate.
Notably, this monitor supports HDR up to DisplayHDR 400. Its 1500R curvature provides a more immersive visual experience. In terms of color reproduction, one can expect above average performance. The included stand comes with tilt, swivel, and height adjustments that make for a more ergonomic viewing experience. Additionally, this monitor can get quite contrasty. It also comes with build-in speakers that make media consumption in a pinch an effortless experience.
Further, the 8-bit panel is rather limiting in terms of color reproduction.

External Reviews

tomsguide[1]

Reviewer score 85% (normalized by Neofiliac)
Reviewers from tomsguide have found:
The ViewSonic Elite XG270QC features a curved 27-inch screen. The resolution maxes out at 1440p, which is good for gaming, but perhaps not as forward-looking as it could be. It reaches an average brightness of 524 nits, which blows past the competition.
Pros
  • Gorgeous 27-inch screen
  • Good color vibrancy
  • Good presets
Cons
  • Can be difficult to set up
  • Doesn't bend very far forward

Reviewer score 86% (normalized by Neofiliac)
Reviewers from tomshardware have found:
The ViewSonic XG270QC is very accurate out of the box in its default Custom 1 picture mode. There is an sRGB option in the color temp menu, but it does not reduce the color gamut from DCI-P3. Sharpness is set to a default value of 75, which causes some visible ringing around contrasting objects.
Pros
  • Bright, colorful QHD resolution
  • Excellent contrast and sharp detail
  • Easy to set up and use
Cons
  • Edge enhancement can be hard to read
  • No sRGB mode
