Product Overview

MSI G27C5 E2 is an affordable 27-inch FHD curved monitor in MSI's 2022 lineup. It is powered by a basic 8-bit VA panel. It is essentially an updated version of the Optix G27C5 from two years before.

Its 1500R curvature provides a more immersive visual experience. In terms of color reproduction, one can expect above average performance. Additionally, this monitor can get quite contrasty.

In terms of drawbacks, this monitor lacks HDR support, comes with limited adjustments, and is not very bright. Further, the 8-bit panel is rather limiting in terms of color reproduction.
