Review: Not bad, but don't use the 60hz strobe mode. - Okay so I got this because of the strobe mode. I am a gamer at heart, but I got into actually testing monitors on my free time especially when companies like RTINGs has a stupid vote system instead of just buying all and working hard.... I mean their job is reviews but they still limit themselves which doesn't make sense. Then you have youtubers which will lie about a product because they got it for free, calling a bad monitor "good" for the sake of not making the monitor maker "overlord" mad at them for a bad review. "no more free products if you say this monitor is crap" type of deal. Which generally gives RTINGs the upper hand as they buy all their displays for testing. No way for manufacturers to influence the review process with a heavy hand. So, where to start. Its an "fast IPS" 1080p 240hz display. The fit and finish is nice. I had zero dead pixels. The color is quite bad, but I have a tuning device which allows me to get more accurate color! So I color calibrated using my x-rite iDisplay pro (you can buy them here on desertcart like me!) and got that sorted out.... You can find a post on BlurBusters forums where I did 240hz pixel response testing. Its pretty good. Not as fast as say an $800 LG nano-ips monitor, but fast enough compared to other monitors even some 200-300 bucks more expensive. FOR THE PRICE, this monitor is an absolute champ. I also took the blurbusters advice on the flicker backlight. This monitor, you can download a custom program from the viewsonic website which is in collaboration with blurbusters, where you can tweak the purexp settings, you can not only run through the preset modes, but you can also run a custom mode where you are given varying degrees of adjustment that most other monitors do not give you. WITH THAT IN MIND, I tried out the factory 240hz mode with the purexp enabled. Didn't seem all that special. To me, it felt like my old Alienware TN panel at 240hz without flicker backlight. I would say you probably don't even need purexp at 240hz. If you are someone who cannot use flicker backlight due to sensitivity, then don't. This monitor even without flickering at 240hz is pretty good. BUT, I also tried the 120hz mode using "large vertical pixel totals" using a custom resolution. This is to test to see if the custom mode works well enough or not. AND I HAVE TO BE HONEST, the 120hz with a custom flicker setting, works BETTER than 240hz with and without purexp enabled. I can say the motion CLARITY is amazing using this custom mode. However, you have to know how to setup a custom resolution to get this mode to work. Anyway, the motion clarity is INSANE. Its just that good. I can't believe how good it is! Playing FPS titles like Call of Duty, Battlefield, Halo, its way better than 240hz. I mean way better. Now on that note, and yes I am splitting this part, this is a warning. The 60hz mode for flicker. Don't use it. I don't care how much blurbusters boasts how amazing it is for console gaming. The 60hz flicker WILL hurt your eyes. Even doing the "large vertical pixel totals" to further tweak 60hz strobing, doesn't help. I enabled this mode and sure enough, my eyes started hurting INSTANTLY. I LITERALLY could not look at the monitor. I would wince and recoil at how bad the flickering is. Now don't get me wrong, I can handle flicker. I used to party with people with tons of strobe lights in the room listening to house/dubstep/trance/dnb/etc. This is WORSE. Your eyes just don't want to look at the screen. I even started having my eye water it was so bad. The 120hz mode, no issue, but 60hz mode, killing me. So don't use it. This is a warning. On the whole, for about 300-330 this monitor is amazing. I could honestly say I would pay MORE for this monitor if they included the "large vertical total" mode as part of the EDID information so users wouldn't have to go through the trouble of running a custom resolution to do it. The motion clarity you get is just THAT AMAZING. I could see in the future when Display Port 2.0 finally releases both in monitors and graphics cards, that we could get large vertical totals for 240hz which would make that even more amazing (need the higher bandwidth to do it. currently you are locked at about 120hz to 144hz with large vertical totals due to bandwidth limitations of HDMI2.0 and DP1.4). I would highly recommend this monitor to anyone in this price bracket. If you can afford more, obviously there are better displays out there. But for the price, amazing.
Review: Absolutely amazing. - This product is best in class in terms of performance and price. Upgrading from 165hz to 240hz was very noticeable. Reaction times tests are about 15ms faster on average and general clarity in game is improved. this has a great build quality monitor stand is solid and the cable bungee works well, only flaw here is that the monitor buttons are a bit hard to use. For most power users, this would be an excellent choice if you’re looking to upgrade the feel of your games, it’s motion blur technology has been specifically engineered to be best in class for gaming, the only drawback is that pushing this setting to the extreme will decrease backlight brightness dramatically. however, the monitor on its light or normal setting is completely useable and works very well.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this monitor have speakers or headphone jack?**
A: Yes, this monitor has two internal speakers (2W). This monitor also has an audio out / headphone jack port.

**Q: Does it have Dolby vision?**
A: Most monitors do not use Dolby vision only a few Proarts have it

**Q: Is this a ips panel or ahva or what type is it?**
A: The model XG320U is an IPS panel type.

**Q: who tf plays esports at 4k?**
A: It's not the issue of 4k, the question is if you can play the esport game in question at  your desired frame rate. High frame rate over actual monitor refresh rate is still beneficial for esport.  4k is alot more clarity than 1080p and there is a point of no benefit after a certain refresh rate. That said, I have a 4k 240hz monitor and find this monitor lacking in comparison to that one. With a RTX4090 , I can hit over 240 fps in Overwatch full settings., you can turn down all the settings  or keep max settings and drop it to 1440 and get 360+ fps. So esport in 4k isnt really that strange anymore.  The pixels per inch of a 4k at 32 inch is very tight, so 1440p on it is better than on most 1440p monitors.

### ⭐ Rushed and half-baked.
*by A***. on July 16, 2024*

I’ll give Viewsonic praise for their excellent packaging and overall build quality, but most everything else is downhill. The ViewSonic XG272-2K-OLED is a great example of releasing a product at a specific price because the competition has already done so. Yet, in Viewsonic’s case, nothing about this monitor justifies the asking price or your consideration. The UI is both slow and unintuitive. I had issues with settings randomly resetting or being entirely non-functional (BFI in particular). Additional firmware support seems non-existent, so it’s a case of what you see is what you get. I did contact customer service to see if there was a firmware update and they confirmed that I had the latest. The warranty is just odd and clearly rushed. I contacted Viewsonic customer support for clarification and was able to confirm that warranty information is shared between LCD and OLED panels. Specifically, there is no burn-in warranty. Based on customer support’s answer, you will send your monitor to Viewsonic and they will decide if the burn in was intentional or not. I was unable to find the typical burn-in care features in the UI. So there is no burn in warranty nor panel care features. You’re paying the same price as other OLED monitors, and getting much less. The big feature of this panel is support for BFI. I own Viewsonic’s XG2431, it’s a dream for people who prioritize motion clarity. I assumed this OLED panel would have the same level of tweaking, with the benefit of being an OLED. This is not the case. Instead you pretty much get an on and off button where none of the BFI related options seem to do anything. I’d call it broken outside of the fact that it does function. This could have been marvelous if it had the same level of customization as the XG2431. Overall, the ViewSonic XG272-2K-OLED is overpriced, has a rushed feature set, and a non-existent panel burn in warranty. There are way better options available. P.S. The text fringing is REALLY bad. So bad that I was wondering if this is an old 1st Gen LG panel.
