Just checked: PG27 production starts now in May, so mid/late May/early June for first markets depending on how it's being shipped.

Not sure X series yet. It's often mostly waiting for mass-production of panel availability and/or mass production to meet a certain quality standard.

For the record: Monitors don't wait for graphics cards. They just launch on their own schedule.*





My original post:

https://www.inet.se/produkt/2210502/acer-27-predator-x27-4k-144hz-hdr-g-sync-quantum-dot

On this retailer site, the Acer Predator X27 is listed as to be shipped April 5th. Because ASUS usually release their version a little earlier than Acer/the other manufacturers, it is likely that the PG27UQ will be released (assuming that shipping date is correct) during March, this would also still stick to the Q1 2018 release window.


For reference, see the posts in this thread:

I came to a conclusion in myopinion.
Without direct light led (OLED, MicroLed), HDR will never looks good or good at it should be, FALD technology has huge disadvantages especially the HALO effect.
Not worth 2500$.

You guys think miniLED's are guna be cheaper? Keep dreaming. microled"s are no where near being implemented in TV's let alone monitors. Microled's will also be super expensive. A lot more than OLED.


Unless all you do is stare at a blackscreen with your mouse pointer, halo is not an issue. It could be better more controlled illumination but that would probably mean more time and costs.

You guys complaining about this monitor's price should do some research before trash talking about how you will be waiting for Mini and Microled"s.


What are you guna do when a dozen of LED"s of the 1000 Microled's they use dont even light up ? The you will come back complaining about how only 980 zones out of the 1000 work and they have bad QC for a most likely $5000 monitor.


These monitors will probably get cheaper but dont expect miniLED's to cost any lower. Forget Microled"s the cost to manufacture these panels is insane.
These monitors use AMVA panels (IPS type) not AHVA (VA) panels.. I have seen VA panels and the ghosting is really bad on them, would take a slightly brighter blacks than a darker black and ghosting on VA panels.

Not true, AHVA is not VA, AHVA is IPS like, VA is completely different technology than IPS (AHVA).
IPS glow and bleed makes black and dark images and also colors especially on the corner, look worse than even a TN(already tried both).
PG27UQ and X27 use AHVA means IPS means glow, bleed and now the halo effect.
Bleed and Glow kills AHVA panels.
BTW if you prefer brighter dark than a darker black, than you know nothing about image quality.
OLED is king because of what ? because of its ultimate black and ultra high contrast. Black and contrast are the most important factor in image quality.

Never again AHVA (IPS like), image without deep black and high contrast (means without AHVA bleed and glow) is a trash in terms of quality. Contrast is king.

I got the name opposite but yes AHVA is IPS type and AMVA is VA read this http://www.tftcentral.co.uk/articles/high_refresh_rate.htm


There is no IPS glow and bleed with FALD. So idk what ur talking about. I used TN and they are horrible. Cant even watch anything if you are sitting and decide to stand.

Future HDR monitors are most definitely going to be 4k. HDR is best when you can use more pixels to create a fluent/nicer looking contrast, hence why OLED TVs are only on 4K. 1440p is not 2k, 2048x1080p is 2k. Sometimes 1920x1080p is referred to as 2k. A 1440p monitor is 2.5k.

lots of users complaints about this Philips monitor on OCN forums.

Ghosting is a non-issue on high end panels. No one said miniLED was going to be cheaper. However, price may be lower than expected if Nvidia can make cheaper modules. Keep in mind, the tech is not what makes the panel so expensive, it's the G-Sync module. If it was a freesync panel, the monitor would have been around 1500 bucks or less.

Local dimming test of PG27UQ. A lot of noise in the video so probably the iso is cranked up high to exaggerate the blooming for zone count. The transition from zone to zone *is surprisingly obvious; normally when I watch the zone count videos for fald tvs the blooming around the bright object will move smoothly but here the zone is lit then it's off then it's lit. Not sure which implementation is better:

my main reason for buying this display was for the 4k 144hz gsync if it has hdr that is just a bonus in 2019 I will be changing my LG C7 oled tv 4k 60hz for a 4k 120hz until then I am happy with my current displays LG 4k Oled 60hz 55 inch and PG27UQ

Anyone know if there will be a VA HDR monitors with QLED G-SYNC coming ?
especially 2k, i don't like low FPS with 4k.

Really? only HDR with 4k ? so no more single GPU 😞
