Testing Results
The PD27 supports 16.7 million colors with VESA DisplayHDR 400-compliant quality for vivid, lifelike images that covers 90% DCI-P3 gamut, reaches up to 550 cd/m² brightness, and has a 2500:1 contrast ratio. It is also supports AMD FreeSync Premium Pro technology, which helps to reduce stuttering, screen tearing, and motion blur during fast action games when connected to a compatible graphics card. Devices connect to the monitor through its two DisplayPort 1.4 and dual HDMI 2.0 inputs. Its integrated 5W x 2 stereo speakers allow you to enjoy music, videos, and games without having to clutter your desk with external speakers. Adjust the screen’s tilt and height to optimize comfort.
We used a SpyderX Pro to conduct the testing and later the calibration. I prefer my own dial in because the Spyder software thinks I need a very dim monitor. Plus if You use two different brands of monitors it is extremely difficult to achieve a perfectly synced picture, even when using a calibration tool.
MONITOR PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS
100% of sRGB and 90% of P3 are great results! One thing to note about the Spyder Pro: I haven’t found for certain but I don’t think the software reports over 100% for results. As you can see in the chart above the sRGB coverage is mapped well over 100% (green triangle). So we safely assume the 119% reported in the specifications by AOC is probably very close to the test.
Highest brightness reading was 473.5 and highest contrast was 2090:1!
