For gamers, ViewSonic probably needs no introduction. This American electronics company has years of experience making display devices and computer monitors. Nowadays, gamers want a large screen with high resolution and a 144Hz refresh rate for smooth FPS gaming, plus FreeSync technology. The ViewSonic VX2705-2KP-mhd ticks all those boxes. It’s the latest model kicking off 2021 with style.
We recently got to try out the VX2705-2KP-mhd. Our first impression: it’s a solid quality monitor that won’t break the bank, priced just over 8 million VND, making it a comfortable choice in its segment.
For gaming today, 27 inches is almost a must-have size. It’s considered the sweet spot for comfortable eye focus without strain during long gaming sessions.
The ViewSonic VX2705-2KP-mhd features a sharp QHD resolution and a SuperClear® IPS panel that’s bright and clear. It’s designed for users who want to focus on work or enjoy gaming and entertainment at home.
Appearance-wise, the VX2705-2KP-mhd is a bit classic. It has relatively thick bezels and physical buttons placed underneath. The fixed V-shaped stand doesn’t allow height or tilt adjustments. So this monitor really follows the principle of “good wood over good paint.”
In real use, the 2K resolution and 144Hz refresh rate combined with an IPS panel and a 1ms response time give you wide viewing angles, vibrant colors, and high contrast. Playing MOBA or FPS games on this screen feels great. Mouse movements, image processing, frame switching, and synchronization all run smoothly when tested on high settings with powerful PCs.
Another plus for the VX2705-2KP-mhd is FreeSync technology. It syncs the monitor’s refresh rate with your graphics card’s frame rate, eliminating screen tearing, stuttering, and lag caused by mismatched frame rates. This makes gaming and watching smooth, emotional scenes much more enjoyable and immersive.
One feature we really liked is the built-in blue light filter and eye protection technology. The manufacturer went all out to include multiple tech features that help gamers protect their eyes during long sessions.
ViewMode, ViewSonic’s exclusive technology, lets you customize or instantly switch between preset color modes like gaming, web browsing, movie watching, or reading, depending on your needs.
The monitor includes two HDMI ports, one DisplayPort, and a line-out for audio. It also has built-in speakers, which are decent enough for users who don’t demand high-end sound quality.
Overall, for a reasonable price, you get a lot. This monitor is especially great for fast-paced combat games like Overwatch, League of Legends, Battlefield 5, Fortnite, giving you plenty of time to react to tough fights and annoying in-game effects. If you’re into strategy games like StarCraft 2 or DOTA 2, this is a solid upgrade for your gaming experience.
If you’re not too picky about looks, this is definitely a product worth trying for gamers on a budget.
