About this deal

A step up in terms of resolution and performance, the ViewSonic XG2705-2K is a true upgrade from the XG2405 and the XG2705. Gamers who got those displays are welcome to grab this upgrade – especially with its affordable MSRP in tow. Motion Picture Response Time (MPRT) is the numbered approach to demonstrate the level of perceived motion blur on a display. Basically, a lower persistence value indicates less motion blur. Refresh rate and the sampling method plays a major part here whereas a higher refresh rate nominally features better display persistence values. Calibrating the ViewSonic XG2705-2K further improved its dE average to an even better 0.67 which makes it usable for editing work. Combine that with the extended gamut coverage and you get a formidable monitor for content creation and digital arts. However, gamers shouldn’t worry about this since it is not essential, and the cost of a colorimeter is quite high. While I do appreciate the extra power cables, ViewSonic could just bundle an adapter for each country’s requirements. That’s just me tho.

The ViewSonic XG2705-2K supports the most common ergonomic features via its default stand mount. It is VESA mounted so if you need more flexibility, like requiring a horizontal lift feature, you could always get a mount for that function. The monitor is also good enough for portrait use. On Screen Display: Input Select, Audio Adjust, ViewMode, Color Adjust, Manual Image Adjust, Setup Menu Highlights here are the excellent color coverage, accuracy and the denser PPI compared to the non-2K version. Screen uniformity and contrast ratio could be better though but everything else this monitor could offer is just too good for the price – that includes its ergonomic features.Aside from these ergonomic features, the monitor also comes with reading mode (Web and Text) plus a Blue light filter to relieve eye strain. Test Setup and Methodology

This test shows us an overview of the display panel’s screen uniformity at calibrated brightness level. The closer this value to 0, the better the quality of the panel. The Color Gamut test evaluates the color space coverage of the display panel from industry standards including sRGB and AdobeRGB. Higher percentage is better. Released this year, the XG2705-2K is a 27″ 1440P IPS gaming display made to one-up the XG2705 and perhaps the XG2405 – a fitting monitor to replace or even accompany both by specs alone. Static contrast ratio is also tested. The test here will shows us how the display performs at its maximum contrast level measured in luminance ratio. Higher is better. Color adjustment is decent. We wish to see more options here though like color temperature based on Kelvin and the ability to change saturation along with gamma level options. Note that some presets here will disable some functions or features. The sRGB color preset for example will disable the contrast control and 1ms mode.ViewSonic opted for a row of buttons for their OSD navigation. There are dots here so you could easily tell what each button does without looking at the not so useful physical legends.
