Acer XB271HU poor uniformity

[Kaiketsu]

How do you rate it?

especially the right edge IRL looks terrible. While the screen is normally yellow-ish (as per D65), the right side turns arctic blue.

Which is a pity, since the panel is otherwise pixel perfect with almost no IPS bleeding.

I honestly can't tell without being infront of it. Did you try some full colors besides white?

 

[Kaiketsu]

Well, yes.

On white, it's very yellow in the center, and it turns almost blue-ish at the right and left side.

Honestly the uniformity is terrible. I've returned it.

Much of the lack of uniformity you'll see on monitors like this is from viewing distance. If you were to back up, or shift from side to side, the uniformity shifts with it. I've noticed it on mine (have the same model) and just pushed the thing back a few more inches, looks perfect now.

Poor QA if you ask me. Seems to be common nowadays with monitors that have IPS or TN panels.

It's an aspect of pushing the quality higher. Really need to transition to OLED or something to get past these things. Alternative is to get a cheaper panel that doesn't have as advanced features, or just deal with non-uniformity at certain angles.
