ViewSonic XG2700-4K is a new 27-inch Ultra HD monitor from the company with support for AMD FreeSync variable refresh rate technology.

The monitor features an IPS panel with 1000:1 contrast ratio, 300 cm/m2 maximum brightness, 2ms response time, 10-bit colors (8-bit + A-FRC) and 178/178 degree viewing angles. ViewSonic claims the monitor covers 75.06% of the NTSC color gamut, which is pretty decent.

That 60 Hz in the list seems a whole bunch more normal than 144 Hz.

Any idea what the Acer XR342CK is offering over the 341?

I'm guessing a revised/updated/slightly newer curved 3440x1440 panel from LG. Probably shared with the 34UC98 and PG348Q. Will probably include DP 1.3 and USB 3.1 Type-C.

 

[EXCellR8]

the radius on the curve is tighter than on the 341.. and the OSD and stand have been revised. i think the rest is pretty much the same.

will post the source as soon as i find it again

^^^ Interesting. Hope it has better inputs as well.

Thanks for the correction, I've been price watching the 341 for too long, it's muscle memory by now.

Nice, thanks for that.

Yes, 1900R curvature (twice as much as the usual 3800R). Looks like joystick OSD control as well. Can't wait to get rid of the 5 wide OSD navigation. My Samsung's OSD buttons are absolutely terrible and inoperable without a hand behind display.
