What's up guys Chigz here from Chigz Tech Reviews.
So today I bring you the new AOC 90 Series 27 inch 4K monitor.
Now this is a 4k IPS monitor with built-in speakers and a beautiful frameless design.
So I can't wait to get this all set up you can see that my table is totally empty we are starting fresh this
is going to be a brand new setup so without any further ado let's just get
this unboxed and see what it looks like
so this is everything you get in the box so you've got a bag with a QuickStart
guide what appears to be a monitor driver CD we've got our energy-efficient
sticker and it's actually energy-efficient be a 3.5 mm audio cable
now this monitor does have built-in speakers but in case you want to hook up
your own speaker system the cables included a DisplayPort cable a USB 3
cable power socket your base the base itself is actually made from metal and
you've got this beautiful finish and of course it's gunmetal color you've got
the screws and attachments there and at the bottom you've got rubber feet and
also the base does swivel and we will be checking out the swivel action in a bit
now here is the monitor arm and the outer shell is made from plastic
finished in gunmetal and the bottom frame and hinges are both made from
metal so you know you've got a solid build quality over here and last but not
least the monitor itself now a few months ago I was looking for a screen
ideally 4k but I wanted a screen under 32 inches and I just couldn't get one
for the right price now this costs only three hundred and thirty-eight pounds
it's real native 4k and it's 27 inches IPS LED screen so let's go ahead and fit
the stand on so first of all the monitor arm is going to go directly into the
stand and then all you're doing is turning this screw so at this stage no
screwdriver required how how convenient is that
so that's tight enough I'm going to fit this part on to the monitor and I'm
hoping no tools are required for this part as well which would be pretty
awesome there you go that just clicks into place
you don't even need a screw driver or some stuff so let's pick this up I'll
ask brilliant absolutely brilliant
so quick look at all the ports we've got three USB ports over here and the middle
one is a yellow port for fast charging just above that you've got Kensington
lock and you're right speaker grille now just underneath we have a headphone jack
your DisplayPort version 1.2 HDMI version 2.0 and HDMI version 1.4 and if
we keep going further down you've got a physical power button and a power socket
and finally at the bottom you've got another speaker grille so here it is
guys the brand new AOC 4k IPS 27-inch monitor you have a screen resolution of
30 480 by 2160 with a 16 by 9 aspect ratio and a refresh rate of 60 Hertz and
a 5 millisecond response time now you also have a static contrast ratio of
1,000 to one and a dynamic contrast ratio of 50 million to one first
impression it's a beautiful design the screen is frameless on all three sides
apart from of course the bottom and you do have a swivel stand it will give you
45 degrees of swiveling both ways and you can also tilt the screen upwards by
19 degrees and a few degrees downwards as well so pretty smooth motion the
height is adjustable so a very nice adjustable swiveling action by this
monitor and if that's not enough you can rotate the screen by 90 degrees giving
you a complete portrait view which is quite useful for certain projects like
graphic design web design and even app development so now I'm going to go ahead
and hook things up and we're going to start testing out this monitor so this
is what my current setup looks like it's a simple minimalistic look I got the
brand new a OC 4k monitor in the center we've got the two powerful studio 19
solo speakers on either side they are Bluetooth wireless speakers and support
true wireless stereo sound so I've also got my playstation 4 Nvidia shield TV I
got my Belkin two-in-one I owe S charger so it will charge my new iPhone pro max
and my Apple watch at the same time so awesome device needs to be on every
desk now on the back there is a joystick that joystick will give you the menu
controls on-screen there are no other buttons so if I just press it once I'll
show you what it does it will give you menu options at the bottom so give you
your picture color picture boost OSD set up extras and exit so first of all we
are going to be testing out the internal speaker to see what it sounds like so as
you can see we are streaming 4k so the sound is already on max volume is not
that loud
so the internal sound so far is whisper silent you do have two speakers but
they're both two watts each giving you a maximum of four watts so you can't
expect much from the sound so let's try something more dramatic like a trailer
and see if we can get that peak volume higher the sound is slightly better when
watching a trailer but I have to say those internal speakers are not going to
impress anyone I am now going to hook up the two monsters and we're gonna get
some real sound going hello boys
my banner you being charged with the attempted murder of the President of the
United States
giggles live-action on the lane European Jew
all units get ready
so just connected up my macbook pro via HDMI and as you can see things are
looking nice crisp and clear but this is what I really wanted to test you can
swivel the screen 90 degrees into portrait mode then for Windows settings
you can also flip the screen to match portrait mode now I think this works
quite well especially if you like watching YouTube videos with the
advantage of being able to reply to comments at the same time with much more
convenience I think I'm gonna get quite used to this so there you have it guys
that was my unboxing and overview of the AOC
90 series 4k monitor so you have an impressive frameless design build
quality is great I love the compact 27 inch widescreen size movies and games
look and play great and you have an absolutely crispy 4k picture quality
gaming was also not bad I was able to play all my favourite games and it was
quite enjoyable I did not feel any lag or ghosting although five milliseconds
is not ideal for gaming the game still looked and played great now a few things
to mention are the internal speakers were disappointingly low volume and
there is no USB C or HDR support other than that this is a very nice quality
display and it's exactly what I was looking for I also like to add the
swiveling to portrait mode is going to be a much used feature on my desk and
with that being said I will leave the links in the description in case you
guys want to check this product out meanwhile thank you so much for watching
and I hope you all have a brilliant day I'll see you guys in the next one
