Buying decision

Should you buy it?

The XG27UCS is a 27-inch 3840x2160 Fast IPS gaming monitor running up to 160Hz, with near-perfect color accuracy out of the box and very high pixel density for crisp text. A backlight strobe that works alongside Adaptive-Sync keeps motion clean, and HDMI 2.1 covers current consoles. Contrast is mediocre, there's no local dimming for HDR, and there are no speakers or USB hub.
