Information about the maximum vertical viewing angle, within which the image on the screen is of acceptable quality. Information of the number of pixels in a unit of length. With the decrease of the display size and the increase of its resolution, the pixel density increases. Since there’s no noticeable difference between 8-bit and 10-bit color in most games, it’s not a particularly big issue. Price & Similar Monitors If you are using a variable refresh rate (VRR), be it AMD FreeSync or NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible, and your frame rate is fluctuating a lot, the Level 1 setting provides more consistent performance across the entire refresh rate range since it still looks very good at 165Hz/FPS.

Approximate width of the display. If the manufacturer does not provide such information, the width is calculated from the diagonal and the aspect ratio. Watching movies was also a pleasure on the Omen 27i. Some Blu-ray films might look a tad overblown, since the color gamut is too large.

The HP OMEN 27i doesn’t have speakers, but that isn’t something that’s sorely missed in a gaming setup. Chances are it will be better equipped with gaming headphones or speakers, so built-ins rarely get used in that case. However, work from home has become recently popular, so a proper pair will come in handy for conference calls or Zoom sessions as needed. Display and Performance The dynamic contrast shows the ratio between the brightest and the darkest color, which the display can reproduce over time, for example, in the course of playing a video.

There's no doubt at this price and at this size, the HP Omen 27i is one of the best gaming monitors around. For as long as we were using it, and for whatever purpose we put it to, the display shone in terms of its contrast and colours, so much so that we didn't notice the absence of HDR (though that is a point against the screen). Dimensions, weight and color Information about the dimensions and the weight of the specific model with and without stand as well as the colors, in which it is offered to the market.

All performance specifications represent the typical specifications provided by HP's component manufacturers; actual performance may vary either higher or lower.

Approximate height of the display. If the manufacturer does not provide such information, the height is calculated from the diagonal and the aspect ratio. The HP Omen 27i boasts a sleek and sturdy design with a height-adjustable stand up to 130mm, tilt by -5°/20°, and VESA mount compatibility (100x10mm). The best option (Level 1 or Level 2) will most likely depend on your personal sensitivity to ghosting and/or inverse ghosting as well as on the frame rate you can maintain in certain games, so you should try both modes yourself and see what works best for you.With the Xbox One and Series consoles, the range is 48-120Hz, and the monitor supports the 1440p 120Hz mode.

Windows instantly recognized the Omen 27i’s 165 Hz refresh and G-Sync Compatibility. No changes were necessary in the Nvidia Control panel. FreeSync also worked right off the bat when we hooked the monitor up to our AMD-based gaming PC. That brings me to the few qualms I have with the HP Omen 27i, which take the form of frustratingly basic glitches. A monitor of this caliber shouldn't really fall victim to them.
