About this deal

Approximate width of the display. If the manufacturer does not provide such information, the width is calculated from the diagonal and the aspect ratio. Underneath all of this you’ll find an IPS panel with 10-bit colour, which is a conventional specification for a premium home and office display. In this regard, my desktop PC is no slouch with Nvidia GTX 3080 graphics, 32GB of RAM and an Intel i9 CPU but even this isn’t enough to achieve a steady 165 fps in all games at maximum resolution and ultra graphic settings. That being said, in many of the games I played, I was able to achieve 165 fps and over with small tweaks to the graphic options.

The 5W speakers are only mediocre, too: muddy and underwhelming. They’re fine for casual YouTube viewing and video calls, but that’s it. At least the MateView has dual microphones.

And with a solid specification and a price that undercuts much of the competition, the MateView GT makes a solid first impression. But is it one of the best gaming monitors you can buy? Price and availability Happily, the Delta E of 1.92 ensures those colours are displayed with ample accuracy. The colour temperature of 5996K is below the ideal 6500K figure and a tad warm, but it doesn’t cause issues and doesn’t leave the display looking oversaturated.

The thin bezels give the MateView GT a stylish and sleek look that works well on a work or home desk setup and the build quality is great. The stand is solid and allows for height and tilt adjustment but no swivel or twist. These monitors are larger and pricier than the Huawei, granted, but another, less expensive favorite, the 2,560x1,440 Razer Raptor 27, covers 162% of the sRGB gamut, and the 32-inch Corsair Xeneon 32QHD165 does even more (194%), though neither monitor gets as bright as the others. Huawei MateView GT review: Performance It does a decent job when watching videos or even playing games but I still prefer either good headphones or a speaker setup. The high resolution stretches across a 28.2in diagonal, which means images are pin-sharp – the density level of 163ppi means you’ll get crisp and detailed imagery in creative apps and everyday tools.Colour accuracy is excellent too with good contrast, as you’d expect from a VA panel. However, viewing angles are not as good as you’ll see on an IPS display but they’re not terrible here either. After a full calibration using my SpyderX Elite colourimeter I was easily able to produce prints that looked identical to what I was seeing on the monitor. What about those response numbers, then? Huawei provides four levels of user-configurable overdrive in the OSD menu. It can also be turned entirely off. None provide pixel response performance that we're totally happy with. Level two and below is pretty blurry. The fastest setting, level four, is certainly sharper, but also comes with some fairly nasty overshoot and ghosting. Level three has a bit of blur and a whiff of overshoot, but is probably the best compromise. The percentage of the approximate area, taken by the active part of the screen, to the total front area. Information about the number of pixels on the horizontal and vertical side of the screen. A higher resolution allows the display of a more detailed and of higher quality image. The downside of VA, often enough, is pixel response. Huawei claims 4ms, which is a tad tardy in a gaming context. However, on-paper pixel response specs rarely tell the whole story, so hold that thought. Meanwhile, the MateView's refresh rate tops out at 165Hz. While that's nothing special in this age of 360Hz-plus panels, it's also enough for all but a small fringe of gamers who need the absolute lowest possible latency.
