About this product
The VIOTEK GN27DW is a 27-inch gaming monitor with a 144Hz refresh rate and 1440p resolution. It uses a Samsung VA panel and supports FreeSync. The monitor is priced at $23.25, but this price seems unusually low for these specs, suggesting it might be used or refurbished. The flat screen design may appeal to users who prefer non-curved displays. Features include a 144Hz refresh rate for smooth gameplay and a high-resolution WQHD display for detailed visuals.
Our take
I grabbed the GN27DW expecting decent performance for the price, but the $23 price tag raised my suspicions. The 27-inch 1440p 144Hz combo looks great on paper, and the Samsung VA panel provides good contrast. However, the low price suggests it may be a display model or have some issues. In use, the colors are okay and FreeSync works, but there's noticeable backlight bleed. If you can get a fully functional unit, it's a steal, but be wary of potential defects. Not for the risk-averse.
