Designed for multiple uses but presented as a viable solution for users interested in image or video editing, the AOC Q2781PQ is the newest monitor from AOC to enter the market. It will be be available in July 2016 in UK, with a price of £279 (+/- $400). No indication, yet, of availability in other markets.

A new addition to AOC’s Style line, the AOC Q2781PQ impresses first for its ultra slim design and asymmetric stand, already used by AOC in previous models but not in a model offering this resolution. The display comes in a new 4-side “borderless” design with 5.7 mm black borders on the upper, left and right sides and a 6.25 mm border on the lower side. But it is its QHD resolution (2560 x 1440, over 3.6 million pixels) that will really attract users looking for some extra resolution and desktop space.

The AOC Q2781PQ features a modern AH-IPS panel that allows for wide viewing angles of 178°, ensuring brilliant colours with 100% sRGB consistency and best colour uniformity from any perspective. Modern features such as Flicker-FREE technology and multiple video inputs turn the AOC Q2781PQ into a functional and pleasant companion at home or in the office. Users who frequently have to spend long hours in front of a display will benefit from AOC Flicker-FREE technology, which regulates the monitor’s brightness through a DC (direct current) backlight system and thus reduces the unpleasant flickering that so frequently causes eye discomfort and fatigue.

Because a monitor is, many times, more than a tool for working, serving multiple purposes, the needs of those interested in hooking the stylish monitor up with their gaming consoles, Blu-ray players or portable devices such as laptops are catered for through a range of up-to-date inputs. These include a DisplayPort, two HDMI inputs, D-Sub (VGA) and a built-in headphone jack.

Featuring e-Saver to reduce power consumption, and a response time of 4ms GTG, the AOC Q2781PQ may be a monitor to consider, whether you are looking for a monitor to edit images, work on spreadsheets at home or watching movies.
