Pros & Cons
Pros
- EX271 core strength The 1 ms GtG panel, FreeSync, 400 cd/m² peak brightness, motion-blur reduction, dual HDMI 2.0 and 5 W audio make it an accessible all-in-one gaming display
- EX271's 1920 x 1080 and 81 PPI clearly define its workspace and sharpness
- EX271 connectivity The connection set covers 2 x HDMI 2.0; 1 x DisplayPort 1.2; 1 x USB 3.2 (Type-C; Gen 1; 5 Gbps; upstream; data only), 1 x USB 3.2 (Type-C; Gen 1; 5 Gbps; downstream; 4.5W).
- EX271 ergonomics The supplied stand is tilt-only at -5° to +20°; height, swivel and pivot adjustment are not provided.
- EX271's closest comparison is BenQ ZOWIE XL2746K; the EX271 offers IPS colour, speakers and HDR at 220 Hz, while the XL2746K reaches 240 Hz with TN and DyAc+ but sacrifices multimedia features
Cons
- EX271 main compromise At 27 inches the 81 PPI image is coarse, the stand is tilt-only, and the USB-C upstream connection is data-only rather than a laptop video or charging input
- EX271's missing values remain unpublished rather than being copied from BenQ ZOWIE XL2746K.
- Before choosing EX271 over BenQ ZOWIE XL2746K, verify that its exact ports, stand and motion ceiling match the intended use
