Overview
Aimed at gamers, the MSI MAG 275QF E21 is a 27-inch IPS display with a 2560 × 1440 panel that refreshes at up to 210 Hz. It offers 109 ppi pixel density, 300 nits typical brightness (400 nits peak), 1200:1 static contrast and 121% sRGB and 95% DCI-P3 coverage. Variable refresh covers 48–210 Hz, quotes 0.5 ms MPRT response and supports Adaptive-Sync. Inputs include 2× HDMI 2.0 and 1× DisplayPort 1.4. The stand tilts only. There are no speakers, and it weighs 4.4 kg with the stand. It suits players who want smooth motion for fast games. The main trade-off: tilt-only stand has no height, swivel or pivot adjustment.
