About this product
The KTC H27S5C is a 27-inch curved gaming monitor with QHD resolution (2560x1440), 144Hz refresh rate, and 1ms MPRT response time. It features a VA panel (HVA) with 3000:1 typical contrast ratio, 400 cd/m² brightness, and HDR400 support. The 1500R curvature and anti-glare coating enhance the viewing experience. Adaptive Sync, FreeSync, and G-Sync compatibility reduce tearing. Connectivity includes HDMI and DisplayPort inputs.
Our take
The KTC H27S5C is a well-rounded 1440p curved monitor that hits the sweet spot for gaming. The 144Hz refresh rate is plenty smooth, and the 1ms response time keeps motion crisp. The VA panel offers deep blacks with 3000:1 contrast, and HDR400 adds a bit of pop. Color accuracy is decent out of the box. The 1500R curve is immersive without distortion. At $289.99, it's competitively priced. My only complaint is that the stand is basic and only offers tilt. Overall, it's a solid choice for gamers who want 1440p and curve without spending a fortune.
