Games like Red Dead 2 look good on the AW27 but the G7 has that cohesive glue in that light sources appearing with more dynamics is more convincing on the G7 which is where VA type displays have that big advantage. Where the AW2721D shines is due to the screen surface (an area I really appreciate your reviews is you factor in screen surface which makes a bigger difference than many think) light shades have a very smooth appearance so light sources look smooth. The AW2721D really fell flat in this game. I tried Resident Evil The Village and that game commands a strong contrast to which the G7 displayed greatly. Due to the lack of good image processing on monitors, the strong contrast performance of the 27″ G7 overcame the AW2721D for most things, movies, atmospheric games. I felt the pros and cons from the panels inherently were at play. Recently I had the AW2721D and Samsung G7 at the same time. For wide gamut work, monitors weren’t really utilised in the same way that IPS type displays were also so options were limited for professionals in that sense. I always felt IPS type displays due to their lack of sealing leading to low contrast and light leakage caused problems form giving me an overall picture of your work, a lack of dynamic range in a sense. When I started using monitor for design purposes and gaming (for gaming it took a long time to finally ditch my Quantum Dot VA panel haha, it was too big when I started taking competitive gaming seriously) I always knew that IPS displays were favoured due to their gamma consistency, viewing angles were important although I always preferred working on VA although for some or most I can see why having better viewing angles for piece of mind that everything is consistent is important. Coming from that field IPS type displays always had pretty weak performance even with better processing and processing for Full Array there were inherent limitations. Before getting into design involving monitors I was in AV and AV sales. Now my post today is really hopefully to lead to a discussion or simply just an excuse to finally post something on here haha. ![]() Feel free to move this post to a different section if needed but I just want to share my thoughts on this topic that seems to be asked over and over again.įirstly I just want to say thank you for your in depth reviews, many other reviewers may do a good job with numbers and measurements which they focus on, you actually give an overall picture of how a display looks which being an AV guy originally, really appreciate more than just numbers so just want to say thank you for your hard work.
