Currently we are surrounded by a huge number of screens of various colors. We look at the smartphone, tablet, laptop, TV, advertising board. It seems, everywhere you look, everywhere they are. And since it so happened, I would like to see quality screens around. In some situations, there is not much choice, but when assembling a desktop PC or expanding the virtual work space of a laptop, you can choose a monitor that best meets your requirements.
There are quite a few manufacturers that are worth attention, but in this review we will focus on the products of the Taiwanese manufacturer AOC. This company has been manufacturing displays since 1967. The only thing that you will not find in the product line of the manufacturer is expensive professional monitors with perfect color reproduction and wide possibilities for image calibration. Otherwise, there is nothing to complain about, there are models for every taste and wallet: devices with a simple design, low resolution and minimal cost, balanced screens of different diagonals and uncompromising gaming solutions for avid gamers.
The cost is much lower than that of more popular competitors, like Samsung, ASUS, etc., but you should not worry about quality - the picture is good on all models without exception, and the official warranty period is 3 years, which is very worthy. However, enough praise. Let's move on to the review of the top five best AOC monitors.
TOP 5 best monitors brand AOC
5 AOC E2280SWN
A country: China
Average price: 5 723 ₽
Rating (2019): 4.5
Open the top five best monitors AOC very affordable model. This budget has a simple design, fairly thick frames and a practically unregulated stand, but the characteristics allow us to recommend it for purchase. For 5.5 thousand rubles, the buyer receives a 21.5-inch monitor with a resolution of FullHD. Yes, the TN matrix, because of which the viewing angles are mediocre (90 and 60 degrees. Horizontally and vertically, respectively). Yes, brightness is only 200 cd / m2. But such a resolution, coupled with the technology Flicker-Free, which reduces the flicker of the display and the load on the eyes, for such a small amount of money - an excellent offer.
Of the associated parameters worth noting the presence of a wall mount Vesa (100x100 mm) and stereo speakers. The latter play medium, but as a replacement for unpretentious computer "squeakers" are quite suitable. Of the minuses, users say there is only one video input - VGA. You may have to tinker with adapters.
4 AOC I2281FWH
A country: China
Average price: 7 444 ₽
Rating (2019): 4.7
The cheapest models are not always the most popular. Proof of this is the I2281FWH model. Appearance is radically different from the previous reviewer. The thinnest frame around the screen, stylish asymmetrical footboard, glossy back cover. Of course, you can find fault with all this. The step, for example, allows you to adjust the angle of the screen in a very small range, the gloss is quickly covered with dust, and the outputs of the connectors are directed back, which kills any hope of hiding the wires from the eyes. But, given the characteristics and low cost, all these items can be called nagging.
AH-IPS TFT matrix with a diagonal of 21.5 ’and a resolution of 1920x1080 pixels. Viewing angles are close to the maximum - 178 degrees vertically and horizontally. Contrast and brightness is much higher than that of the previous participant - most users have enough of it. Although, judging by the reviews, there are dissatisfied. There are two video inputs: HDMI and VGA. There is also a 3.5 mm audio jack for connecting headphones.
3 AOC I2490PXQU / BT
A country: China
Average price: 12 730 ₽
Rating (2019): 4.7
The top three starts with a monitor, which can be safely recommended to most buyers. Due to the optimal ratio of price and parameters, it is suitable for office workers, movie-lovers, gamers, and people working with graphics. The design is stylish, modern. Aluminum footstep fits well with the frameless display. The stand, by the way, is excellent - with the ability to adjust the height, angle and rotation. There is a hole in it for neatly laying cables.
The 23.8-inch display is made using TFT-IPS technology and covers 100% of the sRGB color space, which means it is also perfect for working with photos, graphics, video. The resolution is not a record one - FullHD, but the noticeable “grain” of pixels is not visible, it is comfortable to work. In addition, the backlight is made by Flicker-Free technology, there is a blue color reduction function. Pleases the number of ports: HDMI, DisplayPort, VGA. There is also a splitter for 4 USB Type A (3.0), USB Type B and headphone output - you can no longer reach for the system unit.
2 AOC AGON AG271QX
A country: China
Average price: 30 668 ₽
Rating (2019): 4.8
With the growth of the diagonal of the display, the degree of “coolness” of the monitor also increases. Game model AGON AG271QX fully satisfy even the most sophisticated gamer. The massive 27-inch front display looks quite restrained. The game orientation is revealed only by the red AGON logo and the sharp edges of the massive stand. The latter has the maximum functionality: you can adjust the height, rotation, angle, and even translate the monitor into portrait mode. Behind the designers have added a bright red inset. But much more surprising number of connectors. On the right side are the outputs for headphones, a microphone and a pair of USB 3.0, one of which (yellow) is for charging gadgets. There is also such a nice detail, as a retractable headphone mount. Below we have 5 (!) Video inputs: DVI-D, 2x HDMI, DisplayPort and VGA. All cables can be hidden in a special channel in the leg. But the power supply is unlikely to hide - it is huge!
The display is 27-inch, with a resolution of 2560x1440 pixels. Matrix TN, and therefore hope for the perfect color quality is not worth it. Viewing angles of about 160-170 degrees, which is enough. But the speed is ideal: the response speed (GTG) is only 1 ms, the refresh rate is 144 Hz. Even in the most dynamic shooters to play very comfortable. In addition, in the menu you can find 8 presets of the image that can be switched, including using an external control panel.
1 AOC AGON AG352QCX
A country: China
Average price: 43 680 ₽
Rating (2019): 4.8
We are completing the AOC product overview with the largest monitor in the line. The diagonal of this monster is nearly 35 inches. It’s unlikely to work for such a person, but it’s a pleasure to be engaged in drawing, playing and watching movies. Comfortable viewing of films provides not quite the usual aspect ratio of 21: 9 - with this format there will be no black bars above and below. Gamers will enjoy a very high refresh rate - 200 Hz. True, the response speed of 4 ms is not the best indicator. Also, the chips should include a slight curvature, due to which you better immerse yourself in what is happening on the screen.
The design is partially reminiscent of that of the previous participant, but the colors are slightly more restrained, the materials and the shape of the steps are the same. But the set of ports and the way they are laid is the same - everything is as versatile and convenient as possible. It is worth noting the presence of two 5 watt speakers. Quality is mediocre, but in the absence of speakers or headphones will help out. Also, the model can be used in conjunction with game consoles.
