But the resolution now rises to 3840×2160, with support for HDR – high dynamic range – so you can immerse yourself in bright, colourful 4K video on Netflix. The basic design of this new model remains the same, with that distinctive ‘hoop’ design on the base of the stand, and a slimline 27in screen with only the narrowest of borders running around the edges. Acer has now stepped up to full 4K resolution for the H277HK. The one disappointment is the lack of audio support – no built-in speakers or even a headphone socket, so you’ll have to rely on your Mac’s internal speakers and headphone socket, or simply use a set of external speakers.Īcer’s H7 range is always good value for money, and we’ve recommended its 27in H277HU display in the past. There’s also a pair of USB 3.0 ports for connecting other accessories. It’s up to date with the latest connectivity options too, including HDMI, DisplayPort and USB-C, which makes it a good companion for the latest Mac mini and MacBook models. It’s not intended as a high-end monitor for professional graphics and video work, but it does support 90% of the DCI-P3 colour standard, so you can use it for the occasional spot of video editing for business presentations, or your Instagram vlogging. HP claims its ‘quantum dot’ technology is very power-efficient, and the screen supports HDR (high dynamic range) for richer colours, and an anti-glare coating for enhanced visibility. The Pavilion 27 is nicely designed, with a super-slimline screen panel that measures just 6.5mm thick, and a very thin border around the edges that really emphasises the size of the screen. If you’re on a really tight budget there’s also a version with 1920×1080 resolution for still less. If you don’t need – or can’t afford – a 4K display then a 2560×1440 monitor such as HP’s Pavilion 27 is a good alternative for entertainment at home and working in the office. For many people, a ‘quad-HD’ (or QHD) resolution of 2560×1440 is a good mid-range option that combines a sharp, detailed image with text and graphics that are large and easy on the eye when you’re staring at the screen all day long (in fact, the default ‘looks like’ resolution for the 5K iMac is 2560×1440, as Apple recognises that as a comfortable viewing resolution for most people). Not everyone needs a monitor with high-end 4K resolution.
