Hello guys! I just created a new video about a special video slider: th-cam.com/video/5o10GWHjpjg/w-d-xo.html
If you have any comments regarding to the monitor, just write me a comment. I am trying my best to solve all the problems and questions you give have.
Thank you so much for the review! It was the only one that reviewed the monitor in depth and made me purchase one. So happy with my purchase!
Thanks for your kind comment! Glad that you enjoy it
Simply the best review I've seen. Keep up the good work mate!
Wow thank you for your kind comment!
@@LICHTCATCHINGTOBY I must agree with Steve - I've seen a lot of monitor reviews and your review is definitely in the top regarding quality and covering all features.
@@gubiithefish Thats such a nice comment! Thank you!
Very useful and well realized review, thank you!
and thank you for writing the 500th comment!
Thanks. A brief review that mentions all the important facts
Thats a nice compliment, thank you
Underrated thing nowadays.
Excellent work! And I love the description of the exact person who would benefit; semi-professional media production! Semi-professional is exactly my descriptor.
Thank you for the review i just got one at a big discount very in-depth I bought it to match the ideacentra 27 it is almost identical because as a designer I need the screens to match.
I am glad that you like it!
very detailed and clear review, thank you!!
Thanks for your kind comment!
The production value of this video was so excellent I'm going to subscribe and watch all the videos even though I know nothing about videography haha
Great review! Just purchased this monitor as a second one. I'm a software developer so I think it's perfect for my needs and looks great. 👍
Hey Bobby, i think that is the nicest comment I have ever read. Thank so you much. I hope you enjoy the monitor. Happy developing!
@@LICHTCATCHINGTOBY no problem, I think your channel is going to do great in just a few months. Keep at it!
I particularly enjoyed the elegant and minimalist animations sprinkled throughout the video. This was the most in depth and thorough video review I could find on this monitor. I know it's not great for heavy media production, but I'm just looking at code all day haha.
Anyway, looking forward to your new content!
Thank you for the review, found this one really cheap used!
Glad I could help!
And sorry for the late reply!
Ordered this Monitor , thanks for the valuable review ... stay safe stay blessed
Glad i could help! Stay safe!
Planning on ordering the same . How does it fare compared to T27h ? Also there is costlier version the Q27q with usb type c . I just want to use it for coding and light gaming and as a second screen along with my laptop . Opinions?
Great video! I just ordered one thanks to your review :) Really excited to get it. You deserve way more subscribers!!
Ohhh thanks, that is such a kind comment!
So how is it? Do you like it? Any impressions? Please share it with us :)
Yeah. How is it ?
@@fairuldeng7426 I love it! It has served me really well for the past year :)
@@dw1zzful I love it! I've been using it for about a year now and it's served me super well. Sorry I missed your comment! :)
Great review, watching this helped me to decide upon it :)
Glad I could help!
Thank you! this was very helpful for me
Thank you very much!
Thanks for the Video. Got all the important informations and looked pretty nice (not like the others with bad stock photos).
The Version with an built in usb c Hub is actually nearly the same price. Bought it yesterday and it looks pretty nice. Pricedifference was only 20€ to the Monitor without the usb-c hub.
Sounds like you made a great deal! :)
thank you for the review, I just bought this monitor. I'm looking for this monitor and the best and most in-depth review is your video. Keep the good work
Thank you very much for your kind comment! I hope you are going to enjoy this monitor as much as i do.
So how is it now ?
Very helpful video. Got what I came here for.. nice work
Thank you very much :)
Thanks for a good review! I liked the relaxing background music. however, how was the back bleed?
The back bleed is not perfect, but its completely fine for that price range.
Thank you very informative
This monitor would work really well for triple monitor simulator cockpits thanks to the tiny bezels.
Excellent Review :) Loved it..
Thanks alot
Thank you for a review
and thank you for your comment!
Great review, Thank you
Thank you for your comment!
Thank you for the video)
And I thank you for taking the time to write me a comment :)
Thank you very much!
This is very satisfactory to my price point and honestly with the imitations can and would work well in my use case.
The 75 Hz and speakers is kinda something I am looking for.
Any other monitors you might recommend?
Thank you and I have subscribed!
This was very helpful information!
Great review man, can you review the d32q-20 also please ?
I would love to! But as i am not a professional reviewer, therefore I cant review any monitor :(
Thank you for the great video my friend!
I'd just like to ask you, what do you think about this mix of this screen and macbook air 2020? Will it work perfectly together?
The macbook air 2020 has Thunderbolt 3 ports, so this monitor will work no problem. All you need is an HDMI 2.0 Adapter or an displayport adapter. If you want the same monitor but with a USB C port you can get the Q27h. Then your Macbook can even be charged with the cable that is connected to the monitor, which makes the setup really easy and convenient
Ordered for it after watching your video
You are going to like it
Thanks so much for this review! I am in love with the amazing keyboard, it matches so good, would you mind telling what type it is? I've been looking for one like this for months.
Hello Ella! Thanks for your nice comment! The keyboard is just the old generic Apple Keyboard, so its probably only a good solution if you do use a Apple device. I do have a somewhat similar keyboard for my windows pc. Its the Microsoft Surface Modern keyboard, maybe check it out :)
@@LICHTCATCHINGTOBY Thank you very much, i dont use apple devices, i will absolutely check it out!
Thanks for the review, I want your color calibrated profile.
Hiho Ramesh! Sure, can you write me an email? You will find it in the description.
Thanks for the review - great content! How does this monitor differ from the Q24i other than size?
Thanks! Well the resolution is lower. Its only 1920x1080 and not 2560x1440 (thats a 45% difference)
And the Q24i does not offer an Displayport, but instead offers a VGA port for some reason.
Seas! Danke für das Review - bin mir jetzt sicher, dass der Monitor gut investiertes Geld ist :)
Seas! Auf alle Fälle, kann ich wirklich empfehlen.
Hello, Thank you for the informative video.
From your knowledge - is this a decent buy for CAD work, 3D Modelling work and some rather basic use of Adobe graphic softwares?
Yeah sure, the monitor is completely fine for that use case!
Hi! Thank you for your review. A friend of mine and I have purchased one each today. It would be great to have the calibration profile you have created. Cheers!!
Sure, no problem! Just write me an email. You find it in the video description.
the "servus" at the end got me laughing so hard :PPP realy nice review thank you
and cool background music
Haha, thanks for your kind comment! Really appreciate it.
Dieses Review hat die Entscheidung, sich diesen Monitor zu kaufen, definitv erleichtert ;)
Hey, you said the speakers were not great, but are they still good enough for some basic youtube video watching? Are they tinny?
Thanks! Awesome footage :)
For basic youtube videos the speakers are for sure good enough. I just didnt want people to think, that the get decent / loud music lisiting quality. Any typical 20-30€ external speakers would be better for that.
They seem to be quite tiny as they are somewhere hidden in the bottom bezel.

Thanks! Cant wait for my medal.
Hi thanks for the review! Very precise in what we wanted to know! But i´ve got a question. Is there any way to switch the side in which the stand tube appears? I mean, can i have the tube to show from the left rather tan the right as shown in the video? Thank you keep on!
Yeah, a lot of people already asked me that, especially for a dual setup it would be nice. Unfortunately its not possible =/
nice video! Question please: can you adjust the height of the monitor or is the curved bar fixed?
Unfortunately you cant, you can only tilt it up and down, as the curved bar is fixed. So you would need a different monitor arm for that.
Thanks for the review and very informative! May I know how thick (in cm) is the bezel? It seems like their website photos are misleading, the bezels of the real product (in your video) seems thicker than their website advertising. Also, is the stand holds the screen sturdy enough, or does it easily shaking if accidentally push or press it?
The bezels are about 9mm wide on the sides and the top. From the bottom its about 2cm.
The stand is really sturdy, because the platform is quite heavy.
@@LICHTCATCHINGTOBY Thank you so much for the info ! =)
I bought the monitor two days ago and the only thing i dislike about it is the bazel. In the official pictures it looks really thin where in reality there is a black 1cm thickness frame around it... It can be seen in your video as well...
Yeah, the marketing material is kinda flawed, i have no idea if that is in anyway legal to advice a product like that. Too be honest, i only saw the official pictures after i bought the monitor, so for me it was not like i was surprised in a bad way. Its quite understandable, if you see buy the products because of the official pictures that you kinda feel tricked. But still, i think the bezel size is really acceptable.
Hi, danke für das gute Review, eine Idee wie ich herausbekommen kann welches Panel (Hersteller / Typ) verbaut ist?
Detailliertere Informationen als diese hier finde ich leider nirgends: www.displayspecifications.com/en/model/46ea1b62
Der Hersteller des Panels ist gefühlt nirgends auffindbar. Falls du was entdeckst würde ich mich über eine Antwort sehr freuen.
Hi, thanks for your nice video! I am quite interested in this monitor but I just found at Lenovo website that there is a model L27Q-30, which seems to have similar characterristics with Q27Q except the apperance…And the probelm is I can't find more information about the model L27Q-30…
Do you know some details about the L27Q-30? Comparing these two, which one would you like to recomend?
Thanks~
It seems like as they use the identical panel. All the hard facts are the same. Same resolution, same refresh rate, same size, AMD freesync
But i am not 100% sure, you would need to contact Lenovo. But it seems to me that they are just selling the same panel in a different (cheaper) housing / design.
Hi there, I am looking to buy this monitor. As it is 27 inches, I was wondering how sharp text would appear on it with this being a QHD? If text is not good on this then maybe it is a better idea to stick with a 24 inch version? My work is mainly based on Word and Excel so this is a very important factor that the text is sharp and clear and not fuzzy
Thank you for your review and all information. I sent you email for color profile. Thanks a lot. Luis
I find your review quite useful, however could you please tell me if you consider it too bright, when using dark themed applications?
You can dim the monitor quite well, also the monitor doesnt offer a high max brightness to begin with.
Thank you
Hi! Thanks for the review. Got here from Reddit. Not a lot of reviews for this monitor. Quick question if I may, can you use this monitor vertically? I am planning to use a vesa and display it vertically. Thanks!
Hiho! With default monitor stand you cant use it vertically, but if you use a different stand that allows to to rotate it: Sure, it will work perfectly! :)
Sounds great! Pulling the trigger now... thanks for the quick reply! :-)
thanks your great review! I have a small desk and would you mind to help me to measure what is the depth of the monitor? I can't find the info anywhere. It's the depth (or distance) from the monitor screen to the back of your wall when you push the monitor as close to the wall as possible. thanks a lot! I would like to see whether it will fit on my small desk. It's not the depth of the stand but the distance between the screen and the back of the wall.
Thanks for your comment! You are not the first to ask: The front of the display is 11,5cm away from the wall (display is not tilted in any degree)
You didn't mention about M1 processor performance regarding to integrated gpu. Do you have any experience about it?
Hi, thanks for the detailed review. May I know how Ghosting in the monitor is?
I havent noticed any ghosting so far.
@@LICHTCATCHINGTOBY That's great, Thanks! 😁✌
Hello, what a brilliant and informative review, my compliments! A couple of question please: how do you see the option to place a standard 15,6" closed lid notebook right over the base to save space? I'm planning to buy a Lenovo Legion 5 which is designed with all the main connections at the back and the combination with this monitor in such configuration would be perfect for my use. Also, could you please explain how the audio is passed from the device to the monitor? ... because I see a similar version of this monitor with USB ports also, and wonder if audio could be passed through USB as well. Basically, if I use a DP connection should I use a separate stereo cable to pass the audio to the monitor speaker s? Thanks!
Thanks for the compliment!
The audio is passed through the HDMI or Displayport connection, there is no need to connect anything else. So just with one cable you get video and audio from the monitor.
The Lenovo Q27h-10 offers a USB-C Port as well. I am just looking at the spec sheet of your Legion 5 now and indeed your notebook seems to have USB-C Port hat supports DisplayPort out. So you can just connect the small USB-C cable to the monitor to get video/audio on the monitor. The Lenovo Q27h-10 also supports charging a connected device, but as your Lenovo Legion 5 is quite powerfull, you are still better of using the dedicated power supply.
I hope I could help you!
@@LICHTCATCHINGTOBY Many thanks for your helpful reply! ... and regarding the option to place a closed lid notebook right above the monitor base, how do you think it would result? I imagine the base is a bit small to work as a complete support for the device, probably resulting in a bit off-center positioning, but using an appropriate support (similar to www.amazon.com/dp/B07GFF82DP/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fabc_hdmZFbWBGYPB4?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1) it should be good enough to work, also considering that the space between the base and the lower bezel of the monitor appears to be quite good.
@@Mattiu75 Yeah, ist going to be off center if you move it all the way back due to the hinge. I measured the base for you:
-Its 23,5cm/9,25 inch wide (25,5cm / 10inch till the hinge starts)
-Its 18cm long ( 7.1 inch)
-And the hight is 11.5cm / 4,5inch
I would just try to move it a little bit further, so the hinge is not in the way. Of course your laptop would then hang over on the sides, dont know if that bothers you. But that would provide great cooling to your notebook, as a lot of air flow is possible that way. But somekind of support like the one you linked should also work fine.
@@LICHTCATCHINGTOBY Many thanks for your helpful clarification and considerations. Actually my main goal is to gain space in the direction of depth and therefore I would rather sacrifice the horizontal centering of the notebook in respect of the monitor base and push the closed notebook forward as much as possible (around 11 cm. if I well understood from your other replies, which is the distance between the rear profile of the base and the monitor panel back cover), also to hide all the cabling coming out at the back of the notebook and the monitor itself. I understand that the uneven centering may trigger some OCD issue but on the other hand the monitor arm is not centered itself already and I think that as long as the device doesn’t trespass the boundaries of the (left side) of the monitor bezel profile then it should be quite OK considered all my other existing constraints. Surprisingly this unusual monitor design could be used to accomodate a relevant practical need more than its peculiar aesthetic would leave to imagine in the first place. Also it seems to represent a quite good choice from a technical perspective. Keep up with the very good work you're doing with your channel! 😉
@@Mattiu75 Glad i could help! The indeed could use that base in a more practical way. For example, they could add a pad inside for wireless charging smartphones / tablets. It seems like that your setup should and look quite good.
If you want to maximize the space on your desk you could look into the Samsung space series, although its more expensive than this monitor.
Thanks for your nice comment :)
Thanks for video! However i wanted to ask something, in case if you know)
Is there any difference between Lenovo Q27q and Lenovo Q27q-10?
I even called Lenovo support and all info they could proveded me is that: "Lenovo Q27q-10" is newer version. However they couldn't say absolutely ANY difference between two =/
I couldn't find them on internet as well.
So, do you have any information about this?
Wud be awesome if you knew that)))
Thanks in advance!
And the video is awesome btw! =)
Sorry for the way too late reply. That statement of the Lenovo support sounds wrong. Both of them are the same monitor. If you use the search function on the Lenovo website you always get relinked to: www.lenovo.com/gb/en/accessories/monitors/lenovoQ27q/
No matter if you look for Q27q or Q27q-10.
Maybe its a regional thing, where in some areas its called Q27q-10. But they are clearly the same monitor.
I enjoyed this review too and had the same question. I think that the newer one, Q27h-10 has USB ports and the older doesn’t, hope this helps.
Thanks for your great review! Do you know how far appart are the VESA mount holes? The usual is 75, 100mm, etc. Also, the only thing that stands me from getting this monitor is the fact that the VESA mount is notin the middle but at the bottom. Do you happen to know any workaround for that? I don't want to drill holes in the wall that I will have to re-do when I change my monitor again :( Thanks!
Hiho! The monitor has a 100mm x 100m VESA mount, as you can find in the manual: download.lenovo.com/consumer/monitor/lenovo_q27q-10_ug_201907_version1_en.pdf
I am not sure if I understand your problem correctly. Why dont you just use something like this: amzn.to/3bQNtZk No need to drill any holes in the wall, just mount it on the table.
@@LICHTCATCHINGTOBY I clearly didn't search for the manual well enough. Thanks!
@@guillerone No worries! I hope you find yourself a suitable VESA mount solution
was exactly my question, you deserved this reflink!
A bit of a long shot, but can the screen collapse down (like the Microsoft Studio) the stand looks like it might have a hinge in the base. I am really after a monitor I can store away easily after use. The portable monitors don't have give the height off the desk I need for long hours in front of the screen.
Hi, thanks for the awesome review. I am really confused should I buy this monitor or LG 27qn600. I look forward for coding. Which one would you recommend?
Hiho! Both of these monitors are extremly similar. Same resolution, same refreshrate, same input latency, same size. I really would go for the monitor you get the better deal for. I do like the design of the Lenovo more, but thats just my personal opinion.
Maybe the deticated low blue light mode could be interesting for you if you do a lot of coding (at late hours) and want to treat your eyes a little bit.
@@LICHTCATCHINGTOBY Thanks :)
Hi ! Is the construction of the support feet sturdy enough to ensure a long lasting relationship with this monitor ?
Yes, definitely!
Hey Toby, thanks for a great review. Can you help me with a few queries? My laptop only has HDMI and USB 3.1 ports.
1. I read that 2k Netflix/Prime streaming only happens over display port. So does the monitor come bundled with a display port to HDMI cable or do I need to buy one separately?
2. Will my 4k Firestick need an HMDI to DP converter to work perfectly? Because I can't seem to find a cheap HDMI to DP adapter online (all $100+), as it needs an active converter.
3. If I use normal HDMI to HDMI cable to connect to the monitor, will Netflix work in atleast FHD or not?
1. My monitor only came with an HDMI to HDMI cable.
2. I just tried my 4K FireStick. It, for some reason, works flawlessly with Netflix and Amazon prime on this monitor, it is also clearly HD and not crappy quality. So you dont need to get anything.
3. It seems like it will only work if you have a new Device which supports a proper HDCP standard (like the FireTVStick). For my old XPS 15 for example the screen just goes completely black when ever i try to open the Netflix app or Netflix via a browser, no matter what resolution i set on my screen.
Your best bet is just to get a cheap USB-C to displayport adapter and an displayport cable, then you should be fine regarding watching Netflix via a laptop.
@@LICHTCATCHINGTOBY Thanks a lot for the quick reply. I have a new Lenovo Ideapad so I'll try my luck with an HDMI cable, maybe it has new proper HDCP standards. Otherwise an HDMI splitter for normal work and Netflix via Firestick seems like the way to go.
Thanks again for the info mate. I'll drop an email for the colour calibration file!
@@divyamadityasingh9427 Would be nice if you would also tell me your results via HDMI whenever you try it. So i can help other people with that information :)
Good review. Do you think a GIGABYTE GeForce® GTX 1060 WINDFORCE 2, 6GB video card would be enough for this monitor ?
Yeah sure, it should handle most games in 2560x1440@75Hz quite easily on high settings
Hi thanks for the review. Does this monitor come with factory calibration for colour accuracy and does this monitor support rec 709. I want to do photo editing on this. Thanks in advance.
No it does not, but you can use my calibrated profile. Every monitor "supports" rec 709, the real question is how much percent of the color space can be displayed. The sRGB color space and rec 709 are very similar, so this monitor is good in that regard.
That stand for the macbook is nice, is it custom made?
No, not at all. I cant link you to the exact model i bought because I live in Austria. But for example if you just look up "Vertical Macbook stand" you get quite a lot of similar results to mine: amzn.to/2XXw3Vs
Hi! I’ve been looking for a monitor that would connect to my 2015 MacBook Pro. Do you think this monitor will do just fine? If not, what kind of monitor do you recommend?
The monitor will do just fine with your older Macbook. I just would recommend you to use a mini-displayport to displayport cable (which isnt included with the monitor)
Thanks for the great review ! I am not sure whether to pick up this model or Lenovo L27Q-30. Could you find exactly what's the difference - do you have an idea ? ( in terms of the screen itself and not additional accessories like speakers etc. )
Thanks !
PS Here you can find the details for the other monitor www.lenovo.com/il/en/monitors/l27q-30#
(Personally I'm not into games - usage would be mainly for photo editing ,reading text , video viewing / editing )
It seems to be pretty much the exact panel. Same resolution, same size, even same uncommon 75Hz refresh rate and the same input lag. Also the ports are exactly the same. So it seems like its the exact same monitor, just in a different design.
@@LICHTCATCHINGTOBY Thanks - btw I found another very similar one , but this one has more ports - the Q27h-10 :)
@@pianoman1973 Yes! That models has an additional USB C port! And it also supports power delivery. So if you do have a notebook that does support that, the monitor can charge your notebook through that one connection. Very cool.
Great review. Thank you. I wanna buy this type in 24". Can you tell me how many cm is from the table to the low frame of the monitor, please? And this length will be the same with 27" and 24"? Thx.
Hello, for the 23,8`` model, The Space between the Table and the low frame of the Monitor is 11,5cm. It should be the same for the 27`` model.
Hey, thanks for the quick reply and helping someone out!
Hello, you have a really nice review here ! I also read a lot of your comments, I have a MacBook Pro model 2019 I think, if i buy a hdmi cu display port cable can I have 75hz ? I have an adapter hdmi to type C and thats why i asked, I also have an Asus Ultrabook UX433fa only with i5-8265u processor and without dedicated video card, and I am not sure if this handles 75hz.
The only option for Mac is a cable display port and type C ? And for my Asus ?
For your mac book you got several options:
-USB-C to HDMI Cabel
-USB-C to Displayport Cable
-USB-C to HDMI Adapter (preferable 2.0 HDMI Standard to be sure its 75hz)
-USB-C to Displayport Adapter (any will do)
I would suggest you do go any displayport way, because displayport always works flawlessly. You also could take a look at the Lenovo Q27h. Its the exact same monitor as this one, but with a USB-C Port. That means you can use a USB-C to USB-C cable directly to the monitor, and the cool thing is that the monitor is also going to charge your mac book.
It seems like your Asus laptop doesnt offer Displayport protocol via the USB-C ports, which is quite unfortunate. That means that using a USB-C to Displayport Cable wouldnt workt. Also the standard of the HDMI port of your Asus is not noted anywhere in the official specs. Therefore I would assume that its just a HDMI 1.4 Port. So connecting it via HDMI directly to the monitor probably wouldnt give you 75Hz at 2560x1440. But maybe it does, you would need to test that. A USB-C Port to Displayport adapter should still work though.
@@LICHTCATCHINGTOBY thank you for your reply, I didnt find also anywhere written what hdmi port I have on my Asus, I saw that Q27h but is a little more expensive, I just ordered Q27Q for 210 euros brand new so I think is best deal for this money. If it wasnt for your review I would buy a different monitor, I saw you on reddit also :).
@@TudorButiulca 210 Euros is an awesome deal! Im sure you will enjoy the monitor.
@@LICHTCATCHINGTOBY Can you please send me your color profile at tudor.bn@gmail.com ? Thank you.
Apparently the (newer?) Q27h version has a USB-C hub built-in.
Yes it does. It not only allows to use a USB-C cable to get video out to the monitor, but also charges your laptop. Additionally, you have two USB Ports on the monitor, so it also functions as a USB HUB.
Hi,
is it really 2560x1440@75Hz? Is there option is the menu to choose between 60 and 75, because here is stated that Native resolution is 2560x1440 at 60Hz ( support.lenovo.com/uk/en/solutions/q27q_10 ).
And one more thing if you know is it 8bit panel or 6bit+FRC?
Thanks.
Sorry for the late answer, i didnt get a youtube notification :( The monitor is 75Hz native, but you can just set it to 60 on your Windows / Apple computer. No idea why it says 60Hz on that link, in every other document / listing it clearly says 75Hz. And the difference is quite noticeable. The panel should be 8bit
Background music seems to be moshimoss - Untitled Song (Live at Camp Off-Tone 2015)
No, the song is: Approaching - Be still the earth
Some wanna buy an inexpensive biz model and expect a more expensive gaming model. Go figure.
Just got a 21" T22i-10 for my office. No built-in speakers, but has a DP input along with a usb hub on the side. Happy with my "office monitor".
Sounds like an awesome deal, I am glad that you are happy with your purchase.
@@LICHTCATCHINGTOBY Thanks buddy.
Good review. So You think its a risk to use also for gaming? I need a monitor for work (I´m a graphic designer) but I´m also a gamer! An ocasional one. So, when I play, I also want the best possible experience... 8) I Have a PC with NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 installed. Do you have other sugestion? Best regards
You will be fine with this monitor regarding gaming, but it will be not such a great experience as with a real gaming monitor. Lately a few new fast IPS gaming monitors arrived, like this one: amzn.to/3d8e5Fg
There you get great picture quality thanks to IPS and a huge color coverage of sRGB and DCI-P3 but also 1ms lag and 144 Hz. (Of course, that monitor is also more expensive).
If you really looking for the best possible experience you also could look into getting one dedicated gaming monitor as an second monitor, some of them a already really cheap: amzn.to/2N2WBzs
Overall it seems like this monitor would not be the perfect fit for you as it is a compromise.
@@LICHTCATCHINGTOBY thank you for your response! I will take your notes in consideration. Looking for more great reviwes!
How is the IPS glow on this display? I have a 23" 1080p LG IPS monitor with really bad IPS glow and looking to upgrade to QHD in the future..
There is only a tiny amount of IPS glow on my monitor.
This was so therapeutic to watch and I don't even wanna buy a monitor . LOL
Huuu.... why? :D
Good review. Ordered this monitor while on offer. Can you please send me the calibrated color settings you have. Thanks
Just sent it to you.
LICHTCATCHINGTOBY me too please?
@@dunsin7253 Could you send me en email? You find my contact details in the video description
@@LICHTCATCHINGTOBY Would also love the color settings you're using. Thanks.
@@davidgardella5213 Could you send me en email? You find my contact details in the video description
Thanks for the informative video. How would I connect my surface pro 7 to this? Vis a USBC to hdmi or USBC to vga?
Any USB C to HDMI adapter or a USB C to Displaypot adapter would work fine. Like this one: amzn.to/3fuVqoi
@@LICHTCATCHINGTOBY thanks so much!
Hey grt video. Can u pls confirm if we can play netflix and prime at 2k? Coz I have seen in reviews that its not HDCP 2.2 COMPLIANT!
I have never had any problems watching Netflix on this monitor (and there was/is no quality drop). Im using it via the Displayport, i will later try it via HDMI aswell.
Okay wow, i just checked it via HDMI. (I was always connected via a dock, and the dock was connected via displayport)
There indeed seems to be a problem with HDCP via HDMI, for example when i watch Netflix i get a black screen. Thats really strange. Via the dock that connects via displayport netflix is working perfectly fine.
@@LICHTCATCHINGTOBY thank u for confirming. Can u pls share the details of the dock setup u r using?
Thanks for the review. Any chance you could send me the color profile for this monitor? Thanks.
Sure! Just message me your email address via Instagram or send me an email directly. Contact details are in the video description
I am also interested in the color profile for this monitor!
@@Joshfigueira1 I already sent you the email yesterday. Did you receive it?
I’m having an issue with this monitor. It’s crooked and slanting to the left. I’m not sure how to adjust it or fix it.
Hi
Is there any way to plug in a usb keyboard. I would be connecting my older MacBook Pro via hdmi, so would I be able to plug the keyboard into that and the keyboard still work.
I am sorry there is no USB ports on the monitor.
can you please give me the color profile? I just bought this monitor based on your review, and to be honest I am not very happy with the colors.
I have a lenovo think vision p27 h-20 screen, but the problem is that the three USBs in the screen are not working. The only thing that works is the USB that sells charging only, and there is no place in the screen for the USB like the one in the printer because the old screen had this cable and when I was I connected it to it. The USB on the screen was working, so I don’t know how to turn on the USB on the Lenovo screen.. Please reply
Hiho! That sounds strange. How are you connected with the monitor? Which ports are you using to get a picture on the monitor? What device are you using?
Any new reviews on which monitor is better L27q-30 Quad HD 27 or Q27q-10 Quad HD 27?
It seems like as they use the identical panel. All the hard facts are the same. Same resolution, same refresh rate, same size, AMD freesync
But i am not 100% sure, you would need to contact Lenovo. But it seems to me that they are just selling the same panel in a different (cheaper) housing / design.
Is it possible to mount the stand into the other direction? I want to place two monitors right next to each other and I would like to mount them mirrored. Thanks in advance
That sounds like such a cool idea, but thats not unfortunately not possible :(
Do you know what the difference between the Lenovo L27q-30 & the Lenovo Q27q-10 is?
They seem to be identical except for the monitor stand. So they offer the same panel, but you pay a little bit more for the Q27q-10 due to the nicer design. Thats just my thought by comparing the technical spec sheet. You should ask the Lenovo support for a define answer.
Which did you go for in the end? I'm having a dilemma of which to go with.
Can you measure how length of the stand from the back to the front. E.g. if you put the monitor against a wall, how far out does the monitor come out? Thanks!
I just tried that out for you. The front of the display is 11,5cm away from the wall (display is not tilted in any degree)
LICHTCATCHINGTOBY thanks! :)
LICHTCATCHINGTOBY can you measure the height from bottom to top including the stand?
@@Anil75987 From top to bottom, again not tilted, it is 47,8cm
@@LICHTCATCHINGTOBY thanks!!
Is it good for graphic designing?
I mean like the color accuracy and other color related specs
The color accuracy is pretty good for the price. If you need need a screen with 100% adobeRGB or 10bit then you are good to go, but if you do you need to spend more money anyway.
Hi Brother, I have Mac, someone in Amazon reviews said that this won't give 1440 if we use hdmi cable and instead we should use USBC to display port cable, also he says that we can't get 75 Hz while using Mac with this monitor,
Please let me know if you have insights about it.
I have ordered it
Depends on which Mac you are using. 2560x1440 via HDMI is possible at 60HZ via HDMI 1.4 (that standard is almost a decade old)
For 2560x1440@75Hz a HDMI 2.0 adapter or a usb c/ displayport connection is necessary. But it definitely works. My girlfriend uses the monitor via Displayport at 2560x1440@75Hz
Hello @LICHTCATCHINGTOBY, thanks for the review! I bought this monitor and was wondering if you can help me. I'm used to aving monitors turning black when I set brightness and contrast to very low values, near 0. However, doing that to this monitor, leaves the image completely "normal", meaning I wouldn't say brightness is low at all, and working with apps with white background at night is still eye killing. Is this normal or did I get a broken one?
Thanks in advance.
Hiho Fernando! Where do you turn down the brightness? Im guessing you using a Notebook / Macbook and trying to adjust the brightness via the onboard brightness control on the keyboard ofthe notebook? That doesnt work, you cant change such settings just by being connected to a monitor. If you want to turn down the brightness you need to to that in the menu of the monitor. You find the buttons on the bottom right of the monitor.
I hope that helps!
@@LICHTCATCHINGTOBY Hi! Thanks for answering! No, I'm using the OSD menu from the monitor. It does work, in the sense that the brightness varies, but it doesn't get low enough for comfort at night.
@@fcmclxxix Ohh, i am sorry for my false assumption. This monitor doesnt really go that dim at 0 zero brightness level. There is a change from 100 to 0, but its suttle. If you dont see any change at all then something is wrong.
You also can try to lower the contrast setting, as it also effects peak brightness. For night use also the dedicated "Low Blue light filter" mode could be interesting. Other than that, you are stuck with software tweaks like that one: superuser.com/questions/1086993/dim-screen-below-minimum-brightness-level#:~:text=You%20can%20use%20alt%20%2B%20pgdn,alt%20%2B%20pgup%20to%20increase%20brightness.&text=For%20Windows%20Intel%20users%3A%20right,reduce%20brightness%20for%20your%20screen.
Depending on the device (the graphics card to be precise) you are using, you will find that setting somewhere else. But Nvidia and AMD also offers easy tools for that. Or are you using a mac?
I am really sorry that I didnt mention the minimal brightness or even measured it. Its really hard to find any reviews mention it, not even the really detailed review of rtings.com mentions it. Seems like a specification everyone forgets to test.
@@LICHTCATCHINGTOBY No worries. I only found your review afterwards, when I was researching if there was something wrong with it. I'm using Linux. I found the command to set the brightness by software, but I wanted to be sure the hardware was ok.
Even if you tested the minimum brightness, I have no idea what a good value for me would be.
I'm starting to wonder if I should have gone with VA technologie. Or even TN. I'm usually sitting right in front of the screen.
I know it is probably too early for this question but, hey, all that can happen is you can say "not yet...."
I'm hoping to connect this monitor to the new Mac Mini M1. Have the adapter (USB-C to DP). So wondering if you are aware of any issues related to the connection with the new chip?
I really wasnt expecting questions about the new M1 powered apple devices so soon :D Now, i havent tested it personally nor did i get any questions regarding it.
I am 99% sure that it will just work out of the box with any adapter. The only devices that had trouble with this monitor are quite old ones (older than 5 years) which only have a hdmi port. HDMI 1.4 and before dont handle the 75 refresh rate well.
Thanks. I will let you know when I get it how it all works.
Any updates? Doing the identical setup. Thank you
@@Papane1 Just set it up yesterday. It seems fine. I had the connection via HDMI at first (with the motor''s included cable) and then switched to USB-C-to-DP; that connection seems to improve on HDMI.
Also used Toby's calibrated ICC (thanks, Toby) which seems great for the color.
I saw the review on rtings.com and it mention that the sRGB XY of 88.8 percent. So that's mean after callibration it would improve at lot more? ( yours show 96%). Actually I got one more question, since I am buying a monitor for better studying experience at home, LG29wk600 is a bit bigger and should be a good option for multitasking, but this lenovo monitor have better looks in my opinion and higher resolution, what do you think?
Calibration always can help quite a bit. But you could just use my profile, so you dont have to calibrate it yourself.
You really only can answer the size question yourself. I would recommend you to just measure the size of the screen (for example on a piece of cardboard) and try it on your desk. Just look if 27 inch seems enough or if 29inch is already too big.
Also, the aspect ratio of the screens is completely different. I am personally not a great fan of ultrawide monitors, i would just would prefer a second monitor. But thats just personal taste. Also, the Lenovo monitor has the refresh rate advantage (75hz vs. 60hz)
@@LICHTCATCHINGTOBY thanks for the advice!!
Looks good Thank you for the review. I have a question, I am thinking of buying one and I had seen some people saying that there is no inbuilt speaker, which means there is no audio that comes through the monitor unless you only use headphones for the audio, are you able to let us know. Thank you!
I can confirm that this speaker had build-in speakers, i use then all the time.
LICHTCATCHINGTOBY
Can you play the PS4 on it?
@@kikearce2493 Yes you can, but you only will have 60Hz.
Is this out of the box 75hz or we need to set it in nvidia control panel?
Hello, I'm an old guy trying to set up this monitor for the first time. It's hooked up to a 2017 MacBook Pro. When I turned it on the images and text are stretched out horizontally to the point of being unreadable. Could you please tell me how to adjust it so it's normal? Too bad this monitor didn't come with instructions.
Hiho Stan! I hope i can help you. Could you tell me what settings you have selected in the monitor settings menu? The screen should look something like this: support.apple.com/library/content/dam/edam/applecare/images/en_US/osx/el_cap-system_prefs-displays-scaled.png
And could you also tell me how you are connected to the monitor? Are you using HDMI or the minidisplayport / thunderbolt 2 port on your mac?
@@LICHTCATCHINGTOBY Thanks. I figured it out. All I had to do was turn my laptop off and on again. Somehow that did the trick.
FYI: Monitor weeks really well with my MBP (late 2013) with mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable. I even get up to 74.63 hz but then it lags a little bit.
there is the Q27h-10 for USB-C hub, you just got the one without USB
The Q27h-10 wasnt released yet when I ordered this monitor! Glad that they added a model with an USB c port
@@LICHTCATCHINGTOBY they probably took your advice
Thanks for the video. Will this monitor connect to PS4?
Yes it will! But the ps4 doesnt support 2560x1440, it only will output 1080p (or 4k). So your ps4 wont take full advantage of that monitor.
"...even if it's not turned on."
It might not be, but I sure am
Turned on by what?
@@LICHTCATCHINGTOBY he's referencing 1:06 haha
Hello sir,
I bought Lenovo Q24h-10 usb c type monitor, The screen is very bright for me to work. There is a button of brightness but it is not working.
Neither I am able to access brightness or contrast options from OSD menu (it is disabled). Do you have similar issue with ThinkVision monitor. Would you please help me how to adjust the brightness. Would be great help, Thanks!!
Sorry for my late reply! Have you fixed this yet?
As i have never used the Q24h-10 before myself, I can only guess that it uses the same OSD. It could be possible that, whatever picture profile you are using, that this setting is disabling contrast and brightness. There should be something like a "neutral" picture profile, that what i am using with the Q27, and then it works just fine for me.
Hallo. Thanks for the short review. I have a question for you. How good/bad is the IPS glow - or in other words - the black uniformity when watching in a dark room?
Thanks for your comment. Good question, I havent noticed anything dramatic yet. I will measure it in the evening and get back to you.
@@tobiass.106 That'd be appreciated. I currently have a Philips 275E1S 27" which I'm thinking of returning for this Lenovo monitor. The Philips has a great picture and was quite a lot cheaper, about 40%. But the right side of my screen has very bad glow that destroys dark shade details with a grease-like smear, which I dislike a lot. The left side has respectable black levels, though.
Could you contact me via Instagram so i can send you the whole PDF of the calibration results i just did?
@@LICHTCATCHINGTOBY I also have this monitor! Can you send the calibration to me? (deguito@gmail.com)
hey! did you return the Philips after all and got this one? and if so, is this one better then the Philips? how's the backlight bleeding in comparison?
Could you compare this lenovo with dell ultra sharp u2419 to choose best one ? Thank you
As i dont have the dell monitor i only can compare the specs sheet:
Pro for lenovo:
+ Higher resolution
+higher refreshrate
+lower input lag
+AMD Freesync
+built in speakers
Pro for the dell ultra sharp u2419:
+way more ports
+even USB ports on the side
+USB-C Port (only on the u2419C)
Both offer IPS, both offer good sRGB coverage, both have VESA mounts and both have a nice design. Just consider the size difference, as 27 inch is quite a lot larger than 24 inch. They are certainly both good monitors.
