The AOC monitor is ideal for those who demand high resolution and performance. It features QHD resolution, low input lag, and a wide color gamut combined with a height-adjustable stand. The 165Hz refresh rate, fast 1ms MPRT response time, and support for Adaptive Sync technology eliminate screen tearing and stuttering for a smooth gaming experience.
QHD
With a resolution of 2560 x 1440, Quad HD (QHD) offers superior image quality and sharp images that reveal the finest details. The 16:9 widescreen dimension provides plenty of space to spread out and work comfortably, while allowing you to enjoy games or movies in their original size.
Refresh Rate 165Hz
The 165Hz refresh rate, more than double the industry standard of 60Hz, makes games run as smoothly as silk. Realize the potential of your graphics card. Forget screen tearing and forget motion blur. Feel your reflexes become one with the action.
MPRT Response Time 1ms
MPRT is an acronym for Moving Picture Response Time. MPRT technology turns off and on your screen's backlight during image changes. With the reduced time a frame appears on the screen, "ghosting" and "blurring" effects are minimized, resulting in a smoother, more "fluid" gaming experience.
FreeSync Premium
Enjoy better image quality even in fast-paced games, regardless of the GPU you are using. FreeSync Premium ensures a high refresh rate of at least 120Hz, as well as low frame rate compensation for AMD graphics cards.
G-Sync
Dynamically synchronizing the screen's refresh rate with the image's frame rate, NVIDIA G-Sync minimizes tearing, ensuring seamless and smooth gameplay.
IPS Panel
The IPS panel ensures an excellent viewing experience with vivid yet bright and accurate colors. The colors appear consistent regardless of the angle you view the screen from.
Low input lag
Unleash your reflexes by switching to AOC Low Input Lag mode. This mode reconfigures the monitor for the benefit of raw response time, giving you the ultimate advantage in challenging situations during gameplay.
Minimal Distraction for the Ultimate Battle Station
Expand your view with a multi-monitor setup. The narrow bezel and frameless design offer minimal distraction for the ultimate battle station.
G-Menu
AOC G-Menu is a free tool that you can install on your computer to achieve full customization combined with maximum convenience.
Adjustable Stand
Raise or lower the screen according to each person's height and preferences. The easily adjustable stand ensures hours of comfort.

The only gaming 24" 1440p monitor in the Greek market.
The buttons and menu are difficult to use.
I received it with a very noticeable backlight bleed in the bottom left corner.
On the positive side, the after-sales support is good as they replaced it with a refurbished Q27G2S/EU after I reported the damage.
I compared this monitor to the Philips E line and honestly, it was very difficult to choose which one to get.
If this monitor was 2K, I would have taken it without a second thought.
The build quality is incredible. Very sturdy base that is also incredibly flexible.
You can adjust the monitor to whatever height and angle you prefer.
The material seems to be of very good quality plastic combined with a metal frame.
The colors are very vibrant, slightly worse than the Philips.
However, it has an extra year of warranty (3 years in total) and includes HDMI and Display port cables together! ++ It is also considerably cheaper
Today's purchase and the first impressions are very good. Easy assembly and very stable base. Image quality compared to 1080p is great both during the day and at night. Everything is clearer and with great clarity that does not tire the eyes at all, and this is due to the higher ppi compared to a 1080p and because of the size. For me, 24" is the ideal size for 1440p. The only drawback is the buttons for adjusting it, which are unacceptable, but fortunately there is the AOC G-MENU program that you can download and adjust everything from there.
Anyone transitioning from 1080p to this 1440p monitor will be pleasantly surprised!
Negatives:
1. (Correctable) The out-of-the-box colors are not well calibrated and require some tweaking to get them where you want, but it's something that can be easily done (once you get used to the menu) and perfectly.
2. The OSD menu and menu controls are very poor, which is extremely frustrating until you get used to it, especially for a monitor of this quality!
Update to the review:
After several days of use, I would like to add something that you won't see mentioned in any 24-inch 1440p monitor review.
After a few days of use, I noticed a significant improvement in the overall computer experience, whether it's for simple use, work, or gaming.
Using a 24-inch monitor with this resolution and a PPI of 123 only has positive effects, and I really wonder why there isn't a wide range of options available in larger sizes from different companies!
Excellent monitor! It performs exceptionally well. Initially, I had doubts about AOC, but it proved me wrong in every aspect.
1. The resolution of 2560x1440 MUST be for 24 inches and NOT for 27. Full HD resolution is outdated and strains the eyes as you can clearly see the pixels.
2. It is the only 1440p gaming monitor on the market (refresh rate > 144hz) in 24 inches, so it is the only option.
3. Its colors are very good, and you can't see any pixels even if you try. It resembles a mobile phone screen.
4. I enjoy reading and writing texts due to its high PPI. I have my old 1080p monitor (Ultragear 24GN650) as a second monitor, and I don't even want to look at it. I'm considering getting a second one instead of the LG.
Negatives:
1. (Corrected) The out-of-the-box colors are poorly calibrated, and someone might be disappointed, thinking they got a bad monitor.
2. (Corrected) The factory brightness is set at 50%, which is very low.
3. The menu with the buttons is very bad. They offer a masterpiece in the market for this price, but they have a terrible menu that makes it difficult to adjust the settings.
Incredible screen for those who simply need a 24" monitor, and not a huge 27" one, not to mention that with a 2K resolution, the PPI is enormous and everything appears very sharp, with no visible pixels.
This particular monitor was purchased as an upgrade (previous monitor was the AOC G2460VQ6 bought four years ago) but due to limited space, I chose to stay with the same inches.
The AOC monitor offers excellent value for money, with very clear colors (although it took me some time to find the ideal color settings), features that are hard to find in monitors of these inches, and a stand that allows you to change the angle and height of the screen.
The only negative, something that was also mentioned by another owner, is the fact that once again in AOC monitors, there are somewhat awkward buttons for changing image settings. Personally, considering the cost of the monitor, this is not a reason to deduct a star from the monitor, but it is certainly not the most convenient.
The screen is a one-way street for someone who wants higher than 1080p resolution in a few inches. The small size combined with the 2k resolution gives a fairly high ppi, almost equal to that of a 32" 4k. As a panel, it can easily be compared to the best 2k IPS panels in terms of response time (medium ov) and colors/contrast. G-sync is recognized and activated automatically. Ergonomically, it has everything a screen needs (height adjustment, right-left/up-down angle adjustment, rotation). At the price of 200-250, it is an excellent choice. Another positive aspect is that it can be used as a second screen alongside a larger one without differences in refresh rate and resolution, which causes many small inconveniences in a multi-monitor setup
Very good solution for someone who wants a 2K monitor but doesn't have the space for a 27-inch screen. The image is great, although I was a little scared when I first opened it because out of the box it was a bit dark, but when I adjusted it, it looked better. The big downside is that it doesn't have a stick for the menu and it has buttons that are not the best.
