I thought a monitor like this was impossible.

I have no idea how they're doing it, but the Innocn 27G1S is an insanely fast gaming monitor. The response times easily beat many fast IPS monitors and even can compete with TN panel monitors. This is one of the best 240 Hz, 1440p monitors for FPS games.

If only they or someone else made a 32" or their 39" model with this panel I'd be completely sold. Great review. Subbed.

The sad part is that the screen is no longer available anywhere and no longer seems to be produced... The screen won't have lived long... Unfortunately :(

Thankyou, techless for reviewing this, Im currently in China and this monitor was so popular since its an excellent fast va monitor, Im actually ordering this monitor today and only thing I missed was calibrated icc profile, So now Im waiting to try this profile and how its looks on monitor, Noted : I have used va with 8ms response time before everthing is fine and its look a lot easier on eyes than any other ips I have used, the only pain point was its produce blur when moving fast even on AAA game and Fps, So this is my second Va monitor Im willing to try out.

This brother is the truth when it comes to monitor reviews 👍🏿

While I think that we neccessarily don't progress as much in other sectors, the monitor market is highly competetive. Not only in general technology but also in prices. Something I would dream about with GPUs.

[WrexBF]

Unfortunately, that adaptive sync issue is a deal breaker.

[Gergo]

Would be great if more monitors like this popped up with different specs. I choose IPS because of VA smearing, but I always wish for better contrast ratio and dark room performance.

[TechOtakuYT]

Might actually grab one myself cuz it seems soo good

[Thedevans]

That is... absolutely insane performance for a VA panel. Do you know anything else about this panel tech, and if the panel is used in any other monitors? I'm shocked I haven't heard anything about this model before

[srvuk]

On the surface, for the mentioned price, it looks pretty good overall.

But the affiliate link went nowhere useful and the regular price of this seems to be in the $450 area, which is rather less value.

Didn't Samsung sold the patents of their fast VA a few months back? It even has the same problems.

[shulehr]

if only this was sold in my country...

[eckomind]

I got this monitor for 250 dollars. I did not expect much from the monitor but it really is as good as he says in the video. It's really awesome for gaming as long as you don't care about HDR. HDR is the only thing it can't do properly. Otherwise, this monitor is a better choice than OLED if you don't want to worry about burn in.

This video was very helpful with my purchase.

Why AOC AG275QXN and AG275QZN were not tested? This one is really difficult to get and the brand does not give too much confidence about after sales service.

[Agp]

If the monitor is at 300 or lower is a good buy, but if it goes higher Innocn can keep it

[elpituyt]

Acer have some 250hz va monitors should check those out

[GHOSTGCI]

Notnsure where you got the VA idea as I have it on amazon in UK and in every part of description it says its fast IPS

[roburritoDX]

There's an updated model of this, using an IPS panel now. I was wondering if you could check it out.

[arsenvain]

Hey, thank you for the review!
Would you recommend buy this monitor instead of Alienware AW2723df?
