Usually you have to choose whether a monitor is sharp or fast: 4K models often run at 60 Hz, while fast gaming monitors have a lower resolution. Here 3840 × 2160 pixels and a refresh rate of up to 160 Hz come together, so games look both detailed and fluid. For work, 4K on a 27-inch screen gives very crisp text and plenty of room.
Fast IPS is a quicker version of the IPS panel: it keeps the even colour and 178° viewing angles typical of IPS, but the pixels switch faster. The 1 ms response time reduces blur on moving objects in fast shooters and racing games. A 1000:1 contrast ratio and typical brightness of 350 cd/m² give a balanced picture in games and films alike.
The USB-C port carries picture and supplies up to 65 W to a laptop, so during the day the laptop connects with one cable and charges at the same time. A gaming PC can go on DisplayPort and a console on one of the two HDMI ports, so every device can stay connected and you switch inputs from the menu. Built-in speakers are handy for video calls and everyday audio.
The anti-glare surface dampens reflections from windows and lamps, which matters in dark game scenes and when working in a bright room. The WLED backlight provides even brightness across the whole screen. Because the 27-inch screen has a 4K resolution, photos, text and game interfaces look very sharp even up close.
The screen can be raised and lowered, tilted, swivelled and turned to portrait, so you can find a comfortable position for both gaming and work. The VESA 100 × 100 interface lets you put the monitor on an arm. The white body suits a light gaming corner or home office; the monitor weighs 6.58 kg and measures 61.4 × 52.6 × 26.2 cm with the stand.
Gamers who do not want to choose between 4K sharpness and a high refresh rate; laptop users who connect through a single USB-C cable during the day and play in the evening; photo editors and creators who value 4K resolution and IPS colour; and anyone looking for a white monitor that suits a bright room.

Yes, the monitor has a VESA 100 × 100 interface that fits standard wall and desk mounts.
Yes, a console can be connected to either HDMI port and 4K picture works. The manufacturer does not specify which refresh rate is supported over HDMI; 160 Hz is the monitor's maximum.
Yes, speakers are built in. The manufacturer does not specify their output power; for games and films, headphones or separate speakers give fuller sound.
