AOC 27B3CA2 27″ 100Hz IPS Monitor Review

A Closer Look

This is a really nice and simple, yet very clean and professional-looking monitor. It’s not outlandishly gamer, but it’s not a completely generic-looking office monitor either, so having it in your home, it is not going to be an eyesore either way.

It features slim bezels on all sides, so if you are running multiple displays, they’re unlikely to become a distraction.

There’s a simple AOC logo in the bottom centre, again, pretty understated and not distracting.

No silly touch controls here, just a simple set of actual buttons on the bottom edge of the panel that allow you to control the UI.

The stand is nice and compact, with a round base that I think looks pretty attractive. It also doesn’t take up much space, so you can get the monitor far back on your desk or close to a wall easily enough, and it’s not going to get in the way of your peripherals.

Around the back, the monitor is very clean looking with a curved but otherwise smooth back panel.

There are four VESA screw mounts in the back, so you can mount it on a wall bracket, arm, or other stand of your choosing. As you can see, the default stand just clips into the back is very simple to set up, and is easy to remove should you need to.

The inputs are all recessed into the back of the display and higher up too, so connectors aren’t going to show handing down below the bottom bezel.
