The AOC Q27G40XMN is a budget-friendly 27-inch, 1440p Mini LED gaming monitor. It’s a Best Buy-exclusive model in North America that’s newer than the popular AOC Q27G3XMN. It carries over many of the same specs and features as the older model, like the 180Hz refresh rate, VRR support, and VA panel. However, it also includes 1,152 dimming zones, which is even more than the Q27G3XMN. It competes with other Mini LED monitors, like the Xiaomi G Pro 27i and the Acer Nitro XV275U P3biipx. It’s limited in extra features otherwise, and comes with a less ergonomic stand than the older Q27G3XMN.
