These monitors were expected to be released last month and that didn't happen. Acer's X27 Predator and ASUS' PG27UQ are the two expected releases, but as you might guess, pricing won't be fair. Here's just hoping that it isn't as much out of court, quoting €2556.50 for ASUS' PG27UQ from one source.

    As you mention pricing will be crazy and I for one believe 27" is too small at 4k.

    For me to buy it is all on price. I would be willing to spend 2K on it anything more pushes it for me. Student loans are choking hazards. Be careful kiddos

    As long as your popular enough, you can get away with anything.

    What's with the 'wings' on that thing? Looks like a cheap gimmick...

    The flaps are suppose to help reduce unwanted reflections from reaching the screen.

    Still feels kind of odd to use flaps if you ask me. I would agree it seems like a gimmick since it’s not like a TV set has them and still can offer a great image without light reflections.

    Use an Associates Code & SAVE 5% - 10% on your purchase. Just click on the associates banner to save, or enter the associates code at checkout on your next purchase. If you choose to use my code I want to personally say "Thank You" for using it.

    Seamlessly? ..or do they leave ugly hinges on the edges of the panel when the flaps are removed?
     
    ..sorry, I should just look it up myself, but I'm out of time.

    Sorry @ $2K price tag it should be a 30 inch -- I'll wait for a serious sale around the end of the year
