Very responsive compared to previous decades of PC use.
On a self built RX6800/5800X3D system though and it was snappy as never before.Used the stand and it was bottom on, only one way on easy and one handle screw to tighten there.The main arm attached one way one and one slider/switch to hold and then let go as you put it on.Did not have a screen protector during shipping and gives a tiny sticker there instead with that message to remove, ODD! But was packed nice in Styrofoam and a bag around the actual monitor.Came with every cable and a power brick that uses a thick 12V cable then to the wall for power.All felt well done for this price point.Worked fine new right out of the box and no broken pixels.Would buy again, will update if any issues.

Silky Smooth Motion with beautiful colors out of the box.
The Viewsonic Xg2736-2k is Perfectly priced. The display came without any damage to the packaging. The display is beautiful to look at and motion clarity is superb.

Works, but you cannot turn the monitor off.
The monitor works as required except for there being no power button. There is a “joystick” on the back that controls settings and turns on the monitor. The only way to turn the monitor off any time you need to is to rip out the power cord. Anytime you plug in the power cord the monitor will imediately turn on with no way to turn it off short of unplugging it.To “turn off” the monitor, you have to shut your computer down fully. Once your computer is fully off, you have to wait for the built in timer. The RGB lights on the back will turn off and the power light will turn amber. Then you can push in the joystick to “turn off” the monitor.Imagine not being able to turn off your TV or vehicle and having to wait for timers to run out and for them to shut themselves off. It’s that poorly designed. I can’t leave my computer running and shut the monitors off while I go to the store, or leave my computer rendering, etc. overnight with the monitors off.I’ve used numerous Viewsonic monitors for 2 decades now and this is a recent change. I will not be buying anymore Viewsonic monitors if they cannot include the most basic and important functionality.

A bit on the dim side
I bought the ViewSonic XG2736-2k to replace a XG270QG because I was looking to get a 240hz panel, and I am generally pleased with ViewSonic’s offerings. However, the XG2736-2K is rated at only 300 nits which is rather dim compared with many other monitors it’s competing against at the price point. Even the XG270QG is a 350 nit monitor. Most other monitors I have looked at as an alternative, such as the HP Omen 27QS or LG 27GR83Q-B, are 400 nits or brighter. Overall, I do like the XG2736-2k, but I am displeased/dissatisfied with how dim it is compared to what I’m used to from ViewSonic, let alone what else is available.

Amazing monitor
I’m pretty good at calibrating monitors to look gorgeous, but I had no idea I would make this 2k monitor look better than my 4K 32 inch. The stand is amazing, great colors, great brightness, and the games that support 120 FPS on PS5 look amazing best purchase I’ve made in years

Happy with this monitor
Great picture and buttery smooth. Looks a lot better than my 32″ Odyssey G5

1 star for Amazon because they did not do marketing research
Are you serious? You sell this as a OLED QHD monitor when its just backlight regular LED monitor. The marketing is also false when it comes to HDR10, it does not work with xbox on hdmi 2.0, i will try with hdmi 2.1 and if it doesnt work i’ll just return this.Edit: Tried hdmi 2.1 and the consoles still don’t turn on hdr-10. The xbox can only do Hdr in 4k which this monitor does not support. Disappointing to see this from a Gaming monitor. The colors in sdr are ok, but besides 2k and 120hz you can’t get anything else out of this monitor on consoles

Takes a couple seconds longer than I’m used to to wake up, and the colours on the back do now flow smoothly, but it works and still looks cool!

Coming from a 1080p 27 inch this has great color and and brightness. It does 1440p/120 with hdr on ps5 If you are wondering. the monitor itself sits very tall on the mount. This monitor comes with speakers. Pretty sure it didn’t say that on the box. The speakers get pretty loud and for a monitor speaker it’s actually pretty good, obviously it’s not Bose or Sony. But it’s still pretty good. There is a good amount of options as well for the settings, it’s has a joystick no buttons which is a plus.

Not sure if mine was defective, but FreeSync Premium isn’t available in AMD software, even after enabling it in the monitor settings. It should work over USB C DP Alt, according to the website. It shows Adaptive Sync Compatible instead, which means its using the standard Vesa VRR instead.The reason I purchased this, was to plug in my ROG Ally X for desktop gaming. However not having the advertised freesync premium is disappointing. Unfortunately this monitor doesn’t even have a USB hub to plug in your mouse/keyboard. Strange, as most USB C monitors feature one. This isn’t an issue for most gaming computers, but for gaming handhelds that only have a single USB C port, this would require buying a separate USB C hub which defeats the purpose of the single cable solution.Packaging leaves a lot to be desired, as entire parts of the screen are exposed to the cardboard box. Thankfully, mine came in good condition.Colors looks good, but there’s a little backlight bleed as expected. The stand has a good height to it, and the RGB is actually quite nice. I’m going to have to return mine for the above reasons, but seems like a good monitor otherwise.
