With an ultra-thin enclosure of only 6.6mm, the R1 Series monitors are thinner than many smartphones. The beautiful and sleek design fits perfectly into your modern home and contributes to an elegant working environment. The ZeroFrame design maximises the view and minimises visual clutter with a bezel so thin you barely notice it.

There's nothing wrong with 4ms, I wish people would stop with all this refresh rate garbage!
I need to get a monitor mainly for work. Lots of windows including spreadsheets. May also try to using it for a bit of video editing. Not for gaming. Was planning to go for a 24" IPS that can be had for around £100. Is it worth investing in a 27" IPS FHD instead for a 60% premium? Or stick to a 24"?

very thin frame but if it's anything like the 2 x 22EA63 I use at work then the image stops about 1cm all round. So it actually looks like it has a much thicker frame than it has when you are using it.

any suggestions for the most appealing in a looks perspective? slim bezel, nice stand, 27" 1080p and decent enough for pc gaming?

Stupid connectors pointing back. Why would you care if it is thin, if you cant put it against a flat wall?
I need a thin monitor to actually save space, not just be stupid and listen to this marketing crap about that thin is cool.

I think it's thin because they don't need to be thick?

It's easy to buy 90 degree elbow connectors so not an end of the world situation.

Guys any recommendations of decent 27 2k or 4k monitor for work within £300?
in case somebody was after a cheaper, zero frame IPS monitor, then I would recommend LG 23EA63V 23 inch IPS LED model. It is smaller, but can be had for £116.99 from Maplin. it's discontinued model, so not many left. I've had mine for about 3 years now and i'm very happy with it.

Good deal, but resolution might be cause of cold votes. On a 27" screen people are usually looking for 2k plus.
And 4ms response time is the lowest possible at this price point. IPS monitors @ 1ms response time will be significantly more expensive.

I'm not looking for 2K plus I'm looking for 144Hz.

Bought this monday and got it yesterday. Its surprised me with how sturdy it is for the size. Great monitor for the price if you want a 27 inch 1080 IPS panel.

It's not about that it's about ghosting.

It's absolute nonsense indeed, if lag is what people are worried about then they should be more worried about the absolute input lag which on some monitors can can vary from anywhere as low as 18ms to as high as 65ms, or even more, so I don't think an extra, imperceivable, 3ms is going to make a difference a world of difference.

Too anorexic for me. looks like it would snap if I tapped it in the wrong place. Like the low profile bezel but it should be more reinforced on the rear.

Seems like a cracking price. Not sure why the cold votes.
