Cons
Con A maximum refresh rate of 60Hz can be a concern for some
A 60Hz monitor, while sufficient for most people in most cases, can still cause issues with fast-moving objects on screen. It's especially important with things like gaming where the ability to react to events happening on the screen quickly is important.
Con AHVA glow
AHVA glow is the light on the sides or corners of the screen that can reduce some of the peripheral detail.
Con Poor dynamic contrast implementation
Dynamic Contrast is an optional feature meant to increase or decrease the back-lighting depending on scene that is displayed in order to get higher dynamic range. Unfortunately, the implementation tends to slightly overshoot on highs regardless of the settings used.
Con Some color temperature uniformity issues
According to Spyder5Elite tests performed by PC Monitor, BL2711U has color temperature issues that can be seen with the naked. A DeltaE deviation of over 3 can be easily noticed and there are deviation of up to 3.8.
Con No DisplayPort
The monitor does not have a DisplayPort connection, which means some of DisplayPort's advantages over other connection types such as adaptive scaling can't be used.
Con No FreeSync or GSync support
The monitor does not support AMD's FreeSync nor NVIDIA's GSync for adaptive refresh rates without stuttering and screen tearing.
