Specs
Question Ranking
Pros
Pro Reasonably small input lag
Complete input lag time (signal delay and pixel response time) is 11.85ms or ¾ of a frame.
Pro Comes excellently calibrated
Pro Good color temperature uniformity
According to Spyder4Elite tests performed by PC Monitor, P2415Q has good color temperature uniformity. A DeltaE deviation of over 3 can be easily noticed by most people and the highest deviation recorded is 2.5. It's worth noting that the monitor has an uniformity compensation setting that in the same test proved to make things worse with a maximum deviation of 2.9.
Pro Impressive contrast
According to tests performed by PC Monitors, P2415Q set to factory defaults (75% brightness, Standard preset) produces luminance in the range of 0.21 - 237 cd/m² with a contrast ratio of 1129. It provides good brightness and dark blacks. It is also capable of going up to 0.30 - 331 cd/m² with a contrast ratio of 1182 at 100% brightness.
Pro Good quality screen
All aspects of the display itself are good - horizontal viewing angles are nearly 180 degrees, color accuracy is very good out of the box, and color saturation is very good as well thanks to its low black levels.
Pro Integrated speakers are included - no need to buy dedicated speakers
The built-in stereo speakers aren't the highest quality around, but they will get the job done in a pinch. It's nice to have them if you need to move your computer around, as it's less hardware and cords required to carry around.
Pro Fast response time reduces ghosting
Response time on this monitor is 5ms, which is suitable for even high-level gaming. Response time is the time delay between when the monitor receives a signal and when it refreshes the screen to reflect that new signal. While a low refresh rate generally benefits gamers most, its effects can help make your entire system feel just a touch more responsive for any task.
Pro USB pass-through allows for easy access to ports
There are 4 total USB ports on this monitor: 1 is an upstream port (to connect to your computer), and 3 are downstream ports (which you can connect peripherals to, such as a mouse, keyboard, and an external hard drive. This allows you to free up ports on your computer, and also helps keep your cords managed in one spot.
Pro Minimalistic front looks unobtrusive
The front of the display is a single piece of glass, which looks attractive (almost like the front of a very large tablet). Beneath it is a mostly-clear plastic which lets raises the screen above the table or desk, and allows you to see the single photo-frame-like stand on the rear.
Pro Great stand allows for lots of flexibility
The single legged stand can be adjusted from flat to 60 degrees, allowing it to lay flat on a table, nearly upright, or at many angles in-between. The tilt can be lifted or lowered with just one hand by pressing or pulling on the top of the monitor. It also doesn't bounce in regular use.
For added flexibility, there are VESA mounting screw ports on the rear which lets you mount this to a wall or a monitor stand.
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 IPS glow
IPS glow is the light on the sides or corners of the screen that can reduce some of the peripheral detail.
Con Somewhat too grainy texture surface
Con Integrated speakers lack any impact
The speakers built-into the T272HL may be stereo, but they don't offer a great listening experience overall. The bass is severely lacking, and clarity is alright for the odd soundbite but you'll want to add external speakers for movies or other media.
Con Very poor menu UI
There are 6 physical buttons on the right side near the bottom which you have to use to navigate the menu. These feel very dated, especially on a monitor that costs over $500 considering there are better solutions like a joystick or even using the touchscreen itself.
Con Very reflective screen isn't ideal
The screen is very reflective. It is best used in a dark area where there isn't other light to reflect.
