Our take
If you want a bigger 27-inch screen without breaking the bank, this XL2720-B is a good pick. The 144Hz and 1ms response deliver the speed needed for competitive play, and the variety of inputs is handy. But it's a TN panel, so don't expect great colors or viewing angles. The missing stand is a bummer, and at 1080p on 27 inches, pixel density is lower. Still, for $112, it's a fair deal for size and speed.
