Samsung S27D390H Pro Reviews

Choosing between the Acer K272HUL and Samsung S27D390H based on image quality alone would be almost impossible. Fortunately, Samsung’s option has a trump card that makes your decision easier: the price. Acer’s K272HUL, which was $449 when we reviewed it, can now be had for $399. That’s a great price for a 27-inch monitor with excellent color accuracy, but the S27D390H undercuts it by more than a hundred dollars. That’s a huge gap, and it instantly makes Samsung’s option more attractive. You pay for the Samsung’s low price in other ways, however. There are just two inputs, one of which is VGA. The stand is flimsy, and doesn’t even tilt. Plus, the monitor isn’t VESA compatible. These issues are not insignificant, as they make the S27D390H more difficult to use comfortably, and less versatile overall. Some users will pass on this monitor because of these flaws, and we can’t fault them for doing so. If all you care about is bang for your buck, Samsung’s cut-rate 1080p monitor is an excellent pick. You’ll be hard pressed to find a display that’s more accurate, and more vibrant for the same price.
