  • My mom's panic attack

  Super much better than my old TV, the reaction time was immediately noticeable, I gave the old TV to my parents, they were shocked and had a bit of panic.

  Excellent monitor for gaming and TV

  • Screen can be adjusted sideways and up/down without tools
  • Image settings and video source can be adjusted without remote control
  • With 144Hz and 24 inches, this monitor is recommended for gaming
  • Stand is stronger and easier to assemble than expected
  • Stand takes up more desk space than some other models
  • No AV multi output ports for older consoles such as wii/gamecube (hdmi converters do exist)
  • Stand construction makes the monitor a bit awkward to lift
  • Power cable could have been a little longer (is a separate component/replaceable)

  I use this monitor myself for gaming and watching series. Besides the good size/image quality, the difference between 60Hz and +120Hz makes a world of difference in games like 3D shooters. Note that with older HDMI ports you may get 120Hz instead of 144Hz.
  
  The screen is easy to assemble and adjust in all directions. You usually only need a screwdriver for the bottom of the stand. However, do not screw the bottom too tight, otherwise the monitor can no longer be adjusted sideways.
  
  Adjusting settings such as contrast, brightness and video source are done with the buttons at the bottom right of the monitor. Navigating through the menus with only 4 buttons may take some getting used to, but I found this out fairly quickly without instructions. After a short time this feels very intuitive.
  
  As for retro gaming (older consoles without HDMI), the monitor can only be used with corresponding (possibly expensive) adapters. However, with 2 HDMI ports, your desktop/laptop and console can be connected at the same time.
  
  Finally, this monitor is only 1080p (full HD). This is enough for most people, but AOC also has comparable curved/1440p models available. As far as I know, there are no full-fledged 4K variants of Coolblue.
  
  Summarized:
  This line of AOC monitors is very suitable for most forms of gaming and video entertainment with excellent ease of use and enough variants within the line. The negative points mentioned are not a genuine hindrance to the quality of the product. Most negatives such as retro gaming or cable length will be relevant to few people and can be remedied with the right replacement components.
  Highly recommended, especially for this price range!

  The price-quality ratio of this screen is more than great

  • Very nice colors
  • Ergonomic
  • Excellent price / quality ratio
  • Freesync / G-sync compatible
  • 144Hz
  • Control buttons at the bottom are clumsy
  • Viewing angle is disappointing

  The AOC 24G2u already gives a very nice color reproduction out of the box, I recommend adjusting it a bit (dimming) if, for example, you plan to game in the dark. Control buttons at the bottom are very clumsy, luckily you can download the software from AOC itself to calibrate your screen without using it.
  Screen itself is aesthetically okay, nice edge. Foot itself has turned out somewhat large and clumsy. You can adjust the screen both in height and tilt, which immediately gives enormous ergonomic added value. Viewing angle of the screen is disappointing, colors even differ a bit when you look at it from the side, so make sure you are right in front of the screen. Given the screen is easily adjustable, this can certainly be arranged. Furthermore, the 144hz is certainly an added value for faster and competitive games. The response speed of the screen is also simply brilliant for an IPS panel.
  In summary: The price-quality ratio of this screen is more than excellent. Recommended.

  too good for the money

  • Included DisplayPort
  • Nice colours
  • 1ms
  • 144hz
  • Cheap
  • OSD (buttons instead of Joystick)
  • Red accents (must match your setup)

  Nice monitor for a very good price. 1ms really feels like 1ms. Slightly blurry in my opinion, but after a few hours you're used to it (maybe the switch to 144hz). Perfect colors and decent sharpness. Solidly built so no wobbling while gaming. Review is being typed on it!

  Great screen for a great price.

  • design
  • Price
  • fierceness

  Very nice display that is 144. With the right mounting material, it can also be hung on a wall bracket so that when I need the table I can push the monitor away.

  Top monitor for a top price

  • Very good screen
  • Best in its price range

  Absolute must-have for the user who can't pay 1000 euros for a screen.

  Best monitor in this category

  • fantastic features like response time and refresh rate not only great for gaming, but also for snappy work
  • height and other adjustments cover all my ergonomic needs
  • thin bezels make an immersive experience
  • excellent bang for the buck
  • kind of hard to access the adjustment buttons
  • speaker quality is not great, nor loud
  • better building materials could have been used

  I really enjoy the features it offers. I was looking for great response times and high refresh rate, and that is exactly what I got. I don't mind the poor speaker quality, but if that is important for you I wouldn't recommend this monitor. Still I think it is a great product and I'm overall happy with my purchase

  Price/Performance King

  • Great colors
  • Virtually no ghosting or inverse ghosting
  • Good response times for budget IPS 144Hz (~4ms)
  • USB Hub in monitor
  • No power brick
  • Bad viewing angles for IPS, but better than TN/VA
  • Supplied DP and HDMI cables are very short (1m)
  • Menu difficult to use due to bad buttons at the bottom

  Some minor drawbacks, but a fantastic monitor for such a low price.

  Fantastic product for a great price

  • beautiful image
  • sleek design
  • Value for money
  • HDMI & DP cable included
  • Control menu options

  I was looking for a display with a fast response and high refresh rate, but also think beautiful colors are important. This screen has all that, for a small price too!
