Generally speaking, they cost way less than they used to, but it’s still pricey! However, enough time has passed since OLED gaming monitors crashed onto the PC gaming scene in a big way last year, and now lesser-known manufacturers are putting out some affordable alternatives that cost hundreds less.The brand Innocn has its own 27-inch 1440p OLED monitor on Amazon, and it’s selling for $429.99 (was $549.99), and in terms of specs, there’s nothing out of place from those early 2023 OLED models. In fact, it’s using one of LG’s own WOLED panels that has a 240 Hz refresh rate and a near-instant 0.03-millisecond response time.Innocn 27-inch OLED gaming monitor$430$55022% off$430$430 at AmazonYou’re not wrong to be a little skeptical of a brand like Innocn. I haven’t personally tried its products, but critics who I trust have tried them, such as John Linneman of the graphics-obsessed Digital Foundry. He reviewed a few of its models (a 48-inch OLED monitor and its portable 15.6-inch OLED) with favorable results.In terms of connectivity, this 27-inch monitor sports a single HDMI 2.0 support so your PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X console can let loose at up to 120 Hz at 1440p resolution (its dual DisplayPort ports can tap the full 240 Hz refresh rate offered by the monitor). It also boasts a USB-C port for video and charging at up to 65 W. You’ll get all the cables necessary to connect your gadgets in the box.Innocn’s monitor includes a height-adjustable stand, although it supports VESA monitor arms if you’d rather have it hover of your desk. One neat thing about the stand’s base is that it has a 15 W wireless charging pad integrated, so you can lay down your phone or wireless earbuds to charge them up. According to the FAQ on its website, the monitor includes a 1-year warranty.
