AOC has announced the AGON CG27G2S/BK, a 27-inch gaming monitor based around a VA panel. According to AOC, the AGON CG27G2S/BK has a 1500R curvature, as well as an antiglare finish to reduce reflections when gaming.

Moreover, AOC states the monitor has a 3,000:1 contrast ratio, 90% DCI-P3 colour space coverage and 250 nits peak brightness. Also, the AGON CG27G2S/BK boasts Flicker-Free technology and a Low Blue Light mode to mitigate eye strain.

Furthermore, AOC has equipped the AGON CG27G2S/BK with a pair of HDMI 2.0 ports, a single DisplayPort 1.4 connection and a 3.5 mm jack but no speakers. On top of that, the monitor has an adjustable stand that can be tilted, swivelled or its height changed by up to 130 mm.
