The ViewSonic VX2758-2KP-MHD is a good 27 inch, 1440p monitor with great peak brightness and wide viewing angles. It delivers a great gaming experience, with low input lag, excellent response time, and support for AMD's FreeSync variable refresh rate technology to reduce screen tearing, but it has very few additional gaming features. Unfortunately, the stand has bad ergonomics with a very limited range of motion, so it might be difficult to place in an ideal viewing position. However, photography professionals should appreciate the excellent coverage of the Adobe RGB color space.

Our Verdict

0.0
Mixed Usage 

The ViewSonic VX2758-2KP-MHD is a good monitor for most uses. It has great peak brightness and impressive viewing angles, so it's a good choice for most offices. It delivers a great gaming experience but doesn't support HDR. This monitor is decent for multimedia or media creation, but it doesn't look as good in a dark room and the stand has a limited range of motion.

Pros
  • Excellent response time and low input lag.
  • Better black uniformity than most monitors.
  • Outstanding color gamut.
Cons
  • Bad ergonomics.
  • Doesn't have extra gaming features.

Office 

The ViewSonic VX2758-2KP-MHD is a good monitor for office use. It has great peak brightness, good reflection handling, outstanding gray uniformity, and wide viewing angles. Unfortunately, the stand has a limited range of motion, so it might be difficult to place it in an ideal viewing position.

0.0
Gaming 

The ViewSonic VX2758-2KP-MHD is a great gaming monitor. It has a high refresh rate with support for FreeSync VRR technology, and it's compatible with newer NVIDIA G-SYNC graphics cards. The response time is excellent and the input lag is incredibly low for a responsive gaming experience. Unfortunately, it doesn't have any extra gaming features like adding crosshairs for FPS games.

0.0
Multimedia 

The ViewSonic VX2758-2KP-MHD is a decent monitor for multimedia. It has a large, high-resolution screen, and wide viewing angles, great for sharing the latest trending videos with your friends. Unfortunately, the stand has a limited range of motion, and like most IPS monitors it has a low contrast ratio, so it doesn't look as good in a dark room.

0.0
Media Creation 

The ViewSonic VX2758-2KP-MHD is a decent monitor for media creation. The large, high-resolution screen is great for multitasking and makes it easier to see more of your project at once. It also has incredibly low input lag for a responsive desktop experience, and wide viewing angles, great for sharing your screen with other people. Unfortunately, the stand has a limited range of motion, which might be an issue for some people.

    Differences Between Sizes And Variants

    We tested the 27 inch ViewSonic VX2758-2KP-MHD, model VS17882, which is part of ViewSonic's VX series of monitors. There are many other monitors in this lineup, but we don't expect our review to be valid for them.

    If someone comes across a different type of panel or if their VX2758-2KP-MHD doesn't correspond to our review, let us know and we'll update the review. Note that some tests such as the gray uniformity may vary between individual units.

    Popular Monitor Comparisons

    The ViewSonic VX2758-2KP-MHD is a good 27 inch monitor with great gaming performance, but with very few additional features. See our recommendations for the best 27 inch monitors, the best 27 inch gaming monitors, and the best office and business monitors.

    Acer Nitro VG271 Pbmiipx

    Track

    The Acer Nitro VG271 Pbmiipx and the ViewSonic VX2758-2KP-MHD are very similar overall. The ViewSonic has a higher native resolution, making it a better choice for multitasking or gaming, and the unit we tested has better black uniformity. The Acer VG271, on the other hand, supports HDR, although this doesn't add much, and the stand has a slightly better tilt range.

    Samsung Odyssey G55T C27G55T

    Track

    The ViewSonic VX2758-2KP-MHD is much better than the Samsung Odyssey G55T C27G55T. The ViewSonic has a much faster response time, higher peak brightness, and its IPS panel provides much wider viewing angles. However, the Samsung is better suited for dark rooms due to its good contrast ratio, and it's available in two sizes, 27 and 32 inches.

    LG 27GL850-B/27GL83A-B

    Track

    The LG 27GL850-B/27GL83A-B is better than the ViewSonic VX2758-2KP-MHD. The LG has much better ergonomics, motion handling, and color accuracy, but the ViewSonic has a much better contrast ratio and black uniformity. The LG supports HDR and has a much better gradient performance, but doesn't have a black frame insertion feature like the ViewSonic.

    Dell S2719DGF

    Track

    The ViewSonic VX2758-2KP-MHD is better than the Dell S2719DGF. The ViewSonic's IPS panel has much wider viewing angles, a higher contrast ratio, and significantly better black uniformity. However, the Dell is more adjustable due to its excellent ergonomics, its build quality is much better, and it has a slightly higher refresh rate.

    How We Test Monitors
    How We Test Monitors

    We buy and test more than 30 monitors each year, all of which we purchase ourselves, without cherry-picked units or samples. We put a lot into each unbiased, straight-to-the-point review, and there's a whole process from purchasing to publishing, involving multiple teams and people. We do more than just use the monitor for a week; we use specialized, custom tools to measure various aspects and deliver objective, data-driven results. We also consider multiple factors before making any recommendations, including the monitor's cost, its performance compared to the competition, and whether it's easy to find.
