TCL Announces Thunderbolt 274U7A 4K Mini LED Gaming Monitor with Dual Resolution Modes and High Refresh Rate Performance for Competitive Gaming
TCL has been quite active lately and has just announced the Thunderbolt 274U7A display which it labels as a high speed monitor "made to game". It will support the mini LED backlighting system to deliver improved contrast and brightness with 2 distinct presets to switch between depending on the application.
It has a 27 inch Fast IPS panel with a native resolution of 3840x2160 (4K), which can boast of 160Hz native refresh rate, and with a dual mode feature can drop the resolution down to 1080p to boost the refresh rate to an amazing 320Hz for competitive games that demand extreme motion clarity and frame rates. The response time is listed at 1 millisecond GtG, and a peak brightness of 800 nits can be achieved thanks to the Mini LED backlighting system.
To allow for smooth motion, the monitor also supports AMD FreeSync Premium and NVIDIA G-SYNC compatible technologies to eliminate tearing and stuttering. It comes with a color accuracy of 99% sRGB and 98% DCI P3 so it would even be suitable for image editing.
Inputs on the rear panel include two HDMI 2.1 ports, one DisplayPort 1.4 connection and a 3.5 millimeter audio output to plug in a headset. It also has a highly adjustable ergonomic stand that offers tilt, height, swivel, and a pivot for a full 90 degree portrait mode. Alternative mounting options can be made possible by standard 100x100mm VESA mounting hardware.
Listings on Chinese retail sites indicate that the TCL Thunderbolt 274U7A has officially been placed on the domestic supply chain. It is touted as a very competitively priced monitor for performance seekers with an launch price of just $250.
