If you don’t know what WQHD stands for, then let us educate you, as it’s short for Wide Quad High Definition, or what most of us know as 2,560x1,440 pixels, aka the same resolution as Apple’s 27-inch iMac. So what are we on about there? Well, so far displays with WQHD resolution would set you back a small fortune, or at least close to $1,000. Now a company called Nixeus is about to change all that with its Vue 27-inch display which is very affordable at $430.

Admittedly if you shop around, you can find some good deals on a select few WQHD displays, but most of them have drawbacks like HP’s ZR2740w which doesn’t feature an OSD for example and it’s still priced north of $600. The other option has been to buy one of many various brands of WQHD displays off eBay from various Korean sellers, with the obvious drawbacks here being lack of support when something goes wrong.

The Nixeus NX-VUE27 is something of a compromise between the Korean displays and one of the more expensive options, as it features the same type of LG S-IPS panel used by the Korean displays and we’d guess that the display is actually made by one of these companies. The upside is that you get a full set of ports which includes dual-link DVI, DisplayPort 1.2, HDMI 1.4 and D-sub, as well as an audio jack as the display sports a set of stereo speakers. It also has an OSD menu, a universal power brick – this is a bit of a poor design considering the size of the display, the power unit should really have been built in – and a height adjustable stand that pivots.

It may not be the most beautifully designed display ever made, but it’s not a bad deal for $430. Sadly, you’ll have to wait until the 21st of this month to get your hands on one and apparently the NX-VUE27 will initially only be on sale through Comp-U-Plus which is an online retailer that we’re not familiar with. Hit up the source for more pictures and details.

Ne znan je li bilo, ali ovo se čini kao pun pogodak nakon svih FHD 27" monitora. Onako čisto kao casual monitor koji će zaminit TN (bar moje).
