The AOC I2757FH is what you don't expect a monitor to look like. In fact, it looks more like a high-end television. But this is actually a 27-inch LED monitor and not a 55-inch LED television.
The design is very unique with a borderless LED IPS panel being held in place a by a brushed aluminum tray. The tray in turn is perched on another aluminum base. On the tray are touch buttons for power, menu and other adjustments. You have two HDMI ports, but the lack of a USB port is a bit of a headache.
The IPS panel gives better viewing angles than most other monitors. You can set it for different modes like video and gaming or tweak the setting minutely to just the way you want it. We mirrored a Windows 8 laptop to see the FullHD screen quality and were quite impressed. Playing a FullHD movie was also impressive. The panel comes with speakers, but they are not really up to the mark. The redeeming factor here is that you have a 3.5mm jack.
For the extra real estate, spectacular design and good picture quality you have to pay a bit of a premium though. This model is priced a bit more than other simple design monitors.
