While well-known global brands are engaged in a battle for the best gaming monitor, the Taiwanese company AOPEN has released the most affordable display with interesting technical specifications. The new AOPEN 27SA2bi costs only $180 but offers sought-after features. In particular, it is a 27-inch panel with a quality matrix. It is not suitable for computer gaming, and designers may not be impressed. However, for home (multimedia) and office (text and Internet) use, it is very relevant.

The interest in the AOPEN 27SA2bi monitor is also driven by its official 36-month warranty. The manufacturer emphasizes this, apparently targeting the business segment. The availability of the most demanded interfaces (HDMI and D-Sub) is also a big plus for the new product. Since offices rarely upgrade computers, an analog input will be very handy.
The AOPEN 27SA2bi monitor can be purchased in two color options – white and black. It lacks VESA compatibility and height adjustment for full convenience. But with such a price and the declared technical specifications, it offers more than enough.
