anything for a smile
With the TCL C2 27C2A gaming monitor, I play fast-paced shooters and open-world games. Thanks to the QD-Mini LED display, I game with bright images and high color contrast. I also enjoy sharp visuals thanks to the 4K resolution. The screen has an unstable monitor stand, but I assemble it easily.
Bright colors Thanks to the QD-Mini LED screen, I enjoy high color contrast while gaming. This display features backlighting with thousands of small LED lights. Because these lights are all individually controlled, I game with deep blacks and bright colors. Additionally, this monitor has a quantum dot layer, making the colors on the screen look vibrant. When I play open-world games, the colors pop off the screen. This makes it feel just like I'm gaming on an OLED screen, without worrying about burn-in during prolonged use.
Dual mode The monitor features dual mode technology. This allows me to switch between 2 different refresh rates and resolutions. For example, I choose the 4K resolution with a 160Hz refresh rate when playing open-world games. I can easily switch to Full HD resolution with a 320Hz refresh rate via the on-screen display. This is handy when playing fast-paced games, such as Fortnite or Call of Duty. This allows me to play all kinds of games on the monitor with the best settings.
Sleek design I install the monitor without using any tools. I simply click the screen onto the stand and get started right away. Unfortunately, the stand is not very stable, as the screen wobbles if I bump into my table. Nevertheless, the screen stays firmly in place while gaming. The display is ergonomically adjustable. I tilt the screen if I am bothered by sunlight or reflections. The monitor also features 2 HDMI 2.1 ports. This allows me to connect a second monitor and a gaming console. Unfortunately, this monitor does not have a cable management system, causing cables to clutter my desk. However, I do quickly swap the cables I connect to the screen.
Job. Gaming monitor expert.

According to our monitor expert
Razor-sharp in 4K: the 4K resolution is 2 times sharper than Quad HD, so you can see a lot of detail.
Smooth during fast-paced games: with a 160Hz refresh rate, you can play fast-moving games smoothly.
Switch between speed and sharpness: thanks to the dual mode technology, you can switch between 2 refresh rates and resolutions.
160Hz via DisplayPort: for the maximum refresh rate of 160Hz, connect the monitor via DisplayPort.
Less immersive visuals: without a curved screen, gameplay feels less immersive than on a curved screen.
