Alienware AW2725QF: Dual-Mode Gaming Monitor Review

The 27-inch 4K IPS display offers both 180Hz and 360Hz refresh rates, but its dual-mode feature has mixed reviews.

The Alienware AW2725QF features a 27-inch 4K IPS panel that supports 180Hz in 4K mode and 360Hz in 1080p mode.
While the dual-mode capability is innovative, it falls short in some scenarios, particularly in fine graphical details and desktop use.
The monitor boasts excellent color accuracy and brightness, with 95% DCI-P3 coverage and HDR600 certification, though it lacks full-array local dimming.
Priced at $599, the monitor is considered expensive for its category, especially given the lack of USB-C connectivity and other premium features.
Reviewers praise its build quality, gaming performance, and versatile stand, but note that the dual-mode feature may not justify the higher price for all users.
