Hey what's up guys welcome back to the channel today we are going to take a look at the AOC24G2. By the way props to AOC for keeping the name short and simple cause full like store stupid long names that take 10 hours to pronounce. Anyway coming to the point I feel like there has never really been a solid sub to $100 monitor. It sticks all the boxes and feels like a complete package until AOC released this bad boy. We are going to be taking a look at all aspects of this monitor so be sure to stay till the end. Ok firstly let us talk about the design and build quality. The build quality is solid. Even the all the parts are plastic, they feel durable and heavy. The stand feels solid and does not have any wobbly or shaky parts to it. I mean you are getting what you are paying for. I don't really have any complaints over here. Coming to the design aspect AOC has made some pretty interesting choices. Firstly the display is bezel-less and a lot of its competition overlooks this feature and makes the monitor look more 2020ish and less like that old computer at your grandma's place. There is a little chin showing the AOC logo too at the bottom. Apart from the red accents on the chin and on the stand the design itself is pretty low key and minimal. The stand has this reshape thing going for it. It doesn't really look bad but it does take some space on the table. At the back of this monitor there is a red strip on the stand and two reshape red accents. I don't really know what to call it. I mean it's in the back of this device so it shouldn't really bother you that much. There are 4 ways of adjusting the monitor. You can adjust its height, you can swivel it, tilt it and rotate it from landscape to portrait and vice versa. And of course the monitor also supports a visa mount. For IO we are looking at a decent selection. We have 2 HDMI ports, 1 display port and a VGA port for those people living under a rock. There is also an audio port for connecting headphones or speakers. There are no speakers on the monitor but the other version of this monitor, the AOC 24G to U does have it. I seemingly just cannot find that model anywhere on the US market. I think that model is vegan specific but I'm not really sure. I don't complain that this monitor does not have any speakers because built in speakers are bound to be pretty trash anyway but it would be nice if they included this feature for times that we don't have speakers instead of maybe 2 separate models. Now before we proceed with the video we are announcing a giveaway on this channel. We are giving away an iPad Air 2 subscriber who is part of the channel.

Ok now let's come to the main part of this device, the display. The monitor has a 24 inch 1920 by 1080p display. It's IPS and of course supports 144Hz refresh rate. It also has a 1 millisecond response time and supports both AMD FreeSync and Nvidia G-Sync. Overall this display is simply excellent. It has great color variety. The monitor comprehensively covers the SRGB color space with a fair amount of extension It had a 92% DC IP3 color space coverage and the monitor also covered 87% of the Adobe RGB color space. This color gamut gives the monitor the potential to output all shades within the SRGB color space with the next dose of vibrancy and saturation. It also has very good black levels for an IPS panel and I have no backlight bleeding in my monitor. The 24 inch panel is the perfect size to fly to ratio for a 1080p monitor. This monitor does not get very bright, maxing out at about 315nits when calibrated but it is more than enough for the average user. The screen has a matte finish so reflections won't be a problem. This monitor supports low frame rate compensation. This basically means that you won't notice any screen tearing or smearing when a game runs in low frame rates. Combined with the support of AMD FreeSync or Nvidia G-Sync this allows for a smooth gaming experience across all frame rates. We have 3 overdrive modes in this monitor, low medium and high. With the overdrive switched off, you still get a decent response time at 8.31ms. With the overdrive mode set to medium, you get a pretty good response time of 6.5ms. However, if you want to get the best experience out of this monitor, I would highly recommend choosing the strong overdrive mode. There's an excellent response time at 4.36ms and there's little to no smearing or overshoot when in this mode. There might be some coasting or overshoot when your FPS dips below 60Hz and during that time you can change your overdrive to medium for optimal performance. Being an IPS monitor, it has pretty good viewing angles especially compared to the VA and TN monitors in this price range. The many buttons are in the bottom of the monitor in the chin. It's a little bit different to navigate across the menus compared to other monitors but you will get used to it very quickly. With all that being said, I think the best part about this monitor is absolutely its price. Being less than $200, it's simply unbeatable by the competitors. Usually, IPS monitors with 144Hz refresh rate are a good 75-$200 more than the TN or VA counterpast and the fact that AOC is able to deliver such performance and quality at this price range just undeniably makes it a really good deal. Overall, I think this is a great monitor for anyone who's looking out for gaming monitors, especially in the budget category.
