Question IPS 2K dilema

[gnshlucas]

Please good people help!
In rush decision I sold my AOC monitor with TN panel 27" because of the horrible viewing angles (small room, I don't own a TV so I use monitor for watching movies etc. from the sofa)
Now I am in a desperate need of a monitor, budget is around 330-350 euros. I got used to 27" size but this time I think IPS panel is the way to go.
So my dilemma revolves around these monitors:

Gigabyte M27Q​

LG 27GR75Q-B​

Lenovo Legion Y27q-30​

Dell G2724D​

Acer Nitro XV272UKV​

Asus TUF Gaming VG27AQ1A​

In my region they go from 300 to 365 euros. Room is facing north so I never have direct sunlight and room itself is pretty dim.

To pick a monitor, there are several criteria to look out for. Budget, panel size and panel type alone wouldn't be enough, since you'd get loads of results. But if you only consider these 3, pick the monitor that has the most pleasing appearance.

But for other criteria (important ones), here's an example of my own, personal criteria, for good monitor to my build (1080p).

Size: 24", 27" or 32" (1080p does well on 24" and 27", 1440p does well with 27" and 32")
Ultrawide: No
Refresh rate: 144 Hz (or up)
Response time: 1ms
contrast ratio: min 3000:1
TN, IPS or VA panel: VA
Color Gamut: never considered that
Curvature: 1500R or less
VESA mount: Yes. Preferably 100mm and 120mm all in one
Input port: Display Port
HDR: I don't mind it
Internal speakers: Don't need them
How many USB ports: Don't use monitor USB ports, so, i don't care
Headphone out: Don't use that either
G-Sync: Neat thing if you have Nvidia GPU but increases monitor price considerably
Price: If it's good, i'm willing to pay premium price
Brand: MSI, Asus

Note: These above are my personal preferences and may not align or even match yours. Take them as a guideline to look for a monitor.

As for you, i suggest that you read the reviews of the 6 you picked out, to find the most suitable one for you. E.g Asus vs Gigabyte in-depth comparison;

I've had a good experience with my m27q watching films, I have the same issue, aslong as your level with the screen viewing angles are generally good and the colours pop. But doesn't have speakers like some other monitors like benq mobius for similar price

Sorry, I never thanked Aecus for replying.
Long story short, hehe, I searched for days, maybe weeks, at one point I had 50+ tabs opened, watched numerous videos from monitor unboxed, techless, etc.
Almost reached the breaking point of going full yolo and buying an OLED display on some shady discount for 800 euros, but I came to my senses.
Then I started to look into some mini LED territory only to find that technology is still too expensive and is not yet so wow.
And through some more research attention came to less known brand of KTC. So I rolled the dice, found excellent deal from Germany for 250 euros with delivery (to Croatia) on model

KTC H27T22​

Nowadays it can be found for 220 euros!
This monitor is pretty solid, run some basic tests and everything is fine, except some minor bleeding area at the top and the stand is kind of wobbly, also viewing angles didn't blow my mind like they promised for an IPS panel.
But considering it is almost 100 euros cheaper from the price (in Croatia) of the direct better known competition is pretty satisfying!
