Question Looking to buy 27inch 1080p curved

[SaulBadMan]

Looking to buy a 27inch curved monitor for gaming at 1080p and I don't know which one to choose among these.
Samsung-C27F390FHU
Samsung-C27F396FHU
Samsung-C27F398FWUX
Philips-278E8QJAB
Which one do you think is better?
Secondly do you believe that 27inches is too big for 1080p and it would look bad?

I use 2 - LC27F398FWNXZA monitors on my desk, at the moment. They are 60Hz, and not used for gaming.

I find the size to be advantageous for me. Because of my eyesight, I'm actually considering how 32" monitors would be in my situation.

Overall, though, they are not intrusive, sitting at the back of my desk, but it really is going to depend on your particular installation scenario.

I can't answer your question of which is best, since I don't know your preferences and the probable use case for the monitor you are ultimately going to buy. I will weigh-in, though, on Samsung as a brand for VDTs. I, personally, don't think that you can go with a better brand, for reliability, in the current market--though that may change at some point in the future. No market leader stays at the front of the pack forever.

Best to stay at 24" going with 1080P.

IMO, 27" is too small to warrant a curved monitor (unless you just really like curved monitors), and too big for 1080p.
