I don’t know if you have noticed this year. The monitor market is really getting more and more popular, and the prices have been repeatedly lowered. Some 4K monitors have even dropped to less than 1,000 yuan, which is unimaginable in the past few years. I remember someone asked me last year why smart TVs are so cheap with the same monitor panels, and the price of monitors has always been so strong. To be honest, I also thought that using TVs and monitors to compare them at that time was just two types of products, and there is no comparison. The price reduction of TVs has nothing to do with monitors. Until this year, I found out that I was wrong. As the price of monitor panels hits a new low, the computer monitor industry is also in a price war. Just like the mini-led monitor that was just popular by Apple in the past few years, it was a joint innovative M2U monitor that was pushed to the 3K price from a price of over 10,000 yuan. This is indeed good news for ordinary consumers, especially 4K monitors like this. The prices were generally higher in the past few years. Many people said they would wait for the 27-inch 4K monitor to drop to 1,000 yuan! I once thought it was completely impossible.
result, was slapped in the face. recently jointly launched a 27-inch 4K professional art monitor with the price reaching the 1,000 yuan level. It is the INNOCN 27C1U-D that was just released recently. The monitor is also an IPS panel and is equipped with the popular Type-C first-line connection function. Some people may say that 4K monitors were sold at 1,000 yuan last year, which is indeed true, but when you buy a monitor, you must look at what panel is. For example, VA panel and TN panels have always been very low, and the display effect is far less than that of IPS panel monitors, so the price of monitors of this type of panel has never been high. A company like United Innovation started out as a professional art monitor, and its display effect has always been very good. So if this kind of art monitor can be sold at a price of more than 1,000, it is really a historically low price at present. So, I also bought this 27C1U-D for the first time and experienced it for half a month. Let me talk to you about how this monitor is like?
First of all, let me state that I bought this monitor at my own expense. I planned to use it in a small bedroom for mini hosting. I mainly like its Type-C first-line connection port. When I get home from get off work, I can directly connect it to a laptop or a mobile phone. This way, the office will be very convenient. Now, monitors with first-line connection ports on the market are generally slightly more expensive. This joint innovative 7C1U-D priced only over 1,300 yuan, which is very suitable. It is skipped out after unboxing, and it is very simple to install. The bracket is a lift-type bracket. The installation is a snap-type bracket and the screws are screwed.
This monitor uses a built-in power supply solution, and this price is indeed rare. So you can use it by connecting an external power cord. The large power adapter will be cancelled, making it more convenient to use. There is an HDMI interface, a DP interface, an audio interface and a Type-C interface on the back side of the monitor. The trapezoidal power supply interface on the far right is used to connect to the external power cord.
This Type-C interface can be used to connect external notebooks on the first line, and can also provide up to 65W of power to the notebook through the C port. In this way, today's laptops generally support PD charging. If they are connected to the notebook via the first line, the notebook does not need to be connected to the additional power supply. When transmitting video signals, they can also provide 65W of power to the notebook through the monitor. The desktop is simple and the desktop becomes very refreshing, which is very suitable for users who use the laptop main machine to connect the external monitor to expand the large screen.
Of course, in addition to external laptops through the C port and daily use, you can also connect to mobile phones, mini computers, and other devices through the Type-C interface.
In addition, this monitor also has two 3W speaker units built-in. If the sound quality is not high, there is actually no need to connect the speakers separately on the desktop. In fact, the two 3W speaker units can meet the needs of most ordinary users for movies, games, and TV shows. Therefore, I think this hardware configuration is very necessary.
Let’s talk about the key points. The front of the joint innovation 7C1U-D is a 27-inch screen with a screen resolution of 3840*2160, with a standard 4K resolution. The front of the monitor adopts the now-famous three-narrow border design scheme. The overall visual experience is very good. After upgrading from the previous 27-inch 2K resolution monitor to this 27-inch 4K monitor, the biggest feeling I gave was that the entire display effect was really improved significantly, and the details and fonts of the entire picture became very delicate.
joint innovation 7C1U-D As a professional art monitor, has 1.07 billion color displays, up to 100% of the sRGB color gamut and 98% of the DCI-P3 color gamut, Adobe RGB 98%. The color gamut value is actually a hard-core indicator for exploring the display effect of a monitor. Such a wide color gamut coverage is very helpful for professional creation needs such as daily design drawing, video editing, 3D modeling, etc.
Let’s take a look at a set of 4K high-definition landscape pictures I collected. From the display effect of the picture, we can see that with the blessing of the high color gamut, as well as the 10-bit color depth, and 1.07 billion rich colors, this screen can also be at ease when displaying some brightly colored pictures, and better restore the real landscape pictures. The blue sky, clear water and green mountains in the scenery look lifelike.
screen uses an IPS hard screen, and the viewing angle reaches an ultra-wide viewing angle of 178°. In addition, the monitor also has an important parameter called color accuracy. Each INNOCN 27C1U-D monitor will manually calibrate colors one by one when it leaves the factory to ensure that the color accuracy of each monitor △E <>
This color accuracy level is very important for some professional photographers and video creators, because in the later stage, whether it is processing photos or editing videos, high color accuracy monitors can also help them obtain more accurate colors and reduce errors. Usually, ΔE is less than 2, which is a very excellent professional art monitor, which can fully meet the daily use of professional-level user groups.
In addition, United Innovation 27C1U-D also adopts brightness color temperature uniform technology, with brightness color temperature (BU&CU) ≥93%, ensuring the consistency of the brightness and color temperature uniformity of the screen, and better ensuring the accuracy of color.
At the same time, joint innovation 27C1U-D also supports HDR400, further enhancing the display effect of the display in terms of light and dark details. It is especially suitable for turning on HDR when watching some blockbusters to get a more stunning display screen effect.
Joint Innovation 27C1U-D also supports six-axis color calibration. Traditional monitors are generally adjusted in three colors, and the color loss can be greatly reduced through six-axis color correction. For a professional art monitor, such a function is a very good function for professional high-level color users.
In the OBD settings of the Joint Innovation 27C1U-D display, in addition to the conventional picture brightness adjustment, HDR switch, and volume adjustment, we can adjust the PIP/PBP mode, which is the split-screen function of the Joint Innovation display.
PIP/PBP (Picture in Picture/Double Picture) What does function mean? Simply put, a monitor can display two signals at the same time. After turning on the PIP/PBP (Picture in Picture/Dual Screen) function, we can connect to two devices at the same time, such as connecting to a host and a laptop at the same time for use. Turn on the PIP picture-in-picture function or the PBP dual-screen function, and the screen can display two sets of different signal sources at the same time.
joint innovation 27C1U-D's peak brightness is 400 nits. This brightness can be displayed clearly even if used in environments with very strong daylight. At the same time, in order to bring better eye protection, United Innovation has specially equipped this monitor with DC dimming and German Rhine Low Blu-ray certification. After turning on blue light , the damage to the eyes of blue light can be better reduced. It is suitable for teenagers to use. Long-term viewing of the monitor will not cause damage to vision.
Next, let’s take a look at a professional 4K TV resolution test picture, and a 4K TV color performance and visual angle test picture. It can be clearly seen from the demonstration image that the text and pictures of the entire 4K test image can be clearly identified, and there is no color cast, and the entire color is very bright. In the visual angle picture, we observed that by changing the observation angle of the color ball picture of the right half, the entire sphere does not experience color changes or uneven transitions. Through the naked eye, the overall performance of this K monitor is very outstanding.
This combined innovative monitor is also a monitor that can be adjusted by lifting and lowering angle, supporting 120cm lifting, vertical rotation 90°, left and right rotation 45°, up and down -5°+20°.
However, when the monitor is rotated vertically 90° and used as a vertical screen, you need to manually adjust the display direction in the OBD menu. This monitor does not support gravity sensing adjustment, which is a small flaw.
Overall experience made me feel the performance of this 27-inch 4K monitor priced only more than 1,300. From the beginning, I was worried that the display effect would shrink if the price was too low. Until now, I can even use it as a professional art monitor. You should know that art-level monitors are generally the best-effect type of monitor on the market.
and 27-inch 4K monitors use IPS panels and have monitors with such a wide color gamut. Although the monitors with the same configuration on the market are also priced in the inverter, the price is still at the price of 3k. The 27C1U-D monitor launched by this joint innovation can be regarded as a 4K monitor that is popular with Volkswagen.
I think if you have high requirements for the color of the monitor and plan to upgrade a 4K professional-grade art monitor, there is no need to spend a high price to buy a so-called first-line Dell and other monitors, this monitor can fully meet daily usage needs.
