TCL 27C2A Pro Review

The TCL 27C2A Pro is a Mini LED gaming monitor geared to compete with some of the hottest 4K gaming monitors on the market. It offers a 4K panel with quantum dot pixels and a dual-mode that can trade off resolution for speed, much like some other high-end monitors. The TCL 27C2A Pro promises a lot, but its $999 price tag raises a lot of questions.

The TCL 27C2A Pro is a fairly tame monitor with a white-and-black color scheme that seems to chase after either Alienware’s or Samsung’s approval. Other than some RGB lighting, it’s not terribly gaudy, but it’s not incredibly pretty either.

The display squeezes in a 27-inch 4K panel that runs at 160Hz in its native mode or 320Hz when swapped down to 1080p. This kind of dual-mode technology has been popping up on more and more 4K monitors, and it’s great to see as it gives them more flexibility to serve as platforms for AAA titles with gorgeous graphical assets as well as competitive esports games where speed is almost all that matters. The panel features quantum dots and Mini LED backlighting with over 2,300 dimming zones (2,304 to be exact). That gives it a rated 98% coverage of the DCI-P3 color space and rated peak brightness of 2,000 nits — more on that later.

The TCL 27C2A Pro might have a $999 MSRP, but little about the monitor’s constructions feels like it ever should have. It builds on the earlier 27C2A non-pro model, which was cheaper and had fewer dimming zones and a lower peak brightness.
