Wirecutter's pick for anyone who switches between computers. It's a 27-inch 4K screen that arrived extremely color-accurate, with 90W USB-C charging, a KVM that moves your keyboard and mouse automatically, and a handy hotkey puck. But it's only 60Hz, its most accurate mode cuts contrast to about 550:1, and Amazon owner feedback is thin.

Top complaints

What owners love

Good for
  • Two computers on one desk (KVM plus hotkey puck)
  • Designers and photographers who want accurate color out of the box
  • Laptops that need up to 90W over USB-C

Scores (tap for why)

What experts say

  • Wirecutter (NYT): Best for multiple computers in its 27-inch guide (updated 2026-03-16). Its only listed flaw is that the most accurate mode trades away contrast.
