Score: 78/100Rankings
The KOORUI GN10 is a 27-inch Mini-LED gaming monitor excelling with a 240 Hz refresh rate and 1 ms response. Its main trade-offs are a Full HD panel on a large screen and limited ergonomics. Ideal for competitive gamers who prioritize speed over resolution.
The AOC e1659Fwu is a 15.6-inch ultra-slim portable monitor powered via a single USB-C cable, offering basic 1366×768 resolution. Its low brightness and limited viewing angles restrict use in bright environments and color-critical work. Ideal for travelers needing a lightweight secondary screen for productivity.

Professional reviewers commend the e1659Fwu for its ultra-slim, lightweight chassis and the convenience of a single USB-3.0 cable that powers and drives the display. They also like the flexible stand and VESA mount, but consistently criticize the modest 1366×768 resolution, limited brightness and narrow viewing angles of the TN panel, noting that it is best suited for basic productivity rather than media-intensive tasks.
Everyday users echo the portability praise, often noting that the monitor fits easily in a laptop bag and works with a simple plug-and-play USB connection. Common themes include appreciation for the portrait mode and flexible stand, while recurring complaints focus on dim brightness in bright environments, low resolution for text-heavy work, and occasional driver hassles on macOS.
Professional reviewers commend the KOORUI 27" models for delivering ultra-smooth 240Hz performance, low input lag, and a wide color gamut at a very competitive price, but they consistently point out the limitations of a Full HD panel on a 27" screen, the absence of Mini LED HDR, and the minimal ergonomic adjustments.
Everyday users praise the monitor's smooth high-refresh gameplay, vivid colors, easy setup, and eye-care features, while common complaints focus on the lack of sharpness at 1080p, occasional backlight bleed, a wobbly stand, and missing built-in speakers.
