Let me start by saying that, while I occasionally buy products from brands like Apple, Huawei, or Xiaomi, I’m not a die-hard fan of any of them. This is just to avoid being immediately labeled by some people [disdain R]. Currently, for my home setup, I’ve opted for the LG 27GP850 (3100 yuan, purchased with a flawless Nano IPS screen).
I bought this monitor on April 24th, using a friend’s address in Shanghai. To make the process smoother, I reached out to JD Plus customer service, who helped arrange delivery and even changed the payment method to cash on delivery for forwarding convenience.
When it comes to purchasing display products, I follow a meticulous approach. The seven key factors I consider are: price, after-sales service, panel quality, tuning precision, parameter specifications, interface options, and color accuracy. After researching for a while, I initially chose the LG 27GS84Q (1979 yuan after national subsidies), but I returned it before it was shipped.
I also considered the LG 27GR93U, but since it’s an older model, I decided against it. Ultimately, I went with the Redmi monitor primarily because it supports high-resolution and high-frame-rate usage, which pairs perfectly with my Mac mini M4 (the aluminum version shown in the picture).
Given my gaming habits—primarily FPS titles like APEX, Overwatch, COD, and Rainbow Six—I have a clear preference for high frame rates. While I don’t typically use my Mac for gaming, higher frame rates provide a smoother visual experience, reducing eye strain and avoiding the dizziness that can come with lower frame rates.
Subjective advantages (these are my personal opinions—take them as they are, no need for agreement, just a sharing of my thoughts):
1. **Price**: I bought this beauty for 2285.65 yuan, and next month, J-fan will send me a rebate of 59.43 yuan, bringing the final cost down to 2226.22 yuan. Plus, if you write a review on JD, you’ll even get a 20-yuan no-threshold coupon! Honestly, I think this price is an absolute steal. Initially, I expected this monitor to cost around 2999 yuan, or about 2600 yuan after national subsidies. At that price point, I might have hesitated, but at 2226 yuan? No question—it’s a must-buy.
2. **Color Accuracy**: The calibration report shows a delta value of 0.536 for my unit. That’s some seriously impressive color precision right out of the box.
3. **Dual-Mode Switching**: This monitor supports seamless switching between 4K 160Hz and 1080p 320Hz modes with just a remote control. While in-game single-button switching isn’t supported yet, it’s still incredibly convenient. (By the way, the 1080p mode in dual-mode does feel slightly blurrier compared to standalone 1080p, but we won’t dive too deep into that here.)
4. **Dolby Vision & Dolby Atmos**: It fully supports both Dolby Vision and game-optimized Dolby audio, making it a dream come true for Xbox, PS5, Nintendo Switch, and Apple TV users. Even though I don’t currently use these features, it’s great to know it’s future-proofed for when I might need them.
5. **Smart Integration**: Comes preloaded with Xiaomi’s TV system, powered by their robust TV chip and featuring Xiao Ai voice assistant. Bonus points for its integration with Mijia smart home devices, allowing you to effortlessly control appliances like air purifiers and smart lamps directly from your screen.
6. **Design & Build Quality**: In terms of aesthetics, materials, and craftsmanship, this monitor absolutely justifies its 2300-yuan price tag. It looks sleek, feels premium, and ticks all the right boxes.
7. **Speakers**: The built-in 2x5W speakers? They’re surprisingly excellent—way better than I expected. Trust me, they deliver clear, rich sound that enhances any viewing experience. I’ll post a demo video soon so you can hear for yourself!
8. **Warranty**: Three years of replacement-only service, plus an additional two-year extended warranty—that’s five full years of peace of mind. Talk about confidence in product quality!
9. **Extra Perks**: NFC screen casting (exclusive to Xiaomi and Redmi phones), an ambient light sensor for automatic brightness adjustment, and zero startup ads. For those who value simplicity and functionality, saying goodbye to intrusive ads is pure bliss. [Goodbye, R-brand annoyance.]
All in all, this monitor checks off nearly every box on my wishlist—and then some.
