Our take
The EL2870U is a budget-friendly 4K monitor that gets the job done for casual gaming. The 1ms response time is nice, but the 60Hz refresh rate limits smoothness in fast games. The TN panel provides decent colors but poor viewing angles. HDR support is basic. For $129.99, it's a great entry into 4K, but serious gamers will want higher refresh rates. FreeSync helps reduce tearing if you have an AMD GPU.
