KTC has introduced a new gaming monitor for the Chinese market with the launch of the Prism Q27 Plus. The new display is now listed on JD.com with a retail price of 999 yuan (around $139 USD), offering a high refresh rate, 2K resolution, and gaming-focused features at an affordable price.
The KTC Prism Q27 Plus features a 27-inch Fast IPS panel with a 2560 × 1440 (2K) resolution. The display supports an overclocked refresh rate of up to 275Hz, making it suitable for competitive gaming where smoother motion can improve the overall experience. It also delivers a 0.5ms DAC Gray-to-Gray (GtG) response time, helping reduce motion blur during fast-moving scenes.
For image quality, the monitor offers 400 nits peak brightness and a 1000:1 contrast ratio. The panel supports 10-bit color depth (8-bit + FRC), allowing it to display a wider color range and smoother color transitions for both gaming and multimedia content.
Beyond the display specifications, KTC has added several convenience features to improve everyday usability. The monitor includes a concealed headphone hanger integrated into the design, allowing users to store their headset neatly when it is not in use. It also features an infrared sensor-controlled night light positioned at the bottom of the monitor, providing subtle desktop illumination in low-light environments.
Audio is handled by dual 2W built-in speakers, making the monitor ready for casual gaming, videos, and meetings without requiring external speakers. Users who prefer dedicated audio equipment can connect headphones or speakers through the integrated 3.5mm audio jack.
Connectivity is another strong point of the Prism Q27 Plus. The monitor includes two HDMI ports and two DisplayPort inputs, allowing multiple devices such as gaming PCs, laptops, and consoles to remain connected at the same time.
