INNOCN 27" Mini LED 4K Monitor, HDR1000, 99% DCI-P3 99% sRGB, 1.07B Colors, IPS, USB-C, HDMI 2.1, DP, Speakers, Auto Brightness, Height Adjustable, Mountable, White

Product arrived promptly. I read all the reviews here and more. Was concerned about time to switch from SDR to HDR and some people having the monitor switch on and off frequently. I have never had an HDR monitor. I had a 10yo Dell 27in. Setup is not clear. It is not plug and play. Much of this is Windows 11 fault. It sets up auto-HDR automatically. Turns out there is a bug in Windows and the monitor is constantly trying to switch. Not mine alone but well documented and occurs with other HDR displays. Key is turn off auto-HDR and use Win-Alt-B if you want HDR. HDR with standard SDR content is TERRIBLE. I leave HDR off most of the time. With this, the SDR picture is amazing. Very very happy with quality and no more off and on. The HDR is great but I don't have much HDR content. Not much of a gamer. Brightness is very high and detail excellent with white whites even on Standard mode. No real need for tweaking.

This is a great monitor, especially at the current discounted rate. You can't beat the price for a professionally calibrated monitor that allows you to set it to sRGB, Adobe, or DCI-P3 mode. It also has a built-in light sensor that can adjust the brightness of the monitor. It works for me, but some people don't like it, and the feature can be disabled through the on-screen display (OSD). One caveat: the screen comes with local dimming enabled. This works great if you use the monitor for media consumption in HDR mode. But if you plan to use the monitor for office work, local dimming makes dark mode horrible (whites are gray and colors are washed out, particularly skin tones). You can turn local dimming off in the OSD > Game Settings but ONLY if the monitor is set to STANDARD under the OSD Professional menu. If you set the monitor to any other mode (sRGB, Adobe, DCI-P3), the local dimming option will be grayed out. So, if you use the monitor for SDR (standard dynamic range, aka normal office work), set the monitor to STANDARd, turn local dimming off (it's ON by default), then switch the mode to sRGB for more accurate colors, and you are done. If you use this monitor for movies and games, you can turn HDR on (which should turn on local dimming), then Windows 11 or macOS Sonoma will also have an HDR mode in their settings > display, and you can use HDR, which looks fantastic on this monitor. But I use it for productivity, so it's SDR with local dimming off. Blacks are plenty deep for my needs even in this mode. Oh, the monitor comes with USB-C (65W of power delivery), but no USB hub ports, so that's the minor inconvenience. Also, the LED lights on the back of the monitor are off. I don't see an option in the OSD to turn them on, but that doesn't bother me at all.

There are a few notes that need to be mentioned when getting into colour accurate monitors and such. 1) It WILL look more 'warm' / 'yellow'. This is because most displays that do not care much for accuracy crank the blue light to 11. Blue light is more energetic and more energy efficient. When acclimatizing to a calibrated display, it will throw you off and think something is broken. It takes time to adjust. 2) Colour accuracy =/= bright/vibrant. Especially in AdobeRGB space and the such (print). Ambient light should be controlled as much as possible anyhow (turn off that unicorn-vomit RGB strip, close the windows). Your eyes love to adapt to the environment, if you keep changing lighting situations, your results will be wonky and the first thing to blame is a monitor. Onto the review: I used a Spyder X Elite to do some calibrations and test a couple of the inbuilt settings modes. I have attached photos of the results. All tests were with Gamma @ 2.2 & 'C.T settings' set to 'Natural'. In the charts, the RED TRIANGLE is INNOCIN's built in 'DCI-P3' monitor setting. in the charts, the BLUE TRIANGLE is INNOCIN's built in 'STANDARD' monitor setting. GREEN = sRGB space ORANGE = NTSC space PURPLE = AdobeRGB space BLUE = DCI-P3 space So putting the monitor into 'STANDARD' mode has colour accuracy of 100% sRGB, 99% NTSC, 100% AdobeRGB & 97% DCI-P3 respectively. Putting the monitor into 'DCI-P3' mode has colour accuracy of 100% sRGB, 87% NTSC, 89% AdobeRGB & 97% DCI-P3 respectively. I am not totally sure what to make of that result. It would appear that there is no benifit to using the 'sRGB' , 'AdobeRGB' or 'DCI-P3' modes. Each setting only matches the 'STANDARD' mode and becomes very inaccurate in the other modes. Whereas using 'STANDARD' nets all the positives of each colour space. DCI-P3 at best is 97% in either mode. Unfortunate I was not able to reach their claimed 99%, as that is the space I use most. I've also attached some scans of their included 'from factory calibration' sheet. It would appear that it is accurate, atleast in my case. However they only test for sRGB & AdobeRGB. Would be nice to have DCI-P3 but, oh well. KEY TAKEAWAYS: This is a 200-300$ monitor (prime day sales baby!). This is not a Flanders Scientific or Sony grading monitor. I think it is only 8bit+FRC anyhow. It is not inky black like OLED. It is not eye-searing HDR 10-billion or whatever. I suspect this is indeed mini_LED but 'B-Stock'. Like, panels that have some defects and are not able to push the full brightness or whatever. It is still pretty darn bright, and for me, colour accurate. Upgrading from a 34 Ultra-Wide to a 27 does feel a bit claustrophobic. Maybe it will change with time, who knows. I am testing at the moment on HDMI, waiting for some Display-Port cables to come in. Supposedly 80gb/s & whatnot. So if I am able to get HDR working with the new cables, or if the DCI-P3 accuracy increases, I will update accordingly. TLDR: Colour accurate, just keep it in 'STANDARD' mode. Pretty bright, but not sure about their 'HDR1000' claims. Great value item for content creation & theoretically, consumption. The white plastics are definitely a fashion statement! The casing does feel 'fantastic-plastic', but the base is tool-less and sturdy, the spring lock VESA is clever and nice. The tilt, rotate mechanism works well and does not feel cheap. Overall, pretty pleased.

GREAT MONITOR !!! GREAT COMPANY AND SERVICE ! (had some issues getting 60HZ@4K and found out it was my graphics card issue, I put new card and got the full 4K 60HZ ! great email support ! they answer very fast !)

It looks similar to an OLED monitor, it not glossy as described,the Colors are amazingly beautiful. Accurate Colors similar to my IMAC, Power Cable could be a bit more thicker, Easy to setup, over quality 9 out of 10. Audio from the speakers better than most monitors but not as good as the IMAC.

This monitor has great colours but it's really bulky, has poor viewing angles, and a matte screen instead of glossy. Coming from a 5K iMac, the Innocn was just too hard to look at but if you've only ever used PC monitors, it'll probably be an upgrade.

With default settings, images had clipping in highlights (anything 80%+), which is unacceptable for a monitor sold on color accuracy and including a calibration chart. I needed to add custom profile with R, G, and B all set to -26. Slow response to controls when a lacking signal, makes switching sources mildly annoying. Loss/gain of signal on an input not currently being used can blank the screen temporarily, ie: PC goes to sleep and my Mac goes black for a second or two... why? Picture in Picture mode doesn't always negotiate signal, giving a black box... have to turn PIP off and on again and hope it works. Sound quality is very poor... I'm using my PC laptop and Mac mini built-in speakers instead. In HDR modes you lose the any ability to change image settings. Despite all that, the monitor seems okay. It's difficult to recommend, but good enough I'm not in a rush to replace it.
