Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.

The Amzfast AMZG27F6U is the 27-inch 4K monitor that takes the top spot in this guide at £221.99. The listing describes a Fast IPS panel running 3840 x 2160 at 160Hz, switchable to 1920 x 1080 at 320Hz, with 1ms MPRT, HDR400, 93% DCI-P3 colour and two HDMI 2.1 ports alongside two DisplayPort 1.4 inputs. It carries 4.5 stars from 3,428 ratings, and the supplied star breakdown reads 77 five-star entries against 6 one-star.

The finding here is the reverse of the two listings that rank below it. Nothing in the AMZG27F6U's bullets asks you to believe a bigger number than its own specification table gives: the table's 160Hz matches the bullet's 160Hz, its 1000:1 contrast stands alone with no higher dynamic figure elsewhere on the page to contradict it, and 400 cd/m² appears in both the bullets and the spec block. The one entry that is plainly in the wrong place sits in the technical data rather than in the sales copy — the field labelled Network Connectivity Technology contains the dual-mode refresh list, which has nothing to do with networking. Everything on this page is taken from the Amazon listing for this monitor, not from testing we carried out.

What buyers actually say

Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon

Verified purchase

“This monitor is a miracle in a box. I bought it as I wanted to upgrade my previous monitor, and for the price you pay for this and the value you get is beyond what I expected.I don't know if I can go back to 60hz now with this, its so noticeable and high quality.I highly recommend it for those looking to get into higher refresh rates and were just as curious as I was.”

Questions people ask

Does the Amzfast AMZG27F6U really run at 160Hz in 4K?

Yes, as listed. The bullets describe dual-mode switching between 4K UHD at 160Hz and 1080p at 320Hz, and the specification row for Refresh Rate reads 160.

What contrast ratio does the listing give for this monitor?

The specification table says 1000:1. Unlike some listings in this guide, no bullet for the Amzfast AMZG27F6U claims a higher dynamic contrast figure, so there is nothing on the page for the 1000:1 to contradict.

How many HDMI ports does it have?

The bullets say two HDMI 2.1 FRL ports plus two DisplayPort 1.4 ports, for PC, PS5, Xbox Series X and laptops. The separate Hardware Connectivity field says only "HDMI" (as listed).

What does the Network Connectivity Technology entry mean?

It does not describe networking. That field contains "4K1K Mode: 320Hz for HDMI / DP, UD Mode: 160Hz for HDMI / DP", which is the dual-mode refresh list sitting in the wrong row of the specification block.

Is the stand adjustable?

Yes. The Amzfast listing gives 0-130mm height adjustment, -5° to 22° tilt, ±30° swivel and 90° pivot for portrait mode, plus TÜV-certified low blue light and flicker-free technology.

Does it have built-in speakers?

Yes. The listing describes built-in 4Ω 2W x2 stereo speakers, alongside 400 cd/m² peak brightness and HDR400 for highlights.
