Starting things off with the design, it's essentially the same chassis as the 272URX we reviewed earlier this year, which isn't really a surprise given both are 27in QD-OLED panels. It's overall a fairly inoffensive, mostly black aesthetic – I just wish there was a bit more metal used, as it feels just a bit plasticky for my tastes. I do appreciate the square-ish foot though, as I much prefer this compared to some of the larger v-shaped feet we typically see.
The stand does offer the full array of ergonomic adjustments too, and that includes up to 110mm of height adjustment, 30 degrees of swivel both left and right, tilt from -5 to +20 degrees, along with full 90 degree pivot functionality if you want to use the screen vertically. Third party VESA 100×100 mounts are also supported.
As for display inputs, we find a relatively compact selection, with one DisplayPort 1.4, two HDMI 2.1, a Type-C port that supports DPAlt mode and 15W power delivery, and then a headphone jack. If you're not familiar with MSI's product naming scheme, this is a MAG monitor, which is effectively their more affordable series, below MPG and MEG – which would explain the lack of a Type-A USB hub, while KVM functionality is also missing.
It is good to see a joystick for navigating the OSD though, and this is flanked by the power button and one user configurable button.
