We've seen plenty of zero bezel or similarly described monitors with a chunky bezel at the bottom, which is then used for controls and speakers etc. Today AOC announced its 4-sided frameless Q2781PQ monitor with an ultra slim design, stylish asymmetric stand, and 'frameless' design of minimal bezels around all four sides. Its frameless nature is quantified as a difficult-to-believe "2mm of casing" on the official product page.

You may have already deduced from the name that the AOC Q2781PQ monitor is a 27-incher. That panel is of the AH-IPS type offering wide viewing angles and full sRGB colour coverage. A Quad HD resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels is on offer here providing quite a bit more detail than the market leading Full HD screens, or 4x the resolution of a regular HD screen. Key monitor specifications are listed below for your immediate digestion.

No speakers? Good.

Asymmetical stand? Well, my OCD has problems with that lol.

27"? Well, I'd prefer a 32" model, personally.

No VESA? Would be nice to have - that screen would look nice floating off a wall on a mount for example.
