Conclusion
We definitely don't condone AOC's decision to change the hardware in its monitor without telling anybody, but we have to admit that the e2795Vh has some strengths. Most importantly, gamers are likely to be wooed by an excellent response time. And everybody else will like the great value for money.
This is the second time that HannsG has managed to pull off a decent 28'' monitor for a price that easily beats the rest of the market. It's perfect for anybody who puts size and price ahead of insisting on the very best quality.
