iiyama ProLite X2791HS — 27" Full HD IPS, 120Hz, Tilt Stand
27" IPS1920 x 1080 120HzHDMI + DPTilt Stand
The iiyama ProLite X2791HS is a 27-inch (68.6 cm) IPS monitor with 1920 x 1080 Full HD resolution at 120Hz, built for office and home-office desks. The matte black panel sits in a 4-side slim bezel and delivers 178° viewing angles, 1500:1 static contrast and 350 cd/m² brightness, so text stays sharp and colours stay consistent when you look at it from the side or share the screen with a colleague.
Full HD at 27 inches is the comfortable office standard, and the 120Hz refresh rate makes scrolling, window dragging and casual gaming noticeably smoother than a classic 60Hz screen.
This is the X version with a fixed tilt stand, which keeps the price and the footprint down. It suits reception desks, classrooms, home offices and rows of identical workstations where the screen height is fixed by the desk anyway. The power supply is built in, so there is no external brick under the desk, and at 3.8 kg the monitor is light enough for any VESA 100 arm if you want height adjustment later. Buying several? The slim bezels make side-by-side dual-screen setups look tidy, with only a small gap between the panels.
What's in the Box
- Power cable (1.5 m)
- HDMI cable (1.5 m)
- Quick start guide and safety guide
What It Means in Practice
- One HDMI and one DisplayPort input — connect a work laptop and a home PC and switch between them from the OSD.
- The stand tilts 20° up / 3° down; for height adjustment, mount it on any VESA 100 x 100 arm.
- There is no USB hub: peripherals connect directly to your computer.
- Built-in 2 x 2W speakers and a headphone jack cover calls and system sounds; for music or meetings in an open office, use headphones or external speakers.
- Flicker-free backlight and a blue light reducer for long working days.
- i-Style Colour presets in the OSD switch the picture quickly between office text, photo, video and game modes, and the Eco mode lowers brightness and power use when full brightness is not needed.
- Matte anti-glare finish: windows and ceiling lights behind you reflect far less than on a glossy screen, which helps in bright Cypriot offices.
What Will Not Work
- No USB-C video input — a USB-C-only laptop needs a USB-C to HDMI or DisplayPort cable/adapter, and the monitor cannot charge it.
- No height, swivel or pivot adjustment on the included stand — tilt only.
- Not a high-refresh gaming monitor: 120Hz suit office work and casual games, not competitive esports at 144Hz+.
- No HDR support is published for this model — HDR content plays as standard dynamic range.
- No built-in webcam, USB hub or KVM switch.

Singular Expert Insight · Buyer's Guide
The X2791HS is a sensible, low-power office screen: IPS image quality, 120Hz smoothness and an internal power supply at an entry price. Its weak point is the tilt-only stand — if you work long hours, pair it with one of our
monitor arms and stands to set the height correctly. Ideal for reception desks, home offices and multi-screen rows where every desk gets the same model.
✓ Buy it if you want a 27" Full HD IPS screen with a simple, reliable stand for everyday office work.
✕ Skip it if you need height adjustment out of the box, or single-cable USB-C charging for a laptop.
→ Also consider an XB-series ProLite with a 150 mm height-adjustable stand, or a USB-C docking model such as the iiyama XB2797HSN-B1 or XB2797QSN-B1.
