Lenovo’s new Bellator N27UZ is a 27-inch Mini-LED gaming monitor that runs at 4K up to 200Hz, or drops to 1080p and runs up to 400Hz. It has 1,152 dimming zones and a 1,600-nit HDR peak.
It’s CNY 2,199 in China, about $330. There’s no US price and no US launch, and it isn’t on Amazon. If you want this kind of monitor in the US, the closest match is AOC’s U27G4XM for $349.99.

4K at 200Hz or 1080p at 400Hz
Dual mode lets one monitor do two jobs. In 4K, the Fast IPS panel runs at 180Hz, or 200Hz with overclocking. Switch to 1080p and it runs at 360Hz, or 400Hz overclocked.
In practice, that means 4K for single-player games, movies and work, then 1080p for Valorant or Counter-Strike 2, where frame rate counts more than detail. A 27-inch screen at 1080p looks soft for desktop work, so most people will live in 4K and switch for shooters.
Lenovo rates response time at 1ms gray-to-gray and 0.5ms MPRT. It supports Adaptive Sync, G-Sync Compatible and FreeSync, so it works with Nvidia and AMD graphics cards.
1,152 zones and 1,600 nits
The Mini-LED backlight splits the screen into 1,152 zones that dim separately. That’s what keeps dark scenes dark while bright highlights stay bright. Lenovo rates it at 450 nits for SDR, 900 nits typical in HDR and 1,600 nits peak.
Color is 10-bit through 8-bit plus FRC, with 99% sRGB and 95% DCI-P3 coverage and a factory calibration of Delta E 2 or lower. Static contrast is 1,000:1, which is normal for IPS. The zones do the heavy lifting.
Ports and the 65W USB-C limit
You get two HDMI 2.1 ports, one DisplayPort 1.4, a USB-C port with 65W charging, two USB-A ports, a USB-B upstream port and a headphone jack. HDMI 2.1 covers a PS5 or Xbox Series X at 4K 120Hz.
One USB-C cable can carry video, data and power to a laptop. 65W keeps a thin-and-light charged, but a gaming laptop will still need its own charger.
Can you buy it in the US?
Not officially. Lenovo sells it through its China store and JD.com, and Bellator models rarely leave China. Importing one means no US warranty, a China-market power setup and shipping that eats into the $330 price.
The AOC U27G4XM is the practical US pick at $349.99 on Amazon. It’s also a 27-inch 4K Mini-LED with 1,152 zones and dual mode, topping out at 160Hz in 4K and 320Hz in 1080p. You give up some refresh rate and get US support.
If you’d rather skip Mini-LED, LG’s UltraGear 27G810A-B is $399.99 and does 4K at 180Hz or 1080p at 360Hz on a standard IPS panel.
Who should buy it
The stand adjusts for height, tilt and swivel, and the panel takes a 100 x 100mm VESA mount if you’d rather use an arm.
Buy the N27UZ if you live in China, or you’re comfortable importing, and want the most refresh rate and HDR brightness for the money. At about $330, nothing in the US matches it on paper.
Everyone else should buy the AOC. It’s $20 more, it ships from Amazon, and the gap to 400Hz won’t show up in most games.

US alternative: AOC U27G4XM at Amazon ($349.99)
The AOC U27G4XM is the same idea with US support and Amazon returns.
If Lenovo brings the N27UZ to the US anywhere near $330, it’ll be the 4K Mini-LED monitor to beat.
