Current exact US maker images and both independent reviews instead identify DisplayHDR 1000. The current registry is used for formal certification because it explicitly names M27T6S and no documented region or hardware revision exclusion was found. The conflicting lower maker/review naming is preserved. No peak brightness value is derived from the tier and no VA sibling hardware is inherited.

The chart separately identifies On Display Lag, USB Polling Delay, Render Time and Total Input Lag. The stored figure is On Display Lag, including display response, excluding the host polling/render pipeline. Local dimming enabled measures 14.28 ms in the same review and is not mixed into this run. Tom's Hardware LDAT 15.9 ms end-to-end mouse/software result is excluded. The review does not state OSRTT software version or latency calibration procedure. The stored value is explicitly labelled display-only by the reviewer and current chart. Its isolation algorithm was not independently verified. Legacy OSRTT total-system documentation is not treated as defining this separately labelled result.11Maker product pagegithub.com/OSRTT/OSLTTDocs/blob/main/index.mdRead 8 October 2026Current tool maintainer documentation lists On Display Latency separately from total system click-to-photon latency and states the custom DirectX test is the same as OSRTT.

The chart separates On Display Lag from host polling/render pipeline and total input. Local-dimming-on 33.71 ms is a separate condition, not substituted. The review does not state OSRTT software version or latency calibration procedure. The stored value is explicitly labelled display-only by the reviewer and current chart. Its isolation algorithm was not independently verified. Legacy OSRTT total-system documentation is not treated as defining this separately labelled result.11Maker product pagegithub.com/OSRTT/OSLTTDocs/blob/main/index.mdRead 8 October 2026Same current maintainer documentation supports the separately reported On Display Lag category. No reviewer-specific calibration or algorithm validation is claimed.

OSRTT measured 5.23 ms mean initial grey-to-grey transition time across its matrix. Chart explicitly RGB 5 tolerance, not a 10–90% endpoint. Average complete settling time 10.04 ms and perceived time 5.33 ms are separate and not substituted. The same chart labels overshoot as raw RGB error with mean 0.93 and worst 6, while review prose appends a percent sign to 0.93. No overshoot percentage is stored because the chart and official OSRTT method identify raw RGB units.

Monitor, Stand and base, DisplayPort cable, Power cord, User guide, Warranty card, Factory calibration report2Owner's manualus.ktcplay.com/cdn/shop/files/M27T6S-USE_MANUAL.pdfRead 8 October 2026Original guide lists monitor, base, DP cable and user guide including warranty card, with power cord conditional on the actual package. Exact US review confirms IEC power cord, stand assembly and DisplayPort cable. Exact independently tested USA-1.0.1 review also explicitly lists a physical factory calibration report and quick start guide. Current web table additionally lists Type-C, which neither the original guide nor either reviewed bundle confirms, so it is omitted.4Reviewdisplayninja.com/ktc-m27t6s-reviewRead 8 October 2026
