I'm thinking about buying a 27-inch monitor, but my friend warned me against getting a Full HD model, saying that it can look pixelated on a screen that size. He suggested I go for at least a 2K resolution. Is it really that important? Can I manage with Full HD, or should I definitely opt for a higher resolution?

Honestly, your friend has a point. The pixel density for 1080p on a 27" screen isn't great. I wouldn't recommend it unless you're going for a smaller size. If your GPU can handle it, a 1440p monitor is the way to go.
I agree with getting 1440p if you're buying new. I have two 27-inch 1080p monitors, and while they aren't pixelated for me, the sharpness of 1440p is noticeable. If your budget allows, definitely go for the higher resolution!
I've got a 1080p curved monitor alongside my 27-inch 1440p OLED, and the difference is huge! The color quality and clarity are way better on the 1440p. If you can afford it, go for that for sure!
For a 27-inch monitor, you really should aim for at least 1440p. The image quality is way better than Full HD, especially if you're gaming or using it for graphic work. Just keep in mind you'll need a decent graphics card to push that resolution smoothly.
If it fits your budget, just go for 4K. It's the best quality you can get right now, especially if you're into gaming or design.
