really good monitor to play games on at 165hz. its not to bad for a 1080p. it was easy to set up, and it has 1 display port and 2 HDMI ports. the only thing that was irritating was getting used to using the menu. its difficult at first but then becomes easier the more you tinker with it. its worth it if you want a budget gaming monitor.

Excellent budget monitor, especially if on sale.
Great for console, good enough for pc.
Color is a little lacking, but it’s a large curved monitor which helps for the immersion.
Been my main monitor for about 2 years and I haven’t had any sync/tearing issues, or dead pixels.

Great Monitor for a Great Price

Bought this monitor for my son's new gaming computer. He needed a 145htz & this was 165htz & on sale for $180 so we jumped on it. We are very happy with it so far, it's been about 3 weeks that he's been using it & he absolutely loves it. Great monitor for a great price. I researched the name brand because I wasn't familiar with it & it turns it is associated with the Acer brand & we love Acer. Couldn't be happier. Highly recommend if you want a great monitor without breaking the bank.

Model I received is the same, but it looks completely different than what is advertised on this listing. No tri-pod like stand, color is just black; no red details. It looks more boring and office like. I'll still keep it for the refresh rate and size is as advertised, but I feel as if I were tricked into buying a different aesthetic than what I thought I was going to receive.

The most perfect curved monitor out there...

I recently purchased this monitor after my old Samsung one began to show signs of wear and tear: pixels started "dying," the stand started to loosen up, etc. I needed to switch up my setup. And wow, this was one of the best purchases I made!
Firstly, the base on this monitor is incredibly sturdy. Yes, all monitors will sway slightly, but the strength that the monitor stand and arm have is great; you know this monitor is not at risk of falling down! On top of this, there is a monitor arm mount section on the back of this monitor already, meaning that if you already have a desk-clamped monitor arm and wish to attach this new monitor to it, you can! I personally don't have this, but with the option available... who knows! The monitor is also not fixed to the arm, meaning that you can tilt it backwards and forwards, allowing you to position it to your liking.
Secondly, the size of this screen is absolutely incredible. My old Samsung monitor was 24 inches, so upgrading from that to 27 inches is such a game-changer! And the incredible curve on this monitor adds so much to your gaming experience. Not only do you feel even closer to the game, almost like you're in it, but the quality is also so high! This monitor also gives you different "color profiles" to choose from, including, but not limited to, "action," "racing," and "sports." And the menu navigation on this monitor is incredibly smooth; you can tailor it to your preferences.
Thirdly, the input situations on this monitor are incredibly clean. There are two HDMI ports, meaning that you can have multiple devices at the ready to be used with this monitor. However, the single downside to the hardware of this monitor is the pesky blue LED light on the bottom of it. Situated on the underside of the front-facing logo is a blue LED light that turns on when the monitor is off. This means that if you are in a pitch-black room with all lights off, you will see this bright blue LED light... and, as far as I know, there is no way to turn it off in your settings. I get around this by just unplugging the monitor's power cord whenever I'm done using it. This is an easy workaround, but it can be a hassle to have to repeat this action of unplugging and replugging the power cord every time.
All in all, for $179.99 (with some sales here and there), this monitor is absolutely worth it! From its curved design to its outstanding quality, this monitor is a must-buy for those who want to upgrade their setups without breaking the bank!

Awesome monitor! I was a little bit skeptical about it at first because monitors this good often don't come this cheap. However, I decided to buy and, despite a review of this that I saw, it was not 24 inches, but it was indeed the posted 27 (which I know is a minor thing but I was slightly concerned about it). This is a great monitor with 165hz and has a pretty well navigable menu on it. I love it and it is awesome! The only complaint that I have about it is the fact that with the stand, it is a little bit shaky, but still is sturdy enough that it certainly won't fall. (and this can be remedied by using the wall mound slots that it comes with if you choose to do so).

Extremely good value for the money. My older 60hz monitor couldn't keep up with the competitive nature of the games I play. The fast refresh rate have improved my gameplay experiences tremendously. This was my first curved monitor so wasn't sure if I would like the curved screen. I definitely do, it more naturally adapts to my field of view and improves immersion and focus.

For the price it’s a great monitor but the ad is a bit misleading. It only goes up to 144hz. For the price point, you get what you pay for as it’s built on the “cheaper” side and the panel has some issues. Besides the actual build of it, it’s a pretty good monitor for those wanting a larger 144hz size!

So far I love this monitor! I was able to hook it to both my computer and my Nintendo Switch with no problems. The curved screen really makes the picture pop. For sound, I just connected my speakers to the headphone jack and it works like a charm.

Love it but the manual needs improvement.

I absolutely love the monitor and it’s quality. Only thing is the manual has a different language for each page. The first page is English and the rest is complete gibberish as I don’t know any other languages. So I don’t know how to get the full benefits of the monitor seeing that I can’t understand the manual...

We bought this for our Grandson to use with a new gaming computer. He is very pleased with this monitor. He says it has a good refresh rate.
