    I understand that console refresh rate caps at 60hz and this monitor refresh rate is 75hz but the ms is 1 which the response time is much quicker, My other monitor / tv was 60hz 5ms so the response time was bad an gaming on that was just not quite smooth. Also the setting features is amazing specially having specific color / picture mode overall I’m loving this 27’ inch monitor! “Would recommend this for console gamers” 1st monitor is the BenQ in the picture

    The monitor looks great, however the base stand locks in BUT is super wobbly and actually tilts the monitor to the side no matter what i do to try to adjust it. Its so bothersome because its not just a small tiny amount that its crooked, its extremely noticible that the montitor is crooked to the side. Love the monitor, but hate the base stand and had to buy a table mount so that i could solve the issue. I would have preferred to use the base stand to save money, but nonetheless the monitor looks awesome and brightness and colors are great!

    I debated on a 4 or 5 star review. As a monitor, this is a fantastic budget monitor that's easy to set up. I honestly didn't even realize it had a speaker. So, without the speaker, I'd give it a 5. But since they included that feature, I have to factor it into my rating and well...it sucks. When connecting my laptop, by default it gets switched to the monitor for sound. Its tinny and not that powerful. When I play music, it sounds better, clearer and louder from my CLOSED Chromebook than it does from this monitor. And when I'm on calls, I plug in headphones.

    Was going to get another BenQ monitor that was around that was a 24 inch and $300 range. Until I saw this one that's 27 inch, was debating on it because of the price. So I was like heck with it wont hurt to try. Ended up doing the job and works great and have had zero issues. For a 27 inch monitor the price is fair.

    I love everything about this monitor as it is. The only reason I gave it a "4" is because it does not have a camera or mic. The colors are brilliant and pictures are sharp. Really good monitor. Plug your own speaker into it and you will have a great monitor that needs a camera built-in.

    It’a awesome! I went from playing on a 55” tv to this and I can’t even begin to explain how much better this is! There’s no screen lag or ghost imaging! For the money I doubt you’ll find a better monitor

    If you are looking for a dual set up for work, gaming or just to give your student a leg up then this product is your answer for the cash. Don't expect booming sound from the speaker set up however, most won't purchase these for that purpose.

    I had a stroke in November and have a job that requires staring at screens all day. I bought this because of the size and one-car and it's the only monitor I have that I don't get a headache with. I can't wait until I can afford another one!

    Easy to set up out of the box. Quality not as great as I expected but I have high standards. Used this for a work computer that I can present with in my office. The price was ok. I wish I could turn off the indicator light on the bottom of the monitor.

    Excellent quality and picture. I use three monitors to teach college classes on Zoom, so this was my third addition. I would highly recommend it for a single monitor or as an additional one. Also, I needed a monitor that had both DVI and HDMI connections; this was one of the few that had both.

    Great Monitor. It's hard to find a new monitor with both USB & DVI ports these days. This one has nearly all standard ports. and can accept USBC with the appropriate adaptor. Easy to assemble with a very stable mount.
