My First Gaming Monitor and The Best So Far!Company extended my WFH schedule so I’ll have to spend several weeks more working remotely, and figured it is really time to get an extra monitor for my work laptop extended screen and hopefully for my gaming PC upgrade as well.I was particularly looking for a 4K/QHD monitor since I do a lot of Excels so I gain more cells with higher resolution. However I was told by my roommate that for 27” screen size, going above 1080p doesn’t make much of a difference. Well guess she’s right, here I am, for the same price range of a regular 27” QHD 60hz monitor, with a Sceptre 1080p 27” 165hz gaming monitor1. My roommate is definitely right, for 27” a 1080p monitor is way enough for the clarity and sharpness. Her 27” 4K monitor does show more contents but all letters and characters are just too small in return2. A DisplayPort cable is included instead of a regular HDMI one. Nice now I can connect it with my work laptop via HDMI and my gaming PC via DP, one button switch to work and one more button to games, with no more plugging and unplugging3. The screen itself is very impressive in the slim bezel chasis, no dead pixels or so, native 165hz, fast response time 1ms, rich menu customization and more. Basically it has everything I need to be a work/play 2-in-1, even in Excel/Outlook where most of the pure white color background is used, the screen displays the true colors needed. The only thing is you get 144hz only with HDMI, so make sure DP is used if you want to maximize the refresh rate4. Monitor comes with AMD FreeSync Premium certified, seems to be an upgraded standard of AMD FreeSync. Wish it could do HDR as well, will find out5. Monitor also comes equipped with speakers built-in, pretty amazing. I’ll say for gaming, stick to your over-the-ear headphones and for working where you might to be focus with some environment noise, speaker output might be something you need in certain scenarios so speakers are definitely a plusOverall this is a very nice gaming monitor, even for me half work and half gaming. Will definitely recommend to my friends and might buy a second one to do dual monitor setup to utilize company’s WFH reimbursement policy. Cheers.

Excellent Monitor for the priceAn excellent budget gaming monitor due to the current GPU shortage and the insane prices I’m stuck with a GTX 1080 for the foreseeable future, as a result I didn’t want to go beyond a1080P Monitor, but wanted to replace my old 24″ 75 Hertz panel in my dual monitor setup which died with something that had a bit more oomf.Installation was extremely simple no need to even open the manual which came with the panel, it also came with a Phillip’s head screw driver to install the four screws which I considered to be a nice little touch.One caveat the monitor comes with a Display Port cable and no HDMI cable, this wasn’t a problem for me because it was always my intention to install it via DP and I have a plethora of HDMI cables lying around but those seeking to utilize this through HDMI should be aware.This Panel itself exceeded my expectations, the picture quality is great, colors pop without being too over saturated or washed out, for best results I recommend fine tuning the settings, but you have the option to use one of the suggested presets, This is also my first free sync panel which works with Nvidia’s Gsync software after enabling the option in the Monitor’s options menu which allows for very smooth gameplay.Speaking of the Options Menu, the buttons to open and navigate it are located behind the monitor on the right hand side, it’s a little fiddly because facing the front of the monitor you have no indicators or labels for the buttons and it will take some getting used to in order to navigate the settings.The monitor also has no vertical adjustment and can only be angled up or down which is to be expected for a budget monitor and is hardly worth complaining about.Beyond the minor gripes I’ve been very satisfied with my purchase.

Very good monitorI decided to try this monitor out since I badly needed an upgrade from an old monitor I bought years ago. The settings right out of the box seemed fine to me, but some may need to adjust their settings to get the look they want. The picture quality with games and videos is great. Overall I’m very satisfied with this purchase, but my only issue is the sound quality of the built in speakers. The speaker quality is not very good and is very low quality. If you plan on buying this monitor for the speakers I suggest investing in a sound bar, or buy a different monitor with better speakers. Also comes with a DisplayPort cable.

Great but the mine was defectiveMonitor is great so far,but beware the power supply. First week and mine is over heating. Will update if the new power supply works.-update- new power supply did not correct the issue. Monitor would not run anything past 60 hrtz I had to return it. Most likely just a defective monitor but I went with something else.

HDMI 1.4 @ 144hz 👍This monitor is very light weight and provides good picture quality. I have a laptop with a 1.4 HDMI port and was able to connect my laptop to the monitor and get the 144hz just like it says. I do not have a Display Port on my laptop and only had a HDMI 1.4 port. I recommend this monitor if you only have a HDMI 1.4 port and want to get the 144hz. I purchased several different monitors that said they have 144hz but because I only have a HDMI 1.4 port those other monitors didn’t work for me !

5 stars! to Amazon for having my back!why the one star… for the idiot techy at the company who tried everything to refuse to replace my monitor because it had MORE than 2 dead pixels (almost 3mths and it happened). even accused of me not realising it’s a smudge on the screen when I even had to tell him to zoom in on the picture after him telling me he doesn’t see anything. yeah ok, company focus is getting ones money regardless of the quality being put out and than turning around and assuming the consumer is an idiot and treat them as such. thankfully Amazon had my back even after the return date by replacing it. of course now getting an email asking for the other one back as if I forgot to send it but they in turn didn’t even send me a return label nor mentioned what to do with it, lol, I’m guessing they were hoping I would just choose to keep it but I want nothing from this brand ever.
