Xbox Series X support

Please note that when purchasing for Xbox Series X you will not get 1440p@120Hz, only 1080p@120Hz. If you are using 1440p then you must be using 60Hz. You may want to look for another x-series supported monitor.

Probably the best value for money.

It replaced a 1080p 144Hz monitor and was instantly better in every way. The only issue I had was a dead pixel, but Revain sent me a replacement right away. The replacement had no dead pixels Brightness: 9 out of 10 Resolution: 9 out of 10 Clarity: 10 out of 10 Color: 9 out of 10 Price: 10 out of 10

  • Up to 165Hz refresh rate. Stay connected with a 165Hz refresh rate that gives you the performance edge with instant frame rates.

When the computer goes to sleep, I have to turn off the monitor.

Each time the computer wakes up from sleep, the monitor DOES NOT DETECT the presence of a signal. I literally have to turn the display off and plug it back in before it detects the presence of a signal. This is VERY VERY frustrating and after I isolated the problem (I don't turn off my computer often) my return window closed.

  • Bad input lag

Speakers are very bad

Even at 100% volume, the internal speakers are barely audible and sound like a tin can and a string. No adjustments other than volume. Much worse than even my phone speaker. They are basically useless. Very disappointed as I was hoping with their help to get rid of my desk clutter. Image quality is good and sharp even at the highest resolution, and response times are good too. Especially in this price range. Just don't plan on using speakers

Both times I received a defective item.

Bought as my first gaming monitor. After 2 weeks it finally arrived. I unpacked the monitor and placed it on my desk. Connected to the computer and nothing. Only black and paper-thin cracks. "Maybe the shipping was just brutal," I thought as I ordered a replacement. After 1.5 weeks my replacement came in a different packaging design. Hm. I repeated the unpacking and it seems that the monitor earned! Then I noticed a big black squiggle. Good OK. I connected the white image generator and lo and…

Great product at a great price (back then)

What else can I say? (Also, complaints about it not staying in sleep mode probably indicate that a browser tab or app is keeping it from sleeping. This has happened to me, and the support team helped me in that direction. Simple test: Disconnect the video cable from the computer and see if the monitor stays in sleep mode).

Looks great and has some RGB on the back. The menu can be a little confusing at first how to work with it, and there are a few light spots on the side when it's dark.

Great monitor for PS5 at this price!

I use this with my PS5 with the FPS filter enabled and it's great. It's not a top-end monitor, but for the price, it's amazing. Built-in speakers are nothing, but that's the only downside I can find. Absolute deal. Very happy with the purchase

SHIPPING DAMAGE in my review

Man the quality of this monitor is good but I feel like shipping damaged the inside of my monitor. They didn't ship it in an Amazon box

Almost very good for me

Almost perfect but the pink spot on the screen bothers me and I don't want to return it but if I could trade it for a monitor without the pink spot on the monitor that would be perfect for me. EDIT) I was given the option to exchange through Revain but only sent it back for a refund as it would take too long to ship.

Something not so good in my rating

I was looking to switch to a PC monitor because I wanted to end up with dual screen so I thought it would be a good choice and generally it is. It's perfect for gaming, it has a built in speaker and I love the LED on the back, but a few days ago I noticed the monitor was making this soft squeaking sound and now I can't hear it when my computer is switched on. , It makes me crazy.

It's good if it worked.

Not working after 2 months. I've tried everything from disconnecting cables to switching ports and HDMI cables. It used to work on my laptop and Nintendo Switch. Now all I get is a black screen telling me there is no input and going into sleep mode (which was the most annoying thing). I even tried changing the PSU as a last option and still got the same message. Please be careful everyone. Maybe it's just my purchase, so I'm not saying it's the same for others. It worked great initially, but…

Decent enough monitor but build quality isn't the best

It's a decent monitor, but I do have some flare-ups on the right side due to build errors. I almost packed it for return, but I needed the monitor right away. I'll probably cover that spot with a small piece of black tape if that bothers me.

The perfect 1440p gaming monitor

A huge upgrade over a 1080p monitor. Great value for a 1440p gaming monitor, the LED backlight is an added bonus. Thanks for attention.

Better than expected

Honestly, in terms of value for money, this is the best monitor I have ever bought or seen. It performs great, I've played it on PS4 and seems to deliver real 2k. I haven't tried it with PS5 yet, but I think it's great because of the DisplayPort.

Worthy W-questions in my review.

The quality and color are great for me, just the average internet and gamer. My problem (like others after a bit of research) is that the monitor keeps plugging and unplugging when the computer is asleep or locked. I often lock my computer so it's annoying. Plugging and unplugging the device keeps making noise in my speakers when the computer is locked. I have to turn off the speakers. Not the end of the world, but annoying as hell. So I would buy a different monitor. Can be sold later, just…

The monitor turns on and off when it goes to sleep mode.

The picture quality and features are excellent for the price. Very fast and fluid picture. However, when the PC screen turns off or the PC goes into sleep mode, the monitor continues to turn on and off. Very pushy. I tried a replacement and it had the same problem. When I emailed support, I never got a response.

Highly recommended in my rating

Amazing picture. I have had multiple monitors and this is by far my favorite. Now I have 2 of them, I'm planning a third one soon. The only criticism is the lack of control over the RGB lighting on the back. You can turn it off, so it's not that bad.

Both times dead pixels

I looked at other reviews and thought they were just unlucky, so I took a chance and ordered one of these monitors. Turns out I have dead pixels in the top left corner. I decided to try again and ordered a replacement and the replacement also had dead pixels, only this time they were in the top center of the screen. I'm in the process of returning it and am considering a different monitor model from a different brand. Please listen to other reviews and don't buy, quality control is not very…
