Review on Sceptre C275W-1920RN Monitor with Edgeless Design, High Dynamic Range, Curved Display, Flicker-Free, Built-In Speakers, HD Resolution, and HDMI Connectivity by Paul Boren

Should actually be cheaper

The monitor arrived on Saturday in good condition and I set it up right away. The colors out of the box were incredibly washed out and took a while to adjust to a more "normal" look. My biggest complaint about the 27-inch monitor is the screen resolutions available. Choose 1920 x 1080 (which is recommended and what I used on the 24" monitor I replaced) or 3180 x 2160 which is too small for a monitor of this size. I would like a size in the middle. sharpness too. Poor. Even at 1920 x 1080, fonts are blurry, making them appear fuzzy. I can't find any sharpness settings for the monitor itself. Since I bought this for a computer built for 4X video editing, it's incredibly disappointing. Overall it's workable and does what it says on the tin, but not quite worth what I paid for it. In my opinion, the regular price of a monitor should be around $125 (dropping to at least $99 on sale). The picture quality just doesn't match the higher price.
