Review on πŸ–₯️ Sceptre E345B-QUT168: UltraWide 3440x1440 Monitor with Built-In Speakers, Flicker-Free Technology, Blue Light Filter, Frameless Design, HD IPS Display by Anthony Russell

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Well-sized monitors - call it 4.5

I didn't give it a 5 because people don't usually read "great" reviews and I wanted to point out a few things. I bought two of these and switched from two 27” flat screens due to the vision and need for larger screens; all this "aging" :) First of all, the description is not entirely correct. It says "Multiple ports, three HDMIs and ONE DisplayPort". Although the image shown is correct, the monitor only has two HDMI ports and one DisplayPort, not three HDMI ports. If the user has two HDMI ports or at least one HDMI port and one display port, there is no problem. The monitor doesn't have a VGA port and my computer doesn't have two HDMI ports or a display port, I had to use an adapter to connect my HDMI monitor to VGA. Unfortunately, this did not allow obtaining the required full approval. A monitor (HDMI-HDMI) has perfectly sharp letters at 2560x1080, but the monitor connected to the adapter does not allow resolutions higher than 1920x1080, which makes the print a little blurry. I checked and there isn't a separate HDMI adapter available, at least not at the "normal" price point, that allows for extended displays, just duplicating or mirroring, and there don't seem to be any adapters that go from VGA to DisplayPort. As stated in previous reviews. Speakers aren't the best. they have a tinny "distant" sound. Suitable for listening to weather forecast or news but not necessarily listening to music, games etc. With two monitors connected I only get sound from one; no stereo. That being said, the monitors are fairly easy to set up in the usual display areas, including brightness, backlight level, color, etc. The key sequence can take a little getting used to, but I never read the instructions :)
