Review on ๐ŸŽฎ Sceptre C275B-FWN240 Monitor: FreeSync, frameless, curved, and built-in speakers by Jason Boones

Revainrating 2 out of 5

The picture is normal, the speakers are complete junk

Update 1/8/2022: I got it back. Crappy speakers kept failing and the monitor stand was poorly constructed. My desk has a raised platform for monitors and the monitor stand acts like a rocking chair every time I hit the desk. Due to the weight of the monitor, it just doesn't sit flat. It was a safety issue and I was afraid that if I sat down and accidentally hit my knee on the table, this huge thing would fall on me. If you do, don't rely on the stand or the speakers, both are junk. Also, the edges of the monitor screen are stretched and distort the image quite a bit. I would have expected some distortion from a curved screen, but it was also tedious to watch with small windowed apps like Windows Calculator. Price for what it is, but curved screens cost extra. If you thought you could go without speakers for a while like I did, you'd be wrong. The speakers are super tinny and not loud at all. It looks more like a speaker on a McDonald's toy. So be sure to buy separate speakers. I bought this thinking it was 4k to see my mistake later. It's still a decent monitor, but I doubt I'll keep it for long. I can give it to my brother if I can afford to buy another monitor.
