Review on Acer Predator XB271HU Bmiprz: 2560x1440 WQHD with Built-in Speakers and HD Clarity by Eli Orr

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Really good but maybe not worth the price.

The size, resolution, refresh rate and color quality of these monitors are really great (I bought two of them). But I have two complaints about the monitors. The biggest problem is that the colors are not displayed the same on both monitors. Extending the same "standard" white screen to both monitors, and the color will be slightly different on different monitors. I've spent hours tweaking the colors (saturation, hue, everything) to match to no avail. I'm mostly used to it at this point, but it's still annoying. The second problem is that sometimes a vertical line appears on the screen, causing the image to become misaligned. I don't know the cause or source of this problem, but I can fix it by switching the output to a different source and then back again. I bought these monitors for gaming and to be honest I'm not sure. I noticed a definite improvement which I was hoping for based on the cost. Acer has a $250 27-inch 2K IPS monitor that I think is the best choice for most people.
