Review on Sceptre C248W 1920R Monitor: Curved DisplayPort Screen with Built-In Speakers, Wall Mountable & Flicker-Free Technology - C248W-1920R by Josh Hunter

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Bent friendliness / Not good speakers / 60Hz-75Hz

Curve is good and all, but color quality/true black/sharpness leaves something to be desired. If you have used/currently use an IPS display just stick with it, if not it's still a very good monitor for the price. Pros: - It looks natural when it has a curve and the response/refresh rate is suitable for gaming. (BF1/CS:GO) - It has speakers that excite, most monitors I throw away completely lean over as an option. OverDrive is a pretty cool feature. Cons: - Again, the color quality/sharpness leaves a lot to be desired compared to other monitors, and there's really only so much you can do with that perfect combination of backlight and brightness. - The speakers are on the back of the monitor, facing up, so honestly you should never rely on them, but it's nice to have them as a backup when you're desperate for some audio. Tip for Nvidia GPU owners: Right click on Desktop -> NVIDIA Control Panel -> Di 'splay' drop down menu -> 'Adjust Desktop Color Settings' -> 'Digital Vibration' to 100% -> 'Apply Settings and enjoy a great game / PCMR (this option probably exists in a different form / designation for AMD GPUs)
