Review on Acer CB272 Bmiprx FreeSync Technology 75Hz Monitor with Built-In Speakers by Victor Mosley

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works great with Mac!

The important things first. I've spent many hours looking for a monitor. I am a software developer by profession and work from home 3-4 hours a day. I needed a monitor that would work with my MacBook and I was on a budget. I've looked at a lot of monitors, but like most budget monitors, something is missing. HDMI works well if you have a 4k monitor. 2- Adjustable stand (it's a fantastic totally useful stand) 3- Speakers (speakers aren't great and that's what you'd expect from a 2 watt speaker) I almost bought a View Sonic monitor and then this monitor popped up . I liked the fact that it has a 360 foot stand and it really works. It was a really hard decision to buy this monitor as it doesn't have many reviews and it's just launched, but so far it's working great and my eyes are thankful after long hours of programming. Also, I get the full 75Hz on my Mac! Cons - The menu buttons are on the back making it very difficult to guess which button does what - There are two on/off buttons! Please, whoever came up with this weird design deserves a pay cut! MAKE SURE TO TURN BOTH ON/OFF BUTTONS ON or you'll fight like me. - Also, the round button for navigation, learned the hard way. The GENERAL only downside is the menu button, but luckily you won't be using it every day. I'm happy with the purchase and for the money I paid I think it's a good buy!

Pros
  • Connections: 1 x Displayport, 1 x HDMI, 1 x VGA, 1 x audio input and 1 x audio output (VGA and audio cables included)
Cons
  • There are downsides
