Acer XV282K KVbmiipruzx: The Ultimate 4K FreeSync Backlit Monitor with Agile Splendor Review

First off, I'm more than happy with this monitor, especially when it's only $300 (or $255 when I bought it on Prime Day). It arrived the next day and is fully functional. It was easy to set up and the settings are very simple. This is my first monitor so I can't compare it to other monitors. I'm too used to 4K gaming to go back to 1080p, but I also wanted higher frame rates, so I decided 1440p was a good balance for me. There were no dead pixels and backlight bleeding on this monitor alone, but

Update: If your display seems to flicker black randomly or when you click on a window, make sure you disable GSYNC in the Nvidia Control Panel. Apparently it is if you have an HDMI source even if you are using DisplayPort with this monitor. If this happens just disable it, not worth it unless you are using it as a secondary monitor to a real GSYNC monitor. I followed another review's instructions for a nice HDR display: enable HDR in Windows settings, set NVIDIA color. Settings (bottom part of…

No USB but that's ok because it has the latest firmware for brightness. I tried duplicating this monitor along with my 27gn750 and it didn't go above 1080p which is a native resolution of 750. You can expand the display and get 1440p. I actually had a crazy blur when trying to duplicate it. So you basically can't duplicate with a 1080p display unless you downgrade your resolution to the monitor's lowest resolution. Still looks amazing but I bought it for 1440p gaming so I'll let it run on its…

Let's start with the negatives, of which there are two: 1) The display, as many other reviews have pointed out, is _a little_ dim even at full brightness. This isn't a problem for me with my setup, but under certain lighting conditions I can see more screen reflections from the lights in the room (e.g. the backlight of my keyboard or even my desk when lit from above) than the display itself. This is usually only noticeable when the images on the display are very dark and the objects are well…

I bought the monitor because I've been a laptop gamer throughout my gaming career. I saw that this monitor had good reviews so I checked it out and decided to buy it. First, it was very easy to assemble the monitor and connect it to my laptop! It was very quick and easy. This monitor actually boosts my FPS compared to when I was just playing on my laptop. I can also run the same number of frames per second at 2560x1440 (2k) versus 1920x1080 (1080p). The monitor runs smoothly in games and in…

After using it for more than a year, I recommend this screen to gamers who want competitive games and story games as it combines these two parts as this screen has very beautiful colors and makes your experience in story games beautiful. For those who want it in competitive games, it also has good technologies like (HDR 400 - 98% color accuracy) to help you in competitive games, but there is something not good about it. When you turn on this technology (VRB (Extreme)) the colors have a halo of

The resolution is superb in the best resolution version. The colors are quite bright. The 144Hz refresh rate is great. Minimalist, beautiful. My problem with this is that during use my monitor randomly goes blank in the middle of an intense Cold War battle, black screen, noise intermittent as well. Sometimes the sound just disappears but my graphics remain. Usually lasts a few (about 5-10) seconds. But sometimes it takes about 30 seconds and it's quite annoying. It could be my computer or the…

I ordered two of these monitors about a month ago. Upon opening the box, I noticed that the two monitors are slightly different, but at the same time identical. The only difference was that one of the monitors had a power switch on the back and the other didn't. After about a week of use, I noticed that the monitor was significantly dimmer without the power button even though they had the same settings. I replaced my weak monitor with a Revain and got a new one with a switch on the back that…

This monitor is great for gaming at 1440p. G-Sync works well and runs at up to 144Hz. Response time and input lag are minimal. There is no noticeable motion blur. The back buttons are a little hard to read/feel when navigating menus. Make sure you use the right cables! For 144Hz at 1440p you need at least HDMI 2.0 or DisplayPort 1.2. The included monitor stand is wobbly. I have a VESA mount monitor on my arm. The back of the monitor is curved, which can make it difficult to attach lamps or…

So far I've really liked this monitor and was fortunate enough to purchase it for $449 which is 50% less than the MSRP at this price point. I say the monitor is worth every penny for what you get. However, if it is $899, I want to spend another $100-$200, you may have many more options. I only bought this to have a second monitor for my Xbox Series X as a dual monitor setup for my gaming PC and Xbox. Easy to use and set up, no dead zones and the color is surprisingly exceptional. I still need…

I bought the 27 inch QHD version of this monitor two months ago and it has been great so far. With a 60Hz 1080p monitor, this thing runs smoothly when gaming, and the QHD resolution is a huge step up from FHD. The navigation takes a bit of getting used to as my old monitor didn't have a joystick, but it's fairly easy and the connectivity is great. The 4-port USB 3 hub is also incredibly handy for connecting a microphone, webcam and external drives. or anything else you need quick access to…

First, let me explain my use cases. I mainly use this monitor for coding (8+ hours a day) and a few hours for vaping or casual gaming. So I need a monitor that can display crisp text and some sort of eye protection to reduce eye strain. Most importantly, I can finally unleash my GPU power with a proper 4k monitor. Also, this monitor can charge with 65W USB-C and in DP-ALT mode, which is a performance bonus for my work as I can use one of the monitors to display content on the iPad while…

So I bought this for my Xbox X series. I did a lot of research on what quality I could get for a reasonable price and here is what I found. To be honest I've never had anything better than GC so I have nothing to compare. I'm sure I couldn't have spent more money to get something much fresher. But I think the painting looks great and does the job for what I paid for it. Honestly, it could have done much better on a gaming PC, but like I said, I'll have to find that out later. I had no problems…

This monitor is amazing. I bought it on sale for $200. The graphics and resolution are amazing! My games look great. 27 inches is the perfect size for a base size table. I recommend this monitor to everyone. Note: The graphics will be better if you are using a Radeon AMD graphics card as this monitor only has the premium version of AMD Sync. It doesn't have G-Sync for Nvidia. Graphics look better with AMD since AMD's free premium sync is available.

I bought this specifically for console gaming in my prime, and it's going to be hard to beat the price of a quality budget monitor from a company I've heard of before. Since the Xbox is very careful about which monitors it allows 1440p at 120Hz playback on, this one made it out of the box with no issues. I was a bit hesitant at first because Acer 37 has similar models and I couldn't find a detailed technical review specific to this model, but it seems like a really solid monitor for the price.

I bought it for $209 during the last Prime Day Sale. It works great with Xbox Series X/S and PS5. With both consoles I was able to get them up to 1440p 120Hz right away without having to update the firmware or anything. VRR only works with XBOX as PS5 does not support Freesync. Very happy with the purchase.

Pros: Great price and build quality. Easily adjustable stand height and angle. Very high refresh rate. The supplied cables are of good quality. Cons: The matte screen is designed to diffuse glare, but instead it seems to add a small amount of even highlights from every angle. (I'd rather just change the angle of the monitor and have a glossy screen with deeper blacks.) 2K resolution is fine, but 4K would be noticeably better. LEDs, not OLEDs. A solid monitor for the price. 4.5 stars. 5 star…

Great monitor for gaming. One thing to keep in mind when using it with PS5. The new VRR setting can cause flickering in games and even in the PlayStation menu. Make sure to disable this setting and you'll be fine. IPS monitor design causes problems

Great buy for Xbox gamers. This monitor renders 1440p at 120Hz if you disable 4k and lower the color depth in the settings. Also, set the color space to PC RGB.

My machine was already configured for this type of display. plug and play I bought these because of the price and size. I wanted a larger 27" display and this fits perfectly.
