Sceptre C248B 144RN: Edge Less FreeSync DisplayPort, Curved Screen, 165Hz, Built-In Speakers, Frameless Design, Blue Light Filter – LED Monitor Review

Got this as an upgrade for my almost 10 year old (though still great) monitor. I chose the C24 curved monitor because I play a lot of games and the price of this monitor was too good to pass up. It was very easy to assemble and set up. The stand is metal and very sturdy and comes with a pair of cable management clips. There's no vertical height adjustment or swivel functionality, but it does tilt up and down. I have a monitor stand, the height I need. I don't have any streaks or dead pixels…

Overall I am impressed with this monitor. I have had Scepter products before and they are good value and you get what you pay for. That being said, just like with any purchase you make, you get value for money minus some compromises. ---Pros: Switching from a 60Hz monitor to a 144Hz monitor is the difference between day and night when gaming. AMD FreeSync works well. Colors may need to be adjusted right out of the box, but in my opinion that's a compromise for what you're paying for. Great…

Hello! Good evening/morning/afternoon. Here's the review! As an amateur reviewer I understand the limits of budget, working within my means as best I can while still being poor but wanting something you know to keep that flame alive in you. We all need entertainment in one way or another. So I'll check out the "cheap" stuff and see if it's worth it for you. Because while it may be cheap for others, it can be an investment. I understand that! No judgment because I'm damn poor too. Company…

First, I'm not a fan of monitors. I'm just a gamer who wanted a high refresh rate monitor with adaptive sync for 1080p games because I mainly play esports shooters (Overwatch, Apex Legends, CS:GO, etc.). Also, I bought this monitor on the Prime Day sale for $120 so it's a slightly better deal in my case but even at $150-160 this monitor is still good value in this spec range Relationship. GamesGame performance is everything. for me, and I think it will be the most important thing for you too…

This is arguably the best budget 144Hz monitor out there. I'm not the most tech savvy guy in the world, but I play a lot of games. This is my first time using 144Hz and that's a big difference from 60Hz. In terms of build quality, it looks great out of the box. It includes a metal stand with no height adjustment. It can also be wall mounted with a specific size Vesa mount. The curve on the screen is so thin I don't care. This can be good or bad depending on your preference. I feel comfortable…

Okay, let's get this straight, you're buying a gaming monitor for less than $200, so don't expect all the bells and whistles. Still, this is one hell of a panel for the price and performance. I haven't calibrated everything to my liking yet, so I'll probably write another review later. Having previously purchased monitors from Scepter I can honestly say that they are reliable and deliver what you would expect from a company that has a solid history of selling computer displays. Out of the box…

I received this monitor on June 8, I ordered it abroad, I paid for fast shipping, so it arrived where I am literally in 3 days. I thought since people were complaining so much about it I would break it since I ordered it from abroad but I was wrong. I received it in perfect condition, I've been playing it every day since I received it. I love it so far. The only bad thing about it is the colors, so you have to play with it A LOT to change it the way you like the colors. Another issue is the…

Installation was very easy, two screws go into the back of the monitor, two more into the base. Including Phillips screwdriver. There is an HDMI 1.4 port that supports 1080@120Hz, an HDMI 2.0 port that supports 1080@144Hz, and a DisplayPort that supports 1080@144Hz. The monitor comes with a DisplayPort cable. When the monitor is on it runs at 60Hz. This needs to be changed in the settings of windows 10. In the resolution settings is the Advance Display Adapter settings, here change it to 144Hz.

Zepter brand computer monitors are some of the best monitors I have ever used. I've had my current two monitors (24" and 27" curved) for over a year now, sitting at my PC for hours every day and haven't had any issues with either of them. The quality is excellent, the picture is crystal clear, there are no color problems. It is very well made and the coasters are very sturdy; Easily attaches to your monitor mount if you want! Also very well packaged with care. I will be ordering a third monitor

I waited a while to review it as I wanted to make sure it would hold up. It was bought for our first gaming PC. Pretty happy. I don't compare it to more expensive 144hz monitors as this is my first monitor but it looks great and I think it's reasonable enough for the price. The stand could be bigger or better shaped. It doesn't wobble, seems solid, but I'm afraid I won't accidentally knock it over. It feels like it's too heavy for a stand design. I was pretty sure we broke the screen the first…

TLDR: Good monitor at time of purchase ($154.99), good for gaming and everyday use. Colors are a bit washed out and brightness is a bit dull. I bought this monitor in August 2019. It cost $154.99 at the time. This was my first large monitor, bought just before college. I bought a brand new computer because I wanted it fresh for college so technical issues were unlikely to arise. It definitely doesn't disappoint! It took me a while to get used to the curved screen, but I still really liked it. I

I bought 2 of these and was very concerned after reading some of the reviews. I watched tons of YouTube videos and read a lot (as I always do) before buying. I was replying to a review on this, notice where someone mentioned Spectre's dead pixel policy. After reading this review I basically closed this site and looked elsewhere. I've found that almost every monitor company has the same dead pixel policy (which I think is utter rubbish). I have 3 other Specter monitors. A 19" monitor I bought…

I bought it for a new PC I'm assembling. I was apprehensive about some of the reviews I read but was very pleasantly surprised. Those who say this display is only 60Hz just don't get what they're talking about. It's set at 60Hz, but can be quickly switched to 144Hz in Windows display settings. It's easy and the difference is very clear. This display has a working displayport (I believe you only get 120Hz if you use HDMI, so if the review says so, they're probably using HDMI). The FreeSync…

I bought them individually and I like them. I play everything from ffxiv to dying light, horizon zero dawn etc. The games look GREAT on them and they are bigger than I thought they would be. (They aren't HUGE - I prefer smaller screens for my eyes). Just plug them in and play. I had my first over a year ago and it still looks great except for ONE dead pixel. I noticed it once and then forgot until now. My computer normally works 7 days a week and I have already spent thousands of hours using…

I bought 4 of these for 4 computers I built for my kids for Christmas. Of the first 4 delivered, 3 worked fine and 1 didn't reach 144Hz, only 60Hz. 144Hz was grainy on half the screen. Revain contacted Specter Technical Support over the phone and they were very accommodating and approved shipping a replacement monitor on Christmas Eve. Everything was great until the other monitor (one of the original 3 on the left) just stopped displaying (a flashing white, red, green, blue, black screen) which

I bought this monitor a little over a year and a half ago and it's still working as well as the day I got it. There is no reduction in image quality, dead pixels and lag. Since I found this out in the middle of COVID, the monitor has been used almost constantly and I'm very happy with it. In addition, it is easy to read from any viewing angle and practically does not dazzle even in direct sunlight. Overall a great monitor as I bought it for $164 and still recommend it for the price I'm writing…

The curve is subtle, so pretty much negligible, which is my preference for any monitor up to 32 inches. The default settings are slightly different, so you'll have to spend some time adjusting the color settings in both your monitor's settings and your operating system. Don't forget to turn on Overdrive in your monitor settings right away. Once I have the color settings, it looks amazing! Also comes with a screwdriver and display port cable, a big plus. The only downside is that it's not the…

Decent product if it's in your budget. Has a blue light function that prevents your eyes from burning when you have to enjoy intense hours of gaming.

I bought Duals to set up my grandson. I have a 27" Zepter 144htz Twin. I have to say they have absolutely the best image. I would recommend them to anyone.

This worked for me, not sure if it works for everyone. The reason for this problem was that my computer was using the wrong memory and I had to install Windows on my main memory SSD.1. Make sure you have a DisplayPort cable (included with the monitor) OR HDMI cable (not included with the monitor) connecting the computer case and the monitor and a black adapter that plugs into the monitor is connected. Leave the monitor and PC switched off.2. Turn on the computer tower, then the monitor. A red…
