Amazing monitor: my review

This monitor can't be beat for the price. It's cheaper than other 1440p monitors, but it doesn't sacrifice quality like most other cheaper monitors you see on the market. Let's start by saying that the image quality is amazing. There were no dead/stuck pixels, screen burn-in or ghosting, so you don't have to worry about a thing. The 2560 x 1440 resolution is a great compromise between 1080p and 4k for gaming. You don't lose many frames per second due to the higher resolution (although I don't know the exact number of frames per second lost, I would say maybe around 2-5 frames per second). Based on the Scepter 1080p monitor, I can say that the design quality of this monitor is excellent. The monitor is made of plastic, but it doesn't look cheap. The stand is adjustable in two ways: height and angle. The stand is easily adjustable and does not require much effort to adjust. The bezels are surprisingly small, which is relatively rare for PC monitors. The only problem I had was not with the monitor but with Windows. Windows automatically scales the screen to 125% due to the high resolution, however some UI elements may appear blurry due to the scaling. Again, this isn't a monitor issue (it happens on almost every monitor of any brand above 1080p). The only way to fix this is to scale down to 100%. Scaling is no reason to deviate from this monitor at all. This is an amazing monitor at such a low price and if you are looking for a good high resolution monitor for gaming or general use then this is the one you should buy.
