Good but arrived with dead pixels

Everything was fine until I realized there were stuck pixels in the center of the screen. I can send it to Acer for fix but it will take a long time to get back. Otherwise a very good monitor for the price.

The speakers are terrible in my opinion.

It's definitely more vibrant and vibrant than my regular laptop screen, and the minimal bezel keeps it thin and clear. My only issue is that the display is slightly blurry, but I'm sure more tweaking can fix that. There are speakers built into the monitor and they are just awful. Be sure to look for external speakers if you plan to play audio from your computer. Works comfortably with my streaming, desk work, and digital media needs. Easy setup too

The LED display is the best in my rating

This is an LED display and I bought it for office work, not gaming. It has good picture quality, everything on the screen is sharp and text is very clear. Completely satisfied with the purchase. This is my first time buying an Acer product.

Would like an adjustable stand.

Image quality is well above my expectations, both when gaming (with the right settings) and casual web browsing. The refresh rate is more than sufficient for gaming in particular, as long as there are no tearing or blue screens.

Excellent monitor in my review.

This monitor is great! If there was one thing I would change I would add better speakers but the speakers are good! I really love it!

Great bang for your buck!

I have two of these monitors and have to say they are an absolute steal. The quality is fantastic and they were packaged and protected very well. I recommend these monitors for a lower budget but high quality monitor.

In my rating everything on A+ is the best

I can't even begin to describe the difference between 30Hz and 120Hz refresh rates. Smell it later: 720p, 15ms response time and 30Hz refresh rate. Got this for my console and it's amazing. The lack of dead pixels on arrival could not but rejoice.

great monitor: my review

I have two, one for my son and one for my wife. So far so good and no complaints. My son loves it because it looks "cool". From what I've seen so far, the image quality is solid (after making a few tweaks to the settings) and it was a breeze to set up. Bought on sale for €200. I would like to buy 2 more for myself, maybe next time.

Worth buying for the price and quality

I know this is a bit hasty as I just received and hooked it up, but so far so good. No dead pixels or damage of any kind. I wish ACER would have packed a DP cable, just like buying a 144hz monitor it's not a problem if you aim for 144hz. and DP is the only way to get 144Hz. Other complaints, like the weak stand and lack of tilt, don't bother me as it can still be wall mounted.

Good price for the price I paid.

I bought it to replace my old Acer x223w which still works after 10 years. But my old x233w didn't have 1080p and FreeSync which I was looking for. Anyway, this monitor has been working flawlessly for about a month now as I write this review. No dead pixels. The color is a bit lighter than my old x223w. The only criticism is that it would be nice if an HDMI cable was included.

Black screen boot apps

I've had this monitor for a while and so far it has never bothered me. Whenever I open a game, app, or literally anything else, the screen goes black for a few seconds. I'm on the X series and PS4; happens to both. If anyone knows how to fix this that would be great.

The stand is just ridiculous

In general the monitor itself is excellent, clear etc. But the STAND is depressingly large. It's like a giant chicken claw. It takes up so much table space I can't even believe it. You might think this is a heavy monitor, right? MAYBE THAT! However, I have a monitor of exactly the same dimensions and weight, but with a reasonably sized stand. It's even Acer! When purchasing this monitor, make sure you have a large table, a hanging stand, or both.

Picture quality is great!

Wasn't expecting much from this monitor given the price. I was wrong! The picture quality looks so good that even Windows 10 looks good! It looks better than my $600 Dell 27" 4k monitor. It's also very light and quite thin. 4 stars only because the speakers are neither great nor weak.

A hole in the box according to my assessment.

I checked the monitor, it looked ok, but it was a very expensive monitor, it will probably need a little more attention, everything was on the screen side of the box.

Inexpensive good: my rating

This is my center monitor for my racer. Compared to the other two cheaper IPS from the Acer brand, the IPS glow is acceptable or non-existent. For the price I bought it for (cheaper than it is now) it's decently good. This works well for games with their 1ms VRB requirement (can't test this). Good if you're trying to play cheap. Works for my needs but if you need a monitor for graphics work look elsewhere. I can't comment on the stand as I don't use it, but there is VESA support. The frame is a

Dead pixels in my opinion

Got it in the mail very quickly with Prime. Looks great, the box is intact except the screen has a small dead pixel in the middle of the screen, small but still noticeable. I keep finding myself trying to shake it off. I tried looking through the return and replacement options but was unable to replace the same item. Not sure why. All in all, not a bad monitor. Just bad luck on my part.

Good display but terrible speakers

The display is excellent, no complaints. But the speakers are absolutely terrible. The speakers are simply very quiet, even at maximum volume. Either these speakers are defective or they simply have the worst design I have ever come across. And I've tried connecting to different computers and playing audio from different apps and it's the same thing: at best I've been thinking about audio. 15% of what should be. Even when there's no other noises in the house, I struggle to hear the dialogue or…
