Only one dead pixel when opening, otherwise not bad for the price.

I bought this monitor specifically for my new computer I was building and I've had it for a month now and it works great. The only downside was a dead pixel that I noticed when I first turned it on. But the pixel is in the top corner, so it doesn't bother me at all.

Good gaming monitor

I bought about a week ago and it came with no problems. Picture quality and brightness are excellent but could definitely be better as I've had an Acer before and it's better. A curved monitor is great for gaming as it gives you a wider field of view. The 144Hz refresh rate is amazing, I've noticed an increase in frame rates in games, and it's great for video and streaming too. I recommend this update to anyone with a 60Hz monitor. Just make sure you're using the specified DP cable and change…

Good presentation! to my rating.

I would like to thank the courier for the delivery. She could have left it somewhere, but she made sure I had it in my arms. And she was very polite. Thanks! I like this ad a lot. Some reviews say it only runs at 120hz, but I run at 144hz on a GTX 1070 with no issues. The screen is nice and sharp. Everything is fine with colors and scale. While it's not great, it has built-in speakers and is very light. Overall I'm very happy with this display, especially at this price point. I would give it 5…

good for starters good for me

There was, but it worked at a speed of 3 ms, the quality was not the best either, but very good. The sound is certainly not the best, but good enough.

Good monitors in my opinion

I bought 2nd 4 years ago. These are decent monitors. 1 has an intermittent problem with horizontal stripes at the bottom of the screen, but it goes away after a few minutes. But not bad for a 4 year old.

Amazing monitor at an amazing price!

I love this monitor! I just bought this monitor a week ago and believe me it's probably one of the best gaming monitors at such a good price if you're on a budget or looking for an above average monitor. I also like how it arrived ahead of the day it was supposed to be delivered which was good. The packaging looked good and didn't look wrinkled. The stand is made of metal, I love sturdy stands and the curve is just perfect. It has great pictures that you make the right settings for it yourself.

Great monitor but dead pixels

I've had this monitor for almost a year and a half. An excellent gaming monitor that runs well at 144Hz in just about any game you can play. However, the pixels at the bottom of the screen no longer work. I'm not talking about one or two rows of pixels. I'm talking about the bottom inch of the screen only working half the time. It would be nice to replace it or consider other monitors. In general, for the year and a half I've had, 5 stars. But dead pixels really brought it up to 3.

Cracked screen: my review

I ordered two of these and noticed during installation that one of them had a cracked screen. I am currently working on a return process. The one that didn't have a tear is fine and it would have been a 5 star rating if both had arrived intact. After reading reviews of cracked screens I was wary of ordering them but having over 20 years of experience with very fragile hardware I wasn't worried about installing them. Despite all the precautions (handling only on the edges, taking it out in the…

AMAZING don't think just buy this.

My sister recommended the scepter! I have a really amazing computer and it's an amazing monitor, I've checked other reviews and I'm definitely getting over 140fps so I don't know what's wrong with them but mine works great it's so beautiful and clear. I say buy. I just bought another one soooo ☺️ It's definitely worth it

Very clear and bright monitor.

I've been waiting to write this review for the monitor to go through the steps. It's about 12-16 hours a day and it's been like that for the past few months. Everything works just as well as the day I received it. I haven't noticed any issues and the color and image are still bright and clear. So far it has zero cons. There were no breaks, no halos, nothing. He does what he advertised. The game I bought it for is finally out too. Now the actual test begins. Cyberpunk 2077.

Great monitor, great value

Great monitor, just remember to adjust the settings you want, it's a little dim. Also comes with a display cable and a screwdriver to set everything up. Has great picture quality, use 2 of these with my rtx3070 build and I am more than happy with the monitor

Couldn't be happier!

I've never used a curved monitor and I'm not sure I'd be as happy with a flat monitor. It's the clearest monitor I've ever used, and the 24-inch size was perfect for my desktop. My PC doesn't have a DisplayPort but the screen looks really good and I can still get a full 144Hz over HDMI. I even bought a 20 inch scepter so I can have two monitors. Although one is flat, it still looks very nice. Now I like my setup even better!

The monitor is fine.

The monitor is fine, sometimes when I turn on the computer, the monitor doesn't turn on, the power light flashes blue, and I have to restart the computer for it to work. The curve is nice, looks like a more expensive monitor, the stand is not very good. However, you can install it on a third-party mount.

quality and availability

Build quality, performance and affordability are usually incompatible, but in this case they are. The monitor is simply great and well made for a small price. Setup was quick and it paired with my Dell XPS with no issues. I'm not a big gamer, but the few real-time games I play look fantastic. My experience was great.

It's amazing in my rating.

If this monitor is in your budget all I have to say is go ahead and buy it. Unlike other monitors I've bought, this monitor has a deep color input that makes my game so much better without taxing my GPU and also playing on a curved field of view looks so good I give it a 10/ rate 10

Gaming monitor in all its glory.

You really can't find a better monitor for the price. I have a 24 inch curved monitor alongside this monitor and they look great together. The other one I paid over $300 for was budget friendly and has better picture quality. All my games run at 144hz. Mine was shipped quickly. It sat outside in a puddle, undamaged, not a pixel damaged from what I read in the reviews. I've also owned this monitor for over a month and it's still working with no sign of any major issues. The only problems it has…

Excellent but ripped after a month. sad news

Great monitor for gaming. Unfortunately, after 1 month of use and how much you use the monitor on the table, the monitor accidentally cracked. Weird thing, now unusable and a shame because my kid bought it with his own money. There are no cracks, the temperature is the same with me day / night. Otherwise a great monitor.

Such an incredible screen at the right price

I got this screen about a month ago and it was incredibly awesome! It is very easy to install the desktop screen mount. I love the curved screen, it helps me a lot compared to the flat screen because you feel like you can see every spec and it's a lot easier on my eyes. Also, I have it on a very small table and it almost wraps around the table! 144hz on screen is also incredibly good, I can really see the difference between 60hz and 144hz, it's very smooth. I highly recommend my colleague to…

Best return on your money

I bought it along with my newly built Ryzen computer 2.5 months ago and it's been amazing so far. Especially for the price. I sometimes use it for my PS4 too. I leave them both connected (PS4 - HDMI, PC - DP). It automatically selects which input is powered, or if both are on there's an input select button on the monitor - very handy. I never knew what I was missing at 144Hz and FreeSync is a velvety smooth icing on the cake. I was surprised that the stand is actually metal which makes it look…
