Suitable for video or gaming, but not for work

Don't buy this for multitasking. Pixels are not enough to work with Excel or documents, everything is simple: I bought it and returned it because I wanted it for work and performance.

Fantastic monitor. A few notes:

This is a fantastic monitor, looks and feels good and performs well. 1ms response time seems to be true. The size makes games feel like you're in them rather than playing them. I love the size of this monitor. However, I would like to point out two things: โ€ข This monitor is G-Sync COMPATIBLE, but by default the monitor ships with AMD FreeSync disabled in the monitor settings. You must enable it before you see the "Configure G-Sync" option in the Nvidia Control Panel. Once you do that everything

Absolutely worth every penny :)

Its worth it. I looked at the monitors and tried not to lose quality, but at the same time to stay within a reasonable price range. I love this monitor and would highly recommend it for gaming or the office.

Damn amazing! You're welcome

I was very careful with the product as it was a scepter? But fuck it! I was blown away, and yes, it's still practically new, so what! I call it my Killa Excel spreadsheet! I can open my Excel spreadsheets, look to the far right and see all the information there in all clarity! If you're not sure you get it, it took me a month to pull the trigger and I'm so, so glad I did!

Great value for money

Nice plate. I didn't want an extra wide one and it fits perfectly in my office. The games look really good and the refresh rate is good. Image settings are limited, so you must do this in-game or through the software. The speakers are just fine. If you want decent sound, you might need to add a soundbar or some external speakers. Overall, this is a great option and not worth more than $1,000. Would buy again

Bad picture - unreadable text - blurry

The picture quality is very poor, our TV has a better screen. Text is unreadable due to blurring, even when enlarged to fit a text document to the size of the screen, it is difficult to read due to blurring and blurring. The screen color is also turned off, the colors are hidden in all screen modes. VERY VERY DISAPPOINTED Will order a Samsung or LG monitor and this is back!

Works well with Xbox Series S

I am using C40 with Xbox S for MSFS 2020 and KSP. No complaints, sitting 18 inches away in a custom built race car cockpit with HOTAS, steering wheel pedals, keyboard and trackerball, it's a relatively immersive environment compared to a PC running VR. The built-in speakers are rather weak, but sufficient for my needs. Goodbye to the Xbox console.

๐Ÿคฉ Bought a 40 inch monitor

I love it. I ordered a 40" curved monitor for my work monitor. I do a lot of file organization and other important office tasks; always multitasking so I decided to buy this! Going from a 24" monitor to this is a big transition ! At first I was a bit nervous when I opened it because the box was huge. But when I sit down on my desktop and connect to the network, wow! I'm very happy! If you think about it, the 40" version, I would say go for it!

Bad return. Probably typical of a scepter

I'm not sure what's going on on the scepter, but the entire monitor had a huge row of dead pixels in the center of the screen. I would blame Amazon for stocking the monitor but this is the second time I have received a monitor with dead pixels. Save your money and you can get a better monitor from a better brand. The Scepter is cheap, but you get worse than you pay for.

Better than expected.

The monitor is better than expected. HDR is a game changer. The game looks great, I used it for programming. The text looks good and is crisp. I also tested it while playing Fortnite. time really helps. The only complaint is the speaker, it's inferior to a laptop speaker so don't expect to use it too much.

Outstanding picture quality!

I used a 32 inch Zepter TV as a monitor and my wife decided to surprise me with this gift. Whether for movies or games, the image quality is simply outstanding! The tripod is perfectly balanced and much easier to maneuver than my wife's. Dell 38" curved monitor with much better resolution at half the price. Pros: image quality, reliability, and the ability to mount it on a stand or wall. Must have external speakers (which I have, but don't always like to use them). The worst thing is the powerโ€ฆ
