Sceptre E275B-FPT165 DisplayPort Monitor with FreeSync, Flicker-Free, Frameless Design, and Built-In Speakers. Review

The company has extended my WFH schedule so I still have a few more weeks to work remotely and I thought it was time to buy an extra monitor for my extended screen laptop and hopefully my gaming PC. I was specifically looking for a 4K/QHD monitor as I do a lot of work in Excel so I end up with more higher resolution cells. However, my roommate told me that on a 27-inch screen, resolutions over 1080p don't matter. I think she's right, here I am for the same price as a regular 27" QHD 60Hz…

Let me tell you straight away, I don't gamble. I use this monitor to watch anime, [1080p] movies and YouTube videos. And general use else. I love the monitor. It looks fantastic. I wish the blacks were a little lighter, dark scenes sometimes seem TOO dark. but I guess I just didn't play around with the settings enough. Definitely a great monitor. I'm considering buying a second one to replace my smaller AOC monitor. I've had it for over a year now and I've had no problems with it. **Edit: I…

Got this on a lightning deal and for the price I paid I can live with the annoyances. Pros: 165Hz for gaming (and just for life in general, I can't go back to 60Hz, my eyes won't let me) Borderless 1x dp, 3 HDMI ports (1x 2.0, 2x 1.4) I had no dead pixels ( at the moment) Standard color/brightness control Vesa mount Cheap Cons: The backlight does not shine well (see photo), but is barely noticeable when viewing content. Grab it and find out which button does what. Neutral: The rimless design…

Great monitor. I use it for games and work. If your GPU can support it, you'll see 144Hz with no problem. This monitor has two disadvantages: 1. It does not turn on automatically when you turn on the computer. This monitor is paired with two other AOC monitors and is the only monitor I have to physically turn on when I start PC.2. You cannot switch inputs after the monitor detects the first input. Sometimes I have to jump to my work laptop while sitting on my desktop. My desktop uses the DP…

Bought for vertical use as a third monitor. There were some issues getting the inputs set the way I wanted (I didn't get a signal when connected through an HP laptop dock, to KVM, or to a monitor. Probably an issue with the dock, not the one monitor), so I toggle the manual inputs. I noticed a dead pixel on the monitor I have, which isn't a big deal for me as a third monitor, but if it were my primary gaming monitor it would be more annoying. This is a huge cheap monitor with good frame rates…

I bought 2 Scepter 27 monitors as an upgrade to a 32" Samsung TV I was using. First, the reason for the change was that the 32's were too big for being close to my monitors (around 24-30 inches). low refresh rate, resulting in a lot of screen cracking. After hooking up two new monitors and connecting them with the supplied DP cable, I turned everything on and went to Youtube to test the audio. After playing 9 different songs to test different sound settings, messing around with NVIDIA sound…

Love the screen, bought it on Prime Day for 159.97 instead of the usual 229.97. I would recommend buying if you play any type of games, I've played Ark, Final Fantasy 10/10-2,14,15, Sims 4/3 on it. All the colors look beautiful on it. I strongly recommend waiting for the release. I would never pay $230 for a monitor even though I spend most of my time on the computer. Spent 5-10 hours a day for the past week or so and it's still holding up. Easy to assemble. Easy to change settings. Easy to…

All in all a good buy. not my first product with a scepter. I also have a 75Hz monitor that I still use for gaming in another house. The only issue that I also see as a problem with it is the stand. My 75hz collapsed and I had to buy a third party stand which was much better than the one that came with it. This monitor has a similar stand design: very flexible and made of plastic. I don't see it as long-lasting. But if it breaks. For the price and value I'll just buy another stand for $25…

The picture quality on this monitor is excellent. It has a simple and stylish design that I like. But for me, the speakers are so quiet at full volume that I can't even hear myself playing up close. I wish I had bought this monitor and paid a few bucks more for better speakers. When I tried to set up external speakers it didn't work. I've tried all sorts of settings on console and monitor but nothing. I verified they aren't speakers by testing them on another monitor and everything worked fine…

I had this monitor for a long time, power on this monitor from 144Hz 1ms. it's pretty nice. However, if you're using a PC, I recommend you do your best to plug in a 165Hz cable, and trust me, you thank me. I had no problems with this monitor. I think it's great. Finally, now that I've upgraded my computer, I broke the power cord, I tried using duct tape, but it didn't work. I was wondering if you all know a good cable replacement?

The audio is very low, I can't even hear it with my roofer and ambient noise connected. The product has been returned and I will continue to be billed.

The picture quality is good, but other than that I had countless problems. Save yourself the trouble and please don't buy this.

The monitor is in perfect condition, the only problem is the volume, it's too low, I can't hear anything! Please help! 27 Inches!

1st monitor sent, never arrived. Sent the 2nd worked for 3 months. Now it turns off every 5 minutes. There is a problem with the power cord or the monitor itself and I am unable to obtain a replacement or replacement power cord from Revain because the replacement period has expired. which I have now read other reviews that others have the same problem. Do not buy this monitor.

I don't normally write reviews but this monitor is amazing. Especially if you're usually unlucky with the phrase "too good to be true," well it's definitely too good and it's definitely true. It's such a great monitor, it's crisp, it's fast and at this price point the Specter sells for less I think. In my opinion it's absolutely great, especially if you don't want to spend $400 on a 4k monitor. The best monitor I've ever had.

Bought, has been working for 2 months with no problems. Now the power goes out about every 5 minutes. Not sure if I just have a bad monitor or if the issue is with the brand itself.

On the second day of use, the screen started to fade. Sometimes it would turn on and off for about 10 seconds. Playing alone was the hardest, with the screen turning on and off constantly and sometimes smudges visible on the screen. I was really hoping that maybe it was just a bad product so I asked for an exchange for another one and he did the same thing but worse. Revain customer service couldn't do anything other than issue a refund, which I did.

Good monitor but there is light around the edges. When you have a completely black screen, it's almost unbearable. The picture quality is excellent but because of the glare I want to send it back.

The monitor itself would be great if it weren't for a few stuck green pixels scattered across the screen. It's constantly distracting and annoying. Edit: After about 2 months of use, one side of the monitor darkened badly, completely ruining the monitor. I would suggest looking for something else.

I like the monitor. There is a dead pixel. I've tried the methods I found online to fix the problem but nothing seems to work. I plan to buy another one of these for a dual monitor setup. I'm also worried about having to send it back. It has a lot of backlighting, but the color is nice and the monitor looks really great. I would recommend if you can get a good one
