Acer Nitro ED240Q Sbiip 23.6 Full HD 1920 x 1080 VA 1500R Curved Gaming Monitor | AMD FreeSync Premium | 165Hz Refresh Rate | 1ms (VRB) | ZeroFrame Design | 1 x Display Port 1.4 & 2 x HDMI 2.0 Ports

Bought this to enhance my work-at-home setup, replacing a 24 flat Acer that will get repurposed in another room. PROS: * Monitor was packaged well and started up with no dead pixels. * Setup was super easy -- one screw connects the base to the monitor bracket, and the bracket snaps into the back of the monitor. * Overall, picture quality is good for the price. * At 3W, speakers put out considerably more volume than other monitors (the Acer it replaces had 2W speakers with very weak sound). * Comes with a handy set of cables (except DVI...not even an adapter?). * White/chrome style looks clean and modern sitting on our kitchen desk. * Did I mention its curved?? CONS: * Packaging leaves no confusion as to whats inside -- fortunately I was able to claim it off the front porch before anyone passing by got greedy. * Ports are kind of tucked up and in, which make connection kind of tricky. * Comes with a single rocker/push button for control that is easy to turn on, but has to be held 12 forevers before it turns off. * Brightness seems just a touch uneven across the width of the screen. Overall, Im happy with the purchase and would recommend.

I’ve been upgrading my gaming setup recently from buying a new chair l, a new controller and a monitor. I play on Xbox and to my surprise apparently this monitor supports 4k at 60 fps despite no mention of it in the description despite whether this is a mistake or not I was surprised about how amazing this monitor is at the price. The high refresh rate and 1 ms response time is amazing for games like r6 and apex which I play. I would highly recommend this monitor for anyone looking to step up their gaming setup!

I originally bought this monitor to replace the setup that I had originally. Ive had it for over a year and havent had many problems. The only thing that I DONT like about this monitor is that it is permanently stuck at 60hz refresh rate despite it being advertised as a 75hz monitor. Not a big deal really because I have other monitors that are actually 75hz and I personally cant tell the difference between 60 and 75. I never used the stand so I cant comment on its build quality; If a monitor has a VESA and youre not overly restricted on space you should always use it in my opinion. tl;dr Good build quality good picture Still running strong after a year of usage at 8+ hours a day NOT 75hz as advertised monitor menu has VERY little customization and half the option cant actually be selected Installing the VESA was a little more difficult than normal

Really liking this monitor, just hard to get used to so big of a screen for a monitor, 27. Is great if I want to watch a movie. I dont do gaming, so no rating on that.

Pros: 144hz for cheap Loving the curve Pretty good picture Cons: The material on back is a dust and fur magnet Theres no option to turn it off with button on back

I bought this monitor because my last one broke out of no where. I was anticipating the same problem to occur again with this monitor but its exceeded my expectations. It has a very nice display to games on. Although the edges are a little bit thicker than my previous one I still find it easy to ignore it. No dead pixels as ive seen others complain about that. Overall a really good gaming monitor for the price

I like the 144 refresh rate and was good price while on sale. However I will still dock a point because of the unadjustable stand which may not be an issue for some but if you are trying to manage your space and layout the location of the power and input cords can be a little annoying.

I almost didnt buy this based on the few reviews available (a few of them critical) but I really wanted a more sleek model that matched an Apple Macbook so I decided to go ahead and purchase and return it if I had any problems. Ive had it for A few days running non-stop and so far I am really happy with the purchase. The color and quality are great for the price and the material is made out of is surprisingly sturdy and sleek. If it continues performing this way, I will purchase a second monitor at the end of the month, so I can work on dual screens. UPDATE: Just ordered a second monitor. The more I used the curved screens the more I love them. For some reason, I experience less eye strain, using the curved screen when taking on projects that require 12-hour design stints. When I first saw of the curved screen concept I was skeptical but I am a believer now.

The 4ms response time may seem very reliable, but if youre running games at 100+ fps (ESPECIALLY FPS GAMES), you may struggle landing your shots and you will definitely notice that it wasnt necessarily your fault. Compared to my 1ms monitor, I just cant believe I used this for such a long time. The screen does not handle reflections well. In fact, it handles it very poorly. If my phone screen lights up on my desk, the picture quality is impacted. God forbid I have any lights on in my room. The curve is a harmful gimmick. Puts another obstacle in trying to accurately judge shots. There is a strange blur effect when you move a camera quickly or the screen displays any sort of motion. Its particularly noticeable with vibrant colors. Its a sort of bleeding effect. Makes it more difficult to hit shots. If you use Windows, the task bar will leave permanent impressions on the screen. Extremely noticeable while the screen goes black. Dark rooms or loading screens will always remind you that your monitor leaves much to desire. Decent monitor for casual gaming. For anything more than that, you absolutely must get a better monitor. ESPECIALLY if youre trying to match your framerate with the 144hz refresh rate. I would not recommend this monitor to any of my friends.

I am using this in my recording studio for the computer-based elements of the studio. Works great with this nice bright display, putting to shame the older 26 display next to it. The only thing I dont like is the display stand, which has a curved highly-polished aluminum look to it. This is distracting. To fix that, I used a long piece of black electrical tape that happens to fit the front of the stand perfectly and looks like it is now part of the design, which is to say, that stand now disappears from sight.
