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

I was skeptic of Acer, no more, this monitor is hands down the best looking picture I have had in a pc monitor, granted it is not 4k but I dont view 4k content in it, you wont be dissapointed, the power button is a bit weird in where it is at (back of monitor) but other than that excellent value, I might get another one

This is the second one we bought it was a gift for my daughter only complaint is its wobbly we had to fold paper under one of the legs sadly.

The display looks a bit glossy when viewed from the side.

I love everything about this monitor. I was worried about the curved screen but its actually perfect, and its a great size that allows me to use it as if I had dual monitors. Great graphics for gaming and is great for everything else!

Great picture for what I need it for. Nice great for gaming because as images blur at tomes.

I really wanted to love this monitor. I have another ACER 27 1440p monitor (KW272U bmiipx) with very similar specs which I used as a comparison. Asteticly the monitor looks great and love the curved design, but the picture quality was dull and faded. I tried to adjust the color, contrast, and brightness settings, but it just didnt improve the picture quality enough to come close to my other Acer at default settings. I was not sure if these are cheaper panels to help drive the price, but at this price point and a discount offered it was just not worth it for me.

This monitor works great for my home office needs. The design is clean and sleek and doesnt take up much real estate on my desk. The speakers work fine, but dont expect a Bowers & Wilkins audio experience. Even set at its loudest setting, the volume is very low. However, since I dont stream video or music on this computer, its fine. But, I wish it were louder so that I could hear my Skype phone ring from another room. I took away one star for the monitor sound quality. Overall, its a pretty nice monitor for the price.

Worth the money

Not sure if it is a trait of curved monitors, or this particular one... But this thing has a god awful picture sitting next to any other 1080p monitor I have in the house. I will probably give this one away. The physical controls / buttons on the monitor are horrible. Its some weird joystick thing on the back side of the monitor. I only sometimes reach for it for volume, but if you had to navigate the menus or input with this monitors buttons it would be a huge pain. The speaker is facing out the back side of this monitor. This makes no sense and practically makes builtin audio either ear-piercingly loud or ultra quiet / muffled. I created a shroud using a sheet of plastic that hangs over the speakers housing which reflects some sound back to me, its a bit better, but still pretty bad. There is an audio out AUX port which is a probably the best feature of this display. The power supply and plug is not only unique to this monitor, but comes paired with a massive inline power brick that I had to rig up on the back side of my desk since its weight otherwise dangles in midair and pulls on the AC plug connected to the monitor. You can not use a normal cable that 90% of monitors and PC power supplies use. Another terrible choice in design. Display ports are limited. One HDMI, VGA and DVI. So, if you have Display Port cables youll have to get HDMI-to-DP if you need DP on one end. Didnt think this would be a problem when buying, but its been a huge pain. I could do without VGA or DVI in place of a DP. You can probably get VGA and DVI monitors for free or dirt cheap. Not sure why these are still being put on monitors. Adapters exist to step down, stepping up from an old port to a newer port defeats the purpose. You lose all the quality. At least if you adapt to VGA / DVI, you can remove the adapter and gain your quality back. In the long run, an HDMI switch and a DP-to-HDMI cable saved this monitors life in my house. Also, the audio out AUX port helped to fix the terrible builtin speakers (poor quality is mostly due to orientation). But you might need a mile long AUX cable. (Which for whatever reason are a fraction of the price if you buy an AUX extension, instead of an actual dual-sided AUX cable. Buy a shorter AUX cable, plug it into a multi-foot long extension AUX cable. You will save money!)

Bought it to start WFH. works fine. There are times when my desktop background blacks out (my display driver is probably crashing?) Quick fix is to close all my open windows and restart. Doesnt happen so often if I shut off the monitor when Im not using it, shut off the computer completely when Im not using it. I think this is more a problem of my computer and its power/display than of the monitor.
