Nitro by Acer 27 Full HD 1920 x 1080 1500R Curve PC Gaming Monitor | AMD FreeSync Premium | 165Hz Refresh | 1ms (VRB) | ZeroFrame Design | 1 x Display Port 1.4 & 2 x HDMI 2.0 Ports ED270R Mbmiiphx

Needed an extra monitor for video editing and this works great!!!

Great for the series X but if you want anything more I would recommend something better but works great and looks good. If you would like a curved monitor I would recommend as well.

I have been using a 32 60hz Va panel for quite awhile now. Jumping up to 120+ refresh rate and even a curved screen both seemed like solid upgrades to my years-old monitor. This monitor has both, but it comes at such a high price, why would I ever care. The ghosting is so bad that games are unplayable on it. I tried everything I could think of or find suggested on the net. I tried windows and gpu settings, I tried different cables on different ports (monitor and gpu). I went through settings on the monitor in fine detail (not a whole lot of options affecting overdrive and the like there). This monitor literally had such bad ghosting that if you didnt know the game, you might briefly think it was a stylized, artistic choice to blur all the motion on screen. I contacted Acer. They eventually responded to say, no there shouldnt be ghosting like that Some forum research also suggested these might be a panel lottery situation where some were better than others in this respect. No problem then. Amazon has a generous holiday-time return policy. I will just replace it with working example. My second Acer monitor arrived and.... The exact same issues!!! I even tried it with a different computer and the supplied cables, just to be sure. No change. I am getting a refund now, even though I will be one step closer to the nebulous too many returns, so your account is cancelled wall. I cannot imagine anyone being happy with this monitor. Even for non-gaming, the color rendition was poor as was text clarity on both monitors. I see positive reviews out there, leaving me to scratch my head in confusion. Maybe I lost the panel lottery twice in a row, but I will look elsewhere and recommend you do the same.

What I mean by that is that Im not nor will I proclaim to be, some professional in the field of gaming displays. I have however been playing on an old school vizio 1080p 60hz tv for 9 years. I bought this because I received advice from friends that I desperately needed a display upgrade and that they recommended a monitor with a high refresh rate preferably 120hz and a low response time. So I found this and it came today. Right off the bat the packaging was fantastic, there wasnt a trillion little pieces that were a pain in the ass to install, the stand to my knowledge feels like pure metal and is extremely sturdy and the best part??? It CAME with a 165hz ready displayport cable! I hooked this sucker up and immediately noticed the difference, I mean seriously no doubt I could literally tell the difference in overall quality and gameplay instantaneously. Very seldom has an item taken my breath away over the sheer quality but this very much so did. Now dont misunderstand me, if you have more money OBVIOUSLY theres better products with better image quality but for 179.99 I truly believe I got away with theft. I am so beyond pleased at this product. I reckon my only complaint would be the speakers but who in the blue hell even uses though for pc gaming..lol I definitely without a shadow of doubt recommend this to anyone looking to amp up their pc gaming experience. Its just so good... P.S the friggin screwdriver that comes with it is a bossssssss

This 144hz VA 1920x1080 monitor is great for everything a gamer and productivity user would need. The colors are great, the angles are okay, and the build of the monitor just is the icing on the cake. This monitor measures in at 2 feet long and 1 1/2 feet tall, it has great port selection that includes, HDMI2.0, DVI, and Display Port along with a audio jack. The curv on the monitor can really only be noticed when your first get the monitor. The bezels *end of LCD basically* measure in at around 4mm on the top and sides. The monitors bottom bezel is this amazing flat black with a silver acer logo, but the back is plastic. This monitor supports a vesa mount and comes with a nice but slightly disappointing stand. Id recommend this monitor for sure! The only downsides i see to my monitor is this slight goasting effect on the edges of the display. PS if your stuck on a TN or VA screen get a VA screen. TN has terrible viewing angles as bad as some phones i had in the early 2000s. **2018 update** I have been using this monitor for almost a full year now and i have to say its one of the best monitors i have owned, there are some gripes i have with the display panel itself and some weird ui and software limitations i dislike but truthfully overall this monitor is an amazing purchase for those of you on a budget. The downsides of this monitor are limited but they still are noticeable things such as light bleed around the edges and yellowing to the right side of the display. The glossy plastic on the back of the display is just a fingerprint magnet and scratches easier then anything i have.

i have failing eyes it still is ok.. just it dosent have great speakers,, but thats not what its for rnd the price was cool. and acer came a long way.

I had been shopping and comparing features and qualities for a gaming monitor for about 6 months – I wanted: 27” to 32”, curved, 4K and hi-refresh rate – there are a few to compare and size up at those specs – once I understood the panel types (IPS, VA and TN), free-sync and all that, I knew what to look for and at what price – The monitors amazon carried, that I liked, are: a couple of MSI models, Acer, Sceptre, BenQ just to name a few – since this is my first BIG, late model gaming monitor, refresh rate was important – also quality and resolution – then price – here’s what I found: a lot of comparable features from known brands – and varied pricing – I decided not to go with 4K since refresh was nominal 60 hz and any faster was way expensive – so, I decided to go with 2K and 144 hz – once I carefully considered my space and proximity, 27” would be excellent (it’s actually huge) – so with that, I narrowed the field to Acer, Sceptre and MSI (specs and price) - Having read the reviews, all 3 were rated 4 stars by hundreds of buyers - The MSI models were not sold thru amazon prime and would take over a week to arrive, and they’re kinda pricy (rgb and other fancies) – the Sceptre was over $70 more than the Acer, with all the same specs – so, I chose the Acer ED273 – the most recent reviews said the Acer was a very good choice and I agreed that this has the best features and value – I was right! This is a great monitor, it was ready to play right out of the box and, overall, it has exceeded my expectations – Here’s a few things of interest: build quality, excellent - overall aesthetics: thin bezel, slim design (no big bulges), nice finish, flat matt screen, just right curve, excellent picture quality – the stand is heavy with a metal base and reinforced vertical post and mount (vesa 100) – My only gripe would be the separate power brick – but for the price, I’m OK with it – the port sockets are located center-back facing down – this makes it difficult to find and insert the video and power connectors – you’ll also get an HDMI and DP cable each – tried as I might, I couldn’t find any info on cable length (my desktop setup requires a longer cable, at least 6’), so instead of ordering a longer cable, I’d wait and see if the shipped cables would work – they didn’t – they are about 4’ long – a little short for me – so I used a 6’ HDMI cable I had laying around until I received an ordered 6’ DP cable from prime (about $10) – on HDMI the refresh is capped at 120 hz – with the DP cable I’m now using, refresh is the full 144 hz – So, overall, I’m very happy with the Acer ED273 – quality, features and price combine to make this an excellent buy – it comes packaged double boxed and incapsulated in foam, plastic film and protective cloth - 5 stars!

This monitor blows away any other screen I have in the house. I cant believe the increase in contrast from my last 27 display which is now in the workout room used for Netflix. Im getting 165Hz over an HDMI 2.0 port with no issues. Im not sure I can see 165Hz, but I can see the difference between 60Hz, 90Hz and 120Hz after 120hz I dont think I can tell as it goes higher :). My only grip with the display are the control buttons under the middle bottom being hard to reach. The included speakers are actually pretty loud much better than expected.

Ive been gaming on a TV monitor (max 60hz) for about 2 or 3 years. I see a major improvement with this monitor as well as it was super easy to assemble. Comes with an hdmi cord as well
