2019-2020 Update Pixio sent me another monitor. I have been blown away with their customer service. I love this thing. I believe the first monitor was not even faulty. I believe it was my own error, but they still sent me another monitor. I highly recommend this monitor if your a hard core gamer. Very satisfied. Older Update-Monitor stopped working for me. Went through every trouble shooting issue I could. Multiple display port/hdmi cables and it is still defective. I have tried everything. I know it is the panel because I have connected it to another computer that has a working monitor and the Pixio stays on a black screen. The blue indicator light says that it is on, but Does not display an image. I have submitted an RMA form to Pixio and will soon update this review again once I have went through the RMA process. I’m a very hardcore gamer. I have used every panel type -TN/IPS/VA I saw this monitor and said “something has to be fishy!” 1st and foremost, if you use an NVIDIA card you will be happy. I know I know, it’s a FreeSync monitor, Nvidia allows non certified monitors to use Gsync. While this may not be “officially” supported it works perfect. Enable FreeSync and then go into Nvidia control panel and enable GSYNC. Smooth as butter with no flickering at all. I also own and use a 27” dell 1440p/144hz Gsync display. Literally could not tell the difference. It is as if the monitor came with Gsync. The monitor is huge and I love that it is not curved. It has no dead pixels and input lag is extremely low. I honestly don’t understand how they can sell this at 299.99 It is 32” and you can use my included pictures as reference. It dwarfs my 27”. Pros - Gsync works perfectly- beautiful VA panel- no dead pixels - comes with a vesa mount- low response time. Seriously stop reading this and buy this monitor! Omg Cons- literally nothing. If you are still reading this you should stop and click add to cart. You will not be disappointed! This is a steal at 299.99. They should sell this for 499.99 because it would still be a bargain! Did I mention this thing is super thin. Did I mention the colors of the VA panel are amazing! Seriously, Pixio has set the bar so high.

Used to connect Xbox etc and it is a great monitor especially for price!

I’ve read all the reviews and was hesitant but I just went for it and got this monitor cuz I needed one. It works fine! Make sure to plug the hdmi or whatever cable you have into the right spot. The settings are easy to control and if you run into any issues, solutions are pretty easy to come across online. It’s a perfect size in my opinion and the quality is nice.

Arrived with no issues, very quick and painless set up. I’ve had no issues in the last ~2 months of daily, 8-15 hour usage. I find it has good color balance, even if it is a little bright in some settings. (Can be easily fixed with a screen dimming program). Only complaint I could have is that I haven’t found any buttons on it at all. Maybe it’s just me missing it, but I haven’t found any power or menu button. It automatically turns on / off when I turn my computer on/off, but would be nice to be able to turn it off while having my computer on.

I bought this along with a new Gaming PC, just so I could have a starter monitor that could utilize some of the GPU features like V-Sync and a higher refresh rate. The preset FPS1 setting is pretty solid, but I should probably fiddle with the settings more for when Im using it to work. Easy to setup, worked right out of the box no dead pixels. Cant beat this price for the specs offered IMO, and will use this until I decide on a beefier gaming panel.

Let me start by saying there is nothing really wrong with the product. Just be aware that if you HAVE to have a 32 1440P monitor and you have to stay within budget, then this monitor will do. Now, I spent a couple of days researching and talking with support to see how to fix the issues I had: 1- Picture was washed out 2- There were auras around bright objects in gameplay, like some flowers in Minecraft 3- The introduction to Assasins Creed which is already heavy photo-negative was an almost full negative effect 4- RedRedemption 2 - the hair (especially beards) were even funkier than they normally are 4 OSD was very quirky After a couple of back and forth between Pixio and EVGA, one saying it was the GPU (GTX 3060 Ti) and the other one blaming the monitor, I took the card out and tested it on my old PC with a 1080P monitor. The picture was clear and the colors vibrant. I put the GPU back in my new build and connected the older 32 LG 1080P monitor with the same results. With this, I KNEW it wasnt the GPU. Sadly there was nothing else the guys at Pixio could do so I decided to return the monitor. I went with a smaller 27 LG (LG-27GL850-B) that I got at Best Buy for around $499. The picture is beautiful, with no auras or ghosting and PnP for G-Sync. Basically what I was expecting when I went from 1080P to 1440P. Of course, the 1ms response helps :)

This may sound trivial but monitor doesnt have an on and off button,for my application that is very inconvenient because i use it in a two monitor system. in order to get best use out of it i have to unplug the power cord to allow my video card to sync my other monitor. I am also not crazy about the one button on screen tuning would have liked to have had a remote with on off and on screen tuning,the button on the back of the monitor is very inconvenient for my setup as i have to resync this monitor often. Just my 2 cents worth but if your getting it for a 2 monitor system i wouldnt recommend it. picture quality is good and refresh is good just the above mentioned inconvenience for me.

This monitor has blown my mind to pieces. The 165hv refresh rate while I’m playing games really is noticeable. The reason why I have given this 4 stars is because the display cable that came with the monitor was complete trash. The screen would go black and would have white specks on it. Besides the faulty cable , the monitor itself is incredible. Flawless color, no tearing or dead pixels. I very highly recommend this monitor for the price. Just make sure you have a spare hdmi cable just in case.

When my friend recommended Pixio to me I was a bit hesitant because of their price tag. However, I bit the bullet and bought the monitor when it was on sale. The picture is crisp and the settings allow for a rather dynamic set of changes. You can also save different profiles into the monitor itself so you can easily have a few different picture modes along side the ones that come standard. The on-screen FPS display is a bit too big for my liking, but its still cool they include the feature. The crosshair is super useful, since it can not only be re-positioned, but theres a few variations on the style too. No more putting a piece of tape on the screen and drawing a dot here, and no need to buy some silly laser-dot string to put on your monitor either. Theres also a timer built into the screen but I havent actually made use of that just yet. All in all, its a great monitor and well worth the money, sale or not. But do pay attention to which model youre buying. The 248 and 248S are almost identical, but the 248S is a bit smaller in height (like 2-4cm or so) and has a higher refresh rate (144hz vs this one at 120).
