Pros: 144hz Monitor 1080p Display Works Great with whatever you put on it, works great with PS4/5, Xbox One/Series X/S, PC, Nintendo Switch. Looks great with my setup. Cons: Brightness settings don’t help very much, brightness isn’t horrible but could be better Sometimes Ports don’t work, have to unplug and plug display cables back in After 3 weeks of use one of my pixels turned red, it’s small and barely noticeable but definitely concerning.

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

The colors aren’t the same for the same exact monitor but different Hz. I was going to make this my main monitor but the colors are off from the other which the colors on that one is really really vivid but this one is dull. You’ll have to find someone to match the quality’s professionally.

If you are going to use a monitor stand, you should know that this monitor has the attachment in the lower part of the monitor. To better explain: Imagine a rectangle representing the monitor. In the bottom-center area, draw a comparable smaller rectangle. On each corner of this smaller rectangle is where you would fasten screws to use a monitor stand, meaning that the monitor might seems to be too elevated than expected.

This monitor can get very bright, has great saturation with its IPS display, and the back of the monitor has a nice modern look. For gaming, it is definitely enough for me with its 144hz display. Furthermore, the 1ms response time is a great plus,, especially when you consider how much less common the feature is with IPS monitors. The only issue though is that even though it is advertised as g-sync compatible (which it needs the DP cable for), it has not been tested by Nvidia and therefore does have some issue with certain games when g-sync is enabled in the Nvidia Control Panel. However, I am overall very happy with this monitor and the great price that I got it for of $170.

So I took a chance and ordered this pixio monitor based off a good reviews I had seen. When the monitor arrived, to say the least I was not disappointed. The picture quality is great (far better than a tn panel) and the price is unbeatable for the specs you get. However, I did have an issue with the stand being loose even with all the mounting bolts tightened down. So rather than return to amazon I reached out to pixio and explained the issue. I received a personalized (not an auto) email response in less than 24 hours. The representative immediately offered a replacement stand and asked that I register my product and fill out a simple rma form. After I submitted my forms I then received confirmation that my item would be shipped, but to my surprise I received the replacement stand the very next day. I have since installed the new stand which resolved all issues with the previous one. Dealing with pixio is hands down the best and easiest customer service experience I’ve had. I now have faith that if something is to go wrong in the future that pixio will stand by their warranty. If your reading this review and are hesitant to try a pixio, don’t be. Let my testimony help you make the right decision. There are other similar panels on the market from more well known companies, but most have tn panels/less features and are more expensive. The Pixio monitors truly represent a great value in the market. If I need a second monitor down the line pixio will be what I get.

Great monitor, but it comes with a frustratingly short power cable. You might want to buy a longer one. You should also pony up and buy a high quality power cable (from a legit brand such as PWR) so your monitor doesnt get fried. Specs for your power supply cable (output): 12V, 3A, positive polarity. For current (3A), so long as the power cables voltage (12V) matches the above, then it wont matter if the rated current is higher. For example, I purchased a 12V, 5A power cable. It also doesnt quite matter if the model / specific device matches, either. If the above matches, then you could use the power supply for a toaster and it wouldnt matter. I went with this 12-foot cable: https://smile.amazon.com/12V-Adapter-AOC-LED-Monitor/dp/B07ZWBW996/

Ok so the first thing I want to get out of the way is, the monitor has to be tweaked a bit when first using it out of the box. You can use it right away out of the box no problem but you probably want to fidget a bit with the settings because text looks a little blurry and if you have a Freesync compatible GPU then obviously you want to enable that. Also you have to manually set the refresh rate to 144Hz in the display settings but I think you have to do this with all monitors. Anyways for the most part, this monitor definitely has a good price to performance. Being a highschooler that has no job and in this crazy year of 2020, I was still able to afford it.

Looks great and a great monitor. Only issue I have with it, is that it has no power button you have to unplug it from the monitor. UPDATE: 5/20/23 The monitor screen keeps shutting off, I dont know if its the display port or the monitor yet.

I got this monitor because it is FLAT and supposedly works with G Sync. With the included DP cable, G Sync appears to work just fine with my RTX 2070. The Nvidia control panel says the monitor is not certified g sync compatible, but it still allows you to enable and it works well. Games are buttery smooth and input lag is basically non existent. Im quite satisfied with the colors right out of the box and found no need to adjust for the most part. Only thing I changed was enabling the Low Blue Light setting to Low (options are L, M, H). Freesync also isnt enabled by default on the monitor, so you need to enable that yourself quickly. Ive seen complaints on the brightness of the monitor, but mine is more than bright enough in my office that gets plenty of natural light from a large window right next to my desk. $300 well spent! Two big time gripes for this monitor after using it for a couple weeks. - First, once the monitor goes to sleep after it loses signal, there appears to be no way of waking it back up unless you hold the power button to turn it off, then turn it back on. This is a problem for me because I have this monitor connected to two computers (my personal gaming desktop and my work laptop). If I turn one computer off and the monitor goes to sleep, I cant wake it back up to switch the input to the other. - That brings me to my next issue. Theres no quick way of switching inputs. You need to dig through the OSD menu to get to the source switch. I go back and forth between inputs regularly, so I find this very annoying. So annoying that Im currently looking into some sort of displayport switch to avoid it altogether. Update: returned it just before the end of the return period. The two nuisances mentioned above ended up being deal breakers for me. Returned and got an LG 32GK650F-B for the exact same price (Micro Center). Much better OSD, fully articulating stand.
