Sceptre 27-Inch FHD LED Gaming Monitor 75Hz 2X HDMI VGA Build-in Speakers, Ultra Slim Metal Black

So my work computer is my notebook and when Im at home I prefer to have it hooked to my monitor desktop monitor and rely on multi-channel peripherals, so switching between work and play is somewhat seamless. Thats the background. So I dont have a lot of experience with desktop monitors (this is my second in about 3 years and the one I had before this was a cathode-ray monitor hooked up to my Windows Vista desktop) so you can take everything I say about picture, size, etc well salted. That being said, I actually love this thing. Its a little on the large side for my tiny cubby of a desk, but its great. The picture quality is great. I love playing video on it, all that good stuff. Also, having two HDMI connectors does not hurt when youre switching between screens. The bevel size is an improvement on my old monitor, but it comes with the drawbacks. The buttons for the monitor are located on the back, which is a design protocol that I hate, and always have hated, but that is neither here nor there. My problem is that markings on the front of the bevel, denoting which button is which, are nigh invisible. I can only see them if I move my body so that its at a certain angle and I am staring straight at them. As such I prefer to go by feel, and I usually get it right. Switching between screens could be easier, and cant be done in less than three button pushes. It is stable: Ive only had the screen crash once switching between my desktop and my laptop, and its a lot easier to reset the connection when its and HDMI cable as opposed to a DVI. All in all the negatives are minor for me, but I guess worth taking a star off. Still, I would recommend this if youre in the market for a cheap monitor.

Literally. You get what you pay for. This is a 27 screen with relatively thin bezels, good screen quality, and absolutely easy to set up. Its a hundred dollars people, dont go ordering and expect to receive some top of the line LG/Samsung smart monitor quality type of build. Know what youre buying. Its a hundred dollar monitor. Sure, the stand/base is made of very thin plastic and does not seem uber durable, but if youre a normal person who keeps it on a stable desk (even better, wall-mount it) and doesnt have much trouble toppling the whole desk over, not much of a problem. Audio is definitely low tier for sure, but I use headphones/soundbar so it doesnt bother me. Buttons on the back are not so easy to navigate but give it a week, you wont even notice it. Right most for power, second right most of source change, and left most for settings. Figured it out in 30 mins and have had no issues with it since. Easy quick plug in and play. Comes with an HDMI cable and product manual. No dead pixels, no scratches, no issues. Again, for a ONE HUNDRED dollar monitor, not much to complain about. Cheers to Spectre. Great deal right here.

Connected to the VGA port the view is to bright if you dimmed down the view becomes not clear I did everything I could on the monitor setting and on windows setting but still not fixing the problem On HDMI the view is great

I bought three of these from my desktop at work and the clarity is great resolution works for me. The only thing I haven’t figured out is how to make all the speakers work at the same time

No stretch res or anything and speakers are terrible

Sceptre Flat screen monitor The quality of these screens are amazing considering the price of them. They work perfectly as the additional monitors within my multi-monitor setup. I bought 3! 5 Stars! Hope you find this review and pictures helpful!

I bought two of these monitors and so far NO PROBLEM AT ALL! They looks super nice and clean image. Image quality is awesome, refresh rate is great specially if you will play games up to 60hz. No dead pixels and no damage at all. The mount they have included is very sturdy and they are also compatible with other mounts. The only downside is the audio quality which is BAD but in my case it does not matter because I have external speakers and headphones. I believe this is a GREAT deal for the price and if you are looking for a budget monitor, this is the way to go. 100% recommended.

The monitor is great for the price point. I wasn’t expecting anything spectacular considering it is not a 4/5k monitor. If you need a monitor for standard computer work this will fit your needs. What the monitor exceeds at is it refresh rate when it comes to gaming. I moved my PS4 into my bedroom because I work from home, but I’m going to keep it in my room because the quality of gaming on this is where it excels. The only two down sides I have is build quality and sound. It’s pretty flimsy, but for less than $150 that’s expected. The real and only issue I have with this monitor is the speakers. They lack depth and leave you wanting more. You will definitely need to buy external speakers or use headphones. Overall I would purchase this product again if I needed a second display or replacement.

Decent monitor for the price but had to send back. Had a stuck pixel in the center of the screen that is very noticeable on a white screen. Buttons being on the back of the monitor are an odd placement and have to blindly press around to adjust monitor settings or turn monitor off. Stand is very wobbly left to right . Being a 1080p on a 27 picture quality isnt very crisp. No Display Port connection if you have a newer graphics card that supports it. The on board speakers are very tinny and not even usable.

I bought this to use as an external monitor for my MacBook Pro and am disappointed. I wasnt expecting the resolution of an apple studio display, but the display quality on this Sceptre monitor is really poor. Text appears grainy and difficult to read and the ghosting even with the anti ghosting / gaming features turned on is awful. I bought this because I dont really do any gaming and just needed a larger display to setup on my desk to use my slicing softwares for 3d printing. Im using Lychee to place supports on models and the graininess of this makes it kind of painful on your eyes to place supports with precision unless you zoom WAY in. The brightness is fine and is comfortable to look at. It has a night shift type of feature built in, but you have to change this manually and it wont automatically switch when your computer switches and there is no ambient light detection to help it either. The speakers built into this monitor are exactly what you would expect for speakers built into a 100 dollar monitor. Theyll work in a pinch but this is not something you want to expose your ears to for a long period of time, unless youre okay with a low volume tinny output. The ports available to use on this monitor are great as well, but not of enough of a plus to outweigh the cons of its primary function as a display. Lastly, the stand included with the monitor is flimsy and on a super sturdy table top that doesnt have any give or movement, the stand on this monitor still wobbles at the slightest vibration. Reminds me of a jello mold the entire time Im using it. Overall, super disappointed with this display and I may repurpose it for use in my garage to play some workout videos off of a Roku or an Apple TV.
