Sceptre IPS 27 LED Gaming Monitor 1920 x 1080p 75Hz 99% sRGB 320 Lux HDMI x2 VGA Build-in Speakers, FPS-RTS Machine Black (E278W-FPT series)

First let me say that this is a computer monitor, not a sound system. Ive never depended on a monitor for good sound since the old days of video monitors. If you want great sound you had to buy a sound card and some speakers. These days all you have to do is buy some speakers and plug them into your computer and get reasonably good sound. So, Im not reviewing the sound. This is a computer monitor I bought this monitor because my ten year old computer died and I thought it would be a good idea to buy a new one instead of a new drive for the old one. Great move, new computer had an SSD drive and boots so much faster. However, it didnt work well with my old thirty-five inch flat screen TV, lots of overscan and no possible way to adjust it, either in the TV or the computer. So it was time for a new monitor. Granted twenty-seven inch is a step down from thirty-five inch, but this monitor worked perfectly right out of the box. Plugged in the power, plugged in the HDMI, turned it on and my Windows desktop was shown in full, no more overscan! I was upset that the angle of the stand had the computer tilted toward me at about a five degree angle. But Im an idiot, its been a tough week. After re-reading the description I grabbed the sides of the monitor and tilted it up to the perfect viewing angle. Id completely forgot that one of the selling points on this monitor was the adjustable stand. SO HAPPY NOW! For less than $150 this is a great monitor. Sharp and clear, easy to read, and nice colors.

This monitor is reasonably priced and has a great picture. It gets the job done.

I have been looking at all sorts of models to replace the three Sceptre 22” monitors on my desk. When I found these 27” ones, I was sold. So glad I did! Great color, great resolution, and for the price, you cannot beat it!

I use this monitor during the day working from home and at night I use it for gaming. Handled both very well. I like the control of brightness and color and the speed is top of the line

The screen is nice, colors arent bad (no true black) but the sound is so quiet and muffled its near impossible to hear.

We bought this monitor so that we can expand the number of work stations at home since everyone is working from home and kids are distancing learning. The first thing I noticed when we turned it on is that the screen is not very clear. It has a glare free covering in it which is fine but when my daughter brings up pictures for her photo editing, it’s clearly not very clear for graphics. Yes, this is listed as a business monitor but I was thinking maybe that meant the refresh rate is not like a gaming monitor. But when my wife used it for work she noticed right away that it isn’t very clear. The glare free screen kind of takes away the brightness too. One thing I was kind of disappointed in is that there are only HDMI ports. I would think at this point in our technology world all monitors would come with HDMI and DisplayPort. But again, maybe because this isn’t supposed to be a graphics intensive monitor. The last negative I would say about this monitor is that it has a pedestal stand so there is only one leg in the middle. This monitor is big so with one leg, the monitor rocks constantly. Every bump of the table, high intensity clicks of the keyboard, a lot of mouse movement, it made the monitor rock and sway a lot. It just seemed cheap and on the verge of falling down. If you will use a mount then that would solve the problem but it’s just not as good of a monitor that I was hoping for.

These monitors really helped with my working from home productivity and I highly recommend them. The price was good for what I got but I did get two of these on Prime Day for a discount. I have a 2015 MacBook Pro and it works with these perfectly via cables that plug into my Thunderbolt ports (purchased the cable separately). Assembly does take a few minutes in terms of putting together the stand, but overall it is easy to do, and pretty much plug and play - just make sure you have the right cables. These monitors would honestly make a great TV replacement if you want to play movies on your computer, because theyre pretty much the size of a small TV and they look great - as someone who has watched Netflix on them occasionally. I will say they are a bit flimsy and wobbly if you bump them, so put them somewhere you wont bump them around too much to be safe. Also, measure your desk because they are wide! No complaints here though - the screen real estate that these provide is excellent. I have used these for coding and Web browsing but Im not a gamer, so I cant speak to their gaming performance.

Great price and beautiful display.

It’s great!
