> 3 dayFor just over a hundred bucks these are the best monitors Ive used. You get a nice bit of gear here for not a lot of money. Pros; +Cost is lower than low +Build of monitor itself is great (Ill mention the stand in the cons below) +has AMD Freesync +75Hz is not bad for people that dont need to go nuts with gaming. I play casually and dont want to spend a lot for a feature I dont need. +Has vesa mounts built in to the monitor, Very convenient (especially at this price) +Fast shipping, with NO dead pixels(I bought 2 for myself, and a third for a friend, and had no damage whatsoever). People writing bad reviews mustve gotten unlucky I suppose. +Bezels are surprisingly very discrete. +27 inches of screen are the sweet spot for me, any bigger and youre turning your head to look. Any smaller and you run out of space to work with. Cons; -The stand is awful, wobbly as heck, but if you have a sturdy desk, or plan to mount them its not even an issue. -5ms response is a bit lackluster with all the rest of the features it has, but for the price I Still cant complain. -Not really sure why they have a vga input instead of a Dvi input... I havent used vga in over a decade. But glad they included two Hdmis to make up for it. -screen bleeds quite a bit when black, but I personally dont care but its a con to most so Im including it. -Dont use the built in speakers unless you have too, they are exactly how bad youd expect. I tested them just for kicks. No bueno. Overall this is is worth the money, chances are if youre looking at budget monitors, you dont truly need anything more. This will work for everyday use. From basic photo editing, gaming, and watching movies, to just having a bigger screen for all your tasks. Either way. I like it. Hope this helps!

> 3 dayPros: Huge! Matte screen lots of inputs. Slim bezel, Mine came with a DVI to HDMI cable, no HDMI Cons: Buttons on the back. Power adapter is a wall-wart. Stand a bit wobbly My biggest issue with this monitor is the buttons being located on the back. If using multiple of these ( I have 2 side-by-side in landscape) the buttons are a pain in the ass to use. I use one as dual purpose for a PC and RPI. To switch inputs is an exercise in contortion if you use the left monitor as I do. I would have preferred them on the bottom edge but I have the feeling this was done so these screen could mounted in portrait with multiple monitors. If the buttons had be arrange horizontally instead of vertical this would be less of an issue. The power brick that comes with these monitors is the wall-wart kind where the plugs are on the brick. I would have liked to see a brick with a short pig tail like a laptop brick so less outlet space is taken up. the cable is plenty long enough however. The stand was super easy to attach and in the future I expect it to be just as easy to remove should I need to. However it is a bit wobbly at the point where the stand attaches to the monitor. Though I attribute that to it being such a large monitor and there will be some flex no matter what. It is by no means excessive. Some day I may buy monitor arm so its great that there is a vesa mount option. I so far I love these monitors. The brushed look and matte screen make them look very clean. For anyone concerned they would look very smart in a business setting. These are the first screens Ive bought brand new for personal use and I have no complaints. I use my PC for coding, 3D CAD, Wed surfing, movies/Youtube and some light gaming and everything looks great. They are supper bright. I may attempt to do a color calibrating but Overall Im happy with the current setting. I did change to the Movie setting with bluelight shift 30%

> 3 dayBest bang for the buck at this size. Played COD: MW2 on this and could barely tell a difference compared to my BENQ Gaming monitors. Speaker sound isnt the greatest, but most people use external speakers or headsets these days.

> 3 dayI bought this screen about 4 years ago, and I must admit I am impressed. It still is awesome quality - HOWEVER, there are some dead pixels in the bottom of my screen. Sceptre is a cheaper quality brand so this is to be expected over time. But all-in-all very nice screen worth the money.

02-11-2024Picture is good and two inputs are nice. BUT the speakers sound very tinny and the buttons to do anything are on the back of the monitor. does anyone have a mirror mounted to see these little buttons? My old monitor had touch buttons on the front; a genius and convenient idea! If you want good sound this is not the monitor as there is no way to adjust the audio atall...except to increase or decrease the volume.

> 3 dayEverything except the speakers was good. Very easy to set up. Wish the buttons were a little more clear on the back of the screen.
