Greater than one weekMonitor is good, has great color experience, works at 75Hz easily and can be comfortably used with 2 HDMI inputs. Viewing is nice and is easily power managed. Only issue is the weak base provided with the monitor. It tends to shake, oscillate slightly when placed on the base given in the box especially while we have to push the buttons at the back for switching INPUTs. This issue alone makes it rickety, probably must be mounted on a form handle/stand for more stabler hold.

> 3 dayI honestly thought about shipping this monitor back, but once I played with the color and brightness settings a bit it got a lot better. I would probably not use this as my main display, but it’s an good second monitor I think. I do not believe this is a gaming monitor however. It’s a nice cheap display if you play with the settings, but you do still get what you pay for.

> 3 dayKnocked my other monitor right off the desk - busted. This one was orders and showed up in record same PM timing - 4 hours! Im highly impressed. Comparison: Right next to my acer monitor - this monitor has mostly pros with just a few cons. Overall this is an very exceptional value for both business-office use and video/streaming users. Pros: The color is vivid and crisp with very useable settings and slight to strong blue light % drop options. Monitor is sharper in the correct way, but colors are not as wide/more colors. So definitely newer LEDs but not necessarily better than higher/more expensive competitors. Unit wights hardly nothing, but packs a performance punch that matches and exceeds rivals processing-wise. Appearance looks bigger than my other 27, because of the semi-edgeless design - not full/close edgeless, which is good enough for me. Cons: The menu function is only 5 buttons with no directional button, which takes getting used to, but it works fine and easy. Top button is enter, bottom button is power on/off. Button up from bottom is exit. Middle two are up/down:left/right. Im glad I chose this one! Only time and video side:by:side comparison will tell with as close to similar settings as possible, but dont need to wait when you need it asap. Thanks!

> 3 dayI utilize these monitors for working from home and have been pleased thus far. Mine does have one dead pixel which is frustrating but it’s such a minor defect I’ve decided to live with it as getting a replacement monitor would be more of a pain for what it’s worth. I really like the minimal bezel on these - fully utilizes the screen real estate and makes a clean double monitor setup.

> 3 dayPurchased to replace a 6 yr old asus 21.5 led monitor (nothing wrong with the old monitor, just wanted a bigger screen). Currently connected via hdmi -> hdmi. Just ordered a DP -> hdmi to test with. Will update if it affects the review. Lets get to the Pros: * Interior packing seem to cushion the screen well (no visible damage to screen) * Assembly was quick (2 screws to the arm to the back of the screen, and rotate to lock base in place) * Screw cover and screw driver included * Power cable nice and long (i only needed 3 ft, plenty to keep coiled up) * No profile frame is very pretty (so thin) * Colors are very vibrant (kids play a lot of roblox, lots of color variants and looks wonderful) Now onto the cons: * A little dim. No where as bright as the old led monitor (especial during the day) * Video inputs are back facing * Control buttons are on the back of the monitor * Stand is flimsy and rocks a little when using the control buttons to turn on/off the monitor All in all, the kids are enjoying the bigger monitor, but i am concerned about the brightness and the wobbly stand. Im about 50/50 on buy another one. We do need another monitor for the 2nd school computer, but Im not certain this is the one. Edit: The sound is terrible. I usually use headphones but had to use the built in speaker on a pinch. Even @ 100% it is bare audible. Dropping my review by 1 star.

> 3 dayWe purchased this to use with a casting device to watch videos. Im pleased with the image quality. The audio quality is very basic, and the volume is fine for a quiet house or office, but probably inadequate for a louder environment. When we need better quality or more volume, we use external speakers. The stand is simple to assemble, and does its job to hold up the monitor, but its rather flimsy and not particularly stable for a monitor this large. Overall I am pleased with this purchase. I was looking for an affordable monitor with good picture quality, and it delivers well on those counts.

Greater than one weekI 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!
