    its extremely heavy for what it should be. not too happy about not having a usb port, thats just stupid. also you dont get a coax in which is not the greatest. the picture is really nice so far. navigation through menu is not great, but manageable. next monitor will have these options. was a good upgrade from my vizeo 19 inch. was able to transfer everything on the wall mount to this one without issues, so that was nice. got this for $89. def wait for it to go on sale if considering buying.

    Ive been using 2 of these for about a year and a half, one display for gaming and the other for utility (movies, discord, streaming, etc) and Ive had nothing but good luck with them. You get exactly what you pay for, a 1ms 75hz gaming monitor. Be aware you will not get 75 fps unless you change your windows settings, it defaults to 60. As for the price I think its a great value for someone getting into pc GAMING anything other than that I would recommend a different type of monitor all together. But for right around 100$ this is a great quality monitor. The color is pretty good, nothing to write home about but it was pretty good in my opinion, just remember this is a 1080p monitor and nothing more, dont expect 4k resolution. I use an NVIDIA card so I cant speak on behalf of the AMD freesync settings. The monitor itself has built in presets for colors but I very rarely used them, I found one that worked for me and stuck with it. The built in speakers are pretty bad, sounds like its being produced in a tincan, I highly recommend a secondary speaker set or a headset (or both) but something like that is to be expected around this price point. The only time I had any issue with the monitor was when I turned off V-sync, while it increased my FPS dramatically the screen tearing was very pronounced but thats what happens to any monitor thats being given more information than it can handle. In conclusion this is a great valued monitor that I would recommend to anyone who is starting off in PC gaming but doesnt want to spend an arm and a leg on peripherals.

    Decent looking monitor and it performed well, but there are a couple of major drawbacks to this monitor if you are planning on using it for a triple screen setup. I chose these for my sim racing rig mostly because of the zero frame/small bezel width. It does have very small bezels, however, the screen does not extend all the way to the frame so it negates the benefits of the small bezels. Also, there is a protrusion on the bottom of the monitors that do not allow you to mate up the screens without a visible gap. These are also very loud. There is a constant ticking sound coming from the back of the monitors when on. I didnt notice it while gaming with the volume up, but as soon as you stop gaming its very noticeable and extremely annoying. Now imagine 3 of them all ticking at the same time. I also had to fight with Amazon for a half a day about returning them. Finally they relented. Just be aware of that.

    I have an Xbox One S and so does my wife. I bought 2 of these KG271 model monitors. Neither monitor worked with either Xbox. I tried 4 different HDMI cords from the standard cord that comes with the Xbox to a HDMI 3.0 and nothing worked with either Xbox. I even bought a HDMI to DP adapter and tried that and still did not work. I tried to plug my laptop into it via HDMI and it did not work either. If you are buying this monitor to use for a console then DO NOT waste your time. I have it 3 stars because I felt it was fair considering I am getting a refund however my time is being wasted. The monitor came with a DP cord, there should be an option to come with the HDMI or other. The monitor has this function where it auto scans for the input source and since it couldn’t detect the HDMI then it kept going into idle mode. I had to keep turning it on then timing it just before it shut off to switch the input. It was a pain and a huge waste of my time. As I said if you’re buying the KG271 series for a console, look elsewhere! I can’t speak for PC although my laptop did not work via HMDI but does not have a DP.

    Built in speakers are horrible. Resolution looks OK, but I have it next to a 5K iMac, so its got a lot to live up to lol. Response time is great when playing on my XBox. Only downfall is the speakers. Just pretend they arent there and use a headset.

    Black levels are a little low but not too much to hinder your experience. You will never see gaming the same after using this. Life changing the 27inc is a bit big for me but its still so insane how this changes gaming. Well worth it.

    This monitor is amazing for gaming i honestly think it is the best deal you can get it has 144hz and 1ms repsonse time like described and these monitors would be great side by side bc of how small the bezel is. 100% recommendation to family and friends and everyone

    Great Monitor, good picture and runs smoothly, only reason it doesn’t have a 5 star is because just a few days after the 1 year warranty it white screened. The monitor only has maybe 1000 hours on it also. But overall great monitor! Would recommend it.

    The audio is very poor from the speakers have to use 100% level to even hear most things. volume video is good over all.

    Pros: + Capable of being an amazing display. + 75hz is great for people that dont have high-end rigs that can reach 144+ fps. + Sleek design, minimally-sized bezel. + Quick and easy swapping between HDMI 1, HDMI 2, and VGA channels. + Great OSD. Cons: - Terribly calibrated out of the box. It will need a little bit of TLC through the OSD. (Set color mode to SRGB, set overdrive to 0, set black boost to 0.) - Seriously, disable the overdrive setting in the OSD under the Gaming tab. Its by far the worst thing anyone has ever created. Thats the feature that is causing your monitor to have that really strange draggy, clippy effect. - Stand is stuck at a standard height, but it can be tilted upward and downward. The stand is at a fairly decent height for most users, anyway. - Absolutely horrendous internal speakers. Summary: With amazing color (after re-calibration), 1080p @75hz, and sleek body-design, and cheap price, this monitor is easily comparable to my primary monitor which cost me $200. The only major difference between my $200 monitor is that it has a better internal speaker and extremely adjustable swivel stand.
