Acer Nitro ED240Q Sbiip 23.6 Full HD 1920 x 1080 VA 1500R Curved Gaming Monitor | AMD FreeSync Premium | 165Hz Refresh Rate | 1ms (VRB) | ZeroFrame Design | 1 x Display Port 1.4 & 2 x HDMI 2.0 Ports

This monitor is just not worth buying. Only expect to get 75hz if you turn the resolution all the way down to 800x600 instead of the 2560x1440 you probably want it for. Without turning the graphics down, youre only getting just shy of 60fps. Picture quality is rough as images have rough pixel-y edges. Video quality is poor, even mouse movement looks choppy and feels laggy (even when set to overdrive and adaptive sync). Overall poor monitor, wouldnt recommend. Very bad advertising of monitors capabilities and performance.

It is a great all around monitor. Great value, especially if youre getting into PC gaming. One of the best bang for buck monitors

I had two Acer monitors of this same type prior (from a couple years ago). They were awesome. Plug them into my laptop... viola! I can use them. Sadly, one got knocked over and destroyed by my cat. I was happy to find this seemingly same monitor. I am so, so, so disappointed and frustrated. The monitor either does not sync with my laptop at all, displaying no signal, or it cycles through every possible syncing option causing all of my screens (the other monitor and my laptop) to flash incessantly without ever connecting. I typically waste 5-15 minutes each day as I try to get myself set up. It used to take 5 seconds. If I dare leave my desk long enough for my laptop to go into sleep mode, its another 5-15 minutes of restarts, trying to play with settings, trying to push the buttons on the monitor, etc. I actually do not know what works. It seems completely random. I bought this months ago and was too busy to deal with these issues at the time and traveling a lot, so I simply worked from my laptop alone (without the additional monitors). Now that I am back and have a more stable schedule, I would LOVE to benefit from having three screens, but there are days that I just give up and work with two or my laptop alone. What a disappointment!

I was a bit worried about the monitor because of the other reviews, but Ive had it for a month or two at this point and havent had any issues with it so far. My biggest concern with the monitor is that a few reviews were saying the monitor was 120hz at max using an HDMI cable. However, using the HDMI cable included with the monitor on my laptop, I could get all 165hz. Good quality screen, I havent experienced anything weird with the screen. My only issues with the monitor are minor design things I find a bit annoying. The cables stick right out instead of straight down, which means I cant really put it against the wall that well. Another thing is the weird button on the back you have to use to navigate the menu. Not only is it in a weird spot, it sucks to use it. Finally, this monitor doesnt have a speaker, which is fine cause I didnt buy a monitor for the speaker. Unfortunately, it also doesnt have a aux connector thing so you cant plug a speaker directly into the monitor. This isnt such a big deal since Im usually using earphones on my computer, but I also like to connect my switch to this monitor and the switch dock ALSO doesnt have a thing to connect my earphones to, so I dont get any sound while playing on switch. Overall, great monitor with small flaws. I very much recommend it.

Really good, I aint no expert but I was looking for a nice monitor on a budget and Im not disappointed. Clean and big

The 4ms response time may seem very reliable, but if youre running games at 100+ fps (ESPECIALLY FPS GAMES), you may struggle landing your shots and you will definitely notice that it wasnt necessarily your fault. Compared to my 1ms monitor, I just cant believe I used this for such a long time. The screen does not handle reflections well. In fact, it handles it very poorly. If my phone screen lights up on my desk, the picture quality is impacted. God forbid I have any lights on in my room. The curve is a harmful gimmick. Puts another obstacle in trying to accurately judge shots. There is a strange blur effect when you move a camera quickly or the screen displays any sort of motion. Its particularly noticeable with vibrant colors. Its a sort of bleeding effect. Makes it more difficult to hit shots. If you use Windows, the task bar will leave permanent impressions on the screen. Extremely noticeable while the screen goes black. Dark rooms or loading screens will always remind you that your monitor leaves much to desire. Decent monitor for casual gaming. For anything more than that, you absolutely must get a better monitor. ESPECIALLY if youre trying to match your framerate with the 144hz refresh rate. I would not recommend this monitor to any of my friends.

Bought this to enhance my work-at-home setup, replacing a 24 flat Acer that will get repurposed in another room. PROS: * Monitor was packaged well and started up with no dead pixels. * Setup was super easy -- one screw connects the base to the monitor bracket, and the bracket snaps into the back of the monitor. * Overall, picture quality is good for the price. * At 3W, speakers put out considerably more volume than other monitors (the Acer it replaces had 2W speakers with very weak sound). * Comes with a handy set of cables (except DVI...not even an adapter?). * White/chrome style looks clean and modern sitting on our kitchen desk. * Did I mention its curved?? CONS: * Packaging leaves no confusion as to whats inside -- fortunately I was able to claim it off the front porch before anyone passing by got greedy. * Ports are kind of tucked up and in, which make connection kind of tricky. * Comes with a single rocker/push button for control that is easy to turn on, but has to be held 12 forevers before it turns off. * Brightness seems just a touch uneven across the width of the screen. Overall, Im happy with the purchase and would recommend.

I moved from a 1080p / 60 hz Samsung Curved to this one. I spent hours researching which one I wanted and ended up going with this one over Sceptere. The 144hz is clean, havent changed settings and colors look nice. Brightness is nice off the bat. I see a little backlight bleed when he monitor is black but that doesnt bother me because Im not using it then. Will end up buying a new one eventually most likely.

Could not be beat for the price of $179 that I paid for it considering the 144hz refresh rate and VA panel. The one major drawback was the complete lack of factory color calibration. Even fine tuned, the picture showed extremely varied color accuracy. To demonstrate I have compared this monitor on the left with a color calibrated IPS display on the right. The difference is quite noticeable. Upside: Refresh rate and Freesync work fantastic Downside: Fairly poor color accuracy
