Acer Nitro XV282K KVbmiipruzx 28 UHD (3840 x 2160) Agile-Splendor IPS Gaming Monitor | AMD FreeSync Premium | 144Hz | 1ms | TUV/Eyesafe | 1 Display Port 1.2, 2 HDMI 2.1 & 4 USB Ports

Xbox series x needs to uncheck auto 4K in the settings and then the monitor will work at 4K 120 for games. I instantly noticed improved picture quality and even sound improvements without headphones! My Mac mini M1 seems to have higher quality video as well. Very sleek designed by Acer. Well done.

Coming from the Alienware AW3418DW (An Ultrawide IPS)(VRR Enabled on both monitors) I was a little nervous with this purchase. That said I really really love this monitor. The colors look nicer than my previous monitor, and the speed is also better. I was mainly looking for the speed upgrade with this purchase and this monitor did deliver. Even when running games at 70-90 fps (below the highest refresh rate of both monitors) I could feel a difference in the response times. My new Acer being the dominant monitor of the two. I also felt that the colors looked better. The Acer monitor was more vibrant and looked better in darker scenes in games than my previous monitor did. I used the VRR (Freesync/gsync*) setting with my RTX 2080 and had no issues, even though at the times of this review this monitor is not gsync compatible. I have read on some forums, but to be honest have not done research myself, that this panel is the same as their similar predator model. The predator model is gsync compatible. This leads me to believe that this monitor could receive gsync certification in the future. The VRR performed amazingly in any game I through at it. EFT where I would get 60-140 fps depending on the local. COD where I was pushing 200 fps. Then CSGO where I could use all 270 HZ. All these games felt better than before. And to my delight, these games even looked better (color). Now since I have talked about looks I should mention that I have not looked at the HDR performance on this monitor because I believe even VESA HDR 600 isnt worth paying extra for. I have to say that I am happy with this monitor but I cant leave out the issue I have had. The issue is pictured above. I have not seen this issue in games and have only experienced these issues twice since I purchased the monitor. I am hoping this does stop but if not I will end up returning this monitor. I really dont want to do that because otherwise I really love this monitor. I will update this review below if needed.

Was lucky enough to find one in stock at Micro Center the first day it launched. This monitor delivers on its promises so far. The smoothness and HDR color depth are incredible!

The monitor comes with a dead pixel. Return it instantaneously.

This was my first 240hz low latency gaming monitor and it didnt fail to impress me, perfect for daily use as itll make you think your computer is running faster than it actually is with how smooth everything turns and suitable for gaming, helped me get the competitive edge in many of my favorite co-op/competitive titles, would recommend to anyone.

Was looking for a 4k monitor with 144hz refresh rate. Works pretty good, though brightness could have been better.

Picture is so sharp and high quality and you dont have to make any compromises to play at 270 HZ. The monitor is incredibly smooth and the brightness is suffiicient. No dead pixels or flickers whatsoever.

At first I thought I had image burn/image retention with this monitor after several hours of use a night and was going to return it, but then after some research it turns out if you turn up the black boost too high (I had it on 8, I believe), the image burn keeps coming back. So I turned it to the setting of 5 and I havnt had a problem with image burn since then. Pretty good monitor, my first time using an IPS @ 240hz for FPS games. Goodbye TN! Great colors also, really pretty pictures and colorful, amazing. Like nothing Ive used in the past.

Hdr is terrible and over saturated colors I returned mine and baught a samsung g7 flat screen way better

I bought 3 of these monitors for a tripple screen setup. A year and a half later this is my most regrettable pc related purchase of all time. Let me be clear for me most of the time these dont flicker, but anytime you display something dark(like a lo of websites these days) or anything stationary with a black or dark background there is a good chance you will experience either the notorious flicker or the notorious flicker + burn in/ short to medium term image retention. Everyone says the fix is to turn off the black boost feature in the on screen menu but I can also 100% confirm that if you want to take advantage of HDR on these monitors you loose the option to toggle this option or adjust it. For the money buy a different 240hz HDR IPS monitor and avoid the potential headaches that come with long term ownership. Unfortunately Im stuck with 3 of these things, all three of them have the same issues and reproduce them consistently in the same conditions and I wish i just waited for alienware or any other company to make a 240Hz IPS.
