Works decent, it is MPRT, so its not true 1ms response. Not as good as a TN or IPS panel. Dead pixels after 1 week, which they say is expected. Its honestly not acceptable. I had a BenQ for over a year with not a single dead pixel. Will purchase something else and use this as a second monitor. IF you are looking for a main monitor, go with something else. IPS or TN panel. BenQ recommended. You pay for what you get i guess.

Pros: - Great picture quality. Deep whites, rich blacks, vibrant colors. Good color accuracy after some minor tweaks. Great white and black uniformity. Contrast ratio is lower than most VA panels but still a huge step up from an IPS or TN panel. Gaming is where this monitor really shines! - Two display ports, two HDMI ports - Joystick OSD control was snappy and response. Lots of options in the OSD - Very low input lag, very response Cons: - Small text is blurry and has noticeable fringing. I tried solving this by maxing out the sharpness and using Cleartype and several solutions I found online. This seems to be an issue inherent with VA panels. I planned to use this as a work monitor, but this issue was too noticeable for me. Some will be less sensitive to this though - My unit came with some minor scuffs on the back of the panel Misc: - Stand is very study, but has only tilt adjustment - 32 inches is big for a monitor. Great if its your only monitor, but I had this as a second display and my neck was not happy from needing to move so much - Response time is a mixed bag. Most of the time motion is clear, especially in bright areas. Smearing becomes somewhat noticeable in dark areas. I didnt mind it because it was brief, but if response time is important, then a TN panel or a high end IPS panel will work better for you. Hardware Unboxed stated in their review for this monitor than in terms of response time, its closer to 120hz panel overall

I liked how easy this monitor was to set up and great quality picture for my Xbox One S. Overall amazing monitor!

Im going to make this short and sweet. This monitor is exactly what you are looking for when gaming on a budget. (minus the stand, its not bad but if you want to be able to adjust height and rotation get a third party VESA mount for your desk or wall) Response time: Immaculate - dont let these overly in depth reviews on YouTube discourage you. You will definitely experience the 165 Hz refresh rate whether performing simple tasks or while gaming. Size: Perfect. 1080p is best experienced at 24-25 inches. Anything higher would make the image less defined and stretched. Speakers are terrible but you definitely shouldnt game with display speakers. The speakers are just super low. but this is a sacrifice for image quality and response times. It is an IPS panel so the colors are accurate. The overall picture quality is incredible and colors are so vibrant. Overall it is the best budget gaming monitor i could find and definitely worth your money.

Image quality out of the box is great, I only applied slightly different calibrations based on what looks good to me. I cannot detect any dead pixels. The stand doesnt offer height adjustment, but it does the job in my opinion. This monitor comes with the standard VESA mount if you want to use a monitor arm. The bezels are nice and slim, and the monitor doesnt have that tacky gamer look. Gaming performance is great, Freesync works well on my Radeon 5500 XT and gaming is smooth and very enjoyable. This is my first 144hz monitor and im glad I gave Pixio a chance, they seem to make fantastic monitors. Buy this monitor if your interested in getting into high refresh gaming at a good price.

So I took a chance and ordered this pixio monitor based off a good reviews I had seen. When the monitor arrived, to say the least I was not disappointed. The picture quality is great (far better than a tn panel) and the price is unbeatable for the specs you get. However, I did have an issue with the stand being loose even with all the mounting bolts tightened down. So rather than return to amazon I reached out to pixio and explained the issue. I received a personalized (not an auto) email response in less than 24 hours. The representative immediately offered a replacement stand and asked that I register my product and fill out a simple rma form. After I submitted my forms I then received confirmation that my item would be shipped, but to my surprise I received the replacement stand the very next day. I have since installed the new stand which resolved all issues with the previous one. Dealing with pixio is hands down the best and easiest customer service experience I’ve had. I now have faith that if something is to go wrong in the future that pixio will stand by their warranty. If your reading this review and are hesitant to try a pixio, don’t be. Let my testimony help you make the right decision. There are other similar panels on the market from more well known companies, but most have tn panels/less features and are more expensive. The Pixio monitors truly represent a great value in the market. If I need a second monitor down the line pixio will be what I get.

Overall this is a quality monitor from a good company; packaging is secure and somewhat premium and the build quality is solid for such an affordable portable monitor. However if you are planning on using this as a larger screen for your Nintendo Switch as I did, make sure to use the official Nintendo AC adapter instead of the one supplied in the box since the power delivery system for the Switch has such a unique voltage. The supplied adapter surged my console after connecting over USB-C and I was unable to turn it on until doing a hard reset; which initially made me believe that the console had been bricked. But I would still recommend using official Nintendo power supplies for any external devices for use with the Switch.

DO NOT BUY THE MODEL WITH NO VA OR IPS. You will get jipped, bamboozled and have a bad day unless you know what you are doing. If you pick the one with no IPS in the Style name, you will experience intense ghosting and color artifacts that feel as if the monitor were retrieved from the crusty industrial warehouse. I got this monitor for my daughter, who is crying as I write this review (shes 9 years old) The box the monitor arrives in feels used, and it has a sticky residue if you know where to look. The ghosting was horrible. White-on-black text will morph into a putrid yellow artifact. Color artifacts were present as well if you switched the color options & refresh rate. The display itself was not stable in between changes. 144hz would make the display appear crisp and great, despite the ghosting. 119hz would wash the output with a horrible tone of white. Honestly, the only redeeming characteristics of the monitor are the: OSD, stand design and bevel.

Great picture quality, very smooth, good for gaming, etc. Monitor has crosshairs, 1 display port, 2 HDMI ports, and a USB slot. Works wonders, and for the price is perfect.

if your not looking to break your bank account this monitor is a pretty good value for a 144hz panel. i tend to lean towards ips because of the picture quality. i really did not see any ghosting in this monitor so that is a plus. it does have freesync and that is another plus. the built in speakers i would not recommend using long term, i would either get a nice pair of headphones or speakers to really get a better experience.
