    I just hooked this up after a black friday sale. Things Ive noticed. (no dead pixels for me). Pros - its definitely a large improvement vs the 24 monitor I was using before. - I verified on blankwebsite.com - the yellowish light to get rid of blue light is nice. Its a lot easier on the eyes. Cons - The stand is extremely cheap. It feels like if my cats bump it it will tip over and brake. Also you cant adjust the angle of the monitor on the stand (it is a really cheap flimsy stand). This is probably a deal breaker for me. - It has a wallwart rather than a regular plug which could make it difficult for fitting into a powersupply or outlet. - theres a really annoying flashing blue light whenever your computer isnt sending signal to it. In the dark its really annoying.

    Can’t speak to gaming; picture quality seems pretty good so may work fine for that. However, i purchased two for work from home setup and letters in Outlook and Word lack clarity and its noticeable and i tried many adjustments, including sharpness (which has only 0, 25%, 50%, 75% or 100% vs 0-100 for all other adjustments.. This is not totally unexpected due to size vs resolution, but what makes it much less tolerable is after one day each monitor has a dead pixel. I guess these arent bad for the price point, but understand these aren’t going to be perfect, especially if used for work. Update: changed rating from 3 stars to 4 because on one monitor the dead pixels were actually stuck and by rubbing the screen I was able to unstick them. On the other monitor, I was within the 30 day window for Amazon and they exchanged it for me. Thank you Amazon! Hopefully no new pixels will get stuck or go dead.....

    I bought 3 of these for my at home job as my old set up was giving me a headahce (different screens mix matched, different resolutions, sizes, etc). set the blue light filter on these and set the brightness and its comfortable to work at my desk all day now (as far as monitors go)

    I bought this to use as an external monitor for my MacBook Pro and am disappointed. I wasnt expecting the resolution of an apple studio display, but the display quality on this Sceptre monitor is really poor. Text appears grainy and difficult to read and the ghosting even with the anti ghosting / gaming features turned on is awful. I bought this because I dont really do any gaming and just needed a larger display to setup on my desk to use my slicing softwares for 3d printing. Im using Lychee to place supports on models and the graininess of this makes it kind of painful on your eyes to place supports with precision unless you zoom WAY in. The brightness is fine and is comfortable to look at. It has a night shift type of feature built in, but you have to change this manually and it wont automatically switch when your computer switches and there is no ambient light detection to help it either. The speakers built into this monitor are exactly what you would expect for speakers built into a 100 dollar monitor. Theyll work in a pinch but this is not something you want to expose your ears to for a long period of time, unless youre okay with a low volume tinny output. The ports available to use on this monitor are great as well, but not of enough of a plus to outweigh the cons of its primary function as a display. Lastly, the stand included with the monitor is flimsy and on a super sturdy table top that doesnt have any give or movement, the stand on this monitor still wobbles at the slightest vibration. Reminds me of a jello mold the entire time Im using it. Overall, super disappointed with this display and I may repurpose it for use in my garage to play some workout videos off of a Roku or an Apple TV.

    This monitor is hard to love due to some glaring issues with its quality control. That being said, its a budget conscious monitor that has a MSRP of $129.99 so you have to be realistic with your expectations. Ill go through my experience for you from start to finish. The Pros - It is 75hz refresh rate capable. 5ms response time for those who need it. Its light weight and very thin. (Great for mounting) It has 2 HDMI connectors. The version that I got uses a 12V DC port (Useful for cable management). Built in speakers a plus if you have limited space to work with. (Like using the monitor at a work station / terminal) The Cons - Out of 2 ordered, 1 had a dead pixel. The speakers are not only muffled, but extremely quiet. Stand is extremely light weight for a 27 inch monitor. 12V 3A AC/DC adapter looks really suspect (like the ones you get with LED strips) and probably will fail over time. VESA specs are incorrect in the manual. (They recommend M4 12mm screws). 1 year only warranty that requires you to send it back to them on your dime for service. My biggest gripe so far (dead pixel or not) is that the VESA mounting holes on the rear of the monitor are extremely shallow. I needed to special order a set of M4 8mm screws in order to get it to attach to one of my dual monitor brackets. VESA standards list 100 x 100 hole patterns to use a standard M4 10mm screw. My 8mm screws that I ordered barely fit into my bracket with a washer. I would assume the holes drilled in the monitor for the screws are 4mm or 5mm deep at best. The manual recommends using 12mm M4 screws! That would leave about 8mm or 7mm jutting out in the air. Most VESA mounting hardware will only include 10mm, 12mm and 25mm M4 screws for 100 x 100 hole patterns. So in case you want to mount this monitor to any bracket, make sure to have some shorter M4 screw sizes ready. Negatives aside, its an extremely attractive monitor for the home office or the kids (teenager or college bound). You can forgive a lot of the imperfections if this is going to be attached to something you dont stare at constantly. Probably also good for grass roots e-sports tournament organizers who need a larger screen real estate but dont want to break the bank and arent too worried about ultra quality. 5ms response time and 75hz refresh rate is good for most games except ultra competitive FPS. This is going to be a dynamic review in that I will update my experience as I own the monitor longer. I have a replacement coming from Amazon for the dead pixel afflicted one I got initially and well see how that goes. Sceptres policy on dead pixels is that they need 5 or more to be considered defective enough for warranty service. Worst yet, you have to ship the item back to them at your expense. So I highly recommend while youre in the Amazon 30 day return window to put the monitor through its paces and see if its the right one for you without any major problems. Once its out of that window, youll be at the mercy of Sceptres RMA department and will probably need to pay $22 bucks (or more) to send it back to fix a $129.99 (or less) monitor.

    That frickin blinking blue light. I made the mistake of getting this for my office, which also happens to be in my bedroom. When the computer its connected to has been idle for some period of time, the monitor starts blinking this unbelievably bright blue light that can only be disabled by unplugging the monitor from the wall. Maddening! I did find a partial fix - in the settings, you can make it so the blue light stops blinking after 30 minutes - but no less. So if you use it before bed, you need to unplug it from the wall, or wait the 30 minutes. All this to say, dont get this monitor if youre going to be sleeping in the same room (unless you love blinking blue lights ya frickin weirdo)

    I loved the screen, size and picture quality, but the sound was not good, so I got a set of logi speakers and now its perfect. Thank you, Penny

    Honestly, it’s a pretty solid monitor for the price. Only thing i have to say is that the speakers are low quality, but other than that the picture quality is good for what it’s worth (even a little better).

    Im currently got my Chromebook hooked up to it and you do have to learn how to doggle through the unmarked buttons. Right to left I believe they go one through six or one through five we have to toggle or toggle between HDMI and vga. Once you figure that out, if you play audio on the TV by itself, it doesnt sound so good. If you play the audio from a computer or Chromebook hooked up to the tv, I cant explain how but it sounds incredible. Its like I added a 27-inch screen to my chromebook. Its not completely plug and play cuz you still have to press buttons on the Chromebook and thats alternate plus one of the top buttons usually the fifth button over from the left on top you got to press those two together. As far as the TV the button on the far right in is the power button. That only needs to be pressed once because once it receives a signal it turns itself on. And that is a plus in the long run. Hooking up a Playstation 2 you got to jump through a few more hoops but it can be done as well if you use the VGA serial connector. But, to use that, you must first hook up something with HDMI so you can rotate the screen over to vga. you better have the PlayStation on when you do this because it will revert to HDMI within 5 seconds if it does not receive a signal from the VGA. You got to have that PlayStation 2 up and running/ updatede PS2 fix! Get the PS2 HDMI converter with the power for USB... works better than the RCA cables :)

The product is multiple voltage compatible, that voltage arrange is 100-240V
