Sceptre 27-Inch FHD LED Gaming Monitor 75Hz 2X HDMI VGA Build-in Speakers, Ultra Slim Metal Black

The monitors themselves are great. No issues with the picture quality or set up. The built in speakers suck very badly, dont plan on using them for your main audio output.

Well it’s not great and it’s not totally horrible. Sorry for the back and forth but the monitor is fulfilling the purpose I bought it for. You can’t expect this thing to be as great as an Samsung, Asus, etc. My work from home monitor replacement, yes I bought it myself because the company supplied 20” is way too small and old. This monitor works for desktop applications, and it’s so-so. I had one stuck pixel as did my best friend who followed suite in buying one too. Needs some tweaking but works great for my work needs. I thought about returning it over the one pixel but in reality the price and waiting another 2-3 weeks to receive a replacement not worth it with the Covid-prime 2weeks instead of 2 days shipping. Now for my other use, this work from home setup is a spare computer and if the wife takes my main game box I have a fall back. This monitor is horribly fuzzy and washed out in gaming. For the record I have only tried overwatch with a freesync compatible RX 550 4gb card ( it’s a dell tower not my ryzen 5 with 32gb ram and SSD drives upstairs). So I know there’s a big difference but the image and colors can’t hold a candle to my acer 24.5” 75hz monitor with my game box. Does it work, yes absolutely well enough I can ignore the above and enjoy a game. If you want size, cost, and don’t care to game on this monitor it’s decent for the price. If you plan to game on it, I would suggest looking elsewhere. Unless you care more about size & price and can deal with it and the potential of a stuck/dead pixel you may get too. Nick

I got this to use with my Chromebook and IPad. When used with my Chromebook it is connected via an hdmi cable. When used with my IPad I cast the picture onto the monitor using a Roku (also hooked up with an hdmi cable). Both set ups work well. The monitor has speakers on it that are fine for basic and see, but if you want to listen to music or games you will want to use a blue tooth speaker. Chromebooks have multi screen capabilities, and the monitor works very well in that mode. For what I use it for, this monitor works very well, and is a fantastic value. If I had your kids though I would want a more secure base. While I have not had any issues with it, I suspect kids could knock the monitor over rather easily. It works fine for me, though.

I needed a cheap replacement monitor for my old 27 Viewsonic monitor as I really did not want to invest any more money in my old Windows 7 Pro computer rig. But, since new computers with pre-loaded Windows 11 are still not readily available, I had to bite the bullet and buy this monitor to tide me over. Out of the box, I needed to fuss with A LOT of the hardware settings to get it to kind of match my old monitor settings. You need to call up and scroll through a hardware menu to do so, and the location of the setting buttons on the back of the monitor does not make this task any easier. Still, with all the fuss and muss, it only took me about 10 minutes to figure it out and adjust the monitor to where I wanted it to be. Cons: The computer stand could be more robust and stiffer, but for my use, it is not a show stopper. No on-board USB ports, but I knew this ahead of time so again it was not a show stopper. Pros: Price, reduced power consumption (when compared to the older 120 v monitors), and weight. At my age, weight matters with you have to move desktop computer equipment to clean your workspace and this monitor is substantially lighter than my old 27 Viewsonic monitor and uses a lot less power too. Mom really loves this new monitor, so I guess that is what really matters!

I bought this for use with my laptop. Unfortunately, when I plug this in, my laptop switches its audio output to the speakers in the monitor, and there is no option (not that I could find) to switch back to the speakers built into the laptop. The sound quality from this monitor sucks compared to my laptop speakers. The mounting stand for the monitor is flimsy and the monitor rocks from side to side with the slightest touch. The mount provided might be adequate for a 15 monitor, but is completely inadequate for a 27 monitor.

The picture quality is awesome, especially for the price of the TV. The audio isnt very good, but Ive grown to expect that with sceptre tvs, great price and picture quality in exchange for meh audio quality. its a very easy fix by just plugging in a different speaker, though. I was surprised and confused when I realized this TV lacks compatibility with any TV remote, so I have to get up to shut it off, adjust volume, or go on different inputs. Its never mentioned in the description or on the box. Its very weird oversight, I didnt even know there were tvs made to not work with remotes.

My wife works from home and wanted a larger monitor. This is a great monitor for the price and she loves it.

Two year in with a pair of these hooked to a Mac mini. It has been an adventure. The Mac and these have intermittent issues. The monitor settings are hard to adjust. The price is right, dont forget that.

Real easy to put together, very clear picture and setup was a snap.

If you arent worried about the built-in then its a pretty good screen.
