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

I love this monitor, I was not expecting it to be as big as it was which was a pleasant surprise. Love it, it has a great quality screen.

Ive only had the monitor for a day but Im happy with the purchase. I initially tried to cancel the order but the seller had already shipped. I figured I would give it a try and send it back if it wasnt up to spec. Im coming from a 12 year old Samsung T260HD monitor that is 25.5 inches, 1920x1200 @60hz. This was top of the line at the time and paid $329 while this was one was only $109. The old monitor had screen tearing in games (no g-sync or freesync) and FPS play wasnt ideal, especially in COD Warzone. If youve never played on a higher refresh rate monitor before, it makes a difference. I tried overclocking the monitor to 85hz and then 80hz but neither took so I tried out the rated spec of 75hz with freesync and let me say.. I could notice the difference right away and even picked up my first Warzone Solo victory. Aiming was much more smooth and I could keep my reticle glued on other players. If youre using this for light gaming and youre coming from a 60hz panel, youll be pleasantly surprised. This appears to be a TN panel because the viewing angles are poor. Theyre completely fine when viewed straight ahead - since this is being used as a computer monitor, its not a problem for me but buyer beware. No dead pixels or edge bleeding to speak of. Blacks arent super dark but decent and the factory setting was ok as far as brightness and contrast was concerned. I configured to my liking and Im satisfied. The stand is wobbly as others have stated and I didnt even bother with speakers, nor should you. Im not expecting this thing to last but Im hoping to get 2-3 years out of it. I was looking to get a higher refresh rate monitor (144-165hz) but after doing research, you cant take advantage of the higher refresh rate unless your frames per second average is just as high (144+fps). With a Ryzen 5 2600 and an aging Rx 570, Im getting an average of 75fps in COD Warzone with the settings at high. In this case, the monitor is a perfect pairing for the 75hz refresh rate. In order to take advantage of the higher refresh rate you will need to open up your AMD or Nvidia software and create a profile that is set @75hz. Once this is created, go into display settings on your computer -> advanced settings -> monitor and then select the new 75hz profile from the drop down. Last, you will need to enable freesync from the monitor control panel (its in the menu options) and then enable it in the AMD software (not sure about Nvidia). If youre lucky, you may be able to overclock the monitor to a higher refresh rate. Just create a profile for 80 or 85hz, select it in display settings and see if it takes. If it doesnt, the monitor will revert back to the previous refresh rate in 10 seconds. From what Ive read, this doesnt harm your monitor and it depends on the manufacturer as to how far you can overclock it. Dont expect much from this panel, however. All-in-all, its an upgrade for me in just about every way. Some people say a 27 screen at 1080p for gaming isnt ideal. I beg to differ. The pixel density isnt superb by any means but I didnt notice any difference from a slightly smaller screen (25.5 vs 27) and less pixels (old monitor was 1920x1200). If I had to choose, Id take the extra real-estate over pixel density which I think only amounts to 6ppi. Theres pixel density calculators out there if youre curious. If you can afford it and your GPU/CPU can achieve 100+fps, I would go with a higher refresh rate monitor. For lower end specs, general use or a second monitor and for the low price, I dont see why not.

As the review headline says, excellent deal. A steal at $150 for a 27 monitor with a decent screen suitable for office work and gaming. The extra size allows me more multitasking capability, which I need for work. And its always good to game on a bigger screen. A good buy. Recommended. (Plus, the 2 HDMI ports are a bonus, since many monitors come with only one.)

Im quite happy with my purchase of this monitor and it works well with my HP laptop w/Windows 11.

When this monitor goes to sleep with the computer, their is a light that says on all night long. So I always have to shut down the computer at night so the monitor doesnt annoy me. Also, I was disappointed that it doesnt come with any type of connection cable or hardware other than the HDMI cable. So I had to get an adapter to be able to plug it into my USB port. Of course, this was probably specified in the purchase description, so it is not fair for me to call it out. But I would expect it to be able to connect to a normal computer right out of the box. However, the picture is good and the monitor has a good design.

I was very surprised at how sharp and bright the picture was.

This is the second version of this monitor Ive had. Picture quality is still good. Biggest improvement is speakers. The speakers on the older version I have completely suck, can barely even hear them maxed out. These are much louder, which is not to say theyre great sounding, but at least I can hear them. Just using monitor at work, not for gaming or watching TV.

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

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)

Decent monitor for the price but had to send back. Had a stuck pixel in the center of the screen that is very noticeable on a white screen. Buttons being on the back of the monitor are an odd placement and have to blindly press around to adjust monitor settings or turn monitor off. Stand is very wobbly left to right . Being a 1080p on a 27 picture quality isnt very crisp. No Display Port connection if you have a newer graphics card that supports it. The on board speakers are very tinny and not even usable.
