> 3 dayThe aux output does not work and the built in speakers are very low quality. Not worth the hassle to return it, so Im just stuck with monitor that has bad sound.

> 3 dayThese monitors are great. All three of these monitors are the same brand, but the two to the right are this 27 inch. It’s huge! They are very bright as well.. I had to turn the brightness down on both of them because it hurt my eyes. Easy to connect.. can’t even tell that they are cheap. The only complaint I have with them is that the stands are pretty short to the desk. I wish they could move up and down, but they do tilt! Which I didn’t even realize until I did it on accident.. they don’t feel like they should tilt (I thought I broke it at first), but then I realize that they’re supposed to tilt, so that was helpful since you can’t move them up and down. They also have a back where you could get another stand or a mount for them.

> 3 daySome glare when lights on; very faint. But it messes with clarity of image when working on excel, reading pdfs, etc. Not bad when watching videos.

> 3 dayPurchased to replace a 6 yr old asus 21.5 led monitor (nothing wrong with the old monitor, just wanted a bigger screen). Currently connected via hdmi -> hdmi. Just ordered a DP -> hdmi to test with. Will update if it affects the review. Lets get to the Pros: * Interior packing seem to cushion the screen well (no visible damage to screen) * Assembly was quick (2 screws to the arm to the back of the screen, and rotate to lock base in place) * Screw cover and screw driver included * Power cable nice and long (i only needed 3 ft, plenty to keep coiled up) * No profile frame is very pretty (so thin) * Colors are very vibrant (kids play a lot of roblox, lots of color variants and looks wonderful) Now onto the cons: * A little dim. No where as bright as the old led monitor (especial during the day) * Video inputs are back facing * Control buttons are on the back of the monitor * Stand is flimsy and rocks a little when using the control buttons to turn on/off the monitor All in all, the kids are enjoying the bigger monitor, but i am concerned about the brightness and the wobbly stand. Im about 50/50 on buy another one. We do need another monitor for the 2nd school computer, but Im not certain this is the one. Edit: The sound is terrible. I usually use headphones but had to use the built in speaker on a pinch. Even @ 100% it is bare audible. Dropping my review by 1 star.

> 3 dayI felt compelled to write a review for this monitor after seeing a lot of negative reviews recently. First off, my old 27 Dell monitor that Ive been using to work from home with died after 8 years of use. You just cant go back to working on a 14 laptop screen all day when you are used to 27. This Sceptre was the cheapest 27 monitor available on Amazon today and was available with Same. Day. Shipping. I was floored. Read through the reviews and the recent ones werent that flattering, but seeing how I had to work today, I needed a monitor and pulled the trigger. True to their word, received the monitor today, just after 2pm. Packaged well. No damage to the monitor or screen upon unpacking. Very simple to put together, just twist the stand onto the base, attach the stand to the back of the monitor and screw in 2 screws. They even included a screw driver so I didnt have to hunt for one. The screen is perfectly fine for at home work crunching data in Excel spreadsheets, designing Power BI dashboards or working on Word documents. I dont plan on Gaming with this monitor, so it meets all my expectations for a business monitor, as it is labeled and sold as. Another user complained of it being wobbly but I have not found that to be the case. Perhaps they did not screw in the 2 screws tight enough. TL;DR - Perfectly fine business monitor for work. Dont be put off by negative reviews.

> 3 dayI don’t use these for gaming but I think they are a good inexpensive monitor. I don’t use they for sound but if you do they are very horrible unless you enjoy a tin sound.

> 3 dayI use this monitor to mix my audio tracks, it’s bigger than I expected but I’m not upset about that. The video quality is great as well!

Greater than one weekThe 27 DOES make a difference. The 75mhz DOES make a difference. Best buy for monitors.

> 3 dayGreat monitor, havent had any problems with them. I love how slim the edges are it makes for a clean setup. The price isnt bad either for what you get.

09-06-2025Needed a full size display to use with two laptops. With two HDMI inputs, this fits the bill. Very impressed with the display, but it took some creativity to get set up exactly as I want (see mounting issues below). For office work, this monitor exceeds expectations. I absolutely love the display and the ease of switching from one laptop display source to the other. I’m not impressed with the speakers, but they’re functional enough for my needs. Mounting Issues: I did not care for the stand at all, not the right height or angle for me and doesn’t seem very stable. I used a generic monitor arm, but it’s worth mentioning that the input panel on this monitor is positioned in such a way that a mounting plate will cover the input ports! I was able to cut my mounting plate with an angle grinder and make it work.
