Awesome for the price and my uses
These reviews are mixed together; I have the 27″ IPS 100hz version. I use the HDMI (digital) port for connection, but it’s nice that this monitor also has a VGA (analog) input option as VGA is a past standard for older computers. To my eyes the brightness and colors are great right out of the box, and the picture is very clear. I don’t play fast-action video games, so I can’t comment on how well it works for those. But for text, spreadsheets, and normal web browsing (including YouTube) this works very well.Positives:IPS (for me) is preferable to VA type monitors. It’s a small difference but if you are picky, here’s IPS.The border is very thin, thus you’ve got maximum usable screen space with almost no waste.The price was incredible at $120. I see that it’s now $160 and I think still a good value there.Great picture right out of the box.VESA wall (or arm) mountable.Choice of HDMI or VGA input.Looks good with the power on or off.Potential negatives (for some people):Provided base is very wide at the bottom, and possibly difficult to attach to monitor. I tried briefly to attach the screen to the base, instructions say something about turning it to attach securely – I couldn’t figure out how to attach it securely. This didn’t matter to me because I planned to use a “monitor arm” (I have one from MOUNTUP) and that works great on my computer desk which is about 1″ thick. But if you want to use the included base, I’m not sure how to attach it securely, and I might ding it a star for that.The AC to DC power convertor (aka power supply) is inside the monitor, which gives it an elegant look vs. a separate power supply. However, if the power supply dies, good luck replacing it. At the price paid this is ok, and might even be preferable for some people.The power cord and connections to the computer (HDMI or VGA) attach upward from the bottom, rather than straight into the back. Again this looks more elegant but I would prefer straight into the back, as that is easier to attach. You might need to do some fumbling around before you get it all connected.The monitor is adjustable for brightness, colors, on/off etc. from the back of the unit on the right side. These are easily reached by “feel” once you know where they are, and which is which. One of the switches starts an on-screen “menu” that you can navigate. I made it appear but haven’t tried to adjust it. This is probably how all monitors adjust now, but I preferred the old days when monitors had 5 or so physical switches on the front or bottom edge, so you could change brightness, color hue, etc. Of course those monitors were also much more expensive than today’s monitors, for a smaller picture that wasn’t as good as today’s. Just saying that if you want to change the settings, it may take some fumbling to get the hang of it.It doesn’t have the pixel density of more expensive monitors, but for my use I don’t need it the higher density. To me the picture and text looks really good from where I sit, which is about 2 feet away.Overall this is fantastic for my uses as a VESA-mounted non-gaming monitor, and incredible at the price I paid. The only frustration I can imagine is if you use the included base/stand and can’t figure out how to secure it to the screen (there must be a way, I would think, but I didn’t try very hard since I was going to use an external “arm” mount anyway). Or if you do fast-action gaming, maybe it’s not as good as some, but I have no idea about that.

Good Price for High Quality, large size monitor (27″)
Just what I needed to enhance my office desktop. This has become my main monitor because of its size I can easily read windows when set to 90% magnification, or even smaller. Vivid colors.

Awesome monitor!
Love the crisp colors, bright display, easy to set up & is the perfect size! Only thing I don’t like is how little it can adjust front to back. I would like it pointed down more but I’m sure it’s for safety so it doesn’t tilt too much. I plan on getting a monitor wall mount to make up for it but definitely love it & it came quickly!

Great monitor for the price
This ACER monitor is a solid choice, especially for the price. I bought two of them for a side-by-side dual-display. No dead pixel (that I can see at least), the viewing angles are great, and the colors are pretty accurate, though I had to tweak them a bit to get everything just right. It’s got ok contrast and performs well in games as far as I can tell—nice and responsive with no lag at least in the games I play (nothing hardcore, mostly RPGs). On the downside, the build feels a bit plasticky, and it’s not the most stable on the desk. Overall, though, for what you’re paying, it’s a great deal. Definitely recommended.

Great Value
I bought this for my father in law, Great Picture, Awesome refresh, and the only control is a single push click joystick on the right rear while facing screen…

Acer 27” Still Great Over 4 Years Later
As a 100% remote worker in IT for over 6 years, I prioritized my eye health when setting up my office. I use these monitors well over 10 hours/day, so had no reservations in getting the larger displays.The lower tier are all Acer 27” monitors, 3 of which are over 4 years old and the 4th just added. All perform equally well, with no difference in color or brightness. Can you spot the newest unit? Appearance-wise, physical and image quality, they’re identical (lens distortion makes the middle 2 seem narrower)! If you guessed the one on the far left, it’s actually the far right one 😉 . I use dual docking stations and mix/match between Windows (Lenovo work laptop) M2 MacBook Pro, and occasionally a Linux.The Acer monitors are also my travel monitors. (Hint: Keep your Boxes!) Three, packaged together as one unit (custom fit in an outer box), is just small and light enough to qualify as checked luggage! The original 3 27” Acers have traveled across the US multiple times. I absolutely rely on these Acer 27” monitors daily for work and off-hours for content creation.So what changed in 4 years with the Acer?- The original ones are super thin but rely on an external small and light power brick; the latest version has the power supply built in, so you only get a power cable and the lower base depth, front-to-back, is thicker but not a show-stopper for most uses.- The original 3 have audio pass- through control, (which I’ve never used); no audio port on the new one- Power and image buttons on the bottom right edge on the older model, moved lower right edgeAnd since you’re curious, the upper 3 displays are 6-year old LG 32” monitors … not nearly as good as the Acers, if I’m being honest.

Buscando.con paciencia encuentras buenas ofertas, este monitor es bueno, no es 4k sino full HD y es más que suficiente, su tamaño de 27 pulgadas hace mucha diferencia con el standar de 23pulgadas así que si vale la pena.

Nunca había jugado en un monitor, con este pase de TV a Monitor y súper bien la calidad, mi única queja sería que no tiene bocinas ni tampoco salida de audio, pero buscando otros modelos esta fue la mejor opción por calidad y precio. Esta chido lo volvería a comprar.

Using it as a 2nd monitor for WFH setup.
