Good Overall Monitor, Especially for Price
Monitor works exactly as advertised. Picture quality is good, however my one complaint would be the lack of sound. I didn’t neccesarily expect this monitor to have built-in speakers but an aux port would have been nice. Product also came broken the first time. Having said this, I would still purchase this monitor again as the overall price and quality exceed that of its competitors, in my opinion.

Just what I needed
Great size and picture quality for general use. Not a gamer so I cant comment on if it works good for that. Speakers are ok but not great.

Would have been even better if inbuilt speakers were there. But then gaming mostly involves headphones so not a deal breaker

Good Monitor, Horrible Factory Settings.
For 120$ this is a pretty solid monitor, 180hz, 1ms response time, decent build quality, etc. But it has TERRIBLE factory settings (brightness way too low, awful ghosting) you can fix it in the osd by turning up the black boost to 10 (this will result in slightly worse colors but i think its worth it) and turning on freesync (if you have an amd card) or turning the pixel drive to extreme if you have a nivida card. Overall i have little complaints other then that and its a pretty budget friendly monitor but i would recommend getting the ips version of this monitor (last time i checked it was cheaper then this one with the same specs) if you can’t stand semi noticeable ghosting.

Good for the price but…
So I got the monitors today and installed them. I wanted to have dual monitors again for the first time in a while and didn’t want to go back to the larger bezel I had before so I thought I’d try out Acer. Picture Quality looks good so far, it holds up to its 165hz rating well. The monitors get SUPER bright but that can be worked with. The only reason that I can’t give this a better score than 4/5 is that one of the two monitors has two dead pixels on it. Luckily I already placed it as the secondary monitor and they are almost on the edge of the screen so its out of the way. I know if I wanted to get another monitor Amazon/Acer would replace it but in this case it’s not a huge deal but enough to warrant the slight knock in score and as a PSA, check for dead pixels when you get new screens!

Good picture quality, good max frame rate, not so good stand. It wobbles a lot, and it fell over in the middle of the night and my monitor tumbled to the ground. Fortunately, it was ok.

Great screen, you won’t achieve great color results out the box or playing with the menu, you have to play with you graphics card settings in order to achieve the most accurate colors possible.

Pretty good with some problems
I’ve had it for a very short amount of time, but it’s already proving to be a great purchase. I would definitely recommend this for anybody who would like a budget gaming monitor.I use it with the PS5, and it’s excellent as I said, with a few issues that tack it down to 4 stars.whenever something light blue pops up on screen, you’ll be flashbanged. It’s unbelievable how bright the screen lights up. This issue can be fixed through the monitors settings (which took me about 20 minutes to get to a somewhat tolerable brightness.)The stand is pretty flimsy, and if you decide to hit your desk, the monitor will wiggle around like jello. Aside from that, it’s pretty good.

Perfect for gaming
I think this monitor has to be one of the best I have had for an 1080p 165hz monitor. Great for gaming because of the 1ms refresh time and the 165hz refresh rate as well. If you are a gamer and love to play on pc or console and don’t want to break the bank I think you will love this.

Excelente relación costo/beneficio
Por el precio me parece una muy buena opción, como monitor secundario o como uno nuevo o como reemplazo de uno antiguo, los colores y la imagen son bastante buenos, al menos en Colombia no creo que se pueda conseguir un monitor así enfocado en gaming por ese precio.Tener en cuenta que solo viene con el cable HDMI y no con el DP.

The picture is good on it. I am using it for my amatuer radio setup of which I have 2… The speakers suck and are very tinny so if you are wanting decent built in speakers I would not buy this otherwise its fine for the money.

A Good 144hz 23.5” Monitor for $120
2 HDMI ports and a one Display the monitor has everything but a speaker or Audio port so if you plug in a console you are going to have to have headphones or an another audio port port plugged in order to get sound. But other than that the screen is great, the menu is very simple to use and pretty much comes out of the box. I would probably go with a mount with this monitor because the stand is a little unstable and there is no way for you tilt your screen how you would like otherwise great for the price and very good quality, have been playing on the highest settings with an 3060ti and I haven’t seen any real issues so far. Unfortunately I don’t see it being my main monitor in the long run but definitely a great starter

Good picture, no audio
Picture quality is good and vibrant (with some exceptions).HOWEVER, there are only 2 hdmi ports and 1 display port meaning if you want to hear ANYTHING, you must use headphones.I had to connect headphones to my ps4 and nintendo switch. Im sure there’s some sort of audio to hdmi adapter out there but its a real bummer that this monitor does not have built in speakers or even the options to plug in speakers directlyAnother thing. Although the ps4 display was really good, displaying games from the nintendo switch looked a little off. It was as if someone turned the sharpness really high for a photo. Eventually I found an option to turn off that extreme sharpness but then it looked a bit blurry. Fortunately this problem does not occur when I’m using the ps4 with the monitor.Yes it has HDRAlso brightness of 50 out of 100 is super bright. I recommend a brightness of 35 which was what I was using in the review photos

Great Budget Monitor / PS5 Gamer
I’ve been using this monitor for about a week now and I’m verging satisfied with the graphics and performance. On PS5 try not to change the HDR settings as it will make your monitor colors look sort of ashy. But turning that off the graphics look amazing, the performance is great too. On supported 120fps games like MWII it’s very smooth and I don’t experience any issues.

Monitor looks amazing for its price
Got the monitor today, I was confused by the manual at first but I got it working regardless. The Crosshair for video games is awesome, the games look amazing in HDR. The only issue I’ve ran into is brightness outside of games is extremely high, I don’t know how to change it. I don’t notice the screen ghosting at all, the free sync works really good. I don’t notice much motion blur either. Going from 60hz to 165hz makes the monitor so much better

Would be great but screen is defective
The media could not be loaded.
Update 2: new screen has worked great! Replacement process when they picked up was very easy!UPDATE: When I went directly to Amazon Customer support instead of trying to do it through my orders I was able to do a much easier return, they’ll even pick it up! I’ll add a new update after I receive the replacement!5/26/23 I am so disappointed it arrived today and I was so excited to set it up, I needed this monitor ASAP for school and now because there are clearly damaged pixels or something I’m going to need to return this. However, the return process is such a headache as it will not just give me an option to return the monitor and simply have a replacement sent, I need to drive 30 miles to the nearest return location and then wait till they receive it, test it apparently, wait till my bank issues the funds back to me and then order it over again and wait for them to mail a new one and hope that it’s not also defective. I would just put up with the weird shadows but I’m concerned that the rest of the screen will go because of whatever damage caused this. If not for the screen I believe I would be happy with this purchase, but considering it doesn’t have speakers or anything BUT a screen that’s kinda a crucial feature.

Reseña general
Entrega y empaquetadoLlego en el tiempo acordado sin daños.Llego sin pixeles muertos, en general el monitor es para gamers de entrada y de bajo presupuesto.Colores decentes pero mejorables es normal en un panel VA supongo.Lo conseguí por una oferta de 120 USD así que me siento bien con lo que obtuve.Lo que me gusto:-165Hz-Diseño-Bastante configurable-2 puertos hdmi y 1 DP-Trae 1 cable hdmiLo que no me gusto:-La tecnología VRB es bastante mala porque te baja bastante el brillo de la pantalla así que no recomendaría usar VRB en extremo. VRB en normal va bien.-Ghosting aunque no es excesivo.-El panel parece bastante frágil así que tenga cuidado con posibles golpes-El cable de energía es un poco corto-Tiene unas cintas adhesivas en los bordes del panel, tenga cuidado al quitarlas ya que como mencione el panel es un poco frágil.Iré actualizando con el tiempo posibles cambios.3 meses después:*el monitor sigue funcionando sin problemas, es buena compra si buscas algo económico pero si buscas calidad y no estas acostumbrado a un poco ghosting o vienes de un monitor IPS medianamente bueno, este monitor no es para usted.*no recomiendo usar VRB ,solo pierdes mucho brillo a cambio de un mínimo de reducción de ghosting*hay un programa para windows llamado acer display widget en caso de que no quieras batallar con los botones físicos para configurar el monitor pero desde el programa no puedes cambiar el espacio de color que quieras usar (sRGB, etc) lo demas si es configurable

ITS A GREAT MONITOR BUT A LITTLE PROBLEM
It does get you 250hz BUT YOU NEED A DISPLAY PORT CABLE!!!!! IT DOES NOT COME WITH A DISPLAY PORT CABLE SO YOU NEED TO BUY IT SEPARATELY IF YOU WANT TO REACH 250hz. The Monitor just arrived with a HDMI CABLE IF YOU DONT MIND GO FOR IT BUT YOU NEED TO BUY A DP CABLE SEPARATELY OTHER THAN THAT ITS A GREAT PURCHASE

Ps5 player. It’s very random but it does turn off sometimes I have no idea why I’ve had this monitor for 5 months and when I’m on cod it will turn off and power back on very randomly not so often but it does happen rarely but it still does and it does every time I play music I don’t know why it’s not the biggest issue ever but it’s still kinda weird that it’s guaranteed to turn off when I play music

Great Monitor
I have two of these monitors! The first one I ordered has 2 dead pixels but they’re not distracting enough, I ordered a second one to complete my dual-monitor setup and it arrived in great shape – no dead pixels at all. As most have said, make sure you enable the freesync feature on the monitor itself using the wheel on the back. No complaints!
