PS5 on this 31" monitor SO MUCH better than 43" TV
IF you plug in a PS5 and notice this monitor has a greyed out screen and colors are off - where black isn't black it is grey - see below on the settings to adjust. It isn't this monitor - it is the settings on your PS5! Easily fixed in the settings mentioned below. I originally went to Best Buy to purchase a new television for my young adult son when his 43" television display went black on the left side due to the backlight failing. He asked that it be replaced with a monitor instead of a television since he rarely watches television and mostly plays his PS5 on it. We agreed and he couldn't be happier. He had the money for the 27" Acer Nitro that was on sale for $200. I saw that this 31.5 curved monitor was on sale and urged him to get this one instead. The difference in size between this one at 31.5" and the other at 27" doesn't seem like a big deal, but once we had the two side by side, you could truly see playing video games on this one would be much easier. The difference in the size of the basketball alone was well worth it. We weren't sure about the curved screen, but we were about to find out. Once we got this home and plugged in we quickly realized that there is a BIG difference playing high speed video games on this monitor versus using the television. The television which was a 4K 1080 (large name brand I cannot mention here) we found out was only 60Hz. This monitor is 180Hz! The PS5 is only 120Hz so as long as we had at least 120Hz, anything above this is a moot point. We thought it was the internet causing lag and ghosting on the television when he played NBA2K on the television. It turned out to be the television. This monitor is crystal clear and no lagging or ghosting at all! Installation was super easy. Take it out of the box, connect the power cord on the back and snap on the stand. You are good to go. I will mention one very important thing and the reason I am doing this review. If you are going from a TV to a monitor to play on a playstation, you will think there is something wrong with this monitor because the display will look grey-ed or grayed out. It is not the monitor. Go in and adjust the settings. You MUST go into the playstation settings and DISABLE HDR on the PS5. Go to Settings> Screen and Video > Video Output> HDR Change this to OFF. You may have to fix the settings on the PS5 where you see the black box and gray cogs wheel and the white box with the gray cogs wheel to make sure your contrast and brightness weren't adjusted prior due to your television settings. I hope this helps you during your set up. We thought the monitor was to blame at first and almost went back to the store with the monitor. It isn't the monitor. It takes two minutes to fix the settings. The only thing that we wish is that this came with a remote control. To change the settings or turn the monitor on or off is difficult to get to. Acer should have put the buttons on the front where they are easier to hit. Oh wait, I do have to mention "difficult to get to" - Acer the plugs in the back. The power plug and HDMI plug. These were VERY difficult to plug into the back with the monitor upright. We all know to never lay a monitor or TV on its back or front. To keep the monitor upright at all times. When doing this and keeping the monitor on a desk, it is difficult to get the cords into the back of the monitor. My son's room isn't very bright with lighting - it was the two of us and flashlights and we still had a difficult time. Please make it easier to plug the cords into the back of future models. The integrated speakers are appreciated. That is something else this model had that the 27" model did not. The curved screen has helped reduce eye strain. My son mentioned he likes it a lot better than the flat screen television and finds he rarely rubs his eyes now. This 31.5" monitor is much, much better than the 34" monitor due to the ratio on the 34" monitor. 21:9 is really difficult to get used to and the height throws things way off. If you are trying to decide between this monitor and the 34" 21:9 - choose this one.

Great monitor
It was very easy to assemble out of the box and it has been working great for me. I upgraded from a 75hz monitor and you can definitely see the difference. Gameplay and cutscenes are much smoother and clearer. It also has a lot of really cool built in settings like a screen crosshair, blue light filters, and you can customize it to what you're using it for. Its been a great monitor so far.

Awesome
Amazing upgrade to my standard monitors. Love the aux output so my devices (Xbox series, Mac Pro, and my work laptop) all share the same speakers. Love the high refresh rate and size. Definitely took some getting used to if you are going from 2 monitors to 1 large one, but it is a game-changer. The only drawback is that the controls are kind of clunky with changing inputs. Wish they just had an easy input switch, or even a remote would be awesome. But for the price, it is awesome.
