I've been having the hardest time trying to figure out if I should get one of the new OLED 27in monitors or this. I got the LG OLED and while it was beautiful the matte finish and lack of brightness led me to return it. This monitor preforms (to me) 95% as good as that OLED, except I have piece of mind with regard to burn-in. Blacks looks great in HDR thanks to the FALD, and the brightness makes everything pop to a level that will make you forget about OLED. This is also a 4k monitor vs all the current OLEDs being 2k so images inherently look better. *In extreme cases of contrast there is minimal blooming as you can see from the picture of the kettle, not enough for me to justify 300+ more for the 2k oled alternatives. The only few bad things I can say about it are the OSD is complete garbage and an absolute hassle to deal with, also the VESA mount is circular on the back and I couldn't get my arm mount to fit it. If you're having a hard time deciding between this and the OLED models, I would suggest this over that unless you can get the OLED on a good sale and with a warranty to protect yourself from burn in.

This review is for the Acer Nitro XV275K P3biipruzx 27-inch monitors. I was originally looking at buying a single 32 inch OLED monitor but ultimately decided against that due to my concerns with burn-in and OLED general nit dimness (as this was primarily to be used in an office environment with a window facing the sun). I bought two monitors to set up in a dual monitor configuration in my office. I’m not a gamer but I’m a project manager that works in the Heavy Civil Construction Engineering and Architecture industry so I frequently open visual schematics, programs, etc. where I need a good vivid display for renderings, blueprints, etc., etc. I chose this monitor mainly because of its nits count as per as per rtings.com. My previous 22 inch dell monitors capped out at 250 nits at 1080p, 60hz so it was time for a major upgrade after 7 years. I was really pleased with these monitors – I did not use Acer’s Stands as I wanted to mount these on my own aftermarket setup. Instead, I opted to mount the monitors on an Aftermarket Freestanding Dual Monitor Stand. Unfortunately, because of the way the monitor is designed, I had to buy specialized 3D Printed VESA adapters for this model no. to get the monitors to stay attached to my aftermarket monitor stands. One thing to be mindful of is that it seems there’s variations in *some* of the panels. While both monitors I got are exceedingly bright, despite being in the same mode with same brightness and having exactly the same OSD settings – one of the monitors is noticeably brighter than the other – and its probably due to the IPS panel lottery (Just something to be aware of if you’re going to buy these monitors as a pair). I find it a negligible difference for my use cases, but I can see those with OCD on these types of things finding it an issue. I’m running both monitors in 4K, 160hz connected via DisplayPort to a Thunderbolt 4 Docking Station w/ a Samsung Galaxy Book4 Pro 14 Inch Laptop (a 14th Gen Intel Core Ultra 7 Processor w/ 32 GB RAM). It’s working very smoothly. I did find colors to be dull right of the box, so I tinkered w/ the OSD to get monitor settings as per my preferences. Once configured with the right settings, the brightness and “pop” is on par with my Samsung Laptop’s Built-In AMOLED Screen which I was really surprised by. I was getting 163 ppi which is excellent for reading PDF's, Word Docs, Excel sheets, and similar documents. This is a good alternative to OLED as I think I will wait a few more years for that pc monitor technology to mature before investing in it. The OSD is def frustrating to navigate with, but, if you aren't going to be using all that often and keep your monitor on generally stationary settings, you should be fine. If you frequently change up the "mode" on your monitors, you might want to look elsewhere. Minus the VESA Design Flaw and the OSD nuisances, this is a decent monitor for casual and office use (my primary use cases).

I'll start this off by saying if you want a Mini LED 4k 144hz+ monitor get this one! This uses the same panel as another brands mini LED monitor, but this one uses an OEM lighting matrix and not the open cell design and the other brand is hardly ever in stock! And sure the chinese made ones may have 1000+ lighting zones but those are cheap looking and use cheap build materials. If recycled DeLorean's is your thing power to ya! Also If you ever needed support with warranty, I would not trust those brands. With Acer at least you can assure you will get decent customer support. This monitor is built with nice textured plastics and the base of the stand is metal. The overall design of the monitor and RGB implementation is very nice and not over the top gamer looking like the others Imo. My only complaint with the physical aspect of the monitor as others have pointed out, is the OSD buttons are a bit slow and clunky. But what they did not mention is Acer has a display widget to control some of your most used basic settings like picture quality and brightness straight from Windows. Besides, if your like me, you'll set it up once and leave it, no need to keep changing settings. The OSD itself is not the greatest, but it gets the job done. Some of the settings are hidden like changing 144hz to 160hz, Max brightness and changing the ambient light color modes on the back RGB strip, so just look around at all the options. Picture quality is superb! Colors pop ands are vibrant, the Mini LED's makes blacks look deep, 4k is nice and crisp and 160hz is super smooth to navigate. Someone said the HDR is not bright? Let me tell you it is blinding! Idk if that person does not have it enabled in Windows and the OSD or what but its too bright at times when viewing HDR videos and games. The Mini LEDS do have a little of a halo effect if its dark in the room or the screen is black with white text, but its not much worse then my MBP 14 with 2000+ lighting zones. Also image looks washes if you view from the side, but I always sit in front of my screen. Overall, yeah its not perfect but at the price this is the best monitor with these specs atm.

Great monitor for the price. Can't beat it. As far as quality goes this monitor has it all. The ppi of this monitor makes text extremely sharp and that density makes details pop on this 27 inch screen. The HDR was also sharp and that density makes details pop on this 27 inch screen. The HDR was also shocking for a miniLED backlight. With quantum dot color this really does a fantastic job as a display.

What a great monitor this is and for $549 when on sale it is a steal! I always go with LG but I decided to give this a shot and I am not disappointed. The picture quality is awesome, especially when playing newer games. Very minimal glow unless you're looking for it. Hooking it up to your PlayStation at first you might not be so impressed but once you change the settings it's a whole different story. I turned OFF the HDR on my PlayStation and turned it on in the monitor settings to AUTO. Max brightness is ON and after just reduce it to 78. Super sharpness is off as everything nowadays is 1080p to 4k so no need for artificial sharpness. The UI settings are a bit outdated but how many times are you going to be changing them? Overall the colors are spot on, nothing oversaturated and very sharp images. Highly, recommend and worth the shot!

Bought this to play on PS5 & figured it will be good for when i eventually get another gaming PC rig. Everything works great on this & i would say is an amazing alternative to OLED, I have two OLED TV’s (65” C1 & 77” B2) & the blooming is so minimal on this that I rarely ever notice it & the trade off is having some insane highlights, calibrating the HDR in the PS5 software felt like staring into headlights lol

This is an excellent properly HDR display, and for the price I paid for it - $600 - I would easily recommend it to anyone with the system to drive it (essentially only a 4090 right now), however that does come with a caveat that the OSD is pretty bad, and there's currently a bug where whenever you switch inputs, enter and exit exclusive fullscreen, or turn the screen off and on with HDR enabled Super Sharpness gets enabled regardless of your setting on the display. You can disable it by toggling it in the settings on the OSD but it's frustrating, even if it only takes a few seconds every time. If Acer can fix this bug than almost all of my complaints will be solved.

The auto HDR is somewhat clunky since it reverts to SDR when adjusting HDR settings in Windows (and from something else I don't recall, but I turned off Auto HDR after receiving it). A few months ago, it refused to display, but I believe the issue was with Nvidia's drivers, as my other monitor displayed fine. Otherwise, haven't adjusted much of the other settings, and it works well with my laptop when connected via USB-C. There is some blooming around bright content with a dark background.

I got this monitor after returning an even more expensive one because it wasn't bright enough and only 1440p This one is 4k with amazing colors and brightness. Almost the perfect monitor.

I was skeptical at first becauseof the price but im glad i bought it. Ive owned it for over a yeat now and i couldnt be happier. I sometimes catch myself havi g to squint because it gets so bright. Great looking monitor.

Wonderful monitor for my PS5 gaming experience! Price is more than worth it for what you’re getting. I’ve had no issues with the monitor and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for 4k 120hz, HDMI 2.1 capabilities. My PS5 gaming experience has never felt so luxurious. Pair it with the dual sense edge that I also purchased from Best Buy, it doesn’t get any better than this!

Purchased this gaming monitor as my main gaming display. I’ve moved from living room PS5 gaming to my office and use this monitor both for work from home days and gaming evenings. The monitor pulls double duty for me and hasn’t had any issues. The display looks great when playing Modern Warfare III, Resident Evil 4 Remastered, and any PS5 game I throw at it. Highly recommend it and am happy with my purchase.

this has been one of the best non oled monitors i’ve ever used. highly recommend to someone looking for a 4k monitor that’s the best looking non oled monitors you can buy. close to oled quality at half the price!

This monitor is great for the price I got it for ($550on Black Friday) but unfortunately in less than a month I got some dead pixels on the screen. Was a pretty good monitor besides that.

. Though not as great as OLED, it still offer great HDR experience on ps5. The main downside is out-of-date control panel. Otherwise, it is a solid gaming monitor.

I got this for my boyfriend for Black Friday/cyber Monday and he loves it! He wanted a new 4k montior with higher resolution, larger frame size, and better specs for gaming and this monitor was exactly what he wanted! All of his gamer friends are jealous!

Amazing colors and response time for not being an OLED. This monitor, for the money, is outstanding. No complaints, no regrets.

Very good monitor, it has every hookup, like display port, 2 hdmi 2.1, usb-c (90watt charing) i got it for 599.99 plus tax, and its a ver good deal even at full price

I’ve never imagined 4K gaming at these frame rates! Incredible capability this monitor brings.

It’s fantastic for the price I paid. However, it lacks sufficient LED zones to achieve a striking contrast. OSD is just straight up awful
