Q: Can I run USB to USB port on my sound bar for audio? Otherwise he has no audio out for his PS4

A: No. The display only has a HDMI port and a VGA port. No speakers.

Q: Does this monitor have built-in speakers? What about 3.5mm jack sound output?

A: No built in speakers, no 3.5mm jack sound output

Q: I just bought this monitor and it has no physical buttons to adjust brightness. How do you perform those functions?

A: In actuality, the power button functions to adjust brightness as well. I discovered this by accident when powering the monitor off. I noticed a bit of 'wiggle' in the power button and moved it to one side which, ultimately, displayed the brightness menu onto the monitor's screen. It's ridiculous that this simple information is not included with the provided usage instructions nor on the manufacturer's website. Obviously, the support staff doesn't know either. Hopefully, this help everyone.

Q: I know that the screen tilts up and down, but does it tilt very much or only a little bit?

A: It can tilt a lot up it seems, but it can't tilt down very far because of the stand.

Q: Do I have to have another computer/laptop or any of the sort to use this or can I js get a keyboard and mouse?

A: This is a display device only so you will need a laptop/PC/gaming console in order to use this monitor.

Q: Can it turn vertically?

A: This monitor does not support pivoting to portrait mode.

Q: Is this monitor Mac mini compatible

A: Yes, the Acer KG270 monitor will work with a Mac Mini, as this and most monitors are plug-and-play with Macs, but you'll need the right cable (USB-C to DisplayPort or HDMI) and may need adapters depending on your Mac Mini's ports.
