Can't go wrong for the price
If youre looking for a simple to use gaming monitor with great graphics and quality for a decent price, you found it. Also works perfectly for work PC setups. Unlike most monitors out there today, the stand is actually halfway decent. Its not super breakable and it is also adjustable! Screen is really flat and looks really sharp, theres not a bunch of ugly extra plastic all around the screen and on the back, so this thing takes up alot less room than some higher end monitors so keep this in mind. If you're looking for something with high end graphics (144 hz), then you'll want to spend the extra money for something better. But if you're not a streamer or youtuber or crazy gamer and you just like to play on your down time sometimes, then this monitor is perfect for you. BUY IT! You won't regret it!

One of the Best Monitors for WFH!
If you have the privilege to be working from home through this pandemic and you're lacking the equipment and you need 2 monitors then this is one of the best options. I've had these monitors since 2018 and they are still going strong. I purchased them when I started a new job at a private mortgage company as a processor and if you know anything about being a processor is that you need to use two screens for just about everything that you do. I purchased two of these monitors at Best Buy bc they were on sale for $90. I wanted something cheap and flat and wide enough so I can view everything I wanted to and these fit the bill. I chose these at the time bc I needed something cheap and something that was easy to s/u. Who knew 2 months and 13 days later I would be terminated by the mortgage company's president via text message. He originally told me that I could wfh and he would provide me with a laptop but he didn't so I went out and purchased these two monitors and the MS Surface Pro 2018. From the day I started, I did not take any time off. I would be asked to wfh bc I was salaried but he used that as a partial reason to terminate my employment. Fast forward two years and no jobs, I now work for one of the largest insurance company's in the Nation. I was hired as a processor for their Homeowner's Insurance Department. I just wanted a job that would provide me a solid career and stand the test of time during a pandemic like this one. I started in Feb 2020 and then on 3/30/20 we were all told to take our computers home- the Dell Optiplex 7050 which if you've worked for any corporations, you know this computer is a POC. The computer is about 6'x6" and didn't have anything but a whole bunch of USB, usb-c, display ports, and ethernet port. TBH, I thought the company was going to let me go since I was brand new to the company and they wouldn've lost that much money if they terminated me but they kept me on and I started working from home. I only had to bring home the computer itself which fit in my backpack along with my keyboard and mouse. I already had 2 monitors and wireless keyboard and mouse. I take it back, I was told to take home my headset. Most of my co-workers did not know what kind of internet they had, some did not even know how to connect to the internet, some had to pay for new service and everyone had to bring home their monitors from the office except for me since I already had two monitors and it was just too much trouble for me to bring home the company monitors bc they were big. I have to use a cheapo Logitech keyboard bc the computer didn't come with Bluetooth. I tried to buy a BT dongle for the work computer but it still did not work. It's ok. These monitors are better than my office monitors and just as wide and the resolution was just as clear. The only difference is that these monitors does not swivel and can't rotate to landscape. It also isn't compatible with the VESA mounts. I wished it did and I would be so happy with these monitors but I can't complain since I've been using them since 2018 on a daily basis. If you just need a monitor so that you can WFH and keep your job please consider these. It is well worth the money. I don't know if I would pay the current price but for $90/each I am more than happy. For 2yrs a computer or electric is considered to be obsolete or out of date but not this monitor. As you can see, they're still selling it and it costs more now then it did when I first bought them. Acer make good products and if you're on the fence, just go ahead and get it because if you're using it for work and you're just working with MS Word, Excel, PP and etc,. then this monitor will more than give you your money's worth. It's also got a 60mhz refresh rate and my son used to use one of my monitors when I wasn't using it to play on his XBOX 1S game and he said there was no lag. The only complaint is the fact it is missing the VESA mounting capabilities and speakers. Otherwise, these will be more than enough for any work related things you need to do. See below for photo's of both of the monitors that I purchased 2 yrs ago. I've been thinking about upgrading to an UW unit but since I have these two monitors and learned how to split the screens with my MX Master 3 mouse I really don't have a reason. These will continue to serve my needs and I will continue to use them as long as I can. You can barely notice the borders/chin and the branding is not overbearing. Good luck and stay safe!

Okay
This monitor is okay. It is a little pricey for the features. It does have small bezels which is nice but it boasts about being thin. Thin is nice but you lose out on some features. The stand is not adjustable and you cannot mount this monitor on a monitor arm or the wall.
