    A HIDDEN GEM!

    I've had this for the better part of a year now, and I think it's a great time to review it. Overall, I think this is one of the best bang for your buck monitors you can ever buy. For it's price it's one of the best gaming monitors you can get. Pros: 1) Great coloring, if I'm not mistaken it's an IPS Panel, so great for editing videos or photos, or just watching videos. 2) The 180hz refresh rate with 1ms response time is just amazing for the price. When I used to game heavily (college coming around the corner gotta lock in), I really loved the monitor when playing games. It ran really smoothly. 3) Obviously, the pricing. I know I already said this a lot but it's really just great for what you're paying. Now there is ONE very minor con, and I MEAN MINOR: - It wobbles, I mean for the price, you can't expect a great monitor stand when they really try to give you a good screen, but a monitor mount should be an easy fix. Overall, this is definitely a solid monitor and you won't regret the purchase!

    You should get one

    I bought this monitor specifically for my PS5 Pro, and it is a huge upgrade from a standard TV. The 1ms response time and ability to hit 120Hz in supported games makes competitive titles incredibly smooth and responsive. It perfectly supports FHD 120FPS gaming. The colors are great for an IPS panel, and the setup was quick. While it's not a 4K screen, the speed and low input lag are exactly what I needed for console. gaming.

    Best budget monitor for your gamer!

    For his birthday, my son asked for the monitor, and I’m glad he did! At around $115, this monitor can fit small budgets, but is powerful, with 180hz, making your game feel smooth! It also has a good size at 24’ inches, wide enough to enjoy the game with view! It has two HDMI ports, along with a DisplayPort and a headphone jack to plug a headset in. Overall, my little gamer really enjoys it, still holding up to this day!
