Looking at the price tag of $210 for a great quality 1080p 144Hz IPS panel with HDR400 certification seems very appealing for many including me. Without much questioning, I ordered one along with a pre-built PC I got on Newegg. It came in a nice secure package with no empty space for it to wobble around inside, which is great. After installing it to the standing mount (super simple), I was able to fire this monitor up.
However, just a couple minutes after tweaking the settings, I noticed a single bright red pixel when the monitor was supposed to display white background. Yes, it was a dead pixel close to the center of the monitor.
I called Best Buy and was instructed to return it to the store and get a new one. So I did. I unboxed the second one and thankfully, there was no dead pixel. Yes, there's catch. There seems to be some sort of a dust or something stuck inside the panel in the dead center of the screen. I tried wiping it off gently with microfiber towel specifically for glass (softer and finer) only to find no luck.

After I bought one to begin my iRacing experience I lived it so much I added two more to make it feel like I was in a real race car. Perfect value at $209 each, Perfect picture, perfect color, just wonderful!

Shipped very fast but as soon as I loaded up a game I saw a dead pixel. Since the item was clearance, I’m assuming it was an open-box item and they neglected to check it before selling it. Really upset with BestBuy’s quality control...

This base looks like it's been knocked. I saw it as soon as I unpacked it. I don't think the display sent to me is brand new. And its screen is not parallel to my desktop, it's tilted forward.

Dear xyue, The monitor will tilt forward and back to a degree by placing one hand at the top center and the other at bottom center, and using a push-pull motion to tilt the monitor. If the monitor or stand are not in the condition expected, please contact the seller to inquire about the monitor and check for your swap or return options if the monitor is not suiting your needs. We appreciate you taking the time to write this review. Regards, Acer America

This is the perfect monitor for the price. The picture look good and games are super smooth. I recommend using the display port instead of hdmi and you may have to spend 5 minutes to calibrate the display to your liking. The brightness is plenty even for the bright room. I wish they included better stand but can’t complain for the price.

If I had to write a complaint, the screen is pretty bright, but it’s definitely not an issue when turned down. I’ve had mine for a couple of years now and I’m yet to have any real problems with it. It’s great!

It came red for me rather than blue in the photo and it's not height adjustable. The colors were really dark and almost black and white when I received it. It goes black when switching between tabs or games. It does provide the smooth feeling off 144 frames and you get the promised resolution of 1 ms response time. For this price of these basic specs, I would have expected more.

Has Really bad colors and brightness burnsssss even when it’s at 0 if ur in a dark room u will go blind. On the plus side it is PS5 and XBOX compatible and will run 120hz. The settings are quite weird and the stand is not height adjustable and is advertised as tillable but mine did not tilt forward or backwards.
