acerNitro 27 Inch WQHD 2560 x 1440 IPS Gaming Monitor | AMD FreeSync | Up to 180Hz Refresh | Up to 0.5ms | DCI-P3 95% | HDR 10 Support | One Display Port 1.2 & Two HDMI 2.0 | KG271U N3bmiipx

The media could not be loaded. This is a review after 3 months of usage, spoiler alert, I’m pretty happy with it.*I bought this 27inch 1440p 180Hz (KG271U N3bmiipx) monitor for around 170 usd with offer and taxes.Pros:1. 2K, very fast 180hz refresh rate, with built in speakers for 170 USD.2. Pretty high color range (DCI-P3 95%), not verified, but to naked eye, love the vivid colour accurate display, this was important to me.3. IPS screen, meaning good viewing angles, also important for good viewing experience.4. Decent HDR for an IPS LCD budget monitor.5. Didn't notice any flickering.Reasons for asterisk:1. In standard or other modes, even when set to 100, brightness feels low in well lit environments. Turning HDR mode on solves this issue, probably because of increased peak brightness, but this makes it too bright in dark environments, you won't be able to adjust screen brightness in HDR mode. Switching between standard and HDR mode felt a little tedious.2. Overshooting is noticeable to naked eye if overdrive setting is set as extreme. Recommend setting it to minimum, or off, then it’s not at all noticeable.3. Speakers are like what you’d expect in your typical gaming monitors. Pretty mediocre, will get the job done. They lack any base or instrument clarity or separation. In movies or songs, vocals are pretty crisp, but the background music sounds pretty low. Could be solved with headphones or speakers.4. HDMI connections only supports upto 144hz.5. Lack of height adjustment for stand.6. Felt like a thick monitor, build quality is decent, all plastic, does not give you premium feels, but good for it's price.At this point you might be thinking, why did this guy give 5 stars when the cons list is bigger than pros. It's because I compared this with similarly priced Sansui ESA-G27F6Q and Arzopa M1RC side by side, and overall Acer seemed like the best pick in this price range.

This monitor is huge and beautiful. The box also came with a display port cable which is awesome, with that you can get full 180 hz refresh rate! With HDMI it's only 144 hz which is still really good. The display stand sucks though so get a monitor arm or something.

Amazing monitor with a big 27in screen, it works flawlessly and it is cheaper compared to other monitor and the brand is well known which is a good sign of a good purchase. Certainly would buy again 10/10

This monitor has great quality, and works wonderful. The picture quality is so good, and clear. My son uses it for gaming, and has no complaints. it is very light, and easy to use. Highly recommend, especially for the price.

This monitor works great and getting it on sale made it even better. 1440p is all you will ever need especially for console gaming. It runs up to 180hz on display port but hdmi it can reach 120hz easily allowing you to maximize your response time for your console and give yourself more time to react. You can quickly switch between different modes for different games and even create user specific modes that you can adjust to your hearts desire. All of the display settings are easily adjustable through the analog button on the rear of the monitor. Also the monitor has settings that can actively adjust your picture for different situations in games (I currently cannot recall the term for it). You can adjust the brightness, saturation, and more. One of my favorite features is the different display presets such as low blue light that can help when working late on the monitor. My only demerit of the monitor is the stand itself is kind of flimsy and is not adjustable. I would advise getting a mount for your monitor of some sort if you are to purchase this monitor. Otherwise this is an amazing monitor I got for an amazing price during Prime Day Deals.

I finally bit the bullet and got a nice higher refresh rate monitor. this was in my price range and so i snagged it. I love it. my other 1440 monitors don't home up to the picture quality and games just look stunning.

This was an upgrade from my 2022 LG monitor. The sharpness and quality exceeded that of my previous. The setup was simple and superb. Have yet to use it for gaming but am highly satisfied.

Great monitor at a great price. I priced out similar monitors at the same specs and literally couldn’t find anything better for the price. This is all you need for gaming!
