Sceptre 24" Curved 144Hz Gaming LED Monitor Edge-Less AMD FreeSync DisplayPort HDMI, Metal Black 2019 (C248B-144RN)

Comment

So, when I got the monitor it was working fine, except for one instance where the screen got all fuzzy and started to have intermittent blacking of the screen, a simple restart fixed that though, but out of nowhere the monitor just started to go really dim and then everything stopped working except for one line of pixels. So now Ill have to go through the long and arduous process of returning the monitor and getting a new one. I doubt it was the sellers fault but rather scepters fault since it seems like it was a manufacturing defect. Ill change my review to a better score once I get a new monitor

I wish I can write no stars because they shipped it broken and I had to replace it for a new one which would be coming and now I have to return this which is a waste of time ugh! Can’t u guys just take it easy on shipping and not throw the box and smash it! Just take it easy like chill the box was nearly half broken and when the guy gave it to me he did not even look at me and just walk away..... I was like umm dude it’s grateful if u can say have a nice day.... HOWEVER!!!! It’s a great monitor I’m replacing it so I can get a new one that works perfectly fine so once I get that I’m going to be playing games!!! It’s perfect but the screen material is not that okay! Make sure to not stab the screen or punch it or move it around to much make sure to not use a wet cloth cuz that’s what the manual said

Overall, I am impressed with this monitor. I have had Sceptre products in the past before and they are budget friendly and you get what you pay for. With that being said though you get the bang for your buck minus some compromises as with any purchase you make. ---Pros: Going from a 60hz to 144hz monitor is a night and day difference when playing games. AMD FreeSync works well. Colors can take some adjusting right out of the box, but in my opinion that is a compromise of what you pay for. Great options for inputs. You have a DisplayPort input in the back along with two HDMI ports. You can achieve 144mhz on HDMI, but you must have a later model HDMI cable and you have to plug it in the one labled 144mhz. Built-in speakers, but dont expect to get blown away with the sound. Not worth taking a star away because that is to be expected at the price point. ---Cons: Like another viewer has mentioned I did notice that the monitor may black out. I had two of these monitors and one of them would randomly black on and off and made me restart my system. However, after use I havent seen the issue return. The other monitor never showed the symptoms so I guess it will be hit and miss. The monitor is not true edge to edge. I didnt notice it until a few days after use, but lose about a 1/4" between the image displayed and the plastic. If you are into your game you will not notice, but it is noticeable once you are aware of it. Personally, if you advertise "edge-less" truly make it that way. --Overall: I would definitely recommend this monitor. If you are just getting into gaming, or on a budget this is one to get so that you wont break the bank with your purchase. Also, from my experience Sceptre products are pretty good and will last as long as you take care of them. Dont hesitate on this one! Quick note to Amazon: Great customer service on resolving issues. The first monitor I received was left outside my door and was rained on. Moisture did get inside of the box, but the monitor worked. I wasnt comfortable with keeping it so I contacted Amazon and they worked with me in resolving the issue without any hassle. Kudos to Amazon customer service!

I had originally bought the 75hz version of the monitor and was underwhelmed. I then noticed this particular model at 144hz and supporting AMD Freesync for more or less the same price. Returned old one, got this one. All in all the Monitor is really good, but I wont say great. Setup is about what youd expect for a monitor, picture quality is good, a tad on the fuzzy side though. The AMD FreeSync works great I will say. Toggled it on and was able to crank the settings I normally would have had to turn down.

I got this monitor on June 8th , I ordered it international , i paid for fast shipping so it came in literally 3 days to where im at. I thought since people complained so much about it , i was going to receive it broken since i ordered it international , but I was wrong. I got it in perfect condition , Ive been playing on it everyday ever since I got it. I love it so far. The only bad thing about it is the colors , so you have to play around with it ALOT to change it to how you like the colors , the other issue is the buttons on the back of the screen when you try changing the color settings for any settings the screen randomly turns off or the buttons stop working. I didnt find it as a big issue for me cause I knew It wouldnt be perfect , I honestly dont care about that , as long as theres no dead pixels and it works great for gaming. I would give this product 5 stars just cause of the fact that its a really good monitor and really affordable. If you dont mind a couple struggles with the colors and buttons on the back of the screen turning off the screen when changing the settings then this will be perfect. I don think this problem happens to everyone seems like each monitor has its own problems. Which in the end isnt a big deal cause I still managed to get the right colors going for me. If youre still worried about this monitor I would just say go for it dont be scared. Its a really good monitor. I was searching for so long to find a good monitor and this is the one. Trust me this is the best youll get for the price its offering. Keep in mind that other monitors that are more expensive have issues too. No monitor is perfect each monitor has its own problems so dont think buying a "name brand" monitor or an expensive one wont have issues. Trust me they all do just depends on what you care with and what you cant. This monitor has 0 issues when it comes to gaming and refresh rate. The smoothest monitor you can get if you ask me. It was honestly a life changing experience to go from 60hz laptop monitor to this monitor. My hp laptop monitor colors and picture is trash compared to this monitor.

At the price this monitor sales for I expected some form of compromise. Rather in looks, quality, or performance. However, I was not disappointed at all. Everyrhing is supurb from the casing to the super responsive screen.

I am coming off of an 8 year old Viewsonic monitor, so I may not be the best judge for cutting edge monitors, but as far as my needs go (occasional gaming; Apex, League) this monitor really fit the bill. Lightweight, works great with my desk mount. 144 Hz works via displayport or HDMI. Looks sleek, and I like how the ports on the back are clearly marked and easily accessible. Glad I went with this monitor vs the other ones in its bracket (which for a $50-100 increase, dont seem quite worth it). Now if this monitor lasts as long as my old one, Ill be sticking with Sceptre for a long time.

I bought this monitor skeptical of whether it would preform well or not as I have never used scepter products. I was happy surprised with its performance. Although for it only being $170 there are draw backs such as no height adjustment but there is tilt adjust. Would recommend for anyone on a tighter budget.
