Sceptre 24" Curved 75Hz Gaming LED Monitor Full HD 1080P HDMI VGA Speakers, VESA Wall Mount Ready Metal Black 2019 (C248W-1920RN)

Comment

Got two of these, and theyre awesome! Sound isnt so great but I didnt buy these for sound. Picture is very good and the added 75hz is noticeable while gaming, 25% increase over 60hz. I wanted to buy three but I was worried about quality, now Im wishing I would have got three. Definitely recommend!

Model# C248W-1920RN First off, the actual monitor is nice. I bought two of them and they line up nicely. I have never had a curved screen before and I like it. But.... 1. This is NOT Edgeless as you can see from the pictures. Yes there is smaller casing around the edge of the monitor but the visible screen does NOT go to the edge. 2. Tried as I might I can not get these monitors to the refresh rate of 75hz, the highest I seem to get is 60hz. I have updated all drivers, tried multiple different cables, uninstalled drivers and software and reinstalled it again. I have even lowered the resolution to see if the claimed 75hz works at a lower resolution and there is no sign of it. So, two out of the three reasons I bought these monitors was a lie.

I bought this curve for its size and price and was worth it. Everything was very easy to set up and it looked really great! However, once i got everything set up, i realized there was something on my screen. I tried moving my screen but it was still there. Then my reaction was ...****!. Then i went to try to feel it with my fingers but the outer screen feels smooth like well...a screen. So the only thing left is that it was internal....sadlife

I bought 2 of them and prob will buy another one. They look amazing the only thing I did not like about em is the stand its was very pain to screw the stand the space between pole and monitor is really small I cannot tell you how many times I drop the screws inside other than that its amazing small price to pay to have quality monitors to enjoy the gaming.

Trick 1: Call the color "Black Metal". Is it metal? No, its not. Its cheap, rough plastic. Trick 2: The two monitors I got had been repackaged and resealed at the factory. Why are they sold as new? Trick 3: Edgeless? TOTAL LIE. There is nothing "edgeless" about these. 1 of them had a dead pixel out of the box the other one has a super-bright corner. These are trash.

its a pretty lil thing for sure, color scheme is decent but nothing crazy like a 4k IPS display it doesnt POP and wow by any means but it gets the job done. the power cord is fairly short so be sure to have a power strip or outlet with 3 feet of placement. My biggest pet peeve about this monitor is the fact that it shakes everytime I type on my keyboard, or if i make rapid movements with my mouse. The neck of the stand is soo skinny for the width of the screen that it just looks like a big bobble head on my desk. now maybe if you have one of those computer desks with the extending shelf to place your keyboard on you may not have this problem but my screen sits right in front of my keyboard and it can give me a headache sometimes if my screen is shaking all the time. The sound on this units is...horrible. but who buys a monitor for speakers anyway right? I either use my headphones or I swithc the sound setting to use my default speakers on the laptop instead. 75hz refresh rate is not very noticable to me when im playing games but that may be a personal thing. I once had a gsync 144hz montior and i always compare screens to that. Doesnt come close. And for some games for some reason the game will freeze whenever Im changes video settings like vsync or windowed to fullscreen settings. BO4 wont even go past the loading screen when I have this monitor plugged into my laptop. There may be some settings Id have to change on the game client itself but who wants to go through that hassle. Overall I have to say i am kind of meh about it, its a 120 dollar screen what can you say, the picture quality is great, no dead pixels, sound sucks, wobbles way to much cuz its soo light, and few hiccups with getting games to work with the monitor without having to go into settings and manually changing things around.

I have never had a Curved monitor, but after trying out this monitor I can assure you I will never go back to standard flat monitors. It looks great, and has very slight wobble. The only thing I can complain about is the glare, but if you turn down the room lighting it isnt noticeable. The Monitor speakers are awful, dont use them. Overall, I am very happy with the product and the speed of the shipping!

I think most of the issues here are dead pixels in other reviews .. which happens with any LED or LCD screen just by chance. The monitor came in and was thoroughly packaged. I unboxed this thing and hooked it up immediatly to check dead pixels and everything was good. Im happy with the quality of the product. It had a spray cost steal back plate which makes it all the more sturdier and is very sleak. As for display, its everything you want with a 1080p monitor at 75hz but saves a few bucks and is curved at that. Highly recommend and will be buying future monitors from sceptre

I have a dual monitor setup with older monitors. One died so I figured why not replace both...When I started to look, I was surprised at how cheap (inexpensive) these things were! The monitors I replaced were double what I paid for one of these! I had three criteria that I could not deviate from: 1) Had to be VGA connectors because thats what my video card has. 2) Had to have VESA wall mount because thats what my dual monitor stand uses. 3) they had to be larger than the original. This monitor does all that and more! And getting a curved monitor is an unexpected bonus! While I havent run any diagnostic apps to check for stuck pixels, and I dont use them for gaming, I am very surprised with the quality. Although, it was a little misconceiving when I pulled the protective plastic off the logo and one of the letters came off with the plastic (it now says "SCEPT E")

Until doing some research, I didnt even know backlight bleed was a thing. Ive never owned a monitor or TV with this issue, but apparently in many newer products, its very common. I thought it was a defect, so I returned the monitor and got a replacement and the replacement had the same issue. Its only noticeable on dark and white screens, but its annoying.
