I have a GTX 1060 laptop, set up is easy and there was no need for me to calibrate anything, I even dare say this monitor looks better than my own laptop screen at 1080p. At first i thought it didn not support 75Hz and the colors were washed out and it was too bright, also on the nvidia panel it said 1080p at 60Hz however this is what you gotta do to fix it. "CALIBRATION" 1. Connect via HDMI 2. Open Display settings and make sure that they are set so that only the 2nd display is turned on, do not put duplicate or extend. 3. Open Nvidia control panel and go to "Change Resolution" 4. You will see two lists, one will say HD, UHD etc, the other one at the bottom will say "PC", (changing the first list will project your laptop screen to the second screen however your laptop is 60Hz and the monitor is 75Hz that is why its limited to 60Hz and colors are washed out, changing the second list will basically use your laptop to power up the monitor at full 75Hz 1080p with the right color calibration.) 5. On list two "PC" change the resolution to 1080p and 75Hz And there you go, now you can use your 75Hz monitor for gaming, make sure to change the settings indvidually in games to 75Hz or they will still run at 60Hz and the colors will be washed out. Now onto the review *** REVIEW *** The screen resolution is full 1920x1080p at 75Hz, the colors are very accurate, it looks no where near like a TN panel, I would say its in between a TN panel and an IPS panel but closer to IPS. It comes with speakers which are ok for the price but I recommend headphones or your own speakers which are probably better if you got this for gaming. This is what comes in the package - Monitor - 4 screws for mounting - Two screws for setting up the monitor (non adjustable height( - HDMI to VGA cable - VGA to VGA cable I really recommend this monitor even if not for gaming, its a great price for what you get and it even comes with two cables. However one thing to note is that the difference between 60Hz and 75Hz is hard to notice in games. Playing Witcher 3 and Rise of Tomb Raider at locked in 75FPS wasnt anything much more amazing than 60FPS. However it is still an improvement. One last thing to confider if you’re debating on a 75Hz vs 144Hz monitor - If you have a graphics card such as the GTX 770,970,1060 Most games (witcher, call of duty, battlefield wont go back 80 fps on ultra / high graphics) so you wont be able to take advantage of a 144Hz monitor, so I suggest this one. UNLESS you play on medium/low settings. - If you have a graphics card such as a GTX 770,780,980,1070 and above, I suggest the 144Hz monitor since these can run most tiles at well above 100FPS so you can take advantage of the monitor. *** UPDATE *** Earlier on the review I said the difference between 60Hz and 75Hz was negligible, I take it back. I played on my laptop which is limited to 60Hz and it feels bad and slugish compared to 75Hz, once you go higher refresh rate you can never go back Its one of those things you dont realise until its taken away, great improvement.

This is a really nice little monitor. I was not expecting much for a low-end monitor at a rock bottom price, but have to admit I am pleasantly surprised. Really, no cons at this price point. Pluses: 1. Very clear, sharp screen for a 1600 x 900 display. Has a better picture than a new 1920 x 1080 HP monitor I have. 2. Very good standard color saturation - not washed out at all. I did not feel the need to adjust color or brightness settings. 3. Good font clarity and sharpness. 4. Has integrated speakers, a nice surprise for such an inexpensive monitor, where many higher-end models dont include speakers. Speakers are not incredibly loud but are very clear and not tinny. The speakers work through the DVI to HDMI cable and there is no need for an extra audio cable. 5. Comes with a DVI-D to HDMI cable as well as a standard VGA to VGA cable. Monitor has a VGA output and two HDMI outputs, as well as audio outputs if you would rather not use the integrated speakers. 6. The monitor stand snaps to the base, and the stand screws into the monitor with just two screws. There is a strong hinge built in which allows easy tilting for your viewing preferences. Took a couple minutes to assemble. 7. Box comes with a screwdriver, so you dont need to have tools of your own. 8. Nice color-coded ports on the back. This is my first Sceptre monitor and based on this, I will be likely to consider this brand again. Very pleased.

Needed two new monitors for a new PC in the office. Went with this because it was the best value in terms of size vs price. Id also purchased these for clients in the past and heard they were happy with them. After seeing the complaints about the colors being washed out, I gave my monitors away and decided if there were any problems with these Id either live with it or fix it. Out of the box the monitors were fine. The only complaint I can come up with is that the VESA mounts are lower on the back due to the slim design. After looking at settings, I determined that for me as an IT manager I didnt need to recalibrate the screens at all. Granted, I spend most of my time looking at text documents, configuration pages for network equipment, and the accounting software my company uses. I couldnt speak to color calibration for individuals doing video or photo production. One thought on the others experiencing washed out colors - HDMI out on a computer kind of expects a TV. Televisions and Monitors will sometimes have different ranges for black levels, which can cause the screen to look washed out. If youre experiencing this, check the control panel for your graphics driver. You should be able to adjust black levels and fix the issue. This has been a driving factor in my preference for just about anything over HDMI. (Display Port is king, for what its worth.)

Install Flash Player The monitor is great for pc and console gaming. My PC pc is able to take advantage of the 75hz refresh rate, the auto power on and auto source switching is convenient. The audio out port also saves me a lot of effort with my setup. Where this device looses stars is the defects. There is an over brighten set of pixels, fortunately they are only visible on all white screens. There is also this mark that looks as though there is a piece of plastic on the screen. I am not some professional gamer or content creater so I dont want to go through the hassell or requesting a new one. Im still going to use it and appreciate the good things about it. 5 stars if it did not have these scars.

Just got two of these bad boys. pulled them out of the box added the thread extenders put them on my monitor tree. Set up was easy, resolution is perfect for my needs (Business). Did some initial setup with adjusting the view area of the screen but the auto adjustment made that very simple. I use the VGA connections so cant speak to the HDMI but for the Price these are amazing. One thing that I will mention is that they use a proprietary Power cord but that is more just for information it has a very large plug so you will need to account for that when planning your Power set up.

When I bought these monitors, I was looking for something big enough, good enough and cheap enough. These were perfect. They may not be best-in-class for color and contrast, but definitely not bad by any definition. I use them for programming, YouTube, and Office primarily, and they look great for that. If you a hard-core movie watcher/gamer and want the most superb image quality, maybe move on, but if youve just been thinking about doing a dual monitor setup, but didnt want to spend the money--just buy these. Theyre worth it.

When the monitor first arrived, colors were very washed out. After calibrating the monitor, color looks great. Bezels are not as thin as advertised by the pictures (Hate when manufacturers do that.) Use google to search for calibrating your monitor. It will walk you through calibrating the monitor if you are using Windows 10. Also make sure to go into windows display settings to set the monitor to 75hz. The monitor is smooth in gaming and I really can notice a bit of difference with 75hz. At $87 I would say that its worth it after calibration.

The first monitor I got had a few bright spots in it, I figured it was just fluke and asked to have a new one sent to me. The new one they sent me has 3 really apparent bright spots and 5 that the average user might not immediately notice. I work in the laptop refurb business and look at screen regularly to asses their value. Based on the standards we use these screens are the lowest level you can rate.

If its too good to be true it probable is. Several pixel spots on the screen, so I am returning it tomorrow (and I HATE returning things).

A very good value. I just needed a 20" monitor to replace one that had gone bad on a two-monitor system-I needed to match the size so that was important. I hadnt heard of Sceptre, but the reviews were positive, so I ordered one. It arrived in two days, well packaged and padded. I was impressed that a screwdriver and two different connector cables were included with the purchase. Assembly was easy and intuitive. Plugged it in and connected to my computer and it booted right up. Ive used it for one day and have been quite pleased. I imagine if it was side by side with a gaming display I might notice some quality disparities, but for my purposes this works extremely well. It takes up less space on my desk than the previous monitor while maintaining the same display area.
