​The Sceptre IPS 24” Gaming Monitor is an absolute standout. This is a great monitor that delivers excellent performance and, best of all, it's not overpriced like the competition. ​It performed so well for my mixed use—daily browsing, professional work, and gaming—that I didn't hesitate to purchase a second one to complete my dual-monitor setup! ​The IPS panel provides sharp image quality and great colors, which is perfect for my work tasks and general use. When it comes to gaming, the high refresh rate and fast response time make the action smooth and responsive. ​For anyone seeking a highly versatile monitor that offers premium features, excellent reliability, and unbeatable value, this Sceptre model is the answer. I am now running two of them and couldn't be happier. Highly recommended!

PROS: The picture and color depth. Especially for price point!!!!! Worth every penny!! This monitor blew me away. Yes, I know it's 1080P but for better FR I'm thoroughly satisfied with this monitor. I did have to change settings to get picture brighter and turn on other features I use I'm a huge fan of Sceptre monitors, they are the only ones I've owned. The speakers are awful but that is NOT why I got it!! The picture quality and brightness at 320nitts according to Sceptre's website. The size is perfect for me, not too big I don't find myself having to constantly move my head or scan outside peripheral vision. Makes for a better experience during fast-paced shooter games. Of course this can be obtained by distancing myself from the monitor. So if you're sceptical of it just buy it. It's worth it!! Plus, it's Amazon it's not like they won't honor an exchange or whatever. CONS: I will say the only negative this about ALL Scepter monitors had the power cord course a MAJOR update. It's not very long of a cord and the power brick is awkward and large. The stand was no issue for me since I use a different one but the included one is effective just don't expect to wiggle it around.

Love my gaming monitor, it was easy to set up, and it looks amazing. I can finally play my games at 1440p, it was not very expensive for what you get.

Nice image quality at a decent 165hz refresh rate! I can see the backlighting when viewing darker images and, while it was quite annoying and almost deal breaking at first, my eyes have basically gotten used to it and I barely notice it anymore. I'd honestly be willing to buy another one for a second monitor!

I've been using this for a few days now, overall it's a great product (especially on sale at $120). I'm glad I took the chance on a brand I've never heard of. Rumor has it that this monitor is using the same panel as some $200 monitor sold by ASUS, which is what really sold me on trying an unknown brand. This is replacing an older 60Hz TN monitor for me, and I've only used TN panels (It's been a long time since I bought a monitor). So maybe take this with a grain of salt. I've also been using the monitor defaults for testing it out. Pros: No frills or gimmicks. Just a monitor that displays an image. On the back every video input is clearly labeled like in the image, and says exactly what version of HDMI each port supports. Instead of guessing, or looking up the manual. Bezel is almost non-existent. Stand is made out of metal, just a nice touch. Color quality is excellent out of the box, I haven't even bothered calibrating colors yet. Blacks are actually black. Whites are blinding, but white. Blue really pops, Red and Green seem good but don't pop as much as blue. The color quality between the TN panels and IPS is night and day better. General image quality is crisp and clear. Text looks crisp, I'm noticing minor details in shadows from movies and games I couldn't see before. The DPI on this monitor seems much higher than my previous TN. Or its just the difference between how TN and IPS pixels are made? Image quality in motion is excellent. By default the Overdrive setting is set to "Medium" and it has some very minor ghosting visible in the Blur Busters test, but I haven't noticed any ghosting at all while playing any games, even FPS games. I have no idea what the response time is when overdrive is set to medium, but it seems low enough to not think about. I actually forgot I hadn't changed it until typing this. 165Hz over Display Port is a nice bonus. Adaptive Sync works as expected, even on an Intel GPU. On Intel Arc the "Variable Refresh Rate Range" supports 48Hz - 165Hz. Though IIRC FreeSync is supposed to support as low as 30Hz. This may just be an Intel support issue. Cons: The monitor is scary thin. The top half of the monitor is basically just a plastic cover for the back of the panel. There is no structure holding the top half of the panel. I'm worried I'm going to bend the panel when adjusting the tilt. On one hand it's really impressive how thin this monitor is, on the other hand it just feels very fragile. Bending your screen while adjusting the tilt would have to be the most stupid way of breaking your monitor of all time. If it falls over somehow, it's 100% going to damage the panel. There's just no structure protecting the panel IMO. Perhaps on the next version Sceptre should add a little structural rigidity for peace of mind. Stand is comically short. Though it is quite wide so it isn't tipping over easily. PS Shout out to the seller, who shipped immediately. The package arrived like 5 days early. I had to sign for it, so FedEx didn't just leave my brand new monitor on the porch. Which I appreciate.

Probably one of the best gaming monitors ive purchased especially for the vault. Has somewhat restricted viewing angle with the stock stand but it can be wall mounted arm mount etc. Very easy to setup and go threw all the settings. Fit my area nicely and overall wasn't to large or out of place in its space.

I have two of these monitors. I bought the first long ago. It had mobility and tilt range issues, a so-so menu, so-so speakers, but otherwise a good monitor at a good price. I propped it up and it was suitable. I bought the second hoping to get a color match between my monitors, but was shocked to see it didn't match! Shocked more though, because I noted that the frequency for the screen was also higher! 165 to 180 Hz. The company had addressed the tilt issues, had updated the menu, and otherwise proved themselves to listen to customer feedback. So-so speakers still, but I don't get monitors for speakers so that doesn't matter to me. I took a chance on this company and I am glad I did. I wasn't pleased to not get the color match I sought, but I got it reasonably close adjusting the levels between the two. I am also happy for the improvements, so overall I am happy with both of my purchases. If you want to buy a set of 2 or 3 or 4 or what have you, do it all at once if you want the colors to match. The manufacturer may update the design on you, but so far only in good ways.

It works out of the gate just fine and seems like a good deal for a cheap 165hz 1080p monitor. The monitor seems to have a lifespan of roughly 1 to 2 years before pixels completely start dying though. A thin horizontal line appears at the bottom of the monitor and slowly starts spreading upwards until the whole screen dies. I saw the 1 star reviews before i purchased it thinking, oh that person just got unlucky, that won't happen to me as it must be a very rare error. All the reviews said the same thing, the thin line of dead pixels that spread upwards and lo and behold, mine died in the exact same way. The real kicker is I bought 3 of these monitors for a triple monitor display. Not one of them died this way, but TWO of them have this problem. One monitor is completely dead while the 2nd that is dying just now started to get the thin line of pixels. Stay away from this monitor, it is absolutely awful unless you want to have a temporary disposable monitor.
