    5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding monitor for gamers
    Reviewed in the United States on October 23, 2024
    I recently upgraded to the Acer Nitro Gaming Monitor, and it has exceeded all my expectations. The display is absolutely stunning—the 144Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time make gameplay incredibly smooth and responsive, which is exactly what I need for fast-paced games like FPS and racing. The visuals are sharp, with vibrant colors and deep contrasts, thanks to its full HD resolution and excellent color accuracy.

    The monitor's FreeSync technology works flawlessly with my setup, eliminating screen tearing and lag for a seamless gaming experience. The design is sleek and modern, with adjustable height and tilt options that make it comfortable to use during long gaming sessions.

    One thing I really appreciate is how easy it is to set up. The menu navigation is straightforward, and you can customize the settings to match your gaming preferences.

    For the price, the Acer Nitro offers unbeatable performance. Whether you're a casual gamer or a competitive one, this monitor delivers excellent value for both gaming and general use. Highly recommend it for anyone looking to upgrade their setup!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Really good for the value.
    Reviewed in the United States on January 24, 2024
    I recently purchased this monitor, and I must say that I am thoroughly impressed with its performance. One of its standout features is the impressive 165Hz refresh rate, as advertised. This high refresh rate contributes significantly to the overall smoothness of the display, providing a delightful gaming and viewing experience.

    The build quality of the monitor is another aspect that caught my attention. It doesn't feel cheap or flimsy and instead, it exudes a sense of sturdiness and durability. The design is sleek and modern, adding an aesthetic appeal to my setup. The attention to detail in the construction is evident, making it a visually pleasing addition to any desk.

    One feature that truly enhances the visual experience is the HDR capability. I found the HDR performance to be excellent, both in games and while watching movies. The colors are vibrant, and the contrast is impressive, adding depth and realism to the content. This feature significantly enhances the overall viewing pleasure, making it a great choice for multimedia enthusiasts.

    In terms of gaming, the combination of the high refresh rate and HDR support makes this monitor a fantastic choice for gaming enthusiasts. Fast-paced games feel incredibly smooth, and the improved color reproduction adds to the immersive gaming experience. I appreciate the attention given to creating a monitor that not only meets but exceeds expectations when it comes to gaming performance.

    Considering the performance and features offered, the price of this monitor is quite reasonable. It strikes a good balance between affordability and high-end features, making it a cost-effective choice for users who want a top-notch display without breaking the bank. I would confidently recommend this monitor to anyone looking for a reliable and feature-rich display at an affordable price point.

    To sum up, the 165Hz refresh rate, robust build quality, impressive HDR performance, and reasonable pricing make this monitor a standout option in its category. It has certainly exceeded my expectations, and I am thoroughly satisfied with my purchase.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Solid 180Hz VA panel monitor
    Reviewed in the United States on December 17, 2024
    The Acer Nitro KG251Q P3biip is a solid 180Hz VA panel monitor that delivers smooth performance and vibrant colors, making it an excellent choice for gaming. The contrast and color output are top-notch, with deep blacks and bright, accurate colors. The monitor feels solid, weighing around 12 lbs with Amazon packaging.

    One downside is the power button, which requires pressing and holding for 5-8 seconds to turn the monitor on or off—a small inconvenience. The navigation button also feels flimsy, which could be improved for better usability. Additionally, the monitor lacks a Type-C port, offering only 2 HDMI and 1 DisplayPort. While this isn’t a dealbreaker, it’s something to consider depending on your connectivity needs.

    The built-in settings are excellent, with intuitive on-screen controls that allow easy adjustment for things like brightness and game modes.

    Overall, the Acer Nitro KG251Q P3biip offers great value with its impressive refresh rate and color performance. However, the power button, flimsy navigation, and limited ports keep it from a perfect score.

    I'm very pleased with the size and quality of these monitors. I'm getting my pc stuff together bit by bit so I haven't turned them on yet but assembly was easy for the stands. My husband already has one of these exact monitors and I loved it so I had to get 2 of my own! The price is great too.

    The image quality and refresh rate of the monitor is great! I use it for gaming and it has no problems. Before, I was using a really old Acer monitor, and I had to upgrade. It is a good size for me, and really great for the price.

    Monitor as a whole is solid. Got in on a black friday sale. Mounted using the mount holes on the back as a vertical setup. Does everything I need of it. Colors are good and have had no issues with response/input times.
