When I opened the box, I was shocked to find out my monitor was letting the world know that he is a boy. He just has the monitor stand…. hanging there. If you plan to use it on the stand, then it is touch and go; but if you want to use a VESA mount, there are a few hurdles.I kept spinning my monitor around trying to find a way to remove his male pride, until I saw the tiniest tiny arrow right on top of the stand. It was a pain to open, you need something small and sturdy enough to shove in there (I used a hair clip, a tiny flathead might work). After that, you just need to remove the 3 screws inside and it detaches.Which leads me to the next problems…. it didn’t come with any extra screws, or any screw for the VESA mount at all. It is 2024, give me my d*mn screws. I reused 2 of the screws that were in the stand, and 2 that I had around. That was such an unnecessary pain to deal with though.I am complaining a lot, but I still gave the monitor 5 stars because, well, it does what it is meant to do and you get what you pay for. If it was a more expensive monitor, would it have come with clearer instructions and enough screws? Sure, but I paid less than $80 on that bad boy so it felt worth.The colors look kinda nasty right out of the box and you definitely need to calibrate the monitor. The main thing is that the color settings are set to Warm which just makes everything look awful, just adujust the settings to your liking and it works great.

Great office screen and works good for the kid to watch YouTube on.

I have a home office setup with an ACER ultra-wide second monitor on a floating arm. It’s a nice monitor, but for some reason it’s a buggar to get my work laptop (a Dell CAD workstation) to find the correct resolution with. I had to fiddle with the settings (as it’s a 75Hz monitor) and finally my system recognized the correct settings… and even with that, sometimes my system sees the monitor as just a 1920×1080 generic PnP monitor or sporadically flashes in and out (as if it’s struggling to find the correct settings/source (as it’s autosensing). Ugh. It drives me nuts. With that, I also use it has an extended monitor for my home setup (where my wife and I share the monitor, swapping between a couple older MS Surface products (SurfacePro5 and SurfaceBook2)); when those are hooked up to the ACER ultra-widescreen monitor, it’s the worst looking stretched-out blurry 1920×1080 interpretation, and by no means 75Hz). It was nasty.Now bring in this AOC 27″ monitor. It’s a big monitor, but it has basic settings: 1920×1080 at ~60Hz. It’s much thinner than the bulkier ACER, and this AOC monitor is nicely ‘frameless’. It fits on the computer arm in our little home office so much better/more-flush. Also, it is instantly recognized by all our computers and Windows effortlessly matches up the correct settings. It’s a clean, bright, and crisp image monitor. It’s SOOO much nicer with our older laptops than that ACER ultra-wide.I had such high hopes for that ACER ultra-wide… but this taller rectangular 27′ AOC unit is actually much nicer to work with. The AOC viewing real estate is 13.5″x24″… where the ACER ultra-wide is 11.5″x27″. The taller/narrower AOC screen is just nicer when reading webpages, building a presentation slide, or doing CAD. That’s probably just a preference (based on my usage), but it’s noticeable. I imagine the ultra-wide is perhaps better for gaming, but it didn’t really work well for other uses.Oh, and for under $100, this AOC 27″ unit is a smokin’ deal! Great size, quality, and performance for the price!

Nice bright, vivid picture. Actually I’m shocked that you can get such a nice monitor at this price. I’ve never used a really high-end monitor, so I can’t compare to that. But it’s been awhile since I purchased a monitor and this one is much better than others I’ve had in the past that cost more. I don’t use it for gaming etc., just standard average viewing.

The monitor came well packed. Easy setup. Very good visual experience. Slim borders, Light weight. The screen view seems warmer than others I own. I use this an extension on my laptop running windows 11.
