Our take on the Acer B277U 27' WQHD 2560 X 1440 2K 75Hz 4ms (GTG) 2xHDMI DisplayPort AMD FreeSync USB 3.0 Hub Built-in Speakers Backlit LED IPS Monitor

The Acer B277U is a 27-inch 2560x1440 IPS monitor aimed at office and general desktop use. It stands out for its ergonomic stand with 120mm height adjustment, ±45° swivel, pivot and tilt, plus a built-in USB 3.0 hub, dual 2W speakers and three-sided frameless bezel. Its 75Hz refresh with AMD FreeSync is modest next to 144Hz+ gaming monitors, but the IPS panel's 178/178 viewing angles, 350 cd/m² brightness and full adjustability beat fixed-stand budget 1440p screens. Reviewers of this class of Acer B-series monitor tend to praise the sharp text and flexible positioning while noting the 4ms response and 75Hz cap limit fast gaming.
