Great picture, quality, and adjustability. Best of all it works with the PS5 to get 120hz while playing COD black ops cold war! Best monitor at this price point.
I would recommend this to a friend!

If you can grab this on sale, do it!!

I got this on sale (apparently they frown upon revealing prices which is weird) from the Heartland store on August 18th, 2021, so if you're reading this in the not too far future, I recommend waiting for a sale, then it's totally worth it.
Pros:
- 1080p @ 27" is a good size for desktop gaming so you can sit a little further away without missing anything, but I can see how text/regular desk work might not be the greatest. They have nice eye care options though. For gaming it's absolutely fine, you won't notice a difference between this and 1440p unless you're really trying hard. And at 144hz it'll be moving too fast for you to really pay attention to it anyway. - Low latency, no ghosting issues, and a smooth 144hz refresh rate with Freesync. While not certified for it, apparently it can do G Sync on some cards too. Works great with 120hz on PS5, which is what I use it for! - Great IPS color gamut out of the box. I had to fiddle with the settings and my preference changes with each genre I play but I wasn't disappointed with the colors at all. It won't get as contrast-y as an OLED or a VA but it's still really good. - Nice quality stand with tilt, swivel, and height adjustment, although there's no pivot to portrait mode. - Your mileage may vary but I turn AMA up to 3 on almost everything, looks the smoothest to me. - Actually does HDR decently, but could be better. It's not as accurate or as bright as my TCL 55R635 obviously, but it's great to see at this price point.
Cons:
- Original price is a bit high, so wait for a sale. - Speakers are meh. But who cares about those? You don't buy this for sound quality. Use headphones or even a cheap soundbar or speaker set. - No USB hub or C connection in the I/O. Not a big deal for me, but if you're a minimalist and like to keep your space free of cables, hubs, adapters etc. this may turn you off. - I guess 1080p is a "con" but most 1440p 144hz monitors are more expensive than this one anyway.

Best Price for 144hz pc and 120hz console 1080p

This monitor was purchased for $250 and is a bargain at this price. 144hz on pc at 1080p is great on this monitor. Response time is super fast and the monitor looks very slick. Console at 120hz also makes this amazing playing warzone or fortnite at 120fps. It’s amazing and I won’t be going back to 60hz monitor any time soon.

This monitor is really good, it has good colors and response time. I don't know if the hdmi in the box can support 144hz since it's only hdmi 1.4 but it does not disappoint me. Although don't buy this when not on sale because it goes around for $400 cad. I got this at $250 and $282 with tax. Overall really good and simple to put together.

Best starting monitor for console players. Great settings for single player and multiplayer games. Does everything above average which is amazing for its price. Takes few days for the eyes to adjust to the 144hz.

At pricetag deal of 250$, it was the best deal available for a dual hdmi 2.0 monitor with these specs. Best 1080p 144hz monitor for PC and for current gen console to play 120hz.
I would recommend this to a friend!
