Can't find any reviews on this monitor ACER PREDATOR XB273UG S 27" WQHD IPS 165HZ
is it decent? compared to Asus Tuf VG27AQ/LG27GL850?

Hey guys wanna ask how's Acer's monitor, do they really break down after a year or two after use as other forumers here say?

I bought an Acer XV270p June last year, got a replacement unit due to power issue (after switching off PC the monitor will not go to sleep/ standby mode, display will flash whole night until the next morning unless you switch the power off)

And then the replacement unit I got also have the same issue so I decided to live with it  doh.gif  (So maybe my first unit is totally fine.. just design flaw or something)

Then another half a year passed, the entire bottom panel starts flickering.. I did some diagnostic and found either the DP port or the monitor is faulty because it's fine with HDMI..

I then carried the monitor to service center to diagnose and to fix, got the same response that they cannot fix and will replace new unit for me.. Reason because parts phased out lol. Maybe it is really a design flaw so they discontinued.
They offered me to:
1. Top up RM300 for xv271Z. 280hz nitro monitor.
2. Top up RM350 for xv272up. 2k 144hz nitro monitor

Or swap to: (no charges)
3. ED320QRP (32" VA 144hz curve)
4. VG271S (similar spec with XV270P but non height adjustable)

I went for the VG271S as I am actually happy with my previous unit and I use VESA mount so with or without the adjustable stand makes no difference.

Now I wonder if I should sell and look for other monitors.. Scared and tired of going to the service center and waiting for weeks  sweat.gif

Haha I actually experienced really good after-sales service with acer despite what I see many forumers here say.
I had a problem with my laptop and they fixed it for me right away (less than a week i think?)
So I guess tbh it depends on whether you really like the products of the brand or not, don't just switch because of that one factor. Cheers!
