Pixio PX277 Prime 27 inch IPS 165Hz Refresh Rate WQHD 2560 x 1440 Resolution 1ms MPRT Response Time HDR Adaptive Sync Esports Premiere LCD Gaming Monitor

I had a 4k 32” monitor for gaming on my xbox series x, this was recommended by a friend and it’s a game changer. Buy a monitor that is compatible with your gaming console. I love it so far, easy set up and very clean.

Ive spent the last 7 years using a monitor that came free with my computer. I managed to upgrade to dual screen by buying a second monitor from a Goodwill. Most of that time Ive had a 1080 graphics card because my friend gave me his old one. So I literally had to use an HDMI to VGA converter to use my terrible monitors. Ive been saving up for a while now so when I saw a 165hz monitor for this price I had to jump on it. I couldnt believe what a difference it is. I feel like Ive been playing video games with my eyes squinted up till now.

This is my first proper monitor and all I can say is WOWW. Ive never experienced 1440p on a monitor, IPS nor past 90Hz so this is just amazing coming from a 24inch 60hz TN panel. The colors are great, dont bother with HDR its bad just like every single other monitor that claims to be HDR around these price range, response time is good. No dead or stuck pixels but there is some small amount of backlight for me though and I only notice it when I loaded up a black image. The bezels are very thin but there is a small black border around the display on the inside of the bezel. I cant say much for the stand since I mounted it on an arm immediately. 9.5/10 definitely reccomend.

I really do love this monitor. It has no picture errors and performs as advertised. It has plenty of in/outputs and many options. My ONLY complaint is when I switch inputs from my PC to PS4. If theyre both on when this happens its no problem. However, if I turn off the PC before I remember to switch the inputs and the monitor turns off with the computer, it is insanely difficult trying to turn it back on to switch to the PS4 input before it turns itself off. It is difficult to determine when the monitor is back on, and it turns off before allowing you to switch inputs. Incredibly frustrating. Without that problem I could have easily rated this as a 5 star monitor.

To start off, I never heard of this company. After seeing lots of positive reviews I decided to give them a try. The 3 year warranty along with the price tag was the cherry on top. The monitor had to check off my basics. 1440p, 27inch ips, decent contrast and over 144hz. This monitor exceeded my expectations. There’s no light bleed, slim bezels and the colors look amazing.

I have been using two of the monitors for gaming and working at home... All in all its best for work and some gaming. I had a few issues with performance, screen randomly going black. After reseating the display port cable it came back up, but its slightly annoying. But if you need solid screen for gaming and work, I would highly recommend it.

It says it has built-in audio system but it didnt work. The monitor came with no sound, windows picked up its speaker but it doesnt have any sound. Tried all software methods and played with all settings, but no success. Thankfully I have speakers so it doesnt bother me too much, but if you want this monitor to be your main speaker, then you need to watch out, maybe you will get one just like mine that has a broken audio system right out of box

Works well

Does everything you would expect with a really good price point and going from 60hz to 165hz is very noticeable. In mouse movement and aiming in FPS.

Upgraded my gaming system earlier this year and finally had a GPU (5700XT) that could drive a 1440p display. Unfortunately that was May and monitors became either unavailable or expensive. I couldnt find a single high refresh 1440p monitor for less than $400 and at that point I was only shooting for 75mhz. So I was pleasantly surprised when this new Pixio became available at $310 (BF sale) with up to 165mhz using Display Port. After watching the Hardware Unboxed review, I pulled the trigger and bought two with the other a gift for my son. Good: - Its just a great display. With the 5700XT Im able to get 60-90fps on high end games and its just beautiful. One extremely useful feature is an on screen fps display. This really helped when I was doing the initial setup because of the annoying habit of Windows to reset your display at 60mhz. Once I was sure Windows had given up I turned it off. - Both FreeSync and GSync compatible. FreeSync is native and easy to activate, but you do have to turn it on at the display and then turn it on inside the Radeon software. Again, the FPS counter was a huge help in confirming that adaptive sync was actually on. There is some misleading information that FreeSync only works with DP but that is not true. DP is only necessary for 165mhz since HDMI does not support over 144mhz. . Setting up GSync takes a little more work but it gets there. Oh and its also compatible with FreeSync Premium - AMDs newer not free at all version fo FreeSync. - Good selection of ports with two HDMI and one Display port. I have my main PC in HDMI 1, a RP4 in HDMI2 and an iMac connected to the Display Port (as a second display). I will likely be switching my PC to the Display Port because my setup has the second display for he iMac on the wrong side and try as I might I cant get used to it. - Decent adjustment controls with a joystick style button on the back right (as you face it) allowing you to use your right hand to use it (sorry lefties). The press right to select is slightly counter intuitive. Not so good: - Biggest negative is a pretty big one - zero adjustability. The stand is completely fixed - no tilt, no swivel, no height (EDIT: I was wrong, there is tilt). Worse it is very low with 5 (12.7CM) distance from the desk surface to the bottom edge of the actual display (not the bezel edge but the display part). For comparison my iMac sits on a small (less than 2) stand and the bottom of the display is just over 8 (20.3CM). Having said all that, the stand is very beefy and holds the monitor well with one exception (see below). - The stand is VERY wide - 16 wide and 10 deep. I was able to find a stand on Monoprice that will fit but it wasnt easy. In hindsight I should have bought an adjustable VESA compatible monitor stand. The monitor accepts VESA 100 mounts and Monoprice has an excellent one. Either way, its $25-30 to fix this stand issue (if it is an issue for you) meaning a competing monitor with a height adjustable stand that cost $20 more is a better value. - The stand has a one button quick release which is really great except it is in a spot that your hand naturally goes to to move the monitor. I nearly dropped the display when I was first getting it setup because I grabbed it by the quick release. Be careful! - I am having an annoying issue with the monitor not waking up from sleep at times. I have not been able to isolate it as a monitor issue or a GPU issue because I had some strange sleep related errors with my last monitor too but this is much worse. I have emailed Pixio tech support but no resolution so far. EDIT: Great response from Pixio. Likely a bad HDMI cable. I switched to Display Port and the problem disappeared. Overall this is a great monitor and an amazing value. If the stand were adjustable I would be ready to call it perfect. If you dont mind the display sitting low or have a ready made solution I have zero reservations about recommending this. If you are doing a dual arm setup your should absolutely consider this. You will be hard pressed to find a monitor at this price point with the features and quality of the P277. Even spending $30 for an adjustable stand its still a great value. No regrets from me.
