Acer Nitro XZ342CUP Review

Summary

Solid monitor but its slower pixel respons times mean the motion blur isn't perfect, at least there are no overshoots. Overall not bad but competition is better.

Pros

  • Good gaming features
  • High contrast ratio
  • Good stand
  • Great speakers

Cons

  • Slower pixel response times
  • Low max brightness
  • High minimum brightness
  • No joystick
