Summary

Not a bad display for its price but also not good. Acer KA242YEbi can be used as a cheap gaming monitor but there are better options on the market for the same usecases and with similar prices.

Pros

  • Joystick
  • Low minimum brightness
  • 100Hz IPS panel
  • Some gaming features

Cons

  • Low max brightness
  • Poor ergonomy
  • Glossy stand
  • Average in everything
