Question Acer Nitro XV272U F3 - Is it a fake product?

[chadedgar]

Came across this monitor on amazon, it is cheaper than all other 240hz monitors and claims to be 300hz at 2k resolution. I can't find this product on official site, is this a fake product?

The XV272U V3 is on Acer's website. 180hz @ 2K
https://www.acer.com/us-en/monitors/gaming/nitro-xv2/pdp/UM.HX2AA.301

Acer Nitros always have terrible names. They are good and cheap though.
I think it's fake because Acer doesn't list any XV2 above 170hz.

... not even the V3 which is 180hz. *sigh*

I can't find this product on official site, is this a fake product?

this model is considered a "budget" display so the price should be lower than similar more popular models.

whether or not they have the refresh rate wrong or are deliberately trying to con a buyer,
you may need to contact the seller and verify the specs with Acer.

There is this one which meets the specs,

https://store.acer.com/en-gb/acer-nitro-xv2-gaming-monitor-nitro-xv272ukf-black-um-hx2ee-f02

maybe they have a specific model for India with th same specs.

I tried contacting the buyer, he claimed it's 300 hz.

I've been wondering the same for the last couple of days.

They even have a listing on flipkart.

They even have a listing on flipkart.

Saw that, both them and Amazon.in

HAHAHA, i was researching for the same product. Do tell me if you order XD also review it for us

 

[Punisher1412]

I'll update the thread on Wednesday. That's the expected delivery date from Flipkart.

Opted for openbox delivery so I can check and confirm the box and then take delivery.

 

[Punisher1412]

Recd delivery! The monitor is legit and the seller is legit too.

They listed it on acer site also now.

All perfectly working. 300hz shows up and works flawlessly.

@Punisher1412 Ordered mine off flipkart too

Very rarely do I see a monitor of these specs for this price. Listed as out of stock on Flipkart and Amazon has one left albeit being cheaper than Flipkart.

The USA listing for the monitor is around 417 USD, which is < 32k INR.

So, no idea what just happened with this set but the monitor looks good, doesn't feel all the premium but is almost in the same range as my Gigabyte M27Q. The viewing angles are decent enough considering that it is an IPS panel. Colours, I think need to be calibrated. I do not like the out of the box exp.

I was looking to get this one too . I have few questions can you pls test it for me.
does 300hz supports natively without any overlock(or it's just a mode)?
Can you do a ufo frame skipping test and share the result (just Google search the test)
Aslo can you see any ghosting effects on normal ufo test or inverse ghosting.
How does it run fps games like valorant or c.s how is the ghosting effects inside the game ?

Does hdmi 2.1 here actually have support anything more then 144hz ? (Since most are fake2.1 ). Or you are forced to use d.p cable to get the full 300hz.
It there any future firmware updrage option in the settings menu?

I know its a lot of questions but you are the only source right now. There is literally no reviews available for it yet .
Thankyou in advance.

I found one review when I searched `XV272UKF` on youtube, not sure if it is same monitor with new model name. In the review you can see a lot of ghosting in UFO test. So I didn't buy it. You can try comparing it with monitors in similar range to decide if extra refresh rate is even worth it. On amazon you only get replacement by brand and I didn't want to go through that hassle in case product is not good.

Hey,

This monitor does have HDMI 2.1 but I do not use HDMI. Can't be of much help. I run all my monitors (3) on DP.

300 hz is working even with overdrive at normal or off. Works natively from what I have tested till now. Just set windows to 300 hz in the monitor setting and it calibrated immediately.

UFO test,
I do not see much ghosting at 300 fps , it shows up a bit. This depends on your personal taste in the end. I don't really know how to send you the results for this. In the end, I can see that this has a bit more ghosting than the M27Q that I own and the difference for me is ok to live with.

Biggest issue for me would be no USB C display option to easily connect laptops etc.

frame skipping test.

170 hz is the m27q, 300 hz is the f3

Thanks for the help. As long as ghosting is not noticeable while gaming it's good enough for me .

What about the picture quality? Does it have good colour reproduction and all, can it be used for watching movies and do some editing too? Are we getting a great picture quality owing that it cost 27k in INR

Hi,
Can you please confirm, does this support 10-bit or 8-bit+FRC or 8-bit colors? There is no info on this anywhere, not even on the official website (Acer Nitro XV272U F3).
In windows, It'll be in Settings -> System -> Display -> Advanced display -> Bit depth. I'm not sure about macos.
Example:

 

[playbotgg]

I think this is the only competitor for MSI Oculux NXG253R Which is the only 240hz+ monitor under 40k, that monitor is 360hz at 1080 and this is 1440p at 300hz, if the panel performance is good then this is clearly a better option at 10k less. How good is the gaming performance on this monitor you tested any esport titles with 300+ fps ?

Could you please do a OSRTT Monitor Test for response times and share the result here, it would be great help.
