The filter covering the screen stretches just a millimeter or 2 from the edges, but it's an illusion as the actual bezel is closer to 5 or 6 millimeters. When the monitor is turned off, it tricks you into thinking its bezel is smaller than it actually is. The XG270HU is an attractive, light monitor with metallic copper accents on the stand and at the bottom of the monitor itself, making it resemble its smaller sibling the GN246HL. The XG model I'm looking at its its midrange 1440p model with FreeSync and 144Hz refresh rate, and there's also a similar model with the XB designation that has G-Sync as well if you're on the green team. Compared to the Predator line you get fewer features for a lot less money, as the XG270HU is just around $440 on Amazon and £415 on Amazon UKcompared to a similarly equipped Predator model at $778. The XG/B series is the company's midrange monitor line with more emphasis on gaming than its entry-level models, but also a step below the company's high-quality, high-priced Predator series. Acer's XG270HU FreeSync Gaming Monitor is a great option for PC gamers looking to upgrade to 1440p without spending big money on lots of bells and whistles.
