Great adjustability, Very crisp 4K display, G-Sync built-in, Very decent brightness
Only one DisplayPort 1.2 port, No HDMI at all, Slightly off color accuracy, 8-bit color range, A bit too expensive
The XB280HK bprz still might be interesting to 4K gamers thanks to its G-Sync technology. However, there are now better monitors on the market with better color accuracy, better connectivity and more affordable pricing.Check the Price of the Acer XB280HK...
Abstract: Most of the hardware you are using to build your new gaming desktop PC is somehow “pre-chosen” or you are at least well aware of what you want in your setup. When it comes to CPUs, the only options are AMD or Intel and the same goes for the GPUs – NVIDIA...

While as a display on its own the Acer XB280HK doesn't offer the best performance, it's still acceptable in all the important areas. As you can guess, however, the only real reason to buy this display is if you want G-SYNC, and more importantly you want i...

Chris Burns After previewing the G-Sync technology all the way back in December of 2013, we've been chomping at the bit to get the chance to check out a real-deal consumer-ready G-Sync monitor. Today we get to bring that to you with the Acer XB280...
High Resolution, Fast Response Time, Good Looking, USB 3.0 Hub, Highly Adjustable Stand, Affordable 4K
Only a 60Hz Refresh Rate, Good, but not great viewing angles, Needs Lots Of GPU Horsepower For Gaming
We really like the Acer XB280HK, for a few reasons. First and foremost, we're big fans of high-resolution displays. There are still some quirks with Windows and many applications that don't always scale properly on high-DPI displays, but the situation is ...

The Acer XB280HK finally fulfills the promise of the 4K G-Sync monitor we have been day dreaming about since the technology's launch back in October of 2013. Now that we have it, as well as another retail G-Sync option in the office, what kind of conclusi...
Good picture quality, although not for colouraccurate work, Only display to offer 4K and GSync, Excellent stand, with tilt, swivel and pivot
Small screen size for a 4K monitor, GSync only to 60Hz, Questionable materials for a premium display
The Acer XB280HK Predator is undoubtedly a good monitor. The picture quality is good for gaming and it's currently the only display on the market to offer both 4K and G-Sync.However, it excels in neither area. For G-Sync, rival displays like the Asus PG27...
Mid-2015 there is a lot to choose if you want an UHD monitor, but we haven't come as far as to recommend one to everyone looking for a new screen. Prices are too high for this and there are too many point of critique on the monitors. This doesn't mean t...
Great responsiveness (6 ms), GSYNC functionality, Design of the stand
Poor contrast (800:1), Limited video connectivity, Narrow vertical viewing angles
The XB280HK doesn't really fit in with the rest of the monitors out there, but perhaps it's just a trail-blazer... In any case, it's a good UHD display with exceptional responsiveness and decent colours. In other words, it's got everything you need for UH...
