Acer Predator Z57
MSRP
$2,000.00
“The Acer Predator Z57 is big, bold, and unwieldy, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.”
Pros
- Searing brightness
- Fantastic color coverage and accuracy
- Unmatched 32:9 gaming experience
- Dual 4K resolution is great for productivity
- USB-C input with 90W of power delivery
Cons
- Picture-by-picture locked to 60Hz
- Very expensive
- Physically too large for many desks
The Acer Predator Z57 is pure insanity. At 57 inches with a 32:9 aspect ratio and over 1,000 nits of peak brightness, it outshines even the best gaming monitors. However, it’s important to consider more than just size and specs when evaluating a monitor.
Impressed by the Predator Z57’s initial appearance, living with it revealed some issues. While it delivers an impressive 32:9 gaming experience with excellent image quality, practicality for day-to-day use is a concern, especially given its $2,000 price tag.
