Question 1

Does it have a speaker (headphone) output where I can hook up external speakers?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it does! I have my PS4 hooked up to one of mine and I use a normal 3.5 mm male-to-male cable to connect to the aux on my speakers and it works perfectly!

Question 2

Matte or Glossy?

Accepted Answer

Matte finish... much better on your eyes... low blu light and flicker free... they should make all monitors like this really.

Question 3

Is the power adapter internal or is there an external wall wart style transformer?

Accepted Answer

On the back of the monitor facing downward there is a 3 prong piece to plug the cord into seen in the 4th picture.  That cord plugs directly into the wall.  There is nothing else external besides that cord for power.

Question 4

How's the color on this monitor?

Accepted Answer

I'm impressed with the color for such a cheap monitor. Was using a refurbished IPS screen until it broke, then switched to this. I think the IPA (glossy finish) was a little better with darker colors, but I had no issue adjusting to this guy (matte finish, much quicker response rate). If you're looking for a nice cheap gaming monitor, I'd recommend it.

Question 5

Can i remove the mount for this monitor (i am planing on using this on a triple monitor arm)?

Accepted Answer

Yes, and there are mount holes for a mounting bracket on the back of the monitor. The mount holes are 3 15/16" apart, measured from the center of each hole, in a square. The base mount ships unattached in two pieces (arm and base), so you can just refrain from attaching for your use.

Question 6

Is the plastic bezel the kind that is very shiny and reflective of light? Or is it more of a matte? Is it textured at all?

Accepted Answer

I got this monitor for my first Gaming PC build to eventually upgrade. But tbh its amazing for everything I do and im using it til its death. The bezel is slightly reflective but I haven't noticed it at all. It is not textured either it is smooth plastic. The look of this thing really makes me happy, I went with a red and black aesthetic and the carbon fiber really makes the back look amazing. 
8/10 monitor for price

Question 7

can this be used for gaming?

Accepted Answer

I use this screen for gaming, but it does have some limitations.  It only has a 60Hz refresh rate, meaning that it can only display up to 60fps.  So no 3D display or super high frame rates.  Also the speakers are kind of awful, so I'd recommend getting your own speakers if you are hooking this up to a console.  It does have an audio out jack in the back.

Question 8

Can I plug in PS4 or cable cord into the monitor?

Accepted Answer

If the PS4 or cable box use HDMI, you will be able to hook them up, there is no coaxial input, not that the coaxial input is common these days.

Question 9

Does this unit have audio out?

Accepted Answer

It does have built in speakers, but you need earphones to listen to anything that is playing.  I bought external logitech speakers and connected them, and they work fine.  The term built-in speakers is kind of misleading 'cause it appears that you should be able to listen to anything that is playing on your computer, but that's not the case.  All in all the screen is great.  Hope this helps.

Question 10

Does the stand fully detach from the screen (for wall-mounting)?

Accepted Answer

Yes it does. When it arrives in the mail it isn't attached yet (but it can come off if need be in the future). Since it's not attached yet you could simply go straight to mounting it to a wall. Has for holes on the back for mounting. Great monitor by the way.
