Anybody tried the checkers gaming monitor ?

Do you recommend a specific camera app for Android?

Not sure I can figure this out. My phone doesn't have a manual mode so need a 3rd party app

It will work with the stock camera app as long as you're able to capture multiple blocks in the photo.
 
Interesting , I wonder if these are rebranded pixio's or vaiotek's like the mecer k3g3r :unsure: . I will pop into checkers hyper tomorrow to check it out.

I guess opening it up and comparing internals would be the way to go about it, but unfortunately im not so rich that I can just take it apart out of interest :cry:
 
I'll try FC5 with HDR during the course of tomorrow. If I can screen capture the differences, will post the results

I may just do this, I'm going to try and pick up the 27inch tommorow
 

Well that was unexpected 😅. I presume it uses a lower grade panel, so I wonder about its longevity. Still, it's tempting for use in my sim rig.

Does it have a VESA mount? Would you mind sharing some photos of the monitor itself, particularly its base.

Thanks for running the test!

There are mounting holes, not sure if VESA though lol.

 
Ok, so went to Checkers this morning and picked up the desk as they didn't have a display unit. Assembly is very easy, only 12 screws needed. The desk is surprisingly heavy, quality is much better than I expected considering the price and it feels really sturdy.

I compared it to a R900 desk in Checkers and this desk was far better in quality and finish. I feel it was well worth the money spent and will actually be going back to buy a second desk for the youngest's room tomorrow.

If, however table dancing is your thing, look elsewhere... :)



That desk looks pretty neat for R600
Going to have a look at it today, for my eldest to do homework. Will reply about quality and how sturdy it is.

If anyone can maybe try and check out the monitor arms to see if they are flimsy or girthy I would really appreciate it.
 
I saw the 27' at Game Pavillion they have about 12 on the shelf i think

Thanks bud, might go pick up one tomorrow
 
So far its pretty impressive.

Done a few test calibrations and a few games of Apex. It runs at 144hz as mentioned.

I dont have a DP cable to test gsync yet but it should work.

Need to test HDR a bit more.

Build quality is decent, screen uniformity is good.

It is very good for the price.
