Acer has launched the new Predator XB273U X1 gaming monitor in China. The 27-inch display is now available on JD.com at a price of 1299 yuan (approximately $180). It targets gamers who want high refresh rates, fast response times, and solid color accuracy in a mid-range package.
Acer Predator XB273U X1 Specifications
The Predator XB273U X1 features a WQHD resolution of 2560×1440 pixels on a Fast IPS panel. The screen supports a native refresh rate of 200Hz via DisplayPort and up to 144Hz via HDMI. Acer has rated the monitor with a 1ms (GtG) response time. These specs are aimed at delivering smooth motion and minimal input lag for competitive gaming.
The panel covers 90% of the DCI-P3 color gamut and supports 8-bit color, pushing out up to 16.7 million colors with enough vibrancy to make content creation or media consumption feel lively. It also comes with VESA DisplayHDR 400 certification, which may not rival OLED or mini-LED displays, but it still offers a noticeable upgrade over standard SDR with boosted highlights and enhanced dynamic range.
The monitor supports AMD FreeSync Premium technology, which synchronizes the refresh rate with the GPU to reduce screen tearing and stuttering. It also includes Acer’s eye-care features such as flicker-free backlighting, a low-blue-light mode, and ComfyView anti-glare coating.
The Predator XB273U X1 includes two 2W built-in speakers that can handle basic audio needs. The I/O options include two HDMI 2.0 ports, one DisplayPort 1.4, and a 3.5mm audio out jack. The monitor supports VESA 100x100mm wall mounting and comes with a fully adjustable stand that supports height, tilt, swivel, and pivot adjustments.
The design follows Acer’s Predator aesthetics with sharp edges, a cable management slot, and a metal claw-style stand. Acer is offering a 3-year on-site warranty in China with this model.
In related news, Redmi recently launched the G24 gaming monitor with a 240Hz refresh rate, priced lower than most game controllers, and the G27 monitor with 200Hz support for under $100.
