Sceptre Launches a 27-inch LED 1080p Monitor for $200 Street

Not every new monitor is 4K

Sceptre today announced the availability of its E275W-1920, a 27-inch monitor with an LED backlight and 1920x1080 display resolution. It's not the elusive (so far, anyway) 4K monitor with IPS panel, 120Hz refresh rate, and affordable price tag that we're all waiting for, but then again, there are reasons why someone might want to stick with 1080p if buying a new display, like the lack of scaling issues.
Whether or not Sceptre's 1080p display fits the bill is up to you. It seems to lack any gee-whiz amenities, like G-Sync support or any other fancy tricks. However, it is a big panel at a relatively affordable price -- it streets for around $200.
As for rated specs, it has a 5ms gray-to-gray response time, 1,000:1 contrast ratio, 250 cd/m2 brightness, built-in 2W speakers, and a stand that can tilt 15 degrees backward and 5 degrees forward. Alternately, you can detach the base and mount it to your wall. Connectivity options consist of HDMI, DVI, and VGA. There's also a headphone jack.
The E275W-1920 is available now at several retailers and e-tailers.
