This has HDMI Cable Included
It supports both DP and HDMI
A lot of makers send you just a box with no cables. Acer cables marginal but it's better than no cable.
The class leader in price/performance seems to be Dell right now you get high quality, I would say professional quality, (1) HDMI cable, (1) Display Port cable, (1) USB-C cable, and a very sturdy and heavy monitor stand. Visual quality is excellent on the 2K Dells I have one that is just a 75 Hz but image is fantastic. Bought the 240 Hz HD 25" gaming monitor last week and could not be happier it is both nVidia g-Sync and AMD FreeSync Premium rated. And the picture quality is fantistic.
Go to a Costco and see this Acer in person before you buy is my only advice. I won't buy an Acer sight unseens unless it's a $79 Black Friday special meant for your 3rd PC.

I'm in the market for a couple of 27s. Anyone have this or any reviews for this model?
I've been waiting for a good deal on 27" with better ports.
This has DisplayPort and is 27" and cheap.
Not sure if I'll like the curved screen…but I may buy a few of these.

I had 2 Acers now I have 1. They are cheap monitors. I had a 22 that never worked in Linux. Now think about that. The monitor, the firmware, would not operate in any version of Linux. Windows only. Acer never fixed the problem. It slipped off a chair and fell 14" to onto one corner and destroyed the monitor. OK my bad I was moving some cables and should have set it on the floor. Super cheaply made a Dell would have laughed at a fall like that.
Bummer that these are curved. Looking for a couple of 27" QHD monitors for work from home.
I, too, was worried about that. But I've surveyed some friends and coworkers, and the consensus seems that they love curved monitors for work/productivity stuff - as long as they are kept horizontal.
I purchased two of these for the full price. Solid value at this sale price, however I returned mine because the settings control buttons made me want to tear my hair out. I will never understand why Acer would ever decide to NOT use the "control stick" found on older models. Also, the "DisplayHDR™ 400" certification is useless as these low/mid-tier models only ever feature global-dimming.

And are the specs on Costco's page correct? I can't find this monitor's name. Is it a Costco only version of this [amazon.com]?

I have the 1080p 144Hz version and this doesn't have very much curve. its only 2 degrees off flat (viewing angle is 178 degrees)
