For those unsure, this is essentially a pair of 27" WQHD (1440p, 16:9) monitors stuck together. If your priority is something like pixels/$ and basic productivity, then this is a bad value. But if your priority is gaming or other media consumption, then this might be a good purchase.

Community Reviews

This 49 inch Acer Nitro is a super ultrawide built for gaming and media, with enough width to run three windows side by side and still keep them usable. The 5120 by 1440 layout feels like two 27 inch WQHD displays joined together, so it offers lots of horizontal space but only 27 inch 16 by 9 worth of vertical height. The VA panel draws criticism at this price, especially versus IPS or mini LED alternatives, and the extra width does not add much for every game. A solid fit if the ultrawide format is the main appeal.

Common Questions (5)

  • Many 49" super-ultrawides support dual-screen modes such as dual 16:9 or 21:9 plus 11:9, and some models also support picture-by-picture. For this Acer, multi-input support is not confirmed in the comments, so it may not split into three separate inputs.

  • The VA panel is a major drawback at this price, especially if you are sensitive to ghosting. Alternatives such as the MPG 491 CQPX, IPS models, or mini-LED options are cited as better value for a similar size, resolution, and refresh rate.

  • It behaves like two 27" 1440p monitors side by side, so it can fit three usable windows/apps across the screen. The downside is that its pixels-per-dollar is poor for basic productivity compared with smaller or higher-value alternatives.

  • The extra width is mainly useful for immersion and wider field of view, not extra height; the vertical space is still about the same as a 27" 16:9 display. It is most compelling for games that benefit from a very wide aspect ratio rather than for every title.

  • Super-ultrawides can work on Macs, and a resolution-unlock trick plus a free app can expose more display modes in MacOS. That makes getting the monitor running on a Mac feasible without major issues.

I got the MSI OLED at Sam's Club which notably has a lower refresh rate (bad) but also a lower pixel response time (good), but generally I love the 49" UW, I can have 3 windows/apps side by side by side and all of them are very useable

Edit: I should also mention on sale it is the same price as this

Another edit: When I see tear free gaming, I think tear as in crying instead of tear as in ripping

anyone able to get these superultrawides to work with a mac with intel chip?
Yeah. There's a trick to revealing more resolution options in MacOS. There's also a free app the opens up resolution options. Had no issues getting the super ultra wides working on my Macs.

I'm a reasonably avid gamer and have never been playing a game where I was like, "Man, I sure wish this was wider, but not taller" More real estate is always welcome, but at the end of the day, the vertical will only be the same as 27" 16:9. So, for people who enjoy this aspect ratio, what kinds of games are you playing that benefit from it?

I think they mean when it is on sale it is the same price. They had it on sale in December, I missed the boat by one day because the online stock checker was lying to me and I decided to go into Sams, only to learn the promo had just ended! So now I wait.
