The monitor includes an S Switch, shielding hood, and multiple video inputs (3 HDMI 2.0, 1 DisplayPort 1.2). It has a 16:10 aspect ratio and a contrast ratio of 1000:1. Priced at $278.00.
Our take
As a competitive gamer, the XL2540X+ impressed me with its buttery-smooth 280Hz refresh rate and lightning-fast 1ms response. The TN panel means colors aren't as vibrant as IPS, but the motion clarity is outstanding. The included S Switch and shielding hood are thoughtful touches. The 16:10 aspect ratio gives a bit more vertical space, but it's not standard. At 24.1 inches it's compact. I'd love a higher resolution, but for pure esports performance, this is a solid choice. The price is reasonable for what you get.
