Product Overview

Acer Predator X25 is a premium 25-inch FHD gaming monitor in Acer's 2021 lineup. It is powered by a basic 8-bit IPS panel that reaches an industry-leading 360 Hz maximum refresh rate.
Notably, this monitor supports HDR up to DisplayHDR 400. The included stand comes with tilt, swivel, pivot, and height adjustments that make for a more ergonomic viewing experience. With a fast 0.3 ms response time, this display is a good gaming option. Additionally, this monitor can get quite contrasty. It also comes with build-in speakers that make media consumption in a pinch an effortless experience.
Further, the 8-bit panel is rather limiting in terms of color reproduction.

The Acer Predator X25 is great for mixed usage. It's bright enough for most environments and has good reflection handling to overcome glare. It excels in gaming features, with an exceptionally high refresh rate, fast response times, and low input lag. However, the 25 inch screen and 1080p resolution may not be large or sharp enough for some.

Pros
  • Excellent SDR color gamut
  • Wide viewing angles
  • Good ergonomics
  • High refresh rate and fast response time for exceptionally clear motion
  • Low input lag and G-SYNC VRR support
  • Very bright
Cons
  • Low pixel density
  • Doesn't get quite bright enough to make highlights pop
  • No FreeSync support

Reviewers from tomshardware have found the following***:
The X25 starts out in its Standard mode, but if you change any image parameter, it switches to User. To see brightness values over 225 nits, you must turn Max Brightness on. The Predator X25 is singularly focused on high-performance gaming but is also perfectly capable as a workday or entertainment display.

Pros
  • High-quality IPS panel
  • Accurate color accuracy
  • Good gaming performance
Cons
  • No G-Sync
  • No variable backlight
