The Acer 57 inch Predator Z57 is a periphery gobbling curved Mini LED display

If you buy something from a Verge link, Vox Media may earn a commission. Acer announced a few gaming displays ahead of CES 2024 today, but the star of its new lineup is clearly its — a 57 inch, 120Hz curved display that spans 7680x2160 pixels. It uses MiniLED backlighting for better contrast than a typical LCD monitor, and Acer says it will be out in the second quarter for $2,499.99 in the US and €2,399 in Europe.

The Z57 will come equipped with AMD FreeSync Premium to reduce screen tearing and gets a 90W USB C PD port, dual HDMI 2.1 ports, and a single DisplayPort 1.3 port, as well as a built in KVM switch for using multiple devices with it. Acer says it has 2,304 dimming zones and HDR, with 1,000 nit peak brightness.

It’ll also show video from multiple sources at once, using picture in picture or a side by side split screen mode. The company says the screen will cover 98 percent of the DCI P3 color gamut, as well. And it’s VESA compliant if you want to take on mounting it to your wall. I believe in you; just make sure you use a stud finder.

Acer’s new display has dual 10W speakers and an adjustable stand you can tilt, swivel, and raise or lower. You’d be right to compare the Predator Z57 with the that Samsung last year. They’re very similar displays, albeit with some notable differences. For starters, at 240Hz, the G9’s refresh rate is twice that of the Z57, and it’s also got more dimming zones, at 2,392, than what Acer lists — 88 zones isn’t a massive difference, but worth pointing out, especially at this size.

Plus, the Odyssey Neo G9 has been hitting a sale price , making it $500 less, for now, than the Predator Z57’s announced pricetag. For a smaller option, Acer also announced that it’s updating its tiny by comparison curved monitor with a 240Hz panel (that’s up from 175Hz). And the company released a bigger version of the same display — the 39 inch Predator X39, which otherwise has the same specs, per Acer’s announcement.
