What Buyers Say
ZZA Z245C 24.5"
The ZZA 32" CGM monitor is generally praised for its sharp image quality, vibrant colors, and smooth high refresh rates (170Hz or higher), making it a great value for both work and gaming according to the majority of verified buyers. However, a single detailed negative review warns of serious build defects like screen separation from the frame and a hot power supply, which led to a return and replacement with a worse unit, advising against purchase. The UI and stand design also received minor criticism for being awkward, but most users find the performance and price compelling, with one buyer purchasing 60 units for a sim racing center.

- vibrant colors
- high refresh rate
- great value for price
