Hello,
I have purchased the "Acer Predator XB271HU Abmiprz" about a month ago, and i am happy with the monitor, however when i'm watching shows on netflix, the colors sometimes get distorted.
I want to ask the community for a solution before i head over to Acer's support.
Thanks!

Left image: i don't know if it'll show up on your displays, but it's a screenshot of what i "see".
Right image: taken from my phone. the light is reflecting off the screen, so it looks weird, but you guys can see the issue i am trying to resolve.

    The problem is in the monitor. I have the same. Return it to the store while you can. If you want to avoid this problem, then I recommend not to buy monitors with TN matrix, gsync and 144-165hz.
