Outdated Product
Budget-class gaming monitor equipped with a Rapid IPS panel, measuring 24.5 inches diagonally. The model's screen displays images at a maximum resolution of 1920x1080 pixels, features a refresh rate of 180 Hz, and a response time from 1 ms (using GtG methodology, i.e., switching from gray pixel to gray). The vertical and horizontal viewing angles of the display reach 178°. The maximum brightness of the panel's backlight is 250 cd/m². The screen also demonstrates quite good color reproduction — it claims coverage of 127% of the sRGB triangle and 91% of the Adobe RGB gamut. To reduce eye strain, the monitor includes a Less Blue Light filter certified by TÜV Rheinland. Gamers have access to tools such as displaying a crosshair in the center of the screen, a timer output, and an...fps counter, as well as the Night Vision function for brightening overly dark scenes. In terms of built-in interfaces, the MSI MAG 256F is equipped with one DisplayPort v 1.2 and a pair of HDMI v 2.0. Additionally, a 3.5 mm mini-Jack for wired headphones is provided.

Got it a month ago to replace my old monitor. Its ventilation is fine, doesn't heat up. Compared to my old monitor from 2019, there's a huge improvement, the screens have become brighter, and the refresh rate has increased. For the same money, you can get a really cool option. Overall, a good upgrade if you need a budget monitor.
- Beautiful, in my opinion, bright colors;
- 180 Hz;
- A smaller stand compared to the old monitor;
- Cable organizer on the stand;
- Doesn't overheat;
- The LED (Indicator) is positioned at the bottom of the case and it shines brighter than necessary;
- In most cases, the cable mount is not needed, because while you can route the power cable through it and it will be hidden, you can't conceal the HDMI cable there, since it would require excessive bending (at least with a standard cable);
- The power cable doesn't look reliable, the insulation is very thin.

a good monitor for a beginner user (price-quality), but I plan to change it in the future due to the not very convenient brightness adjustment.
