From time to time I see gaming hardware on youtube and other places. I've always wondered, what's the point of marketing for something that no one can remember? Wouldn't simple names that you can remember be better? Instead of these letters and numbers salad?

How about:

Acer Nitro XV271UM3 or rather Acer ED320QRP? ​

Asus rog swift oled pg27aqdm

Samsung Odyssey Oled Gaming Monitor G93DC



Yeah, it's Saturday evening here and I'm bored.

Do you not understand just how many peripherals have been made over the years? You'd run out of "ordinary" names in no time and you'd be gaming on an Acer Super Turbo Mega Panther Excess Swift.

Acer has hilarious monitor names I'll give you that.

I have to look it up every time. I only remember XV27U.

You really asking for money from others so you can buy more mouse traps? Sounds like that fetish addiction is getting really out of hand.

only the Acer Nitro, ROG Swift etc is important, the rest is just model numbers and dont matter for the brand

Product names are meant to be confusing. People look at the selection. See that the most expensive one seems unnecessarily expensive, don't want to cheap out and buy the lowest price option, so go for the one in the middle.

I know my fingers get tired typing in "iPhone 15 Pro Max".
Apple must know what they're doing but I don't like how they name.

Do you remember the phantom?

Do you remember the phantom?

That one?

 

[ZoukGalaxy]

These letters and numbers are actually very useful and give informations unlike a commercial random and stupid extremely long name, I'm so glad they are doing it like this.

 

[ManaByte]

I thought this was going to be about the Wii U.

I don’t even know the model of my own monitor
