Customer Reviews

Is this monitor THAT GOOD???.........
Simple answer is YES indeed it is. I received this monitor hoping that it was as good as i hoped it would be. As soon as it came out of the box (not even connected!!) i was blown away. I had a HP 19" and a Samsung 19", and they are really good top end monitors........BUT Acer have worked wonders with this monitor. The WHOLE monitor (including the screen surface, but not the base) is finished in jet black gloss. When off, it looks like a TV!! When on, the image is sharp and the contrast and colours are awesome when compared against standard 1000:1 monitors! I would go as far to say that the glossy screen improves the image further still!! Have you ever compared a Matt photo to a glossy one? Well if not and you have the chance, do so, and you will see what i'm getting at. There are very few monitors that have the glossy finish all over, and I do not understand why not? In Adobe Lightroom, when you dim the background so that you can only see the photo, the black borders are sooo black that it looks as if that portion of the monitor is switched off! In fact, that goes for all blacks. Whether in a movie or on websites blacks are as black as the bezel.....JET BLACK

In movie mode, the refresh rate copes fine, and the contrast ratio really shines. It looks really punchy and colours are extremely well reproduced.

Haven't tried games yet, but I have no doubt it performs as good as a Samsung!

Unless you are a die hard DVI freak, don't worry about the lack of the connection, VGA is fine!

The stand is liken to an LCD TV stand, very low! But it can me mounted using VESA standard mounts!
Get one.

Be warned, NO DVI
I bought this monitor as it was the cheapest at Amazon but be warned, even though all other places seem to have this listed with a DVI input (including the Acer website!) this version does NOT have DVI! I returned mine and bought it elsewhere with the DVI input (£20 more though). I'm sure it's still a great monitor if you don't need DVI though.

Fantastic monitor - great value
Been using this monitor for a little while now. I had to buy a graphics card as the card on the motherboard on my PC doesn't support 1680X1050 resolution (watch out!). The monitor is superb, deep blacks, vibrant colours, quick settings button for watching movies, viewing text etc.. It even looks great switched off. No DVI may be an issue for some but for the rest of us this monitor is fantastic.
