Review on Acer G246HL Abd 24" LED Monitor - 1920X1080, 60Hz, Tilt Adjustment by Lorenzo Araujo

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Best value in the price range of $130 or less

In all, I've bought about 50 of these devices for office work, and they're second to none in the $130 or less price range. Not to mention that there aren't many monitor options with a 3-year warranty that come with a VESA mount (100mm). When using a DisplayPort-DVI cable, clarity, brightness and color reproduction are very good, more than adequate for an office environment. Wednesday. For most users, I usually set them side by side for a dual monitor desktop; perfect for comparing documents such as large Excel spreadsheets or simply for everyday multitasking. The 1920 x 1080 resolution is perfect for a 24 inch monitor. It's a good balance of convenient icon and text sizes while still maximizing your real estate. The bezel is quite thin, about 11/16 inches including the plastic bezel and the thin black bezel around the LCD panel itself. It uses an external power supply, which I think is a good idea as it simplifies cable management, and since that Since the power supply is not integrated into the monitor, weight and thickness are also kept to a minimum. A star was deducted. due to the narrow vertical viewing angle. I haven't calculated this, but I assume that at about 45 degrees from vertical (on the right as you look) a "shadow" appears and the legibility of the text is severely affected.

Pros
  • DVI-D input with High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) lets you view copy-protected digital movies and media files.
Cons
  • Limited ability to reduce glare and eye strain
