Acer SB230 Bbix Ultra Thin Technology 1920X1080P, 75Hz, Wide Screen, HD Review

When my Acer SB230 arrived, I had a hard time believing there was actually a monitor in the box. I was so used to the big, heavy, clunky monitors of the past that they felt too light. It was well packaged and protected by a foam insert inserted into a thick, form-fitting box. Everything that should have been in the box was there. The only thing I would have liked would have been an HDMI cable. They included a VGA cable, but I didn't want to spend money on a monitor and then get the best…

(Disclaimer: I bought this monitor specifically for console gaming, but don't let that put you off other uses! My review only focuses on my personal use and those who may have similar needs). If you (like me) love gaming and don't want the usual high cost combined with high quality, then this monitor may be your solution. I deliberately gave up my 55-inch HD LED TV and put some gaming expenses on the back burner. I didn't want to completely sacrifice my hobby just because it might hurt my…

To be honest, I've always been a little tired of Acer's products because I felt like they made "lower quality" products. I bought 2 of these monitors to replace my old monitor and I am very pleasantly surprised with these new monitors. You've definitely changed my mind about Acer. These monitors were amazingly priced and judging by the specs they were too good to pass up so I bought 2 of them. When I received the monitors I was blown away by how good they look and how thin they are. I don't…

I bought 2 of them and if I only use one it's perfect, everything works fine. Windows recognizes 75hz right away, my only concern is that if I use both monitors and turn on freesync it will start flickering with every game I play. I even used CRU to change the freesync range like AMD forums said but to no avail. If anyone knows how to solve this I would greatly appreciate it.

Very happy with this purchase. I love it so far. Seats were booked less than two days ago, and when I left for work today, I was already sitting on the porch. Unpacking and installing took about 5 minutes, maybe less. Connected, started and I'm in business. I have no complaints. The monitor is VERY light and significantly thinner than most other monitors on the market in this price range. If I had to be picky, I would say something about the HDMI cable. It would be cool if he was dating one…

The colors look great and the picture is very sharp. Games run great on it. I'm not a competitive gamer so I don't notice the 4ms refresh rate. All I know is that they look great on them. They're so cool I recently bought a second one to use as a desktop extension to VGA (using a DP adapter on an Nvidia card) and power a PlayStation over HDMI. My only concern is that the buttons for toggling inputs and navigation settings are a bit fiddly, but you'll quickly learn how to navigate if you use…

We bought this monitor for our daughter who has virtually started her accounting internship. Although she got a laptop, we thought another monitor would help her with her work. She used the words "game changer" when we asked her how she felt when she first started work. She said the monitor is great and she uses it more than a laptop with a very small monitor. With so many people working from home, it's important to have a monitor big enough to see without straining your eyes. In the photo, we…

I ordered this monitor as an extra monitor connected to a laptop for use during the COVID-19 pandemic so I can work from home. A VGA cable is included in the box, but if your computer only has an HDMI port like mine, make sure you have an HDMI cable or a VGA to HDMI adapter. This monitor is very thin and light. The overall video/screen quality is fantastic, although now I use it more for work that doesn't require as much effort as some games. All in all a product I would buy again. This review…

I love this powerful little monitor, was it worth the money? Am I 100% satisfied with my perches? 100% there is a huge improvement from my TV to this monitor. But it comes with a sacrifice, if you enjoy gaming with headphones all day and don't use speakers on your monitors then this is for you, if not you'll have to settle for no sound and only headphones! But don't let that put you off, I don't mind, I think it's better if you have headphones since you'll mainly be playing with them. But since

I bought this for my home office and it seems to do the trick. Up close you can see the pixels, but if you place it on the other side of the table you won't notice the difference to a more expensive monitor. The only drawback I see is that the height cannot be adjusted. Maybe I just don't know how to do it, but I've tried many ways and the screen just pops out of the stand instead of going up. Also, no HDMI cable is included!

I bought 3 of these on June 27, 2021. I replaced them with my old 11 year old Asus ML series monitor because the Acers weren't as good as the Asus. Asus was in the same price range as Acer's, but the panel is much better than Acer's. The Acer's skin tone is very yellowish, no skin tone at all, and I wasn't able to adjust the colors the way I'd like. The color saturation (saturation) of the Asus is way better than the Acers which looked really washed out and I HAD to increase the saturation. I…

The monitor is not bad for its price. But the colors are not super bright, which is normal. The description says 75Hz but the information on the monitor says 60Hz. It has a halo. But overall it's a decent monitor. Edit: OK, it runs at 75Hz, but you need to go into your computer settings. There should be instructions on how to do this for non-technical people. Not in your manual. Colors, balance, lighting must be adjusted on the monitor in the settings. You'll also need to adjust the settings on

Purchase January 11, 2021: Great entry-level monitor! Although I wish there was some sort of remote control to change the display settings; Pressing all those buttons to change the brightness is a little annoying. That being said, there are many ways to customize the display! Even a blue screen filter. Also, the monitor can tilt back and forth, which I wasn't sure about. You just have to apply some pressure to break the tilting mechanism.

The only problem I have with the screen is that the power button is too close to the others. So when you are in the menu, you accidentally turn off the screen. Otherwise, the screen is bright, clear and the response time is good. So far no problems other than the one mentioned. I've seen several questions about whether it's tiltable or whether it has speakers. It doesn't have speakers, but it appears to have an audio jack, although I haven't tested it, and it has a volume option in its menu, so

This monitor is one of the sharpest and cleanest displays I have ever used. I am very satisfied, especially considering the low price. The menus and controls were easy to understand without even looking at the included instruction manual. The only downside I have is that the monitor stand is quite short (the bottom of the display is only 4-5 inches above the level of the screen). table level) and has a fixed height. I would have preferred it to be bigger (or even adjustable) but I never thought

For $100 you really can't go wrong: 1ms response time, 75Hz, it works for 1080p 60fps, if you want something cheap that does the job, this is it. This will be my second monitor if I decide to go with a 120Hz or 144Hz monitor.

Good monitor for the price! I had issues with the VGA port, but I bought an HDMI cable and the monitor works and connects perfectly.

So, this monitor was bought for my son. While we were waiting for his desktop to be delivered, I plugged it in and played Fortnite on it. For that it works fine. I'm only taking off a star because mine is a bit uneven. It probably wouldn't bother most people, but I'm noticing it and can't seem to fully understand it. Needless to say, for the price I would probably buy again.

I bought my first monitor for my new gaming PC. Shortly thereafter, I wanted the second to have two monitors. The picture quality is absurd. I play the highest quality games and these monitors are perfect for that.

Well, at first I was skeptical that a $110 monitor is any good. But of course I was wrong, it doesn't have speakers and it might not be 4k but the clarity and picture quality is amazing. I wouldn't normally buy anything from Acer. I used to think it was bad quality. Just buy it. you will not regret it. no glare either.
