> 24 hourSo I game on my ps4 along with pc and Netflix, other broadcasting and YouTube stuff. My goal was to get a 27 inch monitor and a 24 inch monitor. One for my PlayStation 4 and one for my PC. Well not only will this monitor allow me to hook up to both platforms, it can automatically sense which input is being used and switch over. The picture is very crisp and clean and you also have the option to select different picture qualities. And what I mean by that is you can choose gaming or energy saving mode, movie, standard or you can customize to your liking. This item came in roughly 2 to 3 days. It was packed very well and did not have any trouble putting the stand together. The stand does tilt a little bit down and back. The only negative thing I saw is there was no option for a mount. Overall this monitor was a great purchase for me. As good as the picture is I dont think I wouldve found anything better for the price that I paid. I do play Lotta first person shooters so the less lag the better and I noticed hardly none whatsoever. I bought this item around February 28 and Amazon let me know that if I wasnt satisfied I could return it up until March 29. So if you are worried take that into account as well. If you are on the fence about this monitor or another one I would recommend this monitor, especially if you were looking for one on a low budget. It does come with a VGA cable to hook up to your computer but it doesnt come with an HDMI cable for systems which is kind of a bummer but owell. I hope I have managed to help some of you out, if you have any questions please let me know. I would be glad to help any of you out.

> 24 hourI dont like the power setup because it has to have a power pack on the cord. I move the computer around a lot doing DJ gigs so always having to deal with that. Otherwise its a fine monitor.

> 24 hourThis is one of many Acer monitors I have purchased over the years. I never cease to be amazed at the brilliance and clarity that Acer delivers for the price. The monitor itself comes packaged very nicely in full wrap styrofoam with a screen protecting layer sheet wrapped around the monitor itself. When you take it out, it weighs practically nothing, and at first you thing Ehhh on the quality. But the nice thing is that the whole front of the monitor is all screen with a very very thin black frame. Dont let the light weight fool you, this monitor is no joke amazing. The base takes a bit of practice to put together. The bottom round portion is quite thick, metal, and sturdy with a heavy duty plastic arm that offsets the monitor. After it is put together its very customizable in angle and position. Its a little tricky to make sure the monitor really clicks in to the arm that supports it. If you have to take it back apart for any reason, just be aware there are little push points you have to depress to get the stand pieces back apart. That was the only time I thought of the arm as cheap because I thought it would break was in trying to take it back apart to pack away. But it proved to be very strong and I was impressed. When it is all done, its very minimalist looking and a nice addition to the office. I am very pleased and I would purchase over and over again.

> 24 hourJust received mine today to replace an older Acer display that is going on to other uses in my house. Installed the base no problem, hooked it up, no problem and off and running. First thing I noticed is that it is much brighter and crisper than the LCD screen it replaced. I am not an expert on color reproduction and all that. It seemed fine right out of the box. I did some minor tweaking in my NVIDIA control panel to tone down the brightness by about 3% but other than that, nothing. I play an online multiplayer game and I immediately noticed how much smoother this was and everything looked almost new. My old LCD was still a pretty good 5ms monitor, but this one transitions so much better. Other notes: -Using a DVI-D connection to my computer - I have a lot of cables lying around and for me the included VGA cable goes into the electronics recycle bin -This monitor uses a power brick but it is so small, its more like a power mouse -The base is great, my old monitor used to shake when the washing machine went into spin cycle. This one doesnt move a bit. -For the money, if you are looking for a good monitor without a ton of features, just want to plop it on your desk and be done with it, this is a great deal. -This monitor appears to be exclusive to Amazon. -Its a very nice design, very pleasing to the eye. -I have this side-by-side with a very high quality HP display and I think the two are comparable. With my old display, when I switched from one to the other, it looked like going from a shiny new car to an old rusted beater.

> 24 hourAt first the monitor was great. I loved the big screen, it seemed to be of good quality. I got it all hooked up on 1-3-16 and by 7-29-16 I had 2 red lines running through the monitor. I contacted Acer and they said Id have to ship it off to repair. Ugh, okay, not enthused about that, but at least its under warranty. Oh, by the way, YOU have to pay the shipping to get it reapired. Kay, so I believe in being peaceful, and behaving like any Christian should, with patience and understanding. Ive NEVER, NEVER been nasty to people in customer service even when I want to be. Well. . .I lost it with Acer and I turned into the wicked witch of the west over their you-have-to-pay-your-own-shipping-policy. Excuse me, if something goes wrong while its under warranty its YOUR responsibility to fix it. YOU ARE going to give me a shipping label. I shouldnt have to pay for a manufacturers problem. I won. They agreed to give me a shipping label, but when I went to print the shipping label off about 30 hours later, (I was busy the previous day, didnt have time to check my e-mail) the shipping label and tracking number was canceled. They canceled the label! So, moodier and nastier than before, I contacted them about that and let them have it. So they issued ANOTHER shipping label. I printed it. Had to go out and buy bubble wrap for my product (Which cost $17.00) and FINALLY I dropped it off at a Fed-Ex location. They received it, gave me e-mail updates on how it was going. They sent me an e-mail saying Your computer has been repaired and has been prepared for shipment. You will receive another eMail containing the shipping tracking number. Great, its been repaired! But, shouldnt they have written monitor not computer? Oh, well, whatever, its repaired. Yippee! I received it 5 days later with a letter stating, We are returning your product to you non-repaired because it was deemed a potential health issue. There is evidence that the product that was sent in for service has been damaged by a substance that may pose a health risk to our repair technicians and as such cannot be repaired by the manufacturer. Oh, but, If you are interested in purchasing a replacement unit, please contact such-and-such-email and a representative will contact you with pricing information. You effin bas***** I called them up immediately and YELLED at poor little Spanish Mary. What the heck do you deem a potential health issue? Dust? Cat hair? Windex? I didnt drop the dang thing in a nuclear pool! I told her I cant keep shipping this back and forth, its uneconomical for both of us and you better as he!! repair it. So she opened a new case and said she would e-mail me a shipping label and I could send it back off for repair. Well, guess what? That shipping label never showed up. If youre looking for a monitor, honestly, I would recommend going with an HP. Ive had to call HP up twice in the past month and their customer service has been far more outstanding than Acer. My printer had a print-head error, so they sent me a refurbished printer, gave me the instructions on putting the old printer in the same box my new one came in. Gave me a shipping label. They made it so easy and supplied everything. And then to make a long story short they gave me a free set of black and color ink due to some catridge problems I was having. Id trust HP to repair my monitor if something went wrong; Acer does nothing. Its a good thing I fought for the shipping label because I would have been out more than $17.00. I cannot tell you to not buy this monitor, but if you decide youre going to because its affordable and it has more good reviews than bad, keep in mind that with any purchase youre taking a gamble, especially with Acer products. If ANYTHING goes wrong, chances are remote that you will actually get the problem resolved. If they dont give you a shipping label the way they gave me one, and then if they ship it back to you non-repaired, youve just thrown $40-$50 away, if not more because there is absolutely no guarantee theyll fix your product when they receive it. Youll be better off buying a new monitor. For me, the stress isnt worth it. I gave up, which Im sure is what they want me to do. Im sad my nice, new monitor is going to be put away in storage and only used now for emergencies, (the red lines running through the monitor isnt the end of the world, but it is slightly irritating). While the monitor was off to repair my brother was kind enough to give me one of his old Dell monitors. Its pretty old, and you know what? It works great. I really like this monitor. The product when it worked was really nice, it was. I would have given it five stars. And I understand that everything comes from crap-a$$ China now. I know youre inevitably going to get bad stuff so I can deal with faulty hardware. Had I gotten the monitor back repaired it would have received a 3 or 4 star rating, but it was the customer service--or lack there of!--that really, really gets the 1 star because 0 isnt an option. Theres 0--Zero customer service. So like I said, if you buy it, keep in mind that if anything goes wrong Acer will not be there to help you. Youre on your own with this one.
