Acer P244w

Acer's native-1080p display wins points for hitting the widescreen 16:9 formfactor, but the P244w treats its colors with the same unpleasantness it treats its grayscales. The monitor's color saturation suffers from a reduced range on both the top and...

Native-1080p support; acceptable grayscale detail

No height adjustment, component inputs; too-bright blacks, reduced color saturation range

Start saving your phone books: You can’t adjust the height of this display. And we dislike how the display’s presets don’t appear to vary the image quality very much at all. The P244w’s list of connections—DVI, VGA, and HDMI—lacks the component option...

Acer P244W

Filling in the rather niche space between commonplace 22-inch LCD monitors and larger 26-inch models, Acer's 24-inch P244W promises buyers a hefty chunk of screen and full 1080p resolution for a reasonable $340. While the price manages to please,...

Price; attractive bezel; good for motion

Flimsy stand with few adjustments; mediocre image quality; no DVI port (on our model)

Acer's budget 24 incher doesn't quite pop with color, but it redeems itself with price and video performance.

There is real value in seeing live comparisons of monitors you are considering purchasing and there is a case here for requesting a live demo of the Acer P244W Bii before you part with your money. There is no question of its ability to provide you with...

Acer P244W

I bought one of these back at holiday special pricing in December. It can still be purchased in the upper $270 range if you take time to look around. But $320 is a very fair price point.

Flakey after less than a year taps

The original review is below. Last night when powered on, it would not stop cycling though it's menus, selecting attributes and changing their values at random (timings, picture quality, nothing was safe). It took several power cycles to exercise the...

Don't buy this monitor

I wish I would have researched this monitor before I bought it. Now I'm stuck with it!

Warning

I loved this monitor until I tried to hook it up with a few Gigibyte H55 MBs via HDMI. Utter fail. Will not wake from sleep with picture. Will not boot with picture unless monitor s rebooted. This is only true with HDMI. D-Sub functions flawlessly. The...

Price ; Picture quality

Does not play nice with Intel H55 chipsets

Awesome 1080p

Bought this as an open item from NewEgg. The disclaimer warns that it won't come with any of the accessories. Maybe I was just lucky, but I got all the accessories and saved some money. YMMV. I had a hard time deciding between this and the 24" ASUS. I...

Awesome at 1080p resolution. Screen is sharp, clear, and even looks good at lower resolutions, though I'll be leaving it at 1920x1080 except when my gfx card can't handle it for some games. It doesn't have speakers on it, which is great. I never would...

The touch-sensitive buttons to make adjustments are difficult to use. You have to poke at them a little bit to get them to do anything, and the menu is a little slow. It's a pain now as I'm calibrating it, but once everything is set, I won't be pushing...
