Acer AL2616Wd 25.5-Inch Wide-Screen LCD Monitor

Best for viewing office documents, this 26-inch (25.5-inch viewable area) LCD's weak graphics performance defeats its low price.

Good for office documents ; Low price

Below-average graphics performance ; Tilt-only adjustment

The excellent price of the Acer AL2616Wd notwithstanding, those looking for a big monitor may be better off shelling out more money to get better graphics

Acer AL2616Wd

At $649 (as of December 10, 2007), the Acer AL2616Wd is part of the company's "Value Line" of monitors and proves that you get what you pay for. Though its performance scores were solid, they were well below average for its class.

Good for office documents ; Low price

Below-average graphics performance ; Tilt-only adjustment

Acer AL2216 review

LCD monitors aren't just displays anymore--they often come with a full suite of extras such as speakers, USB ports, and yes, even an iPod dock . While the extras are nice, they have a habit of driving the price of the display up and if you already have...

Inexpensive; solid performance for the price; HDCP-compatible DVI port.

No extras such as speakers or USB ports.

Acer AL2216W is a bare-bones LCD monitor, but it represents a good value with its low price and relatively solid performance.

Acer AL1916

Snatching up this clearance LCD may prove difficult, but if you can find it, the Acer AL1916 will tackle your business and office tasks beautifully.

Affordable. Good color quality. Thin bezel.

Analog only. Limited adjustability. Average grayscale performance. Slow pixel-response time.

Acer AL2416WD Monitor

Taking a tour of the low-cost Acer AL2416Wd requires just a few minutes. This sleek, black-and-silver, 24-inch wide-screen monitor employs a simple design with no added accouterments.

Great image quality on "user" mode Excellent price

Few extras

Because the AL2416Wd costs so little ($919 when tested), it's hard to knock it for doing so little. If you're looking for a big screen built to fit a small budget, the AL2416Wd could be the answer

Acer AL2016WB Widescreen 20-inch Widescreen LCD Monitor

Today I will be looking at the Acer AL2016WB 20" Widescreen LCD Monitor, a budget-minded upgrade to the 19" standard-dimension monitor. Besides being my own first widescreen monitor, it will also be my first display over 19". Will this monitor sell me...

Low Price ; Good performance for an economy-priced monitor

No DVI, sub-15 is the only interface ; Very little capability for adjusting settings ; Screen shuts down temporarily if non-supported resolution is chosen

I really didn't know how I would feel about a widescreen monitor before this review, but it didn't take me very long to decide that I really like them. The capability of having larger multiple windows open at one time, or one really wide window was...

Acer AL1916 LCD

In the last twelve months LCDs have really gone mainstream, so with prices falling and screen sizes rising now seemed a good time for our first ever LCD review. For today's review we will be looking at the refurbished Acer AL1916 LCD, graciously...

DVI connector ; No ghosting ; Low price

Black slightly washed out ; OSD menus not well organized

The bottom line is that while the Acer AL1916 is not quite perfect, what few minor issues it has--like a slightly washed out looking black. None of them are IMO a deal breaker; on the plus side you get a good basic 19” LCD with a DVI connector that...

Acer AL1916W Review

Neoseeker Reviews the AL1916W widescreen 19 inch monitor from Acer

The AL1916WB from Acer offers a relatively decent value. This monitor represents the first widescreen monitor aimed directly at the masses, and its general performance will match what a majority of that market will expect.

Acer AL2616WD

With the increasing proliferation of PCs as full featured entertainment devices, the demand for larger, widescreen displays continues to grow. Fitting...

Sharp pictures, minimal noise, fast response time, lots of real-estate

Some minor over-saturation of reds and yellows, slight contrast issues

The image quality of the Acer AL2616WD is quite close to being flawless and considering the size and price this is a bargain purchase for anyone looking to take their PC display to the next level.
