Acer G246HL Abd 24-Inch Screen LED-Lit Monitor

While this monitor does deliver vibrant colors for a budget price, there are some serious defects. It has lousy blacks, especially from an angle. If youre not directly in front of the monitor looking slightly down at it, youll be very disappointed if you have a dark or black-based screen saver. The blues are a little hot but can be corrected with color and gamma balance, but it takes a slow and steady hand, even youre used to working with Acers clunky interface. Ive used several other Acer monitors over the years and I will use them again, but not this model. Its the worst LED monitor Ive ever purchased. I would recommend that you stay clear of this monitor and continue shopping.

These monitors are pretty low quality (washed out blacks and blown out whites), so theres really no way to recover the color saturation quality due to how cheapy they are. Tasks this monitor is good for: Browsing the web Tasks this monitor is not good for: Watching movies Graphic design Web development Anything that requires color accuracy I looked for help online that would tell me how to correct the color, but I couldnt find anything. If youre just wanting a monitor for the sake of having a monitor, this definitely works. However, if you do any sort of design, development, graphic design or any other task that needs color quality, I wouldnt recommend this monitor. I gave it 2 stars, because I dont think this monitor is meant to be great, but its definitely priced out of its category. Id recommend a $99.00 price tag for a monitor like this.

No signs of dead pixels or other outright failure to display. All 2.1 megapixels are here, but are they good? Spoilers - not really. The backlighting differs between the top and bottom, colors are washed out and it looks white no matter how you adjust it. Even the ideal viewing angle seems different between the top and the bottom, and this is made worse by the lack of tilt and elevation features. Im not even a graphic designer and sometimes the quality just irritates me. Still, I bought this during a flash sale for 70$ - at that price I cant fault it, however at almost 100$ Id look at something else. And I kind of regret it at that price.
