- Strengths:
- Excellent quality, really fun to play some games in 3D. Good size and colour.
- Weaknesses:
- Owned 2. Both died within a year, only got the 2nd one because warranty replaced it. I do not recommend this product. Each failure was something different each time.
- Summary:
- Stick to another brand. Acer is not ready for the 3d world.

- Strengths:
- Aesthetically pleasing
Crisp screens
Next to no ghosting
- Weaknesses:
- price
changing settings is somewhat frustrating, but i rarely do anymore so thats fine
- Summary:
- Ive had this monitor now for going on 6 months and its been nothing but amazing ever since. Friends come over and play games at 120hz and immediatley notice a huge difference in the quality.
Solid monitor!
Don't waste the money

- Strengths:
- -High crystal clear 1080p
-Nice looking Orange highlights
-Shiny border making the screen reflect onto it slightly (personal preference)
-Built for gaming
-3D capable (Haven't tried yet)
- Weaknesses:
- -Have no clue what any of the buttons do beside the power because they're not labeled and theres nothing in the instructions for them
-Monitor jiggles from little movements like typing
- Summary:
- I'm coming from a 19" 1440x900 which I used at 1280x1024 so the resolution makes a huge difference and everything is crystal clear. Going to be picking up a 3d kit for this to see how it looks and feels. I don't have much to compare this to but overall it's pretty great.

- Strengths:
- size, lightness, 120MHZ, 3D
- Weaknesses:
- Input chooser is clumsy,
- Summary:
- Bought with the Nvidia 3DVision kit. Trouble getting it to be recognized as a 3D monitor, but if this happens it works even with "generic PNP Monitor drivers for Win7, as long as it is recognized in the NVidia 3d set up screen as a choice in the check box you should be good.
Also USE the DUAL DVI-D cable. Without using that you are stuck at 60 Hz max. With it gets you to 120Hz.
I'd give this a 5/5 but for the cludgy input chooser.
So far so good

- Strengths:
- Looks nice -Orange and black accents
Very easy to put together
VERY LIGHT!
Awesome 3D - definately have to play a in 3d game to appreciate.
1080P and HDMI inputs - very bright.
- Weaknesses:
- Poor acer interface
Some darker games are too dark using 3D Vision.
Never really had trust in the acer brand.
- Summary:
- Bought this with the 3d Glasses, definately worth it. Went from a samsung 24" monitor to the Acer and wont go back. Only problem is the clumsy acer interface for adjusting brightness/contrast etc - its not very intuative and you have to use it over and over to get use to it.
Overall extremely happy. New toy to show my friends.
