Acer B227Q bmiprzx 21.5 16:9 IPS Monitor
Amazing image quality!
I have never been happier with a purchase. I honestly can say that I am blown away by the improvement in picture quality, color accuracy, and just the comfort of the aspect ratio. To be fair I have been using the cheapest available 1080p LCD monitor until now (also from Acer). Regardless, this is an incredible step up, and I wish I had done it sooner. I have decided to use this monitor primarily for my daily surfing and media manipulation machin... Show More

Everything I Wanted
I bought two of these about a month ago. These are used as a dual monitor setup for work (90%) and gaming (10%). The monitors are perfect for work and I really like the 1920x1200 resolution after coming from a 1920x1080. These monitors have a refresh rate of 75hz which I consistently hit when playing games (GTX 1660, 75 fps). They also have adaptive synch (e.g. FreeSynch) which works with Nvidia over DisplayPort. The stands are much better than ... Show More

Great monitor, poor user guide
Great picture, adjustments and options. Truly, a quality product. However, the set up instructions unbelievably omit all the steps needed to turn on the monitor. That being, after you plug in the power cord, you must turn on the power. That switch sits right next to the power socket. Then, you must press the round button on the bottom right rear. Then you must tap the top switch in the row of switches above that round bottom for the screen to act... Show More

Great Bang for your buck
Needed a 16:10 and this monitor delivers exactly what I needed. Good viewing angle (IPS), nice colour, bezels are slim, VESA mount, USB 3.0 hub. Good price too. Definitely gives the Dell 24 16:10 monitor equivalent a run for their money. Very happy with my purchase. My only gripe is the Acer display widget software for Windows is poorly designed. Since I have the monitor in vertical orientation, I wanted to use it for its split screen function... Show More

Great little monitor
I just got this last week so I haven't had a chance to set up the color calibration, but it sounds like it will work well. I replaced an old tv that was on its last legs and had at least 10 dead pixels in one spot. So photo editing was fun... The screen is good quality and has some nice options like blue light filter and some others. I personally don't use the blue light filter as warming an image up is basically ruining any editing I do. But it is nice to have if i need it for some other use. And the price on deal of the day ($95-100) was great.

GREAT monitor!
This is a really good monitor. My favorite feature is the ability to swivel the screen and use this as a vertical monitor. This makes it really useful for looking at full web pages and seeing a lot more items on sites like Netflix. Also, the colors are very vibrant and there is no flicker or lag on video sites. The set up was super easy and the monitor is very well constructed. My only issue would be the speakers, (which aren't that good!) but since I have a decent pair of speakers attached to my computer, this was a non-issue for me.

Bets budget IPS gaming monitor
I spent a lot of time comparing monitors. My primary criteria were IPS screen type (looks way better than TN, go into a store and compare if you're not sure), adjustable ergonomics, modern thin bezel design, and some gaming functionality (freesync). The number of monitors that meet all these criteria is extremely limited but this one met them at a budget price. I bought two side by side and am happy so far. Note that there are many model numbers that sound similar so double check the exact part number vs acers website.

Good monitor for average use
I bought this monitor for use with a PC laptop that I play with to see what Microsoft is doing. My Main computer is an iMac. I wanted a larger screen for the PC. It has met all my expectations, even though there was no HCMI cable. There was every other cable know to man, but no HDMI which I believe would be the most used. Luckily I had a HDMI cable on hand. Not as good as my 5K iMac screen, but not really much worse.

Freesync & Overdrive mode has noticeable ghosting
When Freesync mode is enabled the monitor forces you to use its overdrive setting. This setting causes noticeable ghosting when scrolling a web page. I am using the display port cable included with the monitor and a GTX 1070. When I turn off Freesync mode and turn off the overdrive setting there is no ghosting at all. It would be nice to be able to turn off overdrive mode with Freesync mode turned on.

Works great with macbook pro
This monitor was used as part of livestream setup with a mac book pro and it worked flawlesly. It replaced an older Apple thunderbalt display. The most important feature was the built-in USB 3.2 ports, no more docks required for the MacBookPro witch only come with 2 USB3. The built in HDMI-audio also help to monitor the livestream. Overall has more modern and useful features than most monitors.

Really nice monitors at low price
The monitors are almost everything I was expecting. Almost, because it does have a 1/4 black gap at top/sides so zero frame advertisement is misleading. The pictures were they show images going all the way to the top/sides are fake. Other than that, they are much better than my old Dells. The widget to adjust them without having to mess with buttons is a plus.

Stunning display
Love the display and resolution. Cut one star for super slow free shipping and old-age return policies of BHPhoto. Just hoping I don't have to worry about returning. So far so good :). Display is as advertised. Sits taller vertically than my other 24inch monitors. But easy to put together and adjust. Built in speakers are great as well.

Good quality monitor for less than $200
Quality monitor without having to shell out the extra dollars for the Dell 16:10 24 equivalent. Picture is fine, colors are good as well, no issues so far. Love the 16:10 aspect ratio, the width at the bottom beats having a 16:9 monitor any day for all sorts of activities (web browsing, image viewing/editing, programming, etc).

Fantastic Monitor
For the price paid, this monitor has all the neccessary features. It's easy to setup and the pre brightness looked great. Just a couple of things I would change: 1. I rather have it come with a hdmi cable vs a displayport cable. 2. Even at its lowest setting, it's still bright so I rather have it be darker.

Works like a charm
Unpacked, assembled and got it running in 15 minutes. Connected to an older laptop via hdmi cable. Comes with cables and has built in speakers. Its 16:10 so the height is more than standard 16:9 so there is more vertical room for reading or visualizing documents. Thanks.

Good IPS monitor, got a good price
I'm happy with this monitor. Been in use regularly for almost 6 months, no problems. Color calibrated with Spyder4Pro to 99% of sRGB. For reference, by Dell U2415 only got to 98% sRGB. I can't tell the difference.

Great Product. Great price.
The low price of this item had me worried it would lack quality, but to my surprise, this product is amazing! I have been using it everyday since i received it and I have had no trouble.

Very good monitor
This monitor is really good: bright, sharp, flicker-free, easy to set up & use. I bought it through a deal ($99.99) and now regretted because I should have bought 2 more at that price.

Keep Coming Back to Acer!
I love AU Optronics panel quality. Acer also does gamma adjustment and black stabilization really, really well, which prevents black crush that most IPS and VA panels present for me.
