CNET product brief
Description: The Acer AL1916CBD is a 19 in, flat panel computer monitor.Compared to other flat panel monitors on the market, it is very inexpensive at around $200.This LCD features a 1280x1024 native resolution.Weighs 12.3 lbs.
Pros: Its wide viewing angle (150 degrees) is useful whenever the screen is being viewed by more than one person at the same time.Accepts DVI input, which allows for greater signal clarity than traditional VGA.
Cons: Has 0.294 mm dot pitch, which is somewhat less favorable than some similarly priced monitors.Also, this monitor has only 1280x1024 resolution.This is not out of line with the product's price, but is lower than the average monitor on the market today.
Suitability: Designed for those who want a spacious screen that will not hog their entire desk.The 5 ms response time of this screen makes it ideal for fast-moving games and for watching movies.
Value: Given its very inexpensive price, this monitor has great features for the money.For example, when it comes to viewable screen size, the average price of flat panel monitors with similar viewable size is considerably more -- right around $315.
Suggestions: (1) Before purchasing an LCD monitor, consider visiting your local store for a live demo to ensure that its overall image quality, color, and sharpness meets your expectation.(2) Since this monitor is DVI-capable, you might want a DVI-enabled graphics card in your PC to connect with it -- this will pass the digital video signal directly without converting it to analog, making for better performance.
