I could go on, TVs make terrible computer monitors.

I was wondering how long it would take for someone to take a swipe at the resolution. Steal of a deal if you ask me, VA panel too so nice inky blacks. Its a lotta Monitor for £109.

It doesn't worth a penny

Bargain.

I have always wondered. Nowadays TV's are dirt cheap, so why buy a monitor over a large TV?

He can English.

Also reading text from a big tv screen is pretty tiring on the eyes.

TVs are also usually too bright to sit on your desk - you'd need sunglasses to sit 2 foot away from them or you'll start squinting.

The resolution is also poor for the size as well.

According to the reviews there is no HDMI

Nice price.

Anything above 24" and you should really be looking at a 1440p monitor. Heat for the deal though.

Anyone know of any 2k monitors that are on offer?

there is no theory here - only facts. What are you intending to test?

Pixels per inch.

Don't buy this.

That is all.


EDIT:

Also, just saw this review, it makes me wonder what people define phenomenal quality as, especially when comparing it to display on a MBP. I'm not an Apple fan in any shape, but if it's got anything going for it; the display panels they use take a long long long time to age....

Good Points+
Brilliant, sharp picture - phenomenal quality especially considering the price. Puts my MacBook Pro to shame.

Bad Points−
It's obviously a cheap monitor. It's not flimsy but the surface finish on materials, sharp edges etc lacks refinement. But hey, look at the price you are paying - it's a great piece of kit. Have not tried the menu buttons yet - but it worked perfectly for me straight out of the box. "

It's a £110 monitor - not sure why people are commenting on pixels and comparisons to tv's. Decent brand and its big..
Hot BTW

A 4K 40-inch TV is essentially four full HD 20-inch put together. I can live with that. Currently have a 28-inch 4K and looking to upgrade.

no

EDIT: I'm being dense (excuse the pun) my apologies for doubting you..

i cant be bothered researching

is it good or not ?

"in context" is the operative word. numb nuts quoting 4k tv's. or someone talking about pixels is not relevant. You get what you pay for.

YOU dont see why someone would want this and you can't go in to specifics of an individual because that would make your arguments invalid.

For people looking for a 1080p 27inch monitor in this price bracket this is good.

For people looking for a monitor in this price bracket and aren't too bothered by size; https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B015510R4M?SubscriptionId=AKIAID2HUF7VPZYSVYFQ&camp=2025&creative=165953&creativeASIN=B015510R4M&linkCode=xm2&pc_redir=T1&tag=pcad03-21

Bigger monitor= more immersion, as it fills more of your view. Hence 34 inch 21:9 monitors are great for gaming.

Bigger monitor, drawn into game......come on Doom boom!

Resolution is relative to how far you sit from the screen. A screen like this is great for a bedroom.
Acceptable for PC use and acceptable for viewing Netflix from bed.
Resolution junkies would tell you a 1080p 60" screen viewed from 8 metres away would be too low. Those same people probably watch the football down the pub on an 80" projection at 800x600 pixels.

Doesn't even have HDMI according to reviews, poor monitor in my humble opinion, and a slow response at 6ms, most monitors in the 1-200 quid range are 3-5, maybe even 1

Wow so many resolution snobs trolling any deal for a monitor. You'd swear that they were all running autocad when in reality they watch low quality porn and movies in the bedroom of their mum's house

Does anyone know if this is compatible with a monitor bracket? (VESA mount?)

I had a quick look at the specs and couldn't see it...

TIA

So you are admitting to spying into peoples bedrooms as they watch porn? Definite Rules of Conduct breach. MODS, DESTROY HIM.

Yes

you mush have a mighty big desk , too much money or an understanding partner who doesn't mind you hogging the TV. Most people have seperate work & "playstations"unless your a teenager or single guy

You must be a salesman's dream!

I'd say most people are fine with a 6ms response time. Considering someone is buying this they probably haven't got a gaming rig that'll do 1080p60fps so I wouldn't worry too much about it. This is probably a good basic monitor for your office or whatever.

I've got a small Dell laptop hooked up to my Samsung TV for watching Netflix, couchtuner etc.. It's a long way from being a terrible monitor

Because you're using it as a TV by the sounds of it.

Not just that. It's fine for surfing the web.

Sounds awful.

Lol my old GPU was a R9 280 and it games at 1440p fine. Current R9 390X has no issues either. If you watch the Potato Masher video series on YouTube even a very modest gaming PC will easily run games at 1440p.

While many games are rendered well these days that is kinda not true, of coursea better pc with a more powerful cpu, gpu, better/more RAM etc... would run games faster or at better visuals. If you were right everyone would be building old 200 quid pentium PCs and banging out BF4 on Ultra

True, for an office setup or ok tv I guess... altho the fact that its Acer and meant to *doesnt* have HDMI means many people will consider it for gaming, and its really just not up to the task in terms of gaming

So do you.

Out of Stock ? :confused:

In stock, out of stock............shake your stock about.

I'm looking for something around this size to use as TV in the bedroom. Would this work fine as a TV with a sky box connected to it? Also can anyone actually confirm whether or not it has a HDMI port? Any help is much appreciated :smiley:

It looks like this one the Acer K272HLbid has HDMI but the other Acer on ebuyer : Acer K272HL- http://www.ebuyer.com/718360-acer-k272hl-27-full-hd-led-dvi-monitor-um-hw3ee-010 is vga & dvi only

No idea on the HDMI etc, but I doubt it has speakers which can make it a pain to use as a TV - unless you have something in place already paying the extra few quid for a TV will probably be cheaper (and look better) than buying this and some separate speakers or a soundbar.

it does have HDMI.

Thanks for the info! :smile: I hadn't even thought about speakers and just presumed they were built in, so u saved me there! It's just a shame finding a TV around this size and fhd and under £200 is so difficult :disappointed:
