Acer S230HL


$169.99 Released September, 2011

Product Shot 1 The Pros:Unusually light construction, easy to carry around. Stand is solid and stable despite the light weight. Very bright, can handle any lighting conditions without a problem.

The Cons:Uneven lighting makes it difficult to work with in photo editing - very inconsistent throughout. Difficult to find the buttons, need to memorize where they are. Often need to adjust the brightness down as it gets too bright.

The Acer S230HL is a mid-range 23" LED-backlit LCD computer monitor with a native 1920 x 1080 display resolution. It features a 5ms response time, a 100,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio (static: 1,000:1) and 16.7 Million colours.

Product Shot 2 Additionally, the S230HL sports a VGA video input, a brightness rating of 250 cd/m² and a slim, modern design.

The S230HL's 5ms response time allows it to better handle fast-action media like video games, sports and action movies, resulting in a clearer picture with no ghosting or blurring. Its 100,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio provides the S230HL with brighter whites and darker blacks by way of localized backlight dimming which is fairly exact due to its LED backlighting. Meanwhile, the S230HL's slim, modern design is meant to take up little room on a desktop while its matte screen reflects little light for optimal picture clarity even in brightly lit rooms.
