PC Monitor Acer S275HL Review

Some PC monitors developers pay great attention to the products' design, the others try to stuff them with all novel technologies. But only a few know how to combine a sophisticated design with a prime display quality. Acer belongs exactly to this echelon, gratifying its customers only with outstanding products. Monitor Acer S275HL constitutes this corroboration, as it provides for an optimal compromise between the integrated facilities and price.

General Specifications

Acer S275HL employs eIPS panel and features 27-inch display with 16:9 aspect ratio. The nominal display resolution equals to 1920x1080 pixels. This model is equipped with LED backlit that promotes for wide viewing angels (178/178 degrees V/H), fast response time (GtG) of 6 ms, and maximal brightness of 250 cd/m2. The number of displayed colors approximates 16.7 m. Static contrast demonstrates analogous to the rival models index – 1000:1, while dynamic contrast is considered to be outstanding, showing the index of 100 m:1.

The nominal delivery kit includes a couple of the most demanded cables: D-Sub to D-Sub and HDMI to HDMI. Besides these two cables, the package consists of a brief user's guideline, quick setup guideline, external power supply unit, power cable, and dedicated drivers.

Design

First of all, it should be noted that S275HL has got a stylish and modern design. Its glossy screen covers the major part of the display, leaving a barely visible frame. Such approach approximates closely to the most up-dated Zero Frame design technology. At the same time, the depth of the casing equals only to 15 mm. The stand features dull texture with the implementation of an additional silver insertion. The base, to contrast the stand, has got a glossy coverage and is placed asymmetrically to the central axis. To please the design requirements, Acer manufacturers had to use an external PSU type. Altogether, the monitor's design is so ascetic that one might find no inscriptions or labels on its external surfaces.

Framework

Video interface panel is notable by the absence of a traditional for all contemporary monitors DVI-D port. Instead, Acer has integrated two HDMI ports to supplement a single D-Sub. Audio subsystem is represented by two stereo speakers (1.5V) which are thoroughly 'hidden' in the case. This stand allows the user to change only the angle of gradient; no other functional is stipulated for this model. Besides, there is the only possibility to employ the monitor as a desktop variant, since the case does not have special VESA clips. All control buttons found their places on the glossy base; all of them have appropriate inscriptions, though are void of any indicators.

Settings

Access to the main menu is realized via a particular key with a suitable inscription. 'Auto' key is intended for an automatic setup of signal parameters in case of analogue connection. All other buttons are responsible for the call of quick menus. For instance, navigation keys enable the change of volume for the integrated stereo speakers. The main menu consists of four user-friendly sections: 'Display', 'OSD', 'Settings', and 'Information'.

As usual, 'Information' section showcases the data about the input signal and the model's serial number. 'Settings' section allows selecting video signal source, interface language, fill mode, and some other properties. If the user finds some settings useless or inappropriate, there is always a chance to clear them and employ factory settings.

'Display' section is responsible for the setup of display parameters, brightness, contrast, and signal conversion mode. Whatever the access mode is concerned, the user is able to select one of the color temperature modes: warm, cold or user. There is one peculiarity pertained to this section: it is feasible to get from the main window to the preset subsection, but it's unfeasible to complete the inverse action. In case of analogue connection, there are some other settings available to customers: signal focusing, adjustment of synchronization frequency, adjustment of display position (vertical and horizontal).

The final 'OSD' section is totally dedicated to the main window parameters. Thus, among the variety of settings, the two are the most important ones: window location (H/V) and time of its display.
