Acer H274HLBMID Black 27" Full HD HDMI LED BackLight LCD Monitor w/Speakers 300 cd/m2 100,000,000:1 Max (ACM)

Pros: -Great display right out of the box, easy set-up, no real hassle
-Games and movies both look great
-Bright and vivid colors (had to turn down brightness)
-No ghosting or dead pixels
-Great screen real estate
-Comes with every cord you would ever need
-In short, a good quality monitor for a good price. Very happy with the purchase
-Very impressed with newegg delivery time as well

Cons: -With any monitor this large, the stand usually poses a small issue (as long as you don't bump your desk you're fine)
-Speakers are tinny and not too impressive
-I absolutely hate the touch screen buttons used to navigate the monitor menu
-Sucks to have only one hdmi port, I wish it had one more
-Windows 7 found the monitor no problem, but the entire screen was not occupied for some reason. There was about a quarter of an inch border around the entire windows display that wasn't being used -- a rather annoying thing to fix

Overall Review: -Not a huge gamer, but I had some worries about the 5ms response time. Turns out that was a stupid worry and games (and movies) look amazing on the big screen
-Great with the snap function for windows 7 as you can see 2 screens perfectly fine at once (awesome for multitasking)
-As mentioned before, the menu navigation buttons suck. I absolutely hate them. However, I don't use them too often so it is not enough to subtract an egg
-I got it for about $280 which is an amazing price for this monitor. I use it mainly for schoolwork, internet browsing and a casual game (like Fallout) here and there, and it doesn't disappoint. I was wavering between this and another monitor, and in the end I'm glad I pulled the trigger on this. Would definitely recommend!

Pros: Huge size, great price, looks amazing.

Cons: After 1 week, there is now a green line on the left side. dead pixels, will RMA.

Overall Review: None
