Thread: Acer X173W Monitor

Its light, with mediocre yet acceptable build quality. The lack of DVI is an annoyance as are the eyesore buttons-large and ugly, the lower bezel pouts at you like a puffY lip. DisplayMate was its unkind self, and the little Acer huffs to keep up with the contrast and colour tests. It does manage to pass, though by a hairsbreadth. In games, the lack of an adequate contrast is noticeable. At Rs 8,500 the X173W is a good entry level monitor, suitable for a home PC and Internet use. Don't expect too much from this 17-inch, though.
