Good - but not great?
Acer's monitor covers 95% of the DCI-P3 color gamut, making it suitable for tasks that demand precise color representation, such as content creation and video editing.
Acer VisionCare Technologies further enhance user comfort by reducing eye strain during prolonged usage. The monitor offers two HDMI 2.0 ports, one DisplayPort 1.2, and an audio out.
However as mentioned, be warned that it doesn't feature 4K output, so if you're working across super HD video or image editing, this might not be the right choice for you, and you might want to wait to spend your hard-earned money on a better deal.
If that is the case, stay tuned, because we'll be rounding up all the best Amazon Prime Day monitor deals as they happen.
