5.0 out of 5 stars Monitor works fine, March 31, 2010

This review is from: Acer X183H Bb 18.5-Inch Widescreen LCD Display - Black (Personal Computers)

I have deployed over ten of these monitors and they all work fine. Basic monitor without any bells and whistles. Screen is bright and colors pop.

The reviewer that posted about the blurry pic is having a technical issue not related to the product. You have to set your computer's resolution to the "native" resolution of your monitor which for this montior is 1366x768. Most people think you can just unplug an old monitor and connect a new one but that is not correct. In their review they stated they had a CRT monitor which is not widescreen and therefore their resolution is probably 1024x768 which is probably causing their issue.

Buy with confidence as these monitors have a three year warranty. I have purchased Acer monitors that required warranty service (they were almost three years old and were on non-stop). The warranty process is pretty straight forward. Go to Acer's warranty site, fill out your information, ship the monitor to a repair center (Texas in my case) and receive the monitor back repaired in about a week.

Length:: 0:51 Mins

Before I get into the review, let me just say: I'm no tech whiz, but I'm not exactly what you'd call computer illiterate.

This monitor came with a pretty much useless "instruction manual" that doesn't give you a step-by-step guide to setting this thing up (their step-by-step makes no mention of the CD, or when/if computer should be turned on, etc.) But fear not, it's really not hard to figure out. It simply comes with the VGA cable and the power cord. Connect the cords accordingly. (A 10 year old could figure it out. "Square peg goes into the....? That's right, Johnny.")

It comes with a CD, but I didn't even have to use it. I connected this thing literally 5 minutes ago, took me about two minutes to plug it all up and get it working (yeah, I guess my excitement might have played a part in it.) And now I'm enjoying this widescreen monitor. Very crisp picture. I even took a quick video of it so you can all check it out and see if it's what you're looking for.

Note: I am connecting this to my tiny Acer Aspire One netbook... got sick and tired of the itty bitty screen (serious eye strain). Especially while doing graphic artwork on it.

Video Note: No narration. Just showing you the setup. The clip you're seeing in my uploaded video is the film Let's Make It Legal, streaming from Netflix. I Love that I can watch movies on a larger screen now!

Packaging note: This item was double boxed. The outside box simply was labeled Amazon (so no one would know what's inside).. and then the inside box was the ACER box. Good hassle-free packaging.

Hope this helped.
