Question: Is there really a big ghosting issue?
Document: The only issue with this monitor is the significant ghosting.I have found on the web for other acer monitors settings you can use to reduce/eliminate the overshoot, so hopefully once these monitors are widely available and have been reviewed, there will be a way to reduce this.Otherwise a great monitor...
All being said, however, I still haven't decided if this is something I can live with.Conclusion:I had a hard time deciding on 3 or 4 stars for this review. The lack of support for Android and touch knocks about a half a star off, while the ghosting issue is another 1 or 1.5. If these two issues were cleared up this monitor would easily be a 5 star product in my opinion.
Looks and works great. I have read other reviews that it's audio speakers are not music grade, but I have a separate pair of speakers for music, so this is not an issue.
This is a beautiful monitor.I took a risk, this is a very recent product from Acer and there is little written about it that I could find. My intended applications are Digital Audio and Photo processing.The colors and contrast are amazing and it is very responsive as a touch screen. I am really pleased with the picture quality.
The effect is noticeable when dragging windows around the desktop, and becomes worse when scrolling around an application like Google maps.After this, I connected it to my Windows 8 PC to give the touch a try and to see if the ghosting was limited to my Mac. Unfortunately it was not. Simply moving the mouse across the desktop produces a 1/4 inch shadow behind the cursor.
I've used this monitor for about a week, and overall it is pretty great. I'm not seeing any of the ghosting mentioned by the other reviewer, and overall the picture quality is very good. Good color, viewing angles, and no noticeable lag. I'm not a super picky gamer, but I don't feel that this has preformed poorly in terms of input lag or blur in any of the games I've thrown at it at full 1440p resolution.
worked first time, just plugged the thing in and it came up at full resolution. The touch function works great in windows 7. The large screen is worth the extra cost.
The monitor provides a beautiful display and display angles are easily adjustable. The overall appearance of the monitor is also attractive.On the other hand, the instructions that come with the monitor are awful. Both a USB and an HDMI connection are needed to ones laptop in order to enable the touch capabilities of the monitor; moreover, multiple settings must be adjusted in the Windows 8.1 Control Panel to activate the touch capability of the monitor, even after the cables are correctly attached.
The HD and QHD screens are so new that the extra extended warranty is worth the cost to me. Acer won't even offer an extended warranty until you have a serial number, which means you have to buy the unit, then take the chance you will find their warranty conditions acceptable. I find that unacceptable. Sorry Acer, you lose this customer.9.20.13. The Viewsonic TD2740 I ordered arrived and it's great.
The Apple Monitor has a downward firing speaker setup with a mini subwoofer. The Acer speakers sound like they are firing backwards, and have the power of a cell phone speaker from 2003. Also, the speakers connect via 3.5mm cable- not the USB cable that the mic and camera use.In summary, the picture quality and touch are great, but the bundled functionality of the camera, USB hub and speakers could be improved.
Answer: As an admitted quality snob, I would be lying if I said that the monitor has no ghosting because it most certainly does. However, it is no where near dramatic enough to be called an "issue." The ghosting effect can ONLY be seen when a dark object moves across a white, or nearly white background. For example, you will be able to see a very small amount of ghosting on the edge of icons inside an explorer window if you quickly drag said window from one side of the screen to the other. Other than that it's unlikely that you will ever notice it. I have watched many movies and played many FPS game sessions without being able to detect any ghosting. Bottom line, this monitor will NOT disappoint.
