Acer's 24'' LCD Has 8,000,000:1 Contrast Ratio

[citation][nom]Upendra09[/nom]why do the lower end manufacturers come out with better stuff, like dell and acer?[/citation]

heh, they come out with better specs on paper...

What's the point of making the display so thin if the base is more fat-bottomed than the girls in a Queen song?
And why can't I find a decent monitor with a REAL 2.5K:1 contrast ratio anymore, instead of dynamic?

Eh i don't care for high contrast over actually having correct display of colors.

 

[Guest]

so what does the contrast ratio mean to average users? Black is darker and white is whiter?
But the brightness is still about the same level as a regular screen (less even).
250cd/m2 is not bright enough to see clearly in daylight, when the sun shines on the monitor!
With these high contrast ratios, and low energy consumption, they would have been better to increase the overall brightness range, so that it's not only useable in a dark room.

If it's not 120Hz, then I'm not interested. When do we get SYNCMASTER 2233RZ 24 - 25" ????

1920x1080? WTF!

24" displays should have at least 1920x1200.

 

[jivdis1x]

Who cares if it doesn't do 1920x1200 at 240hz with 2ms refresh. This thing can do laser eye surgery with that contrast ratio.

 

[thejerk]

i'm with belardo. i can actually use the extra vertical resolution.

Can't wait until Newegg sell them.

You'd think the type of panel used would be important to know... guess not.
Probably a lame TN panel.

Yeah, it gives me a stiffy.

2048x1152 should be the minimum (best for viewing two web pages at once).

Can you people stop bitching about your 120Hz already?

[citation][nom]matt87_50[/nom]dynamic contrast is a joke, unless its local dimming.[/citation]

I was just about to say the exact same thing.

Wow at 27 watts. My 26" IPS monitor tops out at 135! Hopefully the superior image quality is worth the extra penny an hour I'm spending on power consumption.

I'm really curious as to how good this contrast thingamajig really is. I mean, if you take something that is totally and absolutely black which means that the illuminance is zilch. Then even a very low level of illuminance will be infinitely stronger than the black level, so the contrast ratio would then be, ...., infinity:1. But that doesn't necessarily mean that it is good, right?

I don't care anything in buying LCD unless it has true 24 bit S-IPS panel. I really hate super hi end expensive LCD / LCD TV with TN panel. It mean you are being cheated. All TN Panel is 18 bit. For me it is ok if in the marketting they market TN panel as 18 bit, but I hate today because they lied about this.

Too bad it's so small

I'll sure do what I can to make sure that the next panel I buy is an IPS, preferably H-IPS which I've heard have transparent electrodes. But how about the ###PVA/###MVA panels, are they really that bad? I'm just asking.

[citation][nom]jcwhite[/nom]every acer monitor i've had has either stopped working or massed dead/bright pixels, and never enough under their policy to justify a RMA, and judging by the fact this looks like a tn lcd, im probly going to pass[/citation]
I'm the exact opposite. My computer and my brother's both use Acer monitors that don't have any issues whatsoever. Mine's over 4 years old and doesn't have a single dead/stuck pixel.

 

[JohnnyLucky]

Are those numbers real or is it just qadvertising hype?

amdgamer666 you are comparing apples to oranges, if you were smart enough you would know that an OLED is 10 times the price of that Acer display. So of course the OLED would smash the Acer in half...Oled's are more targeted towards the wealthy... Acer targets the budget crowd... Simple as that...
