Acer S231HL bid 23-Inch Widescreen Ultra-Slim LED Display - Black Review

I bought mine 7 months ago, and it was a great value at $180. Almost a five star product, but some minor issues. When I opened the box, I was shocked to find an HDMI, DVI, and VGA cable waiting inside. I figured most companies would make you purchase the HDMI and DVI separately, so that was a nice surprise. This is good for the person that doesn't know to tell the Best Buy salesman to piss off when he tries to sell them a Monster HDMI cable for $80. I'm buying another one of these monitors, so that should tell you something.

PROS:
-Excellent picture quality for the price range
-Very small and lightweight, but solid structure (read below about the stand - the exception)
-Sleek, attractive, minimalist design
-Comes with HDMI, DVI, and VGA cords
-No problems interfacing with laptop and desktop computers
-No dead pixels

CONS:
-Less than perfect buttons and user interface
-Can't disable the power button's light
-No extra features like speakers or USB Hub (but I knew that getting into the deal, so I didn't take off any points)

Interfacing:
When I first plugged it into my laptop, there were no problems recognizing it or getting it to display in full resolution. I wasn't too happy with the default coloring (it seemed rather cold to me) so I played with it for a bit, and it looks great now.

User Interface and Buttons:
I was stuck at 4.5 stars, and this is the part that made me go with four stars instead of five. The user interface is pretty bad. The buttons aren't labeled because they are multi-function. When you press any of them, the menu appears on screen and assigns each button an action. You get to choose between a user mode and four others (Eco, Standard, Graphics, and Movies). The customization gives you enough freedom, but physically working with it is just clunky. The buttons would have been a lot easier to use on the side, rather than on the bottom. I would have also liked dedicated Enter and Back/Cancel buttons for the menu. The other problem with the interface is the Power button. It has two LEDs inside - one blue, one orange-yellow. The blue one displays whenever it is turned on and is receiving an image from the computer. When the computer goes to sleep, the button switches to yellow. This is all fine and dandy, but I haven't figured out a way to disable the LEDs. This is kind of annoying because I like my room to be extremely dark at night, and the lights are rather bright. If I find out how to disable these, I'll come back and change the review to five stars.

Picture Quality:
The monitor uses a matte screen, rather than a glossy one. I much prefer this. If you don't know the difference, look it up - matte basically sacrifices a bit of contrast to reduce glare. I use my monitor to watch full HD movies, play games on PS3, and do standard computer work/games. All of it looks even better than on my HDTV (but that's not hard because it's a budget Vizio). I can't say much about hardcore gaming because I'm only a casual gamer. As for video quality, it's a huge step up from my laptop's monitor, but you have to keep in mind that this is a super cheap LED monitor. Don't expect it to match your brand new $3,000 TV for picture quality. For the price, though, I was absolutely thrilled at all aspects of the picture quality. If you check out the specs on it, you won't be very impressed by anything, so I suggest you take a look at it in person if you can. Always trust your own eyes for picture quality, because going by manufacturer specifications alone can be misleading sometimes. Go to a store for viewing before you purchase online, and I think you'll like what you see.

Design and Build Quality:
It is super thin and lightweight, and the frame around the edges is pretty thin, which is nice. That being said, it still feels solid, except for the stand. The stand was a bit of a disappointment, as it's just a tad wobbly and my monitor is (ever so slightly) off level. I'm getting pretty picky here, because you pretty much have to get a level out to notice it. Otherwise, everything is solid, sleek, and sexy. Nothing flashy, just a nice, simple design.
