Acer accelerates big screens
Acer has added a range of 32″ monitors that feature 4K2K and WQHD resolutions. The monitors are aimed at gamers that need fast refresh rates and good contrast ratios.
Acer has announced its line-up of high resolution monitors with screens up to 32″ and sharper images in 4K2K and WQHD resolutions. In addition, Acer ColourPlus and Acer EyeProtect features deliver higher quality imagery. Acer will also be the world’s first to launch the 4K2K monitor in 32″ screen size.
Acer has three high resolution monitor series designed for individual, SMB, or corporate professionals who specialize in visual and gaming or work with complex data.
– Acer B6 specialty series designed for the commercial market with up to a 32-inch screen, features an ergonomic stand that allows the display to tilt -5 to 35 degrees and swivel 60 degrees to the left or right for maximum user comfort.
– Acer CB0 series for the prosumer market includes SMB and home offices, and features Acer EyeProtect and ColourPlus technologies to improve work productivity.
– Acer XB0 series for avid gamers: when used with a GeForce GTX-powered PC, NVIDIA G-SYNC display technology eliminates screen tearing and minimizes display stutter and input lag to deliver smoother, faster, and more responsive gaming.
Bigger screen and sharper imagery The new high resolution monitors with 27-32-inch screens offer more real estate to display expansive content. They display sharper images in WQHD (2560 x 1440 pixels) and 4K2K (3840 x 2160 pixels) that’s four times the resolution of 1080p Full HD, presenting stunning high quality images for outstanding visual enjoyment. On the 21:9 aspect ratio (2560 x 1080 pixels) models, users can view dual screens in landscape mode for convenient multi-tasking, or switch to portrait mode for viewing lengthy webpages or data with less page scrolling.
Acer ColourPlus for rich and consistent colours Acer ColourPlus is a set of technologies that ensures real and consistent colour output in addition to sharper and clearer visuals.
Built-in 100% sRGB colour correction technology delivers high colour accuracy and colour space reproduction, while the wide colour gamut provides rich, natural colours desired by design professionals and photo enthusiasts for accurate colour matching across applications and print output. A 6-axis colour independent adjustment permits precise colour and saturation control for customized settings. The 178 degrees wide viewing angle preserves image clarity and prime colours without colour shift or image distortion. In addition, super sharpness technology optimizes images from a lower resolution for clearer image quality, for example, optimizing a 1080p photo on a high resolution monitor.
Acer EyeProtect aides prolonged use Acer EyeProtect incorporates several features that take into consideration prolonged usage by heavy users such as programmers, writers, and graphic designers to reduce eye strain. It includes flicker-less technology that eliminates screen flicker for comfortable viewing through a stable supply of power: the ComfyView display reduces reflection from light sources on the non-glare panel: and low-dimming technology enables brightness settings down to 15 percent in darker environments to reduce eye fatigue, while working in non-optimal lighting conditions.
