    Acer P195HQ: 18.5-inch LCD Monitor

    Good option for those on a budget

    Produces bright and vivid colors, good design, sturdy build, good pricing

    Menu buttons aren't easy to use, glossy screen is not for everyone

Design and Construction







The bezel is quite slim and is glossy black with an extra large power button at the bottom.  The screen, like I said, is glossy, reflective and will attract dust and finger prints. However, it's a personal choice, as some people prefer a vivid picture that glossy screens provide.






 


The rear is pretty bland with just the Acer logo and the four holes for VESA mount. A good thing is that it has a matte finish and not gloss.






 


The stand features a nice honeycombed design that adds some visual appeal to monitor. You can only tilt it forward and backward, as there is no other adjustment available.






The OSD buttons are just too small to use comfortably, and if that wasn't enough, it's placed at the bottom making it worse. It's neatly hidden but not at the cost of ergonomics. Ideally I would have liked them placed at the side.

good review! However, I have one suggestion. If you people could add at the end of any review a page for competition check, then it will be easier for a reader to make a choice for the product being reviewed. what do u say?
