Amazon.com Product Description
Add more screen real estate to your computer's desktop with the 22-inch Acer AL2216Wbd LCD monitor, which features an elegantly sophisticated, stylish black casing. But more than just a monitor for your desktop or laptop PC, the AL2216Wbd is also an excellent choice for gamers with its blazing fast 5ms (millisecond) response time. It also offers a high level of brightness with a 300 cd/m2 rating and a 700:1 contrast ratio. Other features include a 1680 x 1050-pixel resolution, dual DVI and VGA inputs, VESA compatibility for wall mounting, and user friendly controls on the front. The monitor's 5ms response time is essential for hard-core gamers, and it's also great for watching high-intensity action movies with fast movement. It offers a high level of brightness with a 300 cd/m2 (candela per square meter) rating and a 700:1 contrast ratio. (The higher the contrast ratio, the greater a monitor's ability to display subtle color details and not get washed out by ambient room light.) The screen also has a 170-degree horizontal and 160-degree vertical viewing angle. The AL2216Wbd has a 22-inch screen (measured diagonally) that is framed by a thin, black bezel. The screen housing measures 20.2 inches wide by 16 inches tall. It sits upon a flat stand that measures 7.8 inches deep. Get just the right view with forward and backward tilting. The spare back includes just a power connector and the two video inputs: analog VGA and digital DVI with HDCP, which enables you to hook this monitor up to a cable or satellite set-top box for watching your favorite TV programs. It also supports Kensington locks for added security. What's in the Box

- HDCP -- High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) is a form of copy protection technology designed to prevent transmission of non-encrypted high-definition content as it travels across DVI or HDMI digital connections.
- Response Time -- The amount of time it takes for a liquid crystal cell to from active (black) to inactive (white) and back against to active (black). It's measured in milliseconds (ms), and the lower the number the faster the response time--translating to a smoother picture with fewer pixilated or ghosted artifacts.

 Unbelievable value! September 26, 2006

A 22" widescreen LCD monitor in the $300 - $350 range. Unbelieveable - you might skeptically think. Think again - this one is a great product at a great price. Mine was perfect right out of the box - no dead pixels, fast as lightning (5ms), took me more time to unpack the box then to set up the monitor. Takes almost no desk space at all - and comes with a 3 year warranty! This is most definitely one of the best deals I've found on anything anywhere. With a native resolution of 1680 x 1050, the picture, via a DVI connection is crystal clear and just plain beautiful!

I've been using a 12 inch laptop for school and it was fine for taking notes. When it came time to doing more intensive work, sitting behind the screen for 8-12 hours with documents overlapping was killing my eyes and driving me crazy. So I went out and picked up this monitor. It's like night and day. I can have two VERY large windows side by side for sifting through and combining information. Plus, I still have the laptop's screen as real estate.
There is a little bit of light leakage on the edges of the screen, but it's only slightly noticeable with a completely black background. My other gripe is that it cannot rotate, but when I have some time I'll see if there isn't an after-market solution I can utilize.
Altogether I'm very happy with the purchae.
-Viewing angle is good.
-Colors are bright.
-The option to set the focus is nice.
-The automatic adjustment works like a charm.
-22" of space is very useful.
-The price is right.
-No dead pixels that I can see.

I bought this monitor to be paired with a computer that I plan to use for AutoCAD and PhotoShop. The images come out great, sharp contrast, vibrant colors, I could not be happier with the picture quality. The wide screen format is nice, but it took a few minutes to get it properly configured with my system. The tilt function does not feel solid, it's like the screen (which is not small) is perched on this plastic pivot, but it seems to work fine, I just hope it doesn't break a year down the road. It does not have any integrated speakers which would be nice, but then who would want a nice big screen with some little speakers that sound like a tin can anyway?
Very happy January 2, 2007

I bought this for my gamer son. He really likes it and is very happy with it. So this isn't my personal review I'm passing along but that of a, uh, user with higher expectations than I could ever have and, likely, higher screen refresh needs than I would have. My son is very happy with this monitor and with his dad for getting it for him.
Great Buy! December 17, 2006

Don't be fooled by its price. This is a solid monitor. Picture quality is superb...very sharp and bright. I purchased two for my daughters to use with Mac Mini. They both work perfectly. I compare them side by side with the 20" Apple studio display and they simply outperform the Apple. I highly recommend the monitor to anyone who is looking for a good LCD monitor at a much more reasonable price!
