I was going to purchase either the Acer P243WAid or the BenQ 24", but as I was browsing Newegg today I came across this:

Acer P244Wbii
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824009154

Did a search on google and looked around to get some information on it to see what may be different and couldn't find anything. Anyone out there know something about this monitor vs the other Acer 24" model?
 
Acer products are known for being well, priced, but not for their high quality :)
 
Hm, interesting. Guess I don't need to consider that model then..
but I'm still on the fence on what 24" to get
 
BenQ V2400W or BenQ G2400W(D) - there are several threads about them and some of them include discount codes or whatever it is called :)
 
I know I'm reviving the thread but I'll probably will buy this monitor pretty soon. I'm going to use it for gaming/movies/xbox 360. The main thing that is attracting me to it is that I wont even have to use 1:1 pixel mapping for my 360 and therefore it will fill up the whole screen and seem bigger than a standard 24" monitor with pixel mapping. Idk what the other poster said but i've seen quite a bit of acer monitors that look nice and they get good reviews. I can't find any reviews for this really or anything. So I can post back here or make a new thread with my results. This monitor isn't very popular unfortunately.
 
You will have to try and share your experience. Even Acer can make a good monitor. I remember times, when some of BenQ products were not considered being very good, but that's different now.
 
You will need to buy a dvi-hdmi cable along with the monitor. That's pretty much the only negative thing I can say about this deal. Its a great monitor at a great price. You won't find 1080p this cheap with any other monitor.

If you need a monitor for ps3, xbox360, and blu-ray movies this is a good one to get.

Not sure why people are bashing Acer, I've not had a single problem with a product of theirs.
 
im thinking about getting this one. wish there were some reviews for it. i really like the idea of playing @ 1080p and real 16:9 just like my LCD TV, without having black bars on top/bottom or sides.
 
I sorta wanna get this guy too... but I sorta wanna wait and see if anything else comes up :-/
 
I just picked this monitor up at newegg.com for $269.99 Shipped Brand new! It was part of there Black Friday Deals and they sold out in about 6 hours.. Can't wait for it to get here. This will be my first 1080p Capable device and my video cards all came with the nessecary adapters to use the HDMI cable.. newegg.com list it as having a USB cable included instead of a HDMI but on closer examination the product picture's show a HDMI cable.

I'm not wild about newegg's return policy's so i dont usually shop there but this deal was too good to pass up and will go good with my 20" Samsung i purchased a few months ago.
