What Buyers Say
Acer Office Professional EB321HQ Awi 31.5" White
The Acer EB321HQ Awi monitor is generally well-received for its value, large 32-inch screen, and picture quality, especially for home office and CCTV use. However, some users note a yellow tint, occasional screen blackouts, and limited connectivity with no built-in speakers or audio-out jack. The 1920x1080 resolution is fine for most tasks but may not provide extra screen real estate for multitasking.
Pros

- Large 32-inch screen
- Sharp picture quality
- Easy to set up
- Sturdy steel stand
Cons
- Yellow tint on screen
- Occasional screen blackouts
- No built-in speakers
- No audio-out jack
- Limited connectivity (only HDMI and VGA)
