Acer outs 27-inch WQHD touch display

Ashiataka

So engadget are reporting that Acer will be releasing a 27 inch touch display for about £675. Sounds good doesn't it? Wait, there's more. It's WQHD. Yes, it's 2560 x 1440. Did I mention it's touch as well?

 

So for not much more than the cheapo, warrenteeless Korean 2560 x 1440 monitor I'm looking at at the moment, you can have a legitimate Acer touch display. I think it's good news that we're finally getting some higher resolution displays at reasonable prices as we move on towards 4k.

Too bad like the Korean monitors there's no VESA and the stand is crap. Maybe I'll pick one up.

 

EDIT: Wait, $1050 USD? I know it's touch and all, but I can get an ASUS non-touch monitor with similar specs for $600.

Looks nice, but the bezel is WAY too big.

I like the color scheme of Noctua fans. Deal with it. Forget about the bad memories of the past.

Forget about the bad memories of the past, take the good ones along with you through the present, and look forwards to the good things that will come in the future.
