5.0 out of 5 stars First "Netbook" That Can Rival a Macbook Air, July 4, 2012
By 
MWebb (Berkeley, CA) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Acer Aspire One AO756-2808 11.6-Inch Netbook (Ash Black) (Personal Computers)
Please note that the Acer list price for this model is $379.

Update note 7-19-12: if only one of your two memory slots is populated,the cheapest memory upgrade is to buy a single matching stick to the other, vacant slot. This will boost your video score under the WEI (Windows Experience Index from 4.7 to 4.9. If you add 2 new modules using faster PC3-12800 RAM your WEI for RAM speed will jump from 5.9 to 7.4. The motherboard is quite good, see the comments below this review. Do not mismatch RAM module speeds or sizes! No additional boost to video score.

+ Better than average display quality - can view the entire screen out to the corners without "darkening;" videos have a "vibrancy" lacking in most 10.1" netbooks. Macbook Airs remain the "gold-standard" however.
+ Nice keyboard feel - nicely spaced, almost full-sized keyboard with "island" style keys with good space between the keys. The keys themselves are about 93% of IBM Selectric typewriter sizing... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars would be great but speakers are horrible, July 8, 2012
By 
James Witherspoon (Austin, TX USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Acer Aspire One AO756-2808 11.6-Inch Netbook (Ash Black) (Personal Computers)
I bought the Celeron B877 / 2G / 320G version today, and I initially decided to return it. It is super except for one thing that is close to a deal killer for me - the speakers are terrible. The sound is much worse than the sound on my old Gateway LT2114U 10.1" netbook. The sound is very weak even when the volume is turned all the way up, and it is tinny. I tried doing a webcam chat and I have difficulty understanding what the other person is saying. Of course things are fine if you use earphones. I should not have to do this - particularly when the sound is fine on my old netbook! And I know that good audio quality is possible on such a thin device, because I have great quality on my tablet.

The problem is .. I don't see anything comparable (11-12 inches, Celeron B877-level performance) from anyone else for anywhere near the same price. You can pay considerably more to get an 11.6 netbook with lower (Atom N2700 or AMD E-450 or similar) performance. That doesn't... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars A nearly-perfect 11.6" netbook: 4.5 stars, August 13, 2012
By 
Q (Tulsa, OK) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Acer Aspire One AO756-2808 11.6-Inch Netbook (Ash Black) (Personal Computers)
I've used this 11.6" netbook since July 25th. Here are my impressions to add to others' reviews on the Acer AO756. I own the 4GB/500GB HDD AO756-2808 model:

WEI SCORE: (5 stars out of 5)
Default out of the box was:
CPU-4.7, RAM-5.9, GPU-4.5, Game-4.5, HDD-5.9
Reran it to get:
CPU-4.7, RAM-5.9, GPU-4.5, Game-4.7, HDD-5.9

Not sure why, but the gaming score upped itself when I reran the WEI test, so if your score is lower, run the test again.

DESIGN: (6 stars out of 5)
In this day of thin netbooks being nearly impossible to upgrade nor easy to gain access to the HDD or wireless card, the 756 shines like a beacon for the others. The bottom plate is easily removed by taking off one screw and sliding the bottom plate toward you. Underneath has *very* easy access to the HDD, 2 RAM slots (one filled) and the wireless card. For this, you rock for me, Acer!

The weight is only 2 lbs 15 oz. *Very* light and thin for a $300... Read more

What is an IPS Panel?
IPS (in-plane switching) technology is the highest performance panel technology available in the LCD displays. The specifications and details of IPS panel technology are considered best for high accuracy in color, contrast and wide viewing angles. IPS panels offer excellent picture reproduction and suitable for photography, graphics design, movie production, CAD/CAM engineering, medical and security applications. Illustrations below represent how an image on your screen will look even at extreme viewing angles of up to 178°. With IPS panels, you will not have any color shifts or changes in the contrast ratio when you move the image across the screen or change your viewing angle.

Wide viewing angles


What is a LED monitor?
The term "LED monitor" generally refers to a monitor with a LCD panel and a LED backlight. A typical LCD monitor uses cold cathode fluorescent lamps (CCFL) as a light source to illuminate the LCD panel. In an LED backlit monitor, white LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) are used as the light source. LED backlights provide the following benefits:

  • About 50% less power consumption compared to traditional CCFL monitor
  • 20,000,000:1 MEGA Contrast Ratio
  • Mercury-free backlight
  • Low EMI (Electro Magnetic Interference)
  • Slimmer design
  • Weight reduction
  Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp LED: Light Emitting Diode

Designed with professionals in mind
From 23” widescreen IPS panel to 1920x1080 resolution, from 90° pivot to height adjust function, from dual video input to 4-port USB hub, from eco-mode to VESA mounts, the VP2365-LED is designed with one thing in mind: to serve the needs of professional users and consumers.

Some of the applications where the VP2365-LED can be a perfect solution:

  • Photography
  • Graphics design
  • Movie production
  • CAD/CAM engineering
  • Medical imaging
  • Security monitoring (X-ray devices)

Eco-mode for up to 40% energy savings

ViewSonic’s proprietary Eco-mode function comes standard with the VP2365-LED. When you don’t need all of the powerful features VP2365-LED has to offer, you have the option to reduce the monitor’s brightness, save energy, save the planet and prolong the lamp life. You can select one of the “Optimize” or “Conserve” options and save up to 40% energy. Especially under low ambient light conditions, adjusting the brightness will improve visibility by reducing eye fatigue. Reducing brightness will also prolong the monitor’s lamp life, improving your return on investment.

Efficiency and comfort
Ergonomics is defined as profession of designing tools and work environments to best accommodate human performance and behavior. The VP2365-LED is one of the great examples of an ergonomically designed tool. Based on your height, chair and desk conditions, you can adjust it up and down for 5.3 inches, swivel it 360°, or tilt it 20° degrees, whatever makes you more comfortable.

Also, when designing a portrait mode image or a document (such as a flyer or a magazine page), you can rotate the monitor 90° and utilize your 23” screen size at its full extent. You can also adjust your graphics card settings so that all your graphics are rotated 90° as well.


Full HD Resolution
VP2365-LED features a 23” widescreen with 1920x1080 resolution that is capable of displaying a native Full HD 1080p image. In today’s world, Full HD capable devices are getting more and more common which in return increases the demand for 1080p content. In order for graphic designers and movie producers to work more efficiently on 1080p content, a display that natively supports this resolution becomes essential.

ViewSonic VP2365-LED’s 23” panel offers another new trend in the LCD panel market - 16:9 aspect ratio. This new aspect ratio not only natively supports Full HD 1080p content but also in a “non-distorted” way. For example, a 1920x1200 resolution monitor will also support Full HD 1080p but it will either stretch it to fit into a full screen or show blank side bars to avoid distortion. With a 16:9 aspect ratio panel, you will get the most out of your HD content since HD contents are natively designed in this format.


VESA mount and multi-monitor setup
Designing a professional grade monitor is not easy. We need to understand the needs of our professional users as well as their most common usage patterns. For those who plan to install VP2365-LED on a monitor stand for multi monitor setups or wall mount it, we included a 100mm x 100mm VESA mount holes in the back. You can detach the base easily by unscrewing four screws and then mount the display on its new stand or wall mount.

Another critical element for multi monitor setups is the bezel design. We made sure that VP2365-LED features a thin bezel so that when you tile two, three, four or more monitors together, you have minimum lost space between them.

Dual monitor setup


Peace of mind with one of the best pixel performance guarantee and 3 year limited warranty
One of the aspects that make ViewSonic a market leader in displays is its commitment to quality. LCD panels are produced in factories and as everything else, they may have flaws too. One of the flaws of an LCD panel is a dead pixel, bright or a dark one. Some panels will have no dead pixels while some will have one or two or more. When LCD display manufacturers build their monitors, they will have the option to use different grade panels with different tolerance levels for the number of dead pixels. ViewSonic is committed to use the highest grade panels and offer one of the best pixel performance policy in the market. We also back our displays with a 3-year limited warranty for your peace of mind.


Diverse connectivity
The VP2365-LED features a DVI-D digital and a VGA analog input. You can connect two sources at the same time and then toggle between the two by selecting the input source through the On-Screen-Display (OSD). You can also connect one of your computer’s USB ports to the monitor’s USB uplink input which then multiplies the USB ports to four. This way, you can connect up to four USB devices to your monitor and save yourself from the hassle of reaching out to your computer’s USB ports.


Save cash and save the planet
With its mercury free backlight and low energy consumption, the Energy Star 5.0 certified VA2448m-LED saves your electricity bill. The savings of LED can add up to thousands of dollars saved for large install bases, such as big corporate buildings or schools. The savings can be as dramatic as $20,000 in five years!

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect and a bargain, December 16, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Viewsonic VP2365-LED 23-Inch Wide e-IPS LED Monitor (Black) (Personal Computers)
I'm a Prime customer, and needed a replacement right away, so I got the monitor overnight for just 3.99 extra. The monitor arrived in perfect shape, and upon turning it on, there were no dead pixels at all -- First A+. The unit was very easy to calibrate using Spyder 3 Express, although the colors were pretty close right out of the box -- Second A+. IPS panels are wonderful, and I could never go back to the cheap panels where you have to be within 3 or 4 inches of a certain seating position to see a full screen image without dimming or color change. Now I can slump back in my chair and relax, and the screen image doesn't change -- Third A+. I use the monitor for Photoshop CS5 work, along with Qimage Ultimate, the great printing software that becomes indispensable along with a fine monitor such as this. I can get an image just right, then print with Qimage Ultimate managing the colors, and I already know exactly how the print will look. A calibrated monitor like this one is... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars IPS monitor for a reasonable price, March 13, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Viewsonic VP2365-LED 23-Inch Wide e-IPS LED Monitor (Black) (Personal Computers)
There are a fair number of IPS monitors, most cost several times what this does. After you get by all the different versions, how many bits it uses, the real question is how accurate it is.
I happen to profile my monitors with a spectrophotometer, and am amazed just how good this monitor is. Compared to the latest high end apple monitor, this unit is .3 delta E better (several retestings just to make sure). Both are excellent, but every calibration is slightly better with the this model...pretty amazing when you consider the price difference.

All the IPS monitors, by the way, have difficulty with one color of soft blue..this one is no exception. But it is no worse than any other I have tested.

There is a small amount of edge bleed, and I would guess the apple has better overall uniformity, but considering the cost, it is one very nice monitor.

4.0 out of 5 stars Worth Every Penny - Practically Perfect, November 6, 2011
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Viewsonic VP2365-LED 23-Inch Wide e-IPS LED Monitor (Black) (Personal Computers)
Why spend $300 for a 24" monitor when there are other 24" monitors available for half the cost? Because this monitor uses IPS (In-Plane Switching), which means you can view it from any angle (horizontal or vertical) with no noticeable distortion in color or picture. LCD monitors have always annoyed me with the color shifting/distortion that occurs because you're not looking at it straight on. Thankfully, this monitor is free from that annoyance. It also has a 5ms response time, which means little to no motion blur. The only drawback to this monitor is that the blacks are not true blacks, but it is only noticeable in scenes with large amounts of black. It was enough to cost one star in my rating. However, those first two features were more important to me than having true black. Hence, I am very pleased with this monitor, and would still purchase it if I had to make the decision over again.
