An abundance of smart features are also available on the monitors, including wireless projection, simultaneous viewing from different sources via Multiview, and more.

High-definition Resolution for Smooth Frames and Vivid Details

New Acer DA271K and DA321QK LED monitors come with 4K UHD resolution, while the Nitro GA271U P and Nitro GA321QU P are equipped with WQHD resolution and up to a speedy 180 Hz refresh rate to deliver smooth scenes and excellent in-game experiences. Equipped with HDR10, 250 nits brightness, images, and colors are recreated to be more immersive and realistic, while it works with AMD FreeSync and is NVIDIA® G-SYNC® Compatible, helping minimize screen tearing when playing or watching videos. Ultra-low latency also delivers quick response times to help minimize input lag, so fast-paced action and content appear smoothly with no blurring.

Convenience, Productivity and Personalized Features

All four monitors come with features designed to provide greater productivity, versatility, and endless entertainment options. Google TV brings together movies, shows, and more from across apps and subscriptions, and organizes them for users to enjoy access to popular apps such as Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Disney+, HBO Max, and YouTube from one screen. Easily cast movies, shows, photos, and more on phones or tablets directly to the monitors with Google Cast™, while wireless projection and screen mirroring technology in the devices eliminate the need for loads of cables to extend displays. The Bluetooth connection capability further supports the movement to declutter wires and makes it easy to connect these monitors with other devices such as speakers and peripherals. As IoT products, these can also be connected to Wi-Fi networks and seamlessly integrate with the ecosystem of smart devices in their surroundings.

Further adding to their usability, the Acer DA1 and Nitro GA1 smart series monitors are equipped with a Multiview function that splits the screens into various sections. This is useful for those who are always multitasking as users can simultaneously view and interact with content from various sources and control these straight from the displays. Users can attach external webcams for video calling and streaming, allowing live streamers to choose their preferred platform to upload the videos directly through the monitors. Their ergonomically designed stand makes it easy to find the ideal viewing position and can be VESA wall-mounted to free up more desk space in home setups.
