Product Overview

Acer XZ396QU Pwmiipphx is a premium 39-inch QHD curved monitor in Acer's 2021 lineup. It is powered by a basic 8-bit VA panel with 170Hz max refresh rate.
Notably, this monitor supports HDR up to DisplayHDR 400. Its 3000R curvature provides a more immersive visual experience. The included stand comes with tilt, swivel, and height adjustments that make for a more ergonomic viewing experience. Additionally, this monitor can get quite contrasty. It also comes with build-in speakers that make media consumption in a pinch an effortless experience.
In terms of drawbacks, this monitor has very low pixel density. Further, the 8-bit panel is rather limiting in terms of color reproduction.
