Acer G7 Series monitors give you the outstanding visuals you want and the value you need. With a Zero Frame design and multiple color options, these stylish monitors fit perfectly in your home or office. Visuals are sharp and vivid on G7 Series monitors, thanks to Full HD resolution and IPS[1] technology.

Slim and elegant

The futuristic style of the G7 Series incorporates a slim Zero Frame design that saves space on your desk and lets you place multiple G7 monitors side by side to build a seamless big-screen display. You can pick the color that fits your style and you can tilt the display from -5 to 15 degrees, for comfortable viewing.

Expansive views

Images on the G7 Series come to life thanks to IPS technology[1, 2], which helps to deliver crisper whites and stronger colors, even when viewed from wide angles. The G247HL model also features VA panel technology, which helps to deliver images with deeper black levels.

Eye protection

These monitors help to reduce eye strain with Blue Light Filter, Flicker-less, and anti-glare technologies[1]. Blue Light Filter lets you choose how much harmful blue light your monitor should filter out, while Flicker-less technology reduces screen flickering, which is a major cause of eye strain for people who use monitors for long periods.

Green perspective

G7 Series monitors are RoHS compliant and mercury free. Plus, advanced Acer EcoDisplay technologies and white LED backlighting save power to cut your costs and conserve the planet's resources. Acer also uses recyclable packaging, further reducing ecological impact.
