Acer H6 Series 23" H236HL BID IPS LED HD Monitor: Your TV shows and movies look great on this crisp screen. Easily read all of your e-mail, browse websites, and Facebook. Use it as a second monitor when you need to get work done quickly. Plus, a magnetic base helps you keep your desk space tidy.
Bought monitor at beginning of March, liked it a lot until today, when it suddenly dimmed, especially in the lower corners. After I left it off about 15 minutes, it returned to normal for a while, then same thing happened after about an hour. Left it off several hours, worked a while, then same thing. Geek Squad suggested it might be backlight going bad and that I should contact Acer ASAP. Did that and learned that I need to ship it to them in Texas, at my expense, preferably via UPS or Fedex, with 3-5" bubblewrap padding, then wait 7-10 days for repair. Tried to get some troubleshooting on their site to avoid this if something else is wrong, but they'd charge $28. I'm not at all happy with this, since sending it for repair -- under warranty! -- will cost about a quarter of the price of a new monitor. Will get it fixed, but won't buy Acer again with this kind of warranty policy.
