Acer is now offering its H6 Series of LED-backlit monitors. These new monitors feature zero frame construction and come in two sizes: 21.5-inch (H226HQL) and 23-inch (H236HL). Both of the new models are full 1080p HD IPS panels that support viewing angles up to 178 degrees. The monitors can tilt from -5 to 15-degrees.

Thanks to the zero frame construction found on these monitors, they are ideal for use in multi-monitor setups and video walls. The frame around these monitors measures 0.08-inches. The stand of the monitor features a magnetic surface for posting notes or storing paperclips.

The H6 Series features a 100,000,000:1 contrast ratio and a 5ms response time. Acer's eColor Management tool helps users configure the monitors for best performance. You'll find built-in speakers as well as HDMI, DVI, and VGA connectivity on the monitors.

The 21.5-inch Acer H226HQL display is available for $149.99 and the 23-inch Acer H236HL display costs $179.99. The monitors come with a three-year warranty.
