Acer ProDesigner PE160WUT review: A high-res, high-refresh OLED portable monitor let down by its anti-glare display
The Acer ProDesigner PE160WUT is a portable monitor featuring a high-resolution 2.8K OLED display and a 120 Hz refresh rate. However, its performance is somewhat hindered by a coarse anti-glare coating and the lack of a built-in battery. Overall, it offers a compelling external monitor solution for users seeking high-quality display options.
- ▪The monitor has a 16-inch OLED panel with a native resolution of 2.8K.
- ▪It features a 120 Hz refresh rate and touchscreen functionality.
- ▪The device connects primarily via USB-C and has HDMI fallback connectivity.
- ▪It does not have a built-in battery and draws power from the connected laptop.
