Some models indicate a transparent color around the monitor. Is this one red? It looks that way in the photo.

Hi, I checked this again with a flashlight and it does have a red color when you shine a light on it, but it is hard to see. Sorry to mislead you.

No, it is black around the border. We have not had any problems with the monitor to date.

Yes, a very subtle red tint, visible mainly if you have light colors (or a light) behind it. Samsung calls this their "Touch of Color" feature, and it's quite nice looking; not distracting at all.

Yes it is actually red. I bought one for my son after he passed his Technician Class exam.

Yes it is. A person who knows alot about computers/monitors told me to get it, as I don't know much. He said it was a great monitor. It's actually better than what he said. Wish I bought this monitor a long time ago. Well worth the price and no nonsense, e.g. installing programs, drivers etc. Just plug it in and go.

Colors look different on different monitors. The color I got was o.k., I didn't notice a difference from online.

I didn't get that on this monitor, but I've had it on other Acer monitors before. contact Acer and they should honor it under the first year warranty as a screen panel defect.

We haven't had the red issue but we have had the screen turn colors and the black vertical lines happen. The unit has cheap capacitors in them. If you can solder it is a $5 fix. If you canT and you buy the new board about $120 fix. Very easy fix though. Look it up on Youtube and you can see what I am talking about. Youtube instructions stepped me through it....super easy

AmazonAddict is right, this monitor is a TFT display- I was looking at a different model with my earlier answer. We should all be glad for his tact and ever-so-helpful advice when he spots an error here. :-)

I am sorry I am not sure. We do like the monitor that is with it, it is very clear.

It is the same color. Each computer screen shows colors differently so I can't say it is "exactly".

It's crazy how many different answers people give for all the questions on this monitor. It's glossy on the front, monitor half and a matte black finish on the back half where the output ports are. The base/stand is also a glossy black finish.

I never checked it. Sorry for that and now one of the monitors fell from the head rest and snapped the connection, make sure that they sit well in the head rest, otherwise it is a good product. Thx

I can't answer that - I bought the grey one. But I will say this: when mine arrived it looked exactly as the photo depicted it. Even with computer monitors being a factor. I was really happy with my purchase. Still am. :) I hope that helps somewhat.

I am inclined to think something is wrong. Mine has a nice picture. I did no adjustments on my monitor. I kept the factory setting because the picture was great.

No, that's what i was saying earlier, it's NOTHING like this gorgeous case they show.... still great computer though!The one they sent me is SOLID black on both sides of the case, and the front is nothing like they show either... its just plain black that has slats. but no cool looking lighted up windows or anything.

The photo shows up almost glowing neon red on my monitor. The phone isn't that bright, but it is indeed red.

I would classify the screen as "matte" since there is no reflection off of the screen itself; however, the image on the screen is pretty bright compared to my other monitor--I need to adjust this.

If you mean the screen on the camcorder itself, I do not remember it being reddish. The final video recording and playback quality may still remain unaffected by this though, so you might want to double check.
