23.8″ Acer CB242Y P6bmiprx – Full Specifications
The Acer CB242Y P6bmiprx is a 23.8-inch IPS monitor built around a fully height-, tilt-, swivel- and pivot-adjustable stand that most budget 1080p monitors skip.
Overview
The Acer CB242Y P6bmiprx is a 23.8-inch IPS monitor built around a fully height-, tilt-, swivel- and pivot-adjustable stand that most budget 1080p monitors skip. It runs Full HD 1920 x 1080 at 48 Hz - 144 Hz though it skips HDR certification. Brightness is rated at 250 cd/m² with a 1500 : 1 static contrast ratio, and the Anti-glare/Matte (3H) coating keeps reflections down. Connectivity is 1 x HDMI 1.4, 1 x DisplayPort 1.2, 1 x D-sub, and the stand offers height, tilt, swivel and pivot adjustment at 5 kg. Buy it if ergonomics and all-day desk comfort matter more to you than raw refresh rate; skip it if you specifically want the highest Hz number on the spec sheet, since faster 144Hz+ alternatives exist at a similar price.
Key Highlights
- Full ergonomic stand with 165 mm of height travel plus pivot and swivel
- 99% sRGB coverage keeps everyday colour reasonably accurate
- Built-in 2 x 2 W speakers mean no external audio setup is required
- 1500 : 1 static contrast ratio for a IPS panel

HDR & Brightness Reality
The CB242Y P6bmiprx does not carry any HDR certification. Its 250 cd/m² typical brightness and 1500 : 1 static contrast sit well below what's needed for a meaningful HDR image, so content will play back in standard dynamic range regardless of what a source device offers. If HDR video is a priority, look elsewhere in this lineup at a model that specifically lists HDR10 support.
