Wearing Polaroid glasses enhances the experience of viewing and working on your notebook. Acer gives you a pair of 3D glasses with the notebook, and a pair of Dwayne Wayne-esque flip-down shades too These glasses were comfortable for a long period of time and easy on the eyes too While horizontal viewing angles for the 3D screen are pretty wide-about 170 degrees-vertical viewing angles are fairly narrow. This D feature is compatible with most games making this notebook great for game lovers. Another feature of the TriDef which is noteworthy is its ability to turn DVDs into 3D.
