Setup with instructions It plugs in and works right away, but it is big and heavy, and it has many control options and viewing modes. A family member can set it up with the instructions in about half an hour. Finding the right magnification and contrast settings takes some trial and error. That is why it fits guided setup rather than self-serve.

What it is

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · October 1, 2026

The Acuity is a desktop video magnifier with a 22-inch full HD screen. It enlarges books, handwriting, and hobby work so you can see them in sharp detail. You can adjust magnification with a tactile remote, a touchpad, or the touchscreen, and switch between 20 high-contrast color modes and 2 photo modes. Its built-in LED lighting is designed to avoid glare and shadows on whatever you're viewing. It weighs about 35 pounds, so plan on picking a permanent spot for it.

What setup looks like

  • Out of the box
    1. Place the magnifier on a sturdy desk or table where you plan to keep it, since it is large and heavy.
    2. Plug it in and turn it on. Basic magnification works right away.
  • With a guide
    1. Set the screen to a comfortable height and angle, and try the remote, touchpad, and touchscreen to see which control you like best.
    2. Try the 20 high-contrast modes and the photo modes with your own reading material, and note the settings that are easiest on your eyes. Plan on about 30 minutes.
