> 3 dayI was worried I wasnt going to like a curved screen, but got used to this pretty quick. Its clear. Works well. I wish it had a USB port, but I knew it didnt when I bought it.

> 3 dayThe monitor works good for gaming or everyday use. And I enjoy it. But there are zero USB ports and only two HDMI ports and a headphone jack. And the Audio is terrible I can barely hear anything on max volume. Also its advertised as a 144hz monitor but Its really only a 60hz monitor.

Greater than one weekIs this a perfect gaming monitor? By no means... but if you arent expecting the world and are looking for a GOOD budget monitor for gaming that isnt going to break the bank you cant go wrong. If you are worried about longevity get the squaretrade coverage like I did. Definitely has a high-end look and feel, image is very crisp and clear and the monitor is bright as balls. Very minimal bezel around the display and the controls are accessed via a small joystick/button the back of the monitor which I find to work rather well. It includes HDMI, DVI, and Displayport inputs, as well as audio inputs but Im not using the speakers in mine so I cant comment on the quality. I presume they sound about like $200 monitor speakers would sound so probably not very Bose-esque. There is some visible light leak when the display is on a black screen but honestly this isnt really noticeable when playing games, at least not to me anyway so its not something I care about. Also the LCD panel gets a little darker right at the left and ridge edges about 1/8 inch from the bezel but again not hugely noticeable (see 2nd photo) I have yet to find any dead pixels although as per the manual its only guaranteed that 99.95% of the pixels will function which is strange but okay. I did have some issues with the initial setup. I first connected it with displayport and it kept saying there was no input. Rebooted the PC and monitor and same thing so I switched to a DVI cable (not included) and it worked fine. I tried the DP cable again about an hour later and it worked, no issues since. Dont let negative reviews dissuade you. This is not a bad monitor for the money and something like 3-5% of electronics fail out of the box so all the people saying MY monitor didnt work so theyre all junk!!! are just a bit short-sighted. Also shipping carriers like to throw stuff around so that adds to the DOA numbers Im sure.

> 3 dayBought it as a replacement for one I accidentally scratched. Great for the price, the stand is nice. The framing on the bottom of the screen is a bit cheap but thats not an issue at all. Dont forget to go in and manually change your settings from 60Hz to 165Hz. Cant complain, 10/10 factoring in the price. Easy to put together and great quality

> 3 dayPros: - High resolution with HDR support - Colors are nice - 2 DisplayPort inputs - 3 year warranty Cons: - Floppy stand. If your desk moves at all the monitor will wiggle a lot. - Doesnt do that great in the UFO ghosting test - TERRIBLE auto-source functionality. Literally the worst Ive seen on any monitor. Its so slow it freaks out one of my devices. Turn off the auto-source and switch it manually (push down on the control switch to bring up the controls). - HDR support is there but not that great. - Max Brightness is VERY bright and turning on HDR forces max brightness - Speakers are there - cant control volume via your OS over DP but can over HDMI. The monitor does have a volume control, though. I wouldnt recommend them for anything but voice calls though. This is a huge upgrade from a 1080p 60hz screen. If you try a better 1440p screen youll be disappointed in this one, though.

> 3 dayI have really enjoyed putting this setup together and have been planning this 3 monitor array since I started building my computer back in 2016. The monitor addition was the last purchase because I was using other monitors before taking a new job and moving to my home office to work. I would recommend these monitors as mid-range (not cheap, but not gaming) monitors that perform with g-sync and 144 hz. They work well for a surround capable card (in my case, dual G1 Gaming Windforce GTX 970) and run my flight sim (XPlane 11) and games like Shadow of War quite well. All monitors are running via DisplayPort from my GPU. These are curved monitors, but I dont notice the curve when sitting at my desk. Some items to consider if you are buying these monitors: ~ They are not gaming monitors. At best, I would classify these as mid-range, multi-purpose monitors. ~ The 144 hz g-sync was a seller for me, but isnt for everyone ~ The DisplayPort is also accompanied by an HDMI port, but cant run 144 hz on HDMI. ~ The Mounts for these monitors are all right, but multiple-monitors makes my desk super-cluttered, so I got a single 3-mount stand. ~ 2 of these monitors came with the same colour profile on startup, the other was magenta. It took me about a month to get it all the same. ~ Single Button Menu navigation is pretty rough. Overall, these are not deal breakers for me. I like the monitors and now enjoy a great view out of my X-Plane sim.

> 3 dayI didn’t think it was gonna be as nice as it is or work as well as it does but it’s great for gaming and any other activities you may use it for has different modes based of what you’re doing like gaming or movies and even a high graphics mode and can even put a crosshair on your screen for those games that don’t have one
