Pros

The monitors are bright, have good colour accuracy and are very responsive. The settings on the monitor are also great as you can really make the colours pop without having to install graphical mods. For photography and graphics they aren’t all that c...  Read More



Cons

It has very bad motion blur/ghosting, and the adaptive sync flickers a lot. Overdrive and strobe settings do nothing to reduce motion blur. All text is super crispy and pixelated, tried messing around with the settings and nothing works.

Price


But apart from that, this is a solid monitor that is definitely worth the price.

Packaging/appearance


So i bought this product a few months ago and it was great - easy to configure, clear instructions and lots of effort in packaging.


The weird thing is the monitor went black for the pixels halfway across the screen even though the book hit nowhere near there.

Competitiveness


Great colours and had more features than most more expensive ones from the more expensive makes.


But one thing which i consider false advertising, is that this product boasts it's '1ms response time', but after some testing ...  Read More


You can only go up to 144hz on this monitor even though it says its 165h.

    The sound quality is a bit tinny and lacks bass but this is a minor issue in my opinion

    My old monitor was 2k resolution and 144hz but it was the 1st gen of those monitors so after 6 years of heavy use it had been burnt in so badly at the top where my tabs are that it hindered me playing games
