Pros

All-in-all, a perfect bang for the buck. This isn't a top tier monitor but it's still amazing. Beats my $800 benq hands down.

The screen is wow, the brightness is missing a bit though and the hdr well. Facile à monter, sauf pour câbles derrière. Every monitor and tv in my house is samsung.

Curved design adds a touch of immersion to the display.



Cons

The lighting on the monitor in general is terrible. This is not even worthy of reading text on a word document, much less gaming. The picture quality is meh.

The screen makes loud popping sounds and the screen flickers and flashes at random times. Also flickered black every few minutes. Had one replacement unit but still flickers this way.

Monitor is too big and heavy for the stand. Angle tilt hinge is garbage. It was always making electonic buzzing sounds, now it's not responsive. Only the vibration by moving the desk up by a couple of mm.

There is no hdmi to type c cable able to convert 1440p into anything above 60hz, only dpi is able to do that apparently. The ports have no friction to them, and he cables barely hold snugly when plugged in.

And for $300 bucks right now, it can't be beat!


Very good monitor for the price, there is some pretty significant backlight bleeding which has been pointed out in in-depth reviews.

Packaging/appearance


I received this product as a christmas gift and was pleasantly suprised with the performance, my previous monitor was an asus vg258qr.


Don’t pass this one up, it’s everything you’re looking for in 1 package.

    My only complaint is that the 34hdr34 on this monitor is very bad and very inconvenient to try and use other than that it is a perfect budget ultrawide gaming monitor
