I feel like I got my money's worth.
I got this monitor on sale (roughly 50% off - at $189.99 before tax) and I feel like I got enough value to have paid for this full price. I got this to replace an old Samsung 32" monitor, mainly for the smaller size and increase in pixel density, and the HDR was a nice add-on. As expected, the increase in pixel density, as well as a slight bump from the Samsung's 144Hz to 180Hz, makes it look so much sharper and higher detail. The HDR has also consistently impressed me as well, in spite of Windows 11's janky interaction with HDR. Games such as Cyberpunk 2077, Darktide, Forza Horizon 5 and Stray have never looked better coming out of my computer. I paid $189.99 before tax and fees for this monitor, and I feel like I would still be just as satisfied if I had paid the full $389.99 price. Bonus: this monitor also has speakers built in, unlike my old one, so now I can dock my Switch at my desk and not have to use headphones! (Sorry for the bad photo - cropped down an existing one I had)

Insane value
A no-brainer upgrade from my previous 1080p 60hz monitor. It has an option to display a crosshair manually, which was neat. Right out of the box, it looks great. It came with displayport and HDMI cables too! No photo of the display would do it justice- it's great. If you're playing 1080p at 60 frames and happy with your gaming experience like I was, just treat yourself. You'll be really happy you did, assuming your PC has some performance headroom to get the full output. I bought a second one once I set this one up.
