Checks all, if notmost, boxes
Okay so ive been through around 5-6 monitors in the span of like 2 months and i couldnt seem to stick with one that i liked. One just felt too slow, another felt too bulky, etc. nothing ticked the boxes or filled that gap. Some were 450, some were 1200. Point is i have seen alot of monitors from one end to another, and boy does one check a lot of the boxes. First of all its 4k and has 144hz which compared to 165hz isnt the craziest of differences. If youre a console gamer, dont even worry about it since most games run at 60hz and 120 at most. Pc gaming wise its still smooth and playing games like battlefield and cod still look as good if not the same as 165hz. Im not the craziest or most skillful gamer but in terms of fun the monitor does amazing. The curved screen has nice curve, with good vewing angles, that doesnt feel overwhelming and actually immerses you. The colors are amazing! Very vivid and rich when you tweak the settings. Straight out of the box Ive been using the “fast” response time as well as HDR and theres no ghosting or horrendoussly over sharpening on things, like grass on fifa, unlike most other monitors. For the money i absolutely love it and is defenitely staying as my keeper. The only thing id consider as a flaw would be the stand. Only thing you can do with that is pivot the angle upwards or down. Cant move the screen horizontally or vertically. Honestly you can buy another stand for that if you REALLY need it. But the stand that comes with is just fine.

Great Monitor for Series X
I've been looking at monitors for months and I am really happy I settled on this monitor. The price was the ultimate tipping point. It was plug and play for my xbox series x. I was able to choose 4k 120Hz with no issues. It does come with a 2.1 HDMI cable. Once you dive into the settings on your monitor, machine, and game, you can get it to look as good as you want. I was impressed with the colors and clarity. I didn't notice a difference in response time with a VA panel vs. my previous IPS 27" panel monitor if you were wondering. 31.5" allowed me to change my FOV to 120 with less visual recoil. Enough talking... Just buy it and step your game up!

Great monitor
Great monitor. I've had it now for a year and haven't had any issues. The size in the specification is all wrong though. It's actually 24 in wide and not 37. Just a tad under 32 in diagonal. I wish it had a speaker since my computer speaker is really bad.
