The picture isn't as sharp as the display I looked at. When set as dual screen with my other monitor, there is a noticeable difference in picture quality.

My worst experience ever! Can't really give a review on the product since it was doa, so I will review my experience. Product was destroyed upon arrival. The packaging was the worst I'd ever seen. There was nothing protecting the monitor on the top. The monitor was for my father and kept it in the box until he came to pick it up a couple of weeks after arrival. When I opened the box for him, I noticed that the top of the monitor had nothing around it to keep it protected during shipping. When I pulled it out, the entire to if the screen wss cracked from side to side. After apologizing to my father, I contacted best buy. The only response I got from them was, Sorry......It's been 15 days after you purchased this and we can't help you. Not even an attempt to work with me on the situation. Wish I could give a better review, but that's all I have to review. I hope the next person has better luck. Don't forget to open your package as soon as you get it! Hopefully yours won't be broken

This guy takes up a large amount of desk space so getting a arm for it would be a good idea since you cant not adjust the stand for height, only angle. Since its only HDMI input with no speakers it will trick your PC into thinking it has them sadly any device with HDMI inputs and no speakers will do that. Controlling the menus is easy with the joystick to navigate the menus. For the price its a good buy I wouldn't pay the non-sale price though.

The monitor is pretty good but the Bestbuy services are terrible. I paid it online with my parents' card and selected me to pick it up. However, after I gave my ID to the server, they asked me to show my parents' credit card, otherwise, they cannot give the monitor to me even if I already purchase it and selected me to pick it up. The manager told me that it is the POLICY that I have to show him the card which bought that monitor. But the funniest thing is after I changed the pickup person to my friend, she gets that monitor immediately without showing any credit card but just her ID. I asked that manager again and he just told me he had no idea! WHAT A JOKE AND WHAT A TERRIBLE SERVICE! L ! M ! A ! O !

Great monitor for multitasking, watching movies (in 21:9), and gaming for league, Skyrim, fallout 4, GTA 5, etc.
Pros:
Nice size for average desk size with PC next to it
Vesa mount compatible
75 Hz refresh rate
Audio out works well
Cons:
Not everything supports 21:9
No speaker
Price I got it during black Friday was a big plus. (Almost half off)

Great monitor for what it is. Ultrawide at this resolution is perfect for putting two windows side by side while still being able to have a single display for media, casual gaming, etc. It's not the fanciest monitor around these days but has been rock solid for several years. Color is great, brightness is decent (usable but not great in a bright room).

First monitor I've ever bought

I was kind of hesitant in buying the screen since I was bulimd a gaming PC on a budget. Spent days looking at reviews on wide screen monitors and had my eye on this monitor for a while. Ended up pulling the trigger and got it. I was not disappointed. The screen is huge and the colors amd images are so crisp it that t blew me away. I did not regret this purchase. Although just to point this out the screen doesn't have a refresh rate of 75hz it's 60 in native. Getting a 75 he refrsh raw is the main reason I got the monitor although it's not still a good monitor for the money. Also price match it with online competitors this monitor was for 240 on new egg

After reading the reviews here and checking this monitor out in the store, I decided to pick one up. I've been extremely happy with it. I encountered no issues with light bleed or stuck pixels, and it's plenty fast enough for gaming.
Pros:
.....Ultra wide 2560x1440 is video card friendly
.....Extremely bright OOB
.....No blurring or lag
.....Small footprint
.....Excellent cost-performance ratio (has been on sale for > half off)
Cons:
.....Stand is small and short, with no height adjustment at all
.....Wobbles a little due to plastic used in stand

Huge Upgrade for Me

This screen is awesome! I upgraded to this from using a 20" screen that was over 7 years old I have been meaning to upgrade;I just haven't gone through with it.
I love the size of this screen, I do a lot of multi-tasking work, and having that wide enough screen makes it possible so I can have multiple programs or spreadsheets side by side.
I would recommend this to any multi-tasker, or gamer...or really anyone! The images on the screen looks clean and sharp.

Bought this for my home office b/c i don't have the desk space for 2 flat screens. While the set up instructions are non existent, i got it set up and it's working fine. I only use it for work, so i have no idea what games are like on it, but the picture is good, and I like the fact that you set up the split in several different ways, and then adjust the panes. Works great for what I do.
