    Who says 40 inches is too big?

    This monitor is absolutely beautiful and a steal for the price. At first I was very hesitant to buy it because it was a 40 inch monitor and I thought it’d be massive but after 2 to 3 days of using it, I quickly realized that this was the best purchase I’ve made when it came to a monitor the quality of the picture gaming or just using it for every day use is phenomenal and I could not be happier.

    I was nervous getting this online since I was not able to see how it functions before i ordered it, bur it was a great decision! I use this for gaming and it was veen wonderful, good display, crystal clesr imsge. I havent had issues with dead pixels or cheap materials. The stand is higg wuality but if yoy plan to mount it make sure it can support the weight. I have a high quality mount i used for my old 27" curved monitor, it was overkill for that monitor but still wasnt enough to hold this one. I would and have recommended this to others, id argue this is more worth your time and money than the odyssey series.

    Nice image quality, half-baked software and KVM

    I just want to first say that the image quality is very nice and as a monitor, it works well. However, the KVM function is flaky (limited USB), there is only ONE DisplayPort input, and I just confirmed with MSI support that it is not possible to change inputs if the monitor is in standby. Why might that be an issue? Consider this situation: I have my desktop PC connected via DisplayPort (because I want the fastest refresh rate for gaming). I turn that off and the monitor goes into standby. I later decide to plug in my work laptop (fresh Windows install, latest display drivers) into HDMI 1. If the monitor's Auto Scan setting on the source is set to "off", the ONLY ways to wake up the monitor to switch it to HDMI 1 are to either send a signal over DisplayPort (e.g. turn my desktop on) or unplug the power, plug it back in, and quickly open the OSD menu before the monitor goes back into standby. I have never used a monitor that you couldn't manually wake up and change the input. For size reference, the photo is with two 24" 1080p monitors.

    Very affordable 40" 2k 155hz Monitor

    The Mag401qr is a very affordable monitor for those who want a large monitor but dont want to spend almost $1,000 for one. This monitor has a 40" 2k 155hz screen. Even has a Type C with 65w and you can even download the software to manage the settings without having to use the buttons on the back of the monitor.

    Great monitor at a great price. This is about the least expensive wide monitor you can get with all the "bells and whistles" for this price. It has the FreeSync that allows game play, can be set to quick response time with some setting in the menu, lots of color adjustments, and so much more. I have this connected with a USB4/Thunderbolt cable to my laptop and it works perfectly. If you do not want a curved monitor, this is the best deal. My only "gripe" is the stand. With the included stand, the back of the monitor is about about 5 or 6 inches from the furthest back you can place the stand on the desk. Not a huge gripe, but keep that in mind when selecting this. you may want to get a different (VESA compatible) stand so you can move the monitor further away without it falling off the back of the desk.

    Exceeded expectations

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This is just what i needed to fill in the gap of games that dont fully support surround mode gaming. I did do some tweaking to the nvidia settings when hdr was enabled but it has made my games look amazing. I havent tried it with a console yet but my 4080 super works well and i am able to turn on all the eye candy. Currently i am only using it on hdmi because i allready have all the display ports on my card being used. Capped at 100hz is fine though. Ive been playing Returnal and Ratchet and clank rift apart. Both look amazing and play flawlessly. The picture quality is on par with my Acer predator 27 inch displays. I would reccomend this to anyone looking for a 1440p monitor with 144hz or higher expectations in theor games. Text also looks crisp and movies as well. Very satisfied overall.

    Great quality monitor. Nice size, great resolution/display is super crisp and colors accurate. I wish it was curved, but then it would be perfect...gaming one tends to lose the edges when not curved and with such a big size. But so far soo good, happy w/purchase

    Screen is big and it is bright. Quality is good, however, it produced a lot of heat. Screen gets warm after on for 30 minute or so. So I purchased two because after I received the first one I liked so much I ordered the second one. However, screen panel were yellow and dim with all identical settings were applied. So I am keeping one and hate to say but will return the other one soon. Still go ahead and buy because you cannot beat the price and what you get.

    Great monitor that ticked all the boxes I was looking for at a good price. My desk layout is not conducive to a curved monitor, so this fit the bill perfectly! Had no pixel issues out of box. I can't speak to the stand quality, as I only use VESA mounts anyways. Has more features than I take advantage of.

    This monitor is great for computer gaming and video editing. It has worked really well at the stated 1440 p at 144hz. However, mentioned no where in the listing is that through hdmi it isn’t 2k it’s actually 4k at 60hz. Which is absolutely perfect if you have any intention of using a gaming console.

    good monitor for 1440p gaming, possibly the best price point for this spec as well , also being msi rather than a random chinesium brand is not bad either.

    To be honest this monitor is top tier! It’s only missing the OLED so I gotta rate it 9.3! Also missing the height adjustment but that’s definitely not a deal breaker for me at least. This has the massive real estate on the screen and it’s not curved and it’s IPS! Super clean I need to get this monitor back I only returned it to try out that new Samsung oled G8. I prefer this monitor over that! The response time is really nice as well you’re getting so much for a monitor under $500! Don’t hesitate if you have the budget for this monitor! Grab it!!

    Great monitor for the price, size and speed. Extra 4 inches over the standard 34 is a bigger improvement then you would think.

    Very large display, great for gaming, the colors are a bit weird, no speakers but there is a speaker jack, no volume adjustment on the panel. Overall, ignoring the sound, the display is great

    Really good for the price, has free sync. The stand can't swivel which is inconvenience but it's minor compared to the quality for the price
