    I got mines during a Black Friday sale. I've been looking for a monitor to replace my MSI Optic 24" and boy does this tick all the boxes! The movies show in such vivid colors! My games look sharp and immersive! Even looking at websites were different on this one than my MSI. One of the pet peeves I had with my MSI was that it was mainly gaming. It sucked when it came to text and regular use. This one shies thru and thru. Even my wallpaper look stunning! I do agree with others that the price of this monitor is high. HOWEVER! Think on this for a min. It's 240hz. For me, I can use it with my laptop and the GTX kicks in with the gsync. I can use my AMD Ryzen desktop, and the 240hz can support it (thru the proper cables like display port). Other monitors I've seen are way higher than this and they're still 144hz. Only downside I can think of is the stand isn't adjustable. Other than that, this monitor is lit!

    So far I have no complaints. It has great picture quality. I bought it for gaming. I also got it for half the MSRP. Have not started t game yet. I just completed the build and have been watching videos and they look great. I was not sure I'd like the curve, but I do.

    I never had a curved monitor thought that they were a dumb idea. Boy was I wrong. I replaced my Acer predator monitor with this and for the price its great. I can't go back to a standard monitor. This monitor has a very clean quality picture. I am thinking of buying a second one.

    Saw this at Best Buy and the curved display caught my eye. Truthfully, the colors did not look as good as the other nearby displays that were on display; however, I liked the natural colors that I was seeing. It looked small at the store, but when I brought it home, the 27 inch is perfect for my need. I use it for personal browsing as well as for work productivity. Some positives: 1) Out of the box, easy to set up the stand. It was nicely packaged - no worries about in shipment damage here. Easy to attach stand. Despite the difficulty in adjusting the angle, this monitor DOES have the option for angle adjustment. You just need to apply more force to it than usual. I was glad to find this out because out of the box, the display was titled downward and that bothered me. 2) In terms of ports, this has plenty for my need. Two 2.0 HDMI ports and one Display Port. Also an option to plug in your speakers or headphones. 3) The display is great. It has eye care option readily available. It also has several graphics settings to pick from, or you can create a custom one. This is my first curved display and it didn't take long to get used to it. In fact, I think it is a bit easier on the eyes. I do have sensitive eyes. 4) It is smooth for gaming. I played several games from the PS5 and oh boy, it is a huge difference between this and my last monitor. Graphics = beautiful! I don't notice the graphics as much when I use it for productivity, but it is just stunning for what its worth when I am viewing videos or gaming. Potential negatives: 1) This monitor doesn't come with speakers. I had to go out to get a pair of speakers to hook up with it, so keep that in mind when purchasing this monitor if you don't already have speakers at home - you may need to spend extra money on speakers. 2) The mount. It is a curved display, so understandably, it is less intuitive to attach a VESA mount to it. I haven't tried, but by the looks of it, it may not perfectly mount. Although, option is there. 3) I find that switching between different inputs is not as smooth. Sometimes it takes awhile for it to detect whatever it is I am trying to view. Currently, I have the PS5, a MacBook Pro, and a PC laptop hooked up to the ports. Sometimes it takes a bit for the monitor to detect any of these even if they're on and ready to go. This was not the case with my last monitor (and it was a way cheaper monitor too). Conclusion: I will be keeping this monitor since it is a nice display for what I need it for. However, I don't think it is worth the full price. I got this at the original price of $399 simply because I really needed a monitor right away. If you could wait, I would wait for when it goes on sale to get the full value of it. Overall, I am happy with my purchase despite the few negatives. I recommend it. So far, no issues really except for the few hiccups here and there with the input switching.

    This is the screen I have been looking for. I create videos for small businesses and play games. The monitor refresh rate is amazing. The colors are vibrant and transitions are smooth. I can see my mistakes easier on the videos and make adjustments quicker. The games like P5S, BlazBlue, Marvel V. Capcom, and Assassin Creed 3 are just excellent. Great buy.

    A bit of a niche monitor but excellent for competitive gaming where speed and clarity is more important than higher resolutions. Curve is pretty minimal and the colors look pretty accurate. As a note, there's a blinking blue light at the bottom of the monitor when my computer is shut down but the monitor is on. Kind of a nuisance.

    Great monitor. I'm using an AMD 460 and get average 200 fps on 1080. Very smooth and clear and great color. My only complaint is that it doesn't have HDR. For the sale price at 270 i can live without it but i wouldn't pay 400 for it without that feature. HDR is now a must in today's world.

    I am very satisfied with the product. Although, it was lost while in shipping and took 1 and a half months to be sent a new one, it is in very good condition. The features the monitor contains is very useful and aesthetic features. The movement is very smooth while gaming because of the 240Hz.
