It has most of what I needed in a monitor. The only downsides are that it does not have speakers and the glare is pretty bad in a well lit room. Would still buy again with how clear the picture is and how well games look and function. Totally recommend.

Got this and the msi 40inch and chose this one instead. The curve on it seems more noticeable compare to my oled g8 even though both got same curvature. Does have a bit of screen flickering but this is just used as a 2nd monitor and downloading the driver for it solved the screen flicker issues for me

I love this monitor. The only downside to it is the stand that comes with it because it’s flimsy and bad quality. If your getting this monitor I would for sure get an arm for it

If you ever wanted, and were wondering which curved monitor to get, this is the one. It's perfect for my home office setup. I'm not a gamer, but this monitor just might turn me into one because the graphics on this thing are absolutely gorgeous! I highly recommend.

I'm always thrown off by the diagonal measurements for screens. Ended up having to mount my second display to make room! Picture quality is great, and HDR is very noticable.

Quality of picture was good. Good colors and played fair with an Nvidia RTX 4070S using VRR. Overall decent monitor and easy to use menu. However, this monitor seems to be plagued by a flickering issue that is only resolved by using Displayport 1.2 or HDMI, which is not ideal for a monitor marketed as this one is. Not worth the discounted price IMO, and definitely not worth the full price.

Rather simply to set up. I use it for work, easy to split the screen, Several videos online to show how. But the picture is nice and I really like using a curved screen.

Bought this for its curvature (1000R). It's not used for playing fast motion games but for work, so I can't speak for that. The scrolling text (spreadsheet, browsers) are visibly smoother than a 60Hz monitor. Text are also sharp and color is good.
I used a wall mount for the monitor, as I wanted to have clearance under not taking up by the included stand.
Ran into an issue of monitor couldn't power / resume after going into sleep (removed laptop). Took many tries over couple of hours, but end it up able to get display showing after unplugging for more than couple of minutes and click the "joystick" twice. Manual said only click once.
