    • Bought for wife , she says: I use this monitor while working with Adobe creative suite, very accurate colors and excellent quality monitor
    • very bad faded color.
    • Smooth and the colors are bright, crisp, and amazing
    • the screen looks nice and came with good colors out of the box however I have a rx 480 gpu that only has displayport and hdmi ports, this screen only has the hdmi port which happens to have problemsthe monitor wont stay on if screen output isn't being detectedso for example if your computer falls asleep that means that you need to turn on your monitor every time it goes to sleep and that it won't auto wake up when you start moving your mouse or typingit also will only stay on for 5 seconds and turn back off if it doesn't detect video output during that time which is really annoying when turning on your computer and having to turn on your screen a good 2-3 times before the computer starts sending video outputjust gonna note my first screen lasted fiveish months before the screen started flickering and showing green and static

    • If you love your eyes, don't buy this monitor!You can't find a proper color calibration for these monitors, And you cant find online tools for auto calibration, I tried many different settings, but as you can guess none of them works
