I found this display for a very reasonable price versus other 4K displays, and I am really happy with the picture quality. It's really bright and clear, and has a nice thin frame to the screen. The U-shaped stand is great as it doesn't take too much space away from your desk area. One star taken off for it's annoying auto-selection of the HDMI input. I have my laptop plugged into one input, and a FireTV stick in the other. Whenever the laptop display goes to 'sleep', the monitor automatically switches across to the other input (even though the FireTV is not on either). It's annoying as it means whenever you fire up the laptop again you have to go and manually switch across to the other input - why can't it just stay on the selected input! Other than that a good purchase.
This monitor has exceeded all my expectations. I use it to display large quantities of data on screen at the same time. Having the equivalence of 4 HD monitors in the footprint of one is awesome.
The picture and detail are outstanding. The only reason for four stars is the screen has five bad pixels in a diagonal on the right side. One white, two blue and two red that are visible on a dark background.
This monitor was easy to set up. The resolution,and colors are fantastic.the best monitor I have ever owned.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Excellent 2560x1440 IPS monitor

I use the monitor as a work-from-home workhorse. The color and clarity doesn't cause eye strain. I run mine (along with 2 other monitors) at 2560x1440. This IPS panel is great for off-axis viewing.
Lots of value for the price, including the 4-year warranty. Picture is sharp, colors are vibrant.

Model 276E - RCA audio out jack better bottom side
on December 2, 2019
Posted by: Rumplestiltski
The audio jack is not easily accessed as it is on the back of a non swivel monitor that forces me to move everything to connect / disconnect. Bottom right or left side or even out front would have been far better for headphones. I'm forced to use bluetooth or other device as audio source. Obviously the guy who came up with the audio out jack location doesn't actually use one of these monitors although more highlighting on the RCA audio out jack is needed as some users actually think there are speakers inside this monitor.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

good screen, bad bug with energy saving mode

the monitor has great video quality but a really disturbing "bug" with energy saving: with some type of video souces on HDMI it decides that the source is not present and turns off by itself. And, when it turns off, the user cannot even issue commands via OSD.
I had this issue with a Dell XPS with Windows 10: it was a nightmare every morning to make the monitor detect the source. The PC had no issues with other monitors.
Now I have the issue with a miniPC: when using Proxmox on it the monitor detected the source correctly. Now I have installed ESXi and the monitor activate itself only if I reboot it: with the bios screen the monitor detects the source and turns itself on. Then I can work with esxi too. If I switch the monitor to the DP source (where my desktop PC is connected) and the switch back to the HDMI where ESXi is connected, no way: the monitor turn itself off.
