Absolutely perfect monitor - Amazing Upgrade!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Background
I want to start by saying that this monitor is amazing in every way. Before upgrading, I used an LG monitor purchased in 2021 and a HyperX monitor purchased last year. There was nothing wrong with those monitors, but I desperately needed an upgrade. After much research, I decided on this model.
I want to start by saying that this monitor is amazing in every way. Before upgrading, I used an LG monitor purchased in 2021 and a HyperX monitor purchased last year. There was nothing wrong with those monitors, but I desperately needed an upgrade. After much research, I decided on this model.
Before I begin, it's important to note my intended use. I primarily use it for gaming and personal work. For gaming (Red Dead Redemption and Call of Duty), I need a responsive monitor. For personal use (working from home), I need a monitor that displays video and Power BI dashboards smoothly.
The Monitor — Display — Glare/Overall Color
When I say this monitor is incredible, you have no idea. My desk is by a window, so during the day, there's a lot of glare on my original monitors, and it makes it hard to work. However, with this monitor, I have zero issues. There's no glare, and the colors and blacks are richer on this monitor. It's important for me to have rich colors with Power BI because many of my clients have similar monitors to this one. On my old monitor, if the colors looked great, they probably looked okay on a client's monitor, but now I don't have that issue.
Monitor Display - Performance
When I was researching monitors, this was the biggest deciding factor. The first game I decided to boot up was Red Dead Redemption. In my photos, you can see the clear comparison in the display alone. It looks much better than my previous model. Performance-wise, zero issues; no lag or buffering issues. The real test was playing Call of Duty. I usually get this weird line on my old monitor when I boot this up, but I didn't have any issues with this one. The response time was very fluid. I increased the resolution to really push the boundaries, but this monitor didn't falter. Absolutely incredible.
The Monitor - Design
When you think of a monitor, you probably think of something slightly thick, large, and with a stand. At least that's what most monitors are like. Not this one. This one has a sleek, slim, modern design with a light-up color ring behind it. I'm a sucker for LED lights, so when I saw the lights in the back, I was delighted. It's not necessary, but a nice surprise. The stand is also slim and flat, which is nice because I can put office supplies there without any problem. The ports are also located in a very accessible spot, which was a problem I had with my LG monitor. With my LG monitor, I always had to flip it upside down to connect anything, which was a pain. But not with this one. It took about 5 minutes to set everything up.
Conclusion
Overall, this monitor is a great choice for anyone looking to upgrade. From the design to performance, nothing is lacking. Do yourself a favor and go check it out.

Incredible monitor
on May 20, 2025
Posted by: HugeTaco
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use this monitor for gaming and streaming movies/shows. The picture quality on it is wonderful. The colors are very dynamic and the backlight on the monitor adds for a more dynamic/diverse experience. I like to use the backlight in sync with the picture on screen. Adjusting the monitor's height or tilts is very simple. This is a wonderful monitor and i highly recommend it.

You want to buy this monitor
on May 21, 2025
Posted by: KingGrimace
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is hands down the best monitor I have ever had the joy to use for gaming. Between the refresh rate and how crisp the picture is, it is extremely easy to get beyond immersed in whatever task you have set for yourself for the day. Now my only problem is I need a new video card and to buy several more of these monitors for a very intense immersion experience.
