Great Monitor

Finally decided to splash the cash to upgrade my monitor during Black Friday, and I'm really glad I did. I've always used a 24 inch screens so this is my first 27-inch screen.
I primarily use it for coding and watching movies, and the larger size definitely makes a difference. Text is easier to read when coding. Colors are vibrant when watching movies and the curved screen make it even more immersive.
I did notice some backlight bleed, especially during scenes with dark backgrounds. It’s noticeable but not a deal-breaker for me.
Overall, I'm very happy with the purchase. Great upgrade and a great experience.
I would recommend this to a friend!

i have been on the fence about switching from 1080p to 1440 for a while now...and let me tell ya...just do it. even this monitor...could just be from switching from acer to msi, but i had a 180hz 1080p acer monitor, which i thought was pretty good tbh...but this is by far better. The whites are friggen white and the blacks are blacker than black, with HDR enabled of course. Especially at 149.99....Its a no brainer, Just do it. Even just staring at my desktop is unreal. Happy New year.

Great Product in very low price

Great product in really good price. The reason I gave it 3 starts and not the 5 starts is that because it didn't include a HDMI cable. They shipped a DisplayPort cable with this wheb none of my laptop has the DP port. I agree that this is a gamming monitor laptop but don't you want people other than the gammers to buy this monitor? Disappointing!

Faulty monitor

The price and ship time were acceptable but the monitor only worked for two boot ups if the computer. The monitor was bought as a companion for the new pc we bought our daughter for Christmas. The second time she played Minecraft the monitor displayed a bunch of weird colors and then stopped working. She was quite upset and thought her new computer had failed. It only took me a few minutes to determine it was just the monitor. I was hopeful it was just the hdmi cable but upon switching to a different cable, I could not get anything to display on the monitor. I have initiated a return.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Solid monitor NBS

I was hesitant because I havent had to upgrade in years but after my other monitor broke, i got this bad boy on a black friday deal, i think it was between $70-$110 off the total price, and let me be the first to tell you, going from 1080p 32 inch, to this 1440p 27 inch, was a trip.. but believe you me, when i got used to it, figured out you could change the UI scale in windows settings so it felt like what i was used to? I cant go back. And let me also be the first to say that this is a pretty quality monitor, picture wise. Forget that its a resolution upgrade from my last monitor, the picture itself looks much nicer, like it pops. Colors are way better here, and of course the better resolution is just the cherry on top :) 10/10 recommend if you can get it on sale.

This is my first time buying a monitor because i need a bigger screen for my laptop, its nice and big, but I need to install an app to adjust its brightness because I didn't see any introduction on manual on how to do it, and also need to buy a Display Port to USB-C to connect it to my laptop because my laptop only have one HDMI, but overall its running ok and its good for watching movies and anime
