So far really great.
The monitor does really well. Colours look very true to life. Super neutral and vibrant.
If you select "VISA HDR600" in the monitor settings, and also activate HDR in Windows (display settings), the monitor goes full throttle. (Full brightness where necessary. HDR just.) I don't think I've ever seen such a good picture from a monitor.
Refresh rate and image clarity are also great, even on the highest override settings (faster response time) I see no ghosting.
Ideal for media creation as well as gaming. And with 32" enough surface for both.
I can say with a fair degree of certainty that the 50-100 francs more, compared to the U3223Q office monitor with 60Hz and only 350nits, are worth it. Provided the PC is powerful enough. (8600k, 1070ti run well at the limit for me even with solid overclocking. (5.1Ghz, 2050Mhz)Pro
- Colours real
- HDR600
- G-sync goes
- Null bleeding or ghosting at 144hz
Contra
- Backlight. But practically not disturbed.
Many small problems
Overall, a good monitor but I keep stumbling over minor flaws:
- Sometimes the monitor asks if a setting should be applied, maybe it's me but I can't find an OK or Enter button (only 3 quick settings, Cancel and the 4 directional buttons, none of which work).
- HDR does a lousy job. When the picture goes dark, the zone lighting doesn't react until a second later.
- In general, the backlighting is massive. Black then becomes quite grey.
- If anyone has problems switching inputs, it's because as soon as an HDR signal comes in, the other signals are no longer recognised. The monitor then has to be disconnected from the mains for a short time, then it works again.
- The latest firmware is installed.
I am aware that the monitor is rather cheap for a gaming monitor. Nevertheless, I expect basic things like input to work on a 600 monitor.Pro
- Brightness
- Sharpness
- Optics
Contra
- Problems sometimes when switching inputs
- HDR partly disturbing (brightness reacts with delay)
- In my opinion, very strong background glow even with black (looks like grey then)
- Operating problems
very good 4k 144hz screen
After a few weeks, it's better. I use it exclusively on my PC.
Observations: - You need to connect it to the Display Port if you want maximum resolution and frequency, otherwise you'll probably be limited by the HDMI.
-The stand is stable but relatively large, so this screen needs a desk with some depth.
There are no built-in speakers. This isn't a fault, it's just something to be aware of when making a purchase.Pro
- 4k
- 144Hz
- Good luminosity
- height-adjustable
- stable on its feet
- blue LED at rear (off since last update)
- Colour calibration certificate supplied
Contra
- A big foot, you need a big desk to put it on and a minimum of space to stand back.
- Poor HDR
Excellent gaming monitor for a descent price
This monitor is dope. I rediscovered my games after switching from LG UltraFine which I bought for 100.- more bucks than this display.
Colors are vivid and bright, responsiveness is crazy good. Brightness is also very good so you can use in bright or dark environment, you might even want to reduce brightness to 90% when playing in the dark. It took me one week to decide whether or not to buy this one because of image retention issue reported on some forums, but I haven't been able to replicate this, it seems the issue has been addressed by firmware upgrade.
All in all this is an excellent gaming monitor for a decent price.Pro
- Amazing bright and vivid colors
- Very good build quality
- Excellent value for money
Contra
- No USB-C
- Cannot turn off blue back-light
Too many problems
Unfortunately a lot of bugs. HDMI on Mac = repeated black picture, i.e. dropouts. Switching from DP to HDMI, repeatedly no recognition. Switch from DP to HDMI the same, monitor has to be switched off and on again.
Annoying OSD operation
Under Windows, the colours are far too bright and cannot be calibrated properly. At least it's decent under mac, otherwise image editing would be a pain. The same in a Windows VM, by the way... no idea what Windows does with the colour display on this panelFantastic, excellent colours
Excellent monitor, especially the colours are fantastic, the position of the USB ports and audio jack is also excellent, but I find it a flaw that there is no USB-C port for data transfer or video.
One flaw is the blue LED at the back that cannot be switched off, but all in all it doesn't bother, even in a dark room it is not noticeable.Pro
