Pros: curved not too much or too little, 144hz, 1440p, 1ms response time, color quality is phenomenal, bezel is pretty small, I could keep going but theres nothing off the top of my head right now, Cons. Upon release it seems my panel was faulty and flickers whenever I play any vieeogames.ive tried every troubleshooting process know to mankind and cant solve it, and it has pretty noticeable backlight bleed. Overall, all of that and only being 440 dollars at the time of my purchase is pretty incredible and a great deal and I'm super satisfied even with the flickering

This is great gaming monitor. It comes in at 27 inches 1440p which is the ideal size for 2k. The monitor runs at 144hz which allows for smoother gameplay and follows through when testing. I do not notice any ghosting, bleeding, or screen tearing when running games at 144hz. The colors are very great for a VA panel, as close to my IPS (dual monitor set up) as i can tell. Very bright whites and dark blacks. The VESA adapter could have been changed so it wouldn't be recessed (does not allow standard VESA mounting without extra tools) but the stand itself is sturdy. The button on the back to change monitor settings is intuitive, though requires a lot of pressure to press which I dont like. The interface is pretty easy to use which is great. Overall very pleased with the colors and hardware and how it runs. This will easily be my gaming monitor the next few years.
