    Customers like the monitor's picture quality. They say it has great resolution, vivid colors, and a clear 4K display.

    15 customers mention ‘Hdr capability’15 positive0 negative

    Customers appreciate the monitor's HDR capability. They say it works well enough for video content, but some find it makes the UI dimmer.

    "...The stand is awful. There's next to no useful adjustments. I have it on a monitor arm, so it's not a big deal to me...." Read more

    5 out of 5 stars
    Very impressed with the picture others are wrong about the audio side of things.
    The picture quality is very good and there are plenty of setup options. Some reviewers have put negative comments about the audio - what they have missed is that while the monitor does not have any speakers it does route any audio from the HMDI currently on screen, (or a selected source when is picture in picture or split screen mode), is routed to a jack for connection to external speakers.Set-up was simple as was adding the stand - there is little or no tilt adjustment.

      This is a great monitor for the money, a super sharp resolution and very even and well balanced colour across the whole screen, though hard to match to iMac screen as it is not as bright. Interestingly, it is much brighter over HDMI to HDMI and an AppleTV, than USBC/Thunderbolt to HDMI, so it might be worth investigating the DisplayPort connectivity if you have it.

      Also to note:

      The stand DOES tilt, but it was so stiff I honestly thought I was going to break it, and gave up until several days later I got fed up of the default negative tilt, and crossed fingers and tried that bit harder.

      The sculpting on the back prevents a typical VESA mount (with both 100 and 75mm spacing) being used. Sadly this “ design feature” has rendered my purchased monitor arm useless. Make sure you get a 75mm only mount and you’ll be fine.

      The Picture in Picture split screen option is interesting and something I may explore more, being able to go “full screen”, with two documents side by side, could be super handy, esp on Mac which doesn’t control tab left/right like you can with windows…

      I’m considering buying a second (the first is not coming back from the Apple TV clearly), but a) slightly less brightness than hoped for and b) VESA mount is making it closer than I’d like to considering the equivalent LG…

      Looks a high quality device, especially for the price. Very narrow borders and extraordinary image quality, especially using the scaled setting (rather than monitor’s native setting) from my Studio Mac. Two HDMI ports is also useful. Nearly put off by a previous review saying the VESA stand adaptor didn’t fit due to screw fittings in the monitor being recessed in a circular bay. This is true, and the adaptor doesn’t fit flush to the monitor. However the single VESA stand I bought from Amazon (for circa £19) came with grommets that raised the adaptor out of the recess. It works perfectly. Highly recommended, especially for the price.

      I paid £250 on 'Black Friday' for this monitor. At that price, for a decent 4k 28 inch monitor, it's hard to complain.

      The screen is decent for what I'm using it for, which is mainly coding. I've got it plugged into a MacBook Pro running the equivalent of 2560x1440 at close to (but not quite) what Apple would describe as Retina pixels per inch. I'm sitting around 1m away from it and am pleased with the quality.

      Colour reproduction is good, but not perfect.

      I tried using it in HDR mode for a couple of days, but have reverted it back to SDR mode. Whilst HDR worked well enough for video content, I found it made the majority of the UI dimmer than I'd like.

      The stand is awful. There's next to no useful adjustments. I have it on a monitor arm, so it's not a big deal to me. However worth noting that the mount for stands uses the smaller vesa size (75mm vs 100mm), but the mounting plate attachment is in a circular recess on the back of the monitor, meaning if you have a mount with both 75 and 100 holes, it may not fit well. I had to use snips to 'trim' the corners of my plate to make it fit within the recess. A dedicated 75 plate will be fine.

      IO is fine. There are two HDMI (2.0) and Display Port 1.4. There is a 3.5mm headphone out which works with anything plugged in via HDMI. Volume for the headphone out is managed via the single 4 way controller button. There is no USB hub or inbuilt speakers.

      On the subject of the 4 way controller, it's fine, but not great. The on screen display for the controls works, but isn't the most intuitive. However the frequency with which you would need to change anything - once it's all setup - is such that shouldn't be a major problem.

      Picture in Picture works well enough but requires a few 'clicks' of the controller to turn on or off. Moving between PIP or even just changing modes in general or coming out of sleep takes a few seconds more than other monitors I own, but again at this price point it's hard to complain.

      In summary, for this price, this is a very good monitor. It doesn't have the feature set or niceties of more expensive monitors, but once setup and dialled in, it's going to work well enough for 95% of situations. If you're after the very best, USB-C connections or mission-critical colour calibration, this isn't for you, but it's not being marketed for those purposes.

      At £250, this does everything it needs to.

      Been looking at getting a new panel to replace an 6 year old 1440p panel I had which will now become my second monitor.

      I'm not entirely sure what is going on with some of these reviews as my only gripe is with the stand as it could do with some height adjustability but its a non-issue as I can just pick up a VESA-compatible replacement if I ever need too and does the job for now. It seems to me most of the negative comments are from people who have either bought the older alternative model available on this page and thought it was the same as this one, which is understandable, or alternatively haven't setup it up right.

      It takes a few minutes to get it setup right but once it's done its an amazing panel, the HDR looks fantastic, and though its not a true 10-bit panel(only 8-bit + FRC) it's good enough for entertainment and non-colour accurate professional work.

      Honestly couldn't be happier for a panel this nice at this price point. Considering I paid nearly £400 for my old 1440p IPS panel before IPS and G/FreeSync more widespread and this is nearly half that currently.
