Not bad, only 60hz which is normal. Personally I'm waiting for a 27" 4k hdr 120hz+ to go with the new consoles. I feel like all these 60hz panels will go on sale because of that.

I have this monitor and it is phenomenal. I paid 500 for it and don't regret it.

Same here, but we're still looking at near $1k for a 100HZ+ 4k monitor. Next year maybe can get one for a reasonable cost. Driving it is a whole other matter.

I'm looking for a monitor for my MacBook pro...

Usb - C this has
Close to 220ppi (via a few different review sites) this is 227

I'm a photographer and videographer but also game a bit.

I edit in 1080 on video so 4k isn't a huge need.

Is this the monitor for me?

Edit- this is about the end of the budget for now. So I know I'll sacrifice and I'd say the gaming is where I'd say is best to do it at.

The "K" after "U" in the model name represents the year model, right? Does anyone know which year "K" represents?

I wonder what color spaces it has superior color accuracy in? Adobe RGB, or ? All it claims is sRGB which is the lowest color space.

For reference this does *not* play nice with the standard USB ports on the back of the monitor. It basically exploded my wireless stand for charging my phone (my guess is it pulled too much power).

I second that, I bought a couple of these last year and they work beautifully with my usb-c laptop. One of the best work monitors out there.

Nope. Bought and returned this Monitor. Calibration was a pain and it developed a panel flicker while in certain settings.

Same here. Waiting for at least 120hz one, and maybe 144 hz. I also hope to get at least a 750 nits brightness model HDR 650 standard. 1000 nits ones are extremely pricy. In the past was hoping to buy either Acer Predator X27 (tends to have a backlight bleeding problem) or Asus ROG Swift PG27UGX when the price dropped as it did now. However, the problem is that 27' and UHD perhaps is not the optimal combo. Perhaps 32' 4K is a better size but the same series but in 32' aren't even out and when they will be out the price would be over $3.5k. if 27' is fine for you, you should check out Eve Spectrum.

How would texts look at 4K on a 27 incher? Is it still sharp or blurry if the resolution is scaled down to non-native QHD 2K or FHD 1080p?
