Anyone tried using dual qhd monitors setup using hdmi port connected via a usbc hub? For some reason I'm only getting 2560x1080 resolution on the HP monitors while my other AOC monitor gets 2560x1440p, switching the cable and the port on the usbc hub still show the same thing. The only way to get the full 2560x1440p is to plug into the other available hdmi port on my laptop and the other hdmi using the usbc hub. Any one come across this issue?

BIM111 panel.

No IPS glow. No backlight bleed. No dead pixels. Running hdmi until I get new cable usbc to display port for my legion 5 pro. Looks great in Mechwarrior 5.

Folks really should try monitor out before just sending back.

I will note colors don't quite Pop! Like laptops screen (which is really brilliant when rtx3070 is at full blast). I will eventually have some time to play with the settings.

IIRC it's the same panel that's in the LG 27GN800, with the added bonus of better adjustable stand. So it's like getting a 850 for $175.

Played some Pubg and Wc3 on my LIM111 and am really happy with the performance. Don't forget to turn on GSync and 10 bit color in the Nvidia control panel. GSync is off and color is set to 8bit by default.

I also recommend anyone who received the BOE panel give it a shot before returning. It is supposed to be very comparable yo the LG panel. I'm not sure if the differences would even be noticeable. My LG panel has noticeable IPS glow and BLB, so it's not like the LG panels are perfect. For $180 its hard to beat either panel, IMO.

Thanks for the reminder and I completely agree about the quality for the price, even if it's the BOE.

I got the LIM111 and it looks great. Not really any different than the previous lim101 I got. The viewing angle is excellent on these, in a fairly lit room I had no problem seeing things on the screen at a 45 degree angle

Received my monitor the other day. Haven't gotten to use it yet as I'm waiting to build my desktop and my laptop has no HDMI or DisplayPort

Just checked comments and saw there are multiple panels- looks like I lucked out! Got the LIM 101.

Ordered a few minutes after receiving the text for the deal.

Make sure to test it before 30 days since Amazon is probably easier to deal with than the manufacturer.

Time has little to do with what panel you received but if you want to be helpful, location is probably more important, specifically where it was shipped from.

how does the monitor look? Working well? Any issues?
I set it up today and so far so good. Coming from a 1080p monitor so it'll take a couple of days to adjust.

Got a LM111 from Goodyear, AZ. Slight lightbleed from bottom left and bottom right corners, but basically can't see it unless screen is completely black. Overall, pretty happy with it.

Got two of the BOE panels. Both look great. These are my first 1440p monitors upgrading from some old ASUS 21.5 inchers. Played some StarCraft 2 and halo infinite on them to test out in addition to the monitor tests that are out there and they did the job great. Keeping em.
