It's a VA panel for those wondering.

Good call! Reminder VA usually lower latency but worse screen angles and color representation. IPS has more vivid representation and "nicer" screen at the cost of latency (or price). I prefer VA for gaming and IPS for office work or editing etc.

Got it today and HOLY CRAP have I been missing out. I'm really late to the party but the difference from my old 1080p monitors is crazy. The colors are beautiful, the refresh is crazy fast at 165 for gaming and so far I'm thoroughly impressed. I'll update again if anything changes but so far I'm a happy camper.

VA has better blacks than IPS. IPS has better color.
Ah you are correct, I think it's the lack of good contrast uniformity like the other comments says. I have never had a VA where the blacks looked right when there were slight variations in the darkness.

VA does not have uniformity contrast. You see band of brightness and darkness, not good for photo editing.
Not good for photo editing, slightly better for watching movies.

No USB-C so not a single-cord solution (for those who care).

I recently bought 2x Lenovo 34" UW IPS units for productivity and the single-cord solution / built-in hub is a game changer for productivity use cases (can run USB and ethernet through monitor and pass everything -- including the video signal and 90w PD -- through via the single USB-C connection to the computer, and then daisy chain together though DP).
Is there a good usb-c hub solution that is also good for gaming? I want to use it for my work laptop but also for my ps4. The only one I found so far is the gigabyte m27q pro. Thanks in advance!

If I'm using this for work, is this one or the Costco deal (https://www.costco.com/lg-35%22-c...95387.html) better?

The ergonomic fully adjustable stand and USb ports on the back has me leaning towards LG for the office. I bought my Samsung because it has a USB C, 2 USB-A and Ethernet. I use it as a KVM switch for my work laptop with the USB C thunderbolt.

Probably better to pay couple ten dollars more for a brand name if you are going to buy a VA panel.

Looking at pulling the trigger but no reviews as it's brand new. Anyone have any experience with Sceptre monitors? Also is this HDR? Even their own site isn't clear...
Still no review for this monitor yet….

I've read that Sceptre is able to provide monitors with better specs as they take screens from other manufacturers that don't meet their quality standards. The specs on this monitor may look better on paper than other manufacturers at this price point but the actual quality of the screen may be lower compared to something like the Costco deal. Tough to choose between a larger manufacturer with lower specs but better quality and this one with better specs but may have a lower quality

Would this be good for a Xbox series x? To be more specific, would it automatically fill out the full ultra wide display?

Hi, is the height adjustable? As in can it be raised/lowered vertically (not tilt)

It's curved for that very reason
