Great price for the feature set. Pixel density is a bit low for this size. My main concern would be lack of curve for a monitor this wide.
I've had a 34" 21:9 for about 5 years. I've been itchin to upgrade to something larger, and these 40"ers are just what the doc ordered. I created a small spreadsheet of the 5 monitors on the market that I think are competing for my dollars (left out the 4-figure+ options like Dell, LG, Alienware, etc).

Here's my take:
MSI - Cheapest. Good specs. God-awful physical design, but luckily that's all on the rear of the product, and I plan to mount it so the big ugly stand will sit in a closet. Has a KVM, which will be great for connecting the work laptop.
INNOCN - 2nd place. There is apparently no quick KVM feature. If you wanna do PIP or PBP, you have to hit up the menu. Brightest monitor in the bunch. Second cheapest.
Deco Gear - Tempting to chase pixel count, but at the very top of my price range, it's just not worth it, especially with that 75 hz refresh rate.
Monoprice - No listed AdaptiveSync. 8-bit panel. No listed PIP/PBP/KVM. Still more expensive than the MSI.
AOPEN - Just way too expensive, especially for another 8-bit panel. Not sure if that's 8-bit + FRC, but at that price it doesn't really matter. Plus it's white (barf).

This monitor has no curve I believe, it's flat 40'' ips. One of the reviews says that "My biggest concern was pixel density, but I honestly can't see pixels unless I stick my face right up to the monitor. I sit a bit further back so it looks great." I really want to try this monitor 😂

Seems like a great single monitor for productivity . It includes KVM too. If I did not go for 2 of those Monoprice 4K , I would have jumped on this.

Repped. I read all the reviews. Couldn't resist. Did no rush shipping which got me 6% ($21.60) back on my Amazon Visa. Great deal. Now I'll be nervous until it arrives safely. The last gaming monitor I ordered from Amazon oddly got "lost" on its way to me. 😏 I'm sure someone is enjoying it, but it's not me.

Brother bought a few of these, really really nice monitor. Almost bought it but holding out for OLED.

I think the size is pretty good, it's basically a wider 32" monitor.

Such a great feature. So glad to see monitors including KVMs these days. Note, I think it is software-based, and therefore will only work on Windows machines. the PBP/PIP functionality with this has me really tempted. I think this is my next monitor.

Woot had these refurb for ~$260 but sold out. I spotted that yesterday which had me digging into this monitor I never heard of. Now I'm debating on returning my 35in ultra wide LG from Costco for this.
