I have this monitor and love it, but I'm not gaming so 60Hz is fine with me. The stand is excellent, sturdy, and has up/down, slight rotation, and tilt.

The sound is not very good and sometimes cuts off the first part of a "ding" noise. Like the audio circuit was sleeping and had to wake up.

It has a split screen mode where it can show two inputs side by side - useful for setting up a second computer.
The USB 3.0 hub is kind of silly - it is only 2 ports on the back. But you can turn it "ON" all the time and use it as a 500mA charging port.

It's perfect for an office monitor. It is the lowest price ever I have ever watched since 2021

Looking at the amazon page, an item image shows the USB ports on the back. The one closer to the outside can output 1.5 amps with BC 1.2 charging.

"8. USB 3.0 downstream port | 9. USB 3.0 downstream with BC 1.2 charging"

$250 is a deal, but lot of QC issues with this monitor. I bought a couple from Amazon (iirc it was like 3 open box/warehouse deals and 1 brand new) (I got about 1 at a time, and kept returning/swapping due to defects).

So I think the 4 I got all had the gray border issueMy current one, which I bought from Microcenter doesn't have the gray border, but has pretty bad backlight bleeding on bottom left/right corners that is embarrassingly visible when watching media with a black bar at the bottom.

Overall, I'm really happy with the monitor. It's a good office monitor for general use. The contrast ratio is very nice. And the 1800R curve is very nice (however I think the curved manufacturing is prone to backlight bleed more than a flat).

Stand doesn't rotate. It's only up/down and tilt.

I have this monitor.

Love it, with one LARGE caveat: it has a pretty bad flickering issue with Macs, especially when in dark mode or black backgrounds.

I've learned to deal with it— but would probably get something else in hindsight. Behaves perfectly fine with my PC though.

Good price, though.

It's a curved monitor. VA is standard.

That doesn't mean you should buy it! There are curved, QHD, IPS monitors out there, they just don't go on sale often. For a reason.

Same. Flickering plus alternating darker lines running down the screen. I'd say avoid this if you use dark mode in browsers, editors, etc.

Agree with this. For office/non-gaming just get IPS , it's silly to get VA curved or not.
Also other than looking somewhat fancy curved adds little value functionally. Especially if it already has good viewing angles like IPS.

I did not like this monitor for gaming. Pretty bad ghosting, Vsync issues, and HDR looked bad. Went back to my 60Hz LG IPS.

This is the perfect office/productivity monitor. We probably have about 10 of these in use around the office, with this sale, likely clearance pricing based on previous sales, we are adding another 6 to our collection.

This aligns with the reviews I find online. I'm surprised that this deal is not getting more traction.
