A 1000R curve is a good thing in a big monitor like this, right? That way it's in your field of vision without much head movement needed.

GPT laid it out for me.. if you sit about 1 meter away, its perfect. reddit sentiment is mostly positive, some just don't prefer it. Others find they Love it. May depend on the tasks you'll use it for.. ask GPT to read what redditors say,

Also, GPT or google for settings on how to make it re-fresh, or pixel-shift. the OLED is known for potential screen burn in the long-run and they have created programs in the monitor to help prevent that... just read up, and remember to setup those programs so that it refreshes itself and pixel shifts

This is an LCD, not OLED. You're relying too much on AI.

VA panel for this one - no burn in, but less desirable in many other respects

Yes for this size having 1000R is better than 1500R or 1800R. It will feel it wraps around you reasonably. I chuckle when I see a monitor that is 32 or 27 inch and has a 1000R curve as if they assume the user looks at their monitor from less than a foot a way lol

I have the Neo (mini led) variant of this, the 1000R curve is great and a reason to stick with the LCD over the OLED version. Works well in a corner type desk too.

The ~$700 price range is how low I have seen this version go for before.

1000r to 1200r is not aggressive for this size in fact this is desirable compared to 1800r which looks almost flat for this size.

Use this monitor everyday. Fantastic upgrade over budget VA panels especially in terms of ghosting, it blows budget panels out of the water. I use this monitor for productivity and it's fantastic with windows fancyzones.

it's a great monitor but be warned you'll get way less frames for games
