> 3 dayPretty good quality overall, but the light bleed (atleast on my unit) is god awful. Its mostly only an issue with dark backgrounds but i can still notice the bleed on the bottom left corner pretty much 90% of the time regardless of what Im doing. Other than that it seems well made and has a good picture.

Greater than one weekPros: - Great picture quality. Deep whites, rich blacks, vibrant colors. Good color accuracy after some minor tweaks. Great white and black uniformity. Contrast ratio is lower than most VA panels but still a huge step up from an IPS or TN panel. Gaming is where this monitor really shines! - Two display ports, two HDMI ports - Joystick OSD control was snappy and response. Lots of options in the OSD - Very low input lag, very response Cons: - Small text is blurry and has noticeable fringing. I tried solving this by maxing out the sharpness and using Cleartype and several solutions I found online. This seems to be an issue inherent with VA panels. I planned to use this as a work monitor, but this issue was too noticeable for me. Some will be less sensitive to this though - My unit came with some minor scuffs on the back of the panel Misc: - Stand is very study, but has only tilt adjustment - 32 inches is big for a monitor. Great if its your only monitor, but I had this as a second display and my neck was not happy from needing to move so much - Response time is a mixed bag. Most of the time motion is clear, especially in bright areas. Smearing becomes somewhat noticeable in dark areas. I didnt mind it because it was brief, but if response time is important, then a TN panel or a high end IPS panel will work better for you. Hardware Unboxed stated in their review for this monitor than in terms of response time, its closer to 120hz panel overall

> 3 dayI needed a non-curved flat 32 LCD with freesync and connection ports at the bottom of the monitor for my arcade Mame cabinet setup. For me it was hard to find suitable non-curved LCDs at 32 with fast response and freesync or gsync these days. At $300, good overall reviews on the web, this is a great monitor that checked all my boxes. Though the colors are slightly more dull because of the VA panel when compared to my other IPS LCD. This was an expected trade-off for an affordable, smoother, input lag reducing, tear free gaming of my arcade classics and then some at this time. Its not that bad at all, but if offered with same spec 32 non-curved IPS panel it would be 5 stars. Only issue so far is with Pixios overdrive response setting on high. All of my games slow or fast moving had bad shadowing. Fixed it by setting overdrive back to Medium. Other than that, havent experienced any other issues yet, so far so good.

> 3 dayWell I didn’t do very much research before buying this and now I regret that. The response time on this monitor is horrible. During normal usage(eg. scrolling on chrome) the ghosting is pretty apparent. When playing games, especially fps that have dark areas(like CoD), the ghosting is horrible. Even with the overdrive setting to the max it was still pretty bad, although the setting change did help a little. Overall I’d say if you are a competitive gamer or just want something quality that looks nice, this is not the monitor for you, even for a good price this isn’t worth it. For people who aren’t using this for gaming or fast paced things it might work, because the picture quality and brightness were decent, along with no dead pixels. In the end you’d probably be much better off with an asus for the same price. I ended up returning mine because the ghosting makes it not much better than a 60 or 100hz monitor

> 3 dayi really love how much Hz you get for the price. very sold if you want high frames on a budget if your willing to sacrifice a bit of functionality and picture quality for the price. over all solid pick really gets the most out of your console or pc.

> 3 dayWorks decent, it is MPRT, so its not true 1ms response. Not as good as a TN or IPS panel. Dead pixels after 1 week, which they say is expected. Its honestly not acceptable. I had a BenQ for over a year with not a single dead pixel. Will purchase something else and use this as a second monitor. IF you are looking for a main monitor, go with something else. IPS or TN panel. BenQ recommended. You pay for what you get i guess.

> 3 dayOk so the first thing I want to get out of the way is, the monitor has to be tweaked a bit when first using it out of the box. You can use it right away out of the box no problem but you probably want to fidget a bit with the settings because text looks a little blurry and if you have a Freesync compatible GPU then obviously you want to enable that. Also you have to manually set the refresh rate to 144Hz in the display settings but I think you have to do this with all monitors. Anyways for the most part, this monitor definitely has a good price to performance. Being a highschooler that has no job and in this crazy year of 2020, I was still able to afford it.

> 3 dayIf all you want is a big display with high refresh rate and freesync, this is a good option. My only complaints is a lack of brightness (doesnt get too bright) and only getting 8-bit display color vs 10 for my old monitor. Very happy with $300 for this compared to $500+ for a high quality option at the same size. Also, the VESA mount isnt centered, which makes mounting it along with other displays harder. However, I am happy that it at least has the option for the mount.
