> 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 dayI actually liked this monitor compared to my old monitor, which was a 75hz ASUS TN monitor, but it had way better color. The high fresh rate is fantastic and the thin bezel are also a plus, but Its not perfect. Like many people have said before the color is alittle bit off and the contrast takes a little bit to get perfect, maybe its just me idk. Overall if you want to upgrade to higher refresh rate monitor this pretty great for gaming, if you can get the off color and the contrast balanced you should be good

> 3 dayIts a really nice monitor with some minor flaws. It has a bright and colorful panel. I like how nice the image looks and the colors pop, and while I can sometimes see some slight smearing and ghosting in dark scenes of certain games and movies its not a deal breaker. I read online there are better, more expensive options but for my budget I am very pleased. Heres hoping that it will provide many years of use. The only quirk I encountered was learning how to bring up the OSD menu when changing video sources. If you only hook one device youll never have to deal with this, but if you do then switching sources is not as straightforward as it should be. It is also somewhat confusing should the monitor fall asleep. Just remember to leave the input selection settings on Auto Select and to press UP on the control stick to invoke the source selection menu. The monitor I got appears to have the latest firmware, which uses an updated (smaller) menu. I can activate Freesync in all refresh frequencies (including 165Khz), which I heard from online video reviews was not possible in earlier firmare versions. Now that I had the monitor for a while Ive settled down to lowering the brightness a little bit from its default setting. The high refresh rate is a treat but what won me over was the next step in resolution. I am really digging 1440p at 32 inches. Love the extra real state on my desktop. 2K, 4K, and 1440p or higher streaming content on youtube and Netflix shines on this monitor. If you can grab one go for it. You wont be disappointed.

> 3 dayUsed as a temporary monitor between omen 1080 to 1440 monitors and well worth the money. Monitor has great option features like crosshair built in, different color settings and presets and plenty of hdmi and dp ports to plug all your gaming consoles into one. Would be one of my go to monitors for 1080. Also always remember to go into the settings and manually set to monitors optimal htz level. It defaults to 60htz for every pc. Don’t hesitate to buy!

> 3 dayLiked the monitor, bought it last May, so less than a year. Could it have been bumped? Possibly. But if so, it was indetectable to me. Happened while gaming. Cant see any area on the screen thats broke when its turned off.

> 3 dayOverall this is a quality monitor from a good company; packaging is secure and somewhat premium and the build quality is solid for such an affordable portable monitor. However if you are planning on using this as a larger screen for your Nintendo Switch as I did, make sure to use the official Nintendo AC adapter instead of the one supplied in the box since the power delivery system for the Switch has such a unique voltage. The supplied adapter surged my console after connecting over USB-C and I was unable to turn it on until doing a hard reset; which initially made me believe that the console had been bricked. But I would still recommend using official Nintendo power supplies for any external devices for use with the Switch.

Greater than one weekThe 144hz 1440p monitor is flipping fantastic. I upgraded from a also pretty dope MSI Mag series 144hz curved monitor and this thing knocks it out of the water in terms of color reproduction and overall image quality. Sure the jump from 60hz to 144hz is huge, but the jump from 1080p to 1440p is also a pretty big trip. Text is really sharp on this thing and the sheer amount of screen real estate makes almost necessary to have multiple things going on at once. The 165hz is made possible by turning off freesync and fiddling with the monitor settings in windows and the tradeoff is ok but either is great really. Its not quite perfect as when I put up my pixel to the monitor the colors are considerably less vibrant and while streaming quality varies from device to device, while watching Game of Thrones infamous S8E2 there was more choppy black to dark grey transitions on this monitor than my phone. Might be a combination of OLED vs VA and phone vs PC but just thought Id let it out there. Brightness is also not quite to the level of being able to have a window left wide open on a sunny day, but it hasnt left me asking for more often.

> 3 dayUpdate Nov 5, 2020: The monitor is still going strong. It is on a gas mount stand now. No issues or dead pixels. First review: I am really happy that there is a high Hz 32 inch flat screen option. The Pixio included display port cable is locking. With the freesync disabled and in DP 1, the included cable will do 165hz at 1440 on gtx 970. I like how pleasant the screen light was on the eyes compared to the monitor I have been using. The colors are very decent for an 8 bit monitor. The stand is sturdy and the feet have rubber grips. The headphone audio out works. No, this monitor does not have speakers. I love that this monitor is flat and is cheaper than a gsync. My PX329 32 inch monitor arrived damage from amazon packaging wrong end up. I tested what I could before sadly packing it up for a return. It happens. Pixo was great to respond to my email and get a hold of Amazon to make this process faster. Wonderful customer support that goes above and beyond.
