The monitor was everything as described.

Used for gaming on Xbox Series S. Used high speed HDMI 2.1. No matter what settings I used (overdrive, Freesync, both together), I could not get rid of the ghosting or screen tearing on any game. Especially noticeable in games where you are indoor where objects are closer vs an outdoor setting. The picture quality was weird too. It made games look shiny and the transitions from light to dark was not smooth at all. The dark would instantly get too dark Not sure if its because its a VA panel, but I would definitely not recommend using this model for gaming. I would go for the IPS panel model from Pixio.

The case and cover on this excellent little monitor are made of durable ABS plastic. Here is my rundown: Pros: Super compact, light, single Type-C cable for signal+power+audio, moderately bright, anti-reflective matte screen. 60Hz. Nice packaging w-decent power adapter + cables. Compact/minimalist stand +flip cover. Sufficient rear-firing sound, but not loud. Super thin and easily packed. Cons: A little edge/backlight bleed from IPS panel - but not a real problem, Volume setting is not remembered after sleep/wake or power off cycle (always resets to 50%). Bottom line: Recommended!

Works 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.

I purchased three of these monitors for use in a triple monitor setup with a newly built desktop. No dead pixels on any of the monitors. Monitors auto detect at 165 Hz on DP1 with no issues. Overall very satisfied with purchase (my use is gaming and productivity). My one gripe is for the placement of the rear IO on the monitor. It is located such that installation of the display port cables (which install vertically) will be visible under the screen. If you are trying to wall mount these, and hate the site of cables dangling down below your monitor, you will need to find a low profile or 90 degree cable to accommodate the low placement of the rear IO. I use a rtx 2080 ti - and I never could discern any visible benefits of FreeSync or GSync which is why I opted for these lesser expensive albeit high refresh rate FreeSync panels even tho I have an Nvidia card.

I purchased three of these 32-inch monitors on Black Friday 2020. Best Monitors I have ever purchased (So Far). The quality is flawless, sharp and colorful. I upgraded from (2) 22-inch 1080p monitors that were almost a decade old. I plugged these in and turned on my computer, I nearly fainted. I had a smile from ear to ear for days. The pictures on Amazon does not do these monitors justice. These monitors are HUGE. quality is great and the colors are awesome. And its sharp, like really sharp. I found out about these monitors from watching eSports & gamers using them. These are VERY worth the money. Currently using them in 1440p mode, but it does go 1-step higher. But since my GTX 1070-Ti is not that great in handling anything more than 1440p I didnt go higher in resolution. I am waiting for prices to go way down to normal prices on the GTX 3090 graphics cards, to try higher settings. Anyways, I dont want to babble, ill just say that since Black Friday 2020, ive been extremely happy with these. And I hope nothing happens to these monitors that I seriously love. Hope there is great support IF it does. Thank you Pixio :)

My 15yr old son loves this monitor for gaming. Says it has better graphics than his curved monitor that was three times the price, happy buyer!

Perfect monitor for its price

Its an amazing looking moniter, but its sort of pixely in dark videos/games. Update: I just got a better computer and now its great! The darker light is t pixelated anymore. Great, and cheap product

Outside of lackluster brightness and contrast for a bright environment, this monitor is a dream on paper. 165Hz (144Hz adaptive sync) 2560x1440 with the black levels and lesser backlight bleed of a *VA LCD while maintaining the input delay of a faster IPS or slower TN panel. The higher overdrive settings are useless for how overaggressive the effect is, but outside of that this monitor seems like it could work for anyone. Unfortunately, its not all good. The first screen arrived intact. The packaging was just the monitor box and a cardboard sleeve that fit around it. Setting it up, there were no noticeable defects and the screen looked uniform on lighting. Turned the screen off and mounted it, only to turn it back on and... No signal. Maybe a cable? Swapped the power supply and DisplayPort cables around and same deal. Power supply LED goes from a solid green to period flashing when plugged into the monitor, indicating its shutting itself down automatically. Let the monitor sit unplugged for a day and tried it again. Turned on for a few seconds before going black, power supply again blinking to indicate a possible short. Probably a bad capacitor. The screen has to be replaced. Second monitor arrived with an extra box protecting the cardboard sleeve. It also had a flat piece of styrofoam fitted between the front of the display and the inner box, which was oddly absent from the first monitor. Set up and plugged in, it worked, although this one had a dark smudge over 7-9 pixels in the lower half of the screen. It looks like dirt caught between the panel and cover, but its barely noticeable on anything but a solid bright background and just looks like the screen needs cleaning. I can live with that. At least theres no dead pixels. Until today, over a week after I first plugged it in. Suddenly theres two dead pixels stacked vertically just right of the center of the screen and it shows up in everything I do. Now Im wondering if that supposed dirt caught under the cover isnt actually the sign of some horrible defect and whether or not I can expect more pixels to go bad just weeks into use. I get that pixels can die over time, but this short of a window is ridiculous. So now I get to return another screen and hope Amazon doesnt take it upon itself to ban me for not throwing away hundreds of dollars on defective or broken products. This screen would be a great one if it arrived with only minor blemishes, but Im two of two in with one screen DOA and the other showing signs of serious deterioration only days into use. It might be beyond a smaller company like Pixio, but monitor manufacturers should start implementing pixel perfect options. I would have payed extra to avoid these headaches from the outset. Update: Changed review from two to three stars due to the third model working so far without error or obvious fault. Even though the screens arent the epitome of hardware with their sub-144Hz pixel refresh speeds that lead to some blurriness with moving text, overaggressive overdrive ghosting effects, and inherent LCD faults like backlight bleed and black levels that are far from perfect, they are a solid 4-4.5/5 if you dont end up with a string of bad eggs like I did. For now Im leaving it at 3/5 due to the implications tied to the majority of monitors sent my way being defective. Hopefully my experience was a fluke and the vast majority of buyers avoid sharing my frustration.
