  • Image Quality is Sharp!
I really like the sharpness quality for this monitor especially since many of the colors still retain their richness with some color balancing. This monitor is fantastic as a main monitor especially since it's definitely something else being able to game at 144Hz in 4K. The one small issue I ran to was the Display Port cable wasn't the best so I had to buy a better one off Amazon, but I have not had any issues whatsoever after swapping the cable it comes with this the Amazon one. P.S If anyone is interested in the cable I bought for this monitor it is called: Cable Matters [VESA Certified] 6 ft 32.4Gbps DisplayPort Cable 1.4, Support 8K 60Hz, 4K 144Hz (DisplayPort 1.4 Cable) with FreeSync, G-SYNC and HDR for Gaming Monitor, PC, RTX 3080/3090, RX 6800/6900 ... show more

  • Happy with my purchase!
Packaging seal tape was undone on arrival, but all parts were still inside the box. Monitor had no visible defects, no dead pixels, and works perfectly. Overall I am satisfied with my purchase.

  • Very nice monitor once you get it working
I read the other reviews regarding the HDMI flickering issues so I decided to try and connect this to my MSI Gen2 USB 3.0 docking port (which in turn is connected to a MSI GE66 Raider laptop) with the provided Display Port cable. The monitor turned right on and I was able to turn the resolution all the way up to 4K @ 60Hz with no problem (60Hz is the max the docking station can output unfortunately). However as the attached picture shows it does seem to have an odd "smearing" or "pixilation" problem with any icons, windows, taskbar or programs that are open on the desktop. The desktop background itself looks beautiful. I also had to take this picture with my phone because a screen capture looked perfect. I have submitted a ticket to MSI and have yet to hear back. In the mean time I decided to give the HDMI2 port a shot. First try gave me the extreme flickering issue. I unplugged it and plugged it back into HDMI1 and this time it came up perfectly with no issues...resolution, refresh rate and everything works perfectly as advertised. Sadly this seems to be par for the course with all of my MSI Hardware. Things work...for the most part...but they require a lot of futzing around to get them work correctly. Over all, now that it's working I'm pretty happy with it. Can't complain about the picture quality at all...it's beautiful. the RGB lights on the back provide a cool gamer feel, and for my work the 4K resolution is extremely helpful. The only reason I docked this down to 3 out of 5 stars is due to the 4 hours late at night it took me to get it working properly. ... show more

  • dead line of pixels in under a week
would have been a perfect monitor if two lines of pixels didn't die in under a week. I didn't even look at the thing the wrong way and it broke nonetheless. was able to look over the 3 dead pixels that came out of the box.

  • poor panel quality
it hasn't been a week and already several dead and blocked pixels have appeared, from what I saw in the reviews and general experience this monitor has a high probability of generating dead and blocked pixels I will wait a couple of weeks and if it continues like this, I'm afraid I will have to return it. ... show more
