Great review! one of the biggest pluses of this monitor is that it has FOUR 4K60hz+ inputs. I don't think you will be able to find any other 4K monitors within $400 that has that many 4K inputs. Granted we are missing the usb-c input that are a lot more common now but you can always use a usb-c to DP cable. Also, I have a few 4K monitor with the usb-c but only go up to 65W power which might not be enough for a few laptops nowaday. So would be nice to have usb-c but not a huge loss given you have FOUR 4k inputs
I know this is a dumb question but can i hook my console up to it and get straight to gaming? I see there's menu buttons to set it up but i do not own a pc
Hello! I recently bought this monitor as a result of this review and have mixed feelings on it. While the specs are what I was looking for, I feel the white saturation and black levels leave a bit to be desired. Do you have any recommended settings for this monitor, specifically to address this issue? Thanks!
Thanks so much for letting us know! Your only real adjustment to play around with the backlight... increasing the value would increase your black and white levels or vice versa. If that does not cut it for you then I would return... always good to buy and try in person and then return if need be! Budget might be an issue but if blacks is what you are after then an OLED monitor might be your best bet?
This is a 4k 70hz monitor so unless you care the most about resolution and have a powerful enough system to match it I would say that I don't recommend this monitor for any gamer starting out. This monitor is geared more towards productivity vs performance imo! If you are just starting out there are plenty of fantastic 1080p/144hz monitors in that $100-200 range!
Do you think this monitor would pair with an Xbox one x? It won’t go to 144hz so the 60hz would be perfect. One x has hdmi 2.0 at 4k 60hz Your review of the 27 inch seemed promising for Xbox one x
I just bought this because it's on sale for $199.99 or $213.22 after taxes with Amazon Prime. Well, my Amazon Prime is a free trial and since I'm poor I'm going to cancel it after it. I just wanted to save another $6.93 or however much it is. Plus my Dad says he might want to but stuff on Amazon soon too. I think prime is like $13.99 or $14.99 a month and my Dad kept saying I was incorrect lol. I think he was shocked to learn how much Prime is a month. Also, in the reviews there's about 2 or 3 reviews that claim this can be overclock to 120hz in Nvidia Control Panel. Is this a flat out lie? Is this onyl a 70hz Monitor? Either was it still seems like a deal for a 32 inch 4k monitor. This is replacing my Dell 32 inch 4k 1800r curved monitor that cost me 400 bucks years ago. That one is only 60hz and I have a small scratch on the left side of the screen. The Dell one is going to go in my bedroom with my Amd build.
Thanks for this feedback. We get it every so often. We are currently working on redesigning it to be less distracting. We are at a loss without it because it helps prevent our videos from being stolen!
I'm thinking of getting this monitor just to watch movies on firestick / chromecast
Awesome! I think you would really enjoy it for that application!

It was a great video
Thansk!
Does this have mounting options?
yes vesa mount
Excellent review. For me, this monitor would be for an audio production and maybe streaming PC on an articulating arm. For that, should be ideal.
Yes! More productivity oriented for sure!
Does it work with FreeSync?
yes
Does it have a 1440p mode for console
You can set the resolution to 1440p in console?
Yes if the monitor supports it @tvchef
Consoles options are 1080
1440
And 4k
I know this is a dumb question but can i hook my console up to it and get straight to gaming? I see there's menu buttons to set it up but i do not own a pc
Yes!

Thanks so much!!! Very informative review as well!
So would you recommend to anyone who’s starting out gaming to buy this monitor? And is it good for games like Fortnite, COD, and Genshin impact?

@@tvchef thank you so much this helped a lot!!!!
So are you saying that for the Xbox series X you would go if a different monitor?
It depends on what people want but yes if I was just buying a monitor for Xbox Series X I would go a different route!
can we overclock it? Because on a review from amazon, someone said that his monitor has reached 4k at 120 hz/fps.
I have never tried so overclock at your own risk??

Your review of the 27 inch seemed promising for Xbox one x
Yeah I think it would just fine! If that is the route you end up going be sure to follow up in a new comment/thread and let us know!

It is a deal for what this monitor is spec wise! In regards to overclocking we have never tried so I am not sure! Glad to hear you like it though!
That logo on the lower left corner changing constantly from RUclips > Twitch > Facebook ruins the video. So distracting and annoying.

I didn’t even notice it till I seen this comment
I gotta be honest. I am watching this at home and at best that monitor looks 1080p..
Hard to show quality over a screen about a screen being filmed on a camera ha!
