Buyers in Q2 2021 praised this monitor's VA panel quality, minimal black smearing, gaming performance, and value at 1080p. They noted minor backlight bleed but were highly satisfied overall.
- Excellent VA panel with almost no black smearing and fast response time, ideal for gaming.
- Perfect for 1080p gaming with high refresh rates, especially given GPU shortages affecting higher resolutions.
- Good build quality, easy menu controls, sturdy stand, and G-Sync works out of the box.
