Owner sentiment has improved over time
48/100Our AI sentiment read
- Q1 202155/100
Buyers praise the USB hub and clean setup, but criticize PIP limitations with USB-C, poor buttons, and one unit failed within a year.
- USB hub with RJ-45 works well, reducing cable clutter; appreciated by home office users.
- PIP/side-by-side mode unavailable when USB-C is main input, limiting multi-source use for Mac users.
- One monitor's KVM stopped working within a year; poor customer support response.
- Buttons are difficult to use; accidental power offs. Speakers and mic are subpar, but display and camera are good.
- Q4 202063/100
Buyers praised the monitor's multi-device docking, display quality, and build, but criticized USB-C compatibility issues, poor speakers, and software bugs like wake-up failures.
- Excellent display quality with accurate colors, brightness, and sharp resolution, ideal for productivity and video editing.
- USB-C docking with KVM functionality simplifies setup, allowing seamless switching between work and personal laptops with one cable.
- USB-C compatibility issues: devices lacking DisplayPort Alt Mode cannot use the advertised single-cable feature, causing frustration.
- Software bugs: monitor fails to wake from sleep via USB-C, requiring power button presses; DDC/CI control missing on Mac/Windows.
