But I really love it!
+This is a beautiful monitor. The 1000R curved makes it easier on the eyes after a long day at working. I stare at a screen for 8 hours a day for work, so I wanted a curved monitor which will not add to the fatigue so this monitor helps when I want to relax for gaming.
+This has a wide color gamut and high pixel density which makes a good contrast and beautiful visuals that you would normally see on a IPS panel instead of a VA Panel like this. This has better color display compared to other similar models like an Acer 1000r Curved 27" monitor.
+Freesync works no problems with my rtx 3080 so no screen tearing.
Now the CONS.
- NOT HDR CERTIFIED: The product title can be misleading to regular consumers. HDR Ready (keyword bring "Ready") means it fulfills the minimum requirements to support High Dynamic Range (HDR) but was not certified to do so (probably related to certification costs). What this means for us is HDR can be turn on for certain applications and games. For example, I can turn HDR in Battlefield 1 graphic settings which was released in 2016, but not newer games like battlefield 2042 and cannot enable HDR in the window display settings.
I got this on sale for $249, however would not buy it at regular price if HDR is your requirement.
- NO Monitor Joystick. This screen doesn't have a monitor Joy stick so it's hard to customize the settings while only using the buttons under the screen. At this price point, I would expect at least this.
- UNABLE to turn on 165hz mode manually on monitor. For whatever reason, and it could be the particular unit I recieve, I could not turn on 165hz in the monitor settings. Click on the setting only gave me to turn on location for some weird reason. I had to download the MSI display app just to enable 165hz, but it would sometimes reset to 60hz when I do that.
Conclusion: Overall Im content with this monitor, however I would reccomend this only if its on sale and if you need a 1000r screen. If you don't need a curved screen, the next best monitor I would reccomend for a 27" that is HDR certified would be the LG 27GP850-B.
