> 24 hourSo far everything is working and arrived in good shape. At first glance I will admit I wasnt sure it was curved. I have a Samsung Curve and their curve has a bit more bend to it, alright on to the actual review. NOT DOA - whew (my box had serious gouges from what looked like a sharp metal corner in several spots), no dead pixels either... Im winning at this point. Assembly was a cake walk, pulled it out and plugged right into the stand with a single screw (decent quality). Both the monitor and mount are light, the screen is easy to adjust from a forward/reverse swivel at the base. The button on the back (stick) is easy to use. Ive seen comments that its finicky but honestly my Samsung has a similar selection stick - so I didnt find any issues. This does work with G-Sync or FreeSync - just so you all know - Nvidia came out back in January of 2019 and made more of their monitors universal. Once I had the Nvidia Control Panel up and running (had to update GPU drivers before Win10 would see it) - getting performance and refresh up to 120hz was a few clicks and done. If you want 144hz you will simply have to right click on the background of your desktop - go to display - select the monitor - advanced setting - set refresh to 144hz. I have not played with color tuning just yet, Ive only had the monitor for about 3 days and this was the last item I needed before I built my PC. I plan to play with the colors later and will re-review in a few months. I havent put any games through the ringer on it due to a mobo - m.2 drive issue (thats another review) but I did do a few CPU Bench Mark tests and once the refresh rate was fixed I was wizzing around between 189 - 320 fps on high details. If you use the G-sync you lose fps in order to prevent the tearing - just be aware. I will give a 5th star if it rates one or take one later if something happens - 4 stars is just the highest I will give at this point. If youre trying to decide on size or this one, I can say I was there. 24 is plenty for me. Leaves me with room to expand if I want to, plenty of mount/keyboard room and tower on desk. Great bang for the buck Cons - Ill let you know.

> 24 hourIve had this monitor for a few weeks now. Hasnt failed me yet. Unless your face is really close to the monitor, 1080p looks fantastic. 120 and 144hz run very smoothly. It becomes a little choppy sometimes but that might be because of my very old GPU. My only con is that the menu button is hard to reach (on the back of the monitor) and changing settings is much more difficult than it should be. Other than that, its pretty great. For a curved 144hz monitor for only $199.99, its a pretty good steal.

> 24 hourMonitor works great, but I was having MASSIVE problems with the included display port cable. From not being able to output 144hz to completely breaking an hour from when I had it first plugged in after an hour of troubleshooting it was just a mess. For anyone who plants to buy this use a different cord, it should be able to run 144hz off of a DVI-D cable, a high speed HDMI, or a different brand of Displayport cable.

> 24 hourI like the 144 refresh rate and was good price while on sale. However I will still dock a point because of the unadjustable stand which may not be an issue for some but if you are trying to manage your space and layout the location of the power and input cords can be a little annoying.

> 24 hourPlays well. Clear picture and screen is bright. Adapts to the surrounding brightness as well. I got the 144Hz version and theres a huge different in the playback when Im gaming.

> 24 hourI moved from a 1080p / 60 hz Samsung Curved to this one. I spent hours researching which one I wanted and ended up going with this one over Sceptere. The 144hz is clean, havent changed settings and colors look nice. Brightness is nice off the bat. I see a little backlight bleed when he monitor is black but that doesnt bother me because Im not using it then. Will end up buying a new one eventually most likely.

> 24 hourAt $189 this monitor is worth every penny. Perfect in all aspects for gaming whether thats color, Hertz, input lag, response time. If you feel the necessity to purchase a more expensive monitor solely to make you play better you better buy a gold encrusted gaming chair because this monitor is awesome.
