> 3 dayThis is a great monitor for the price. Is this as good as a 4K curved monitor with a high refresh rate? No. But it’s less than half the price of one and at it’s price point there is little to nothing that’s as good as this on the market. Great value for your money.

> 3 dayI almost returned this monitor, as the picture quality was garbage when gaming, with significant blurring and color bleed/smearing with any kind of motion at all. It took me a while to realize that this monitors response time just isnt good and doesnt work well with Freesync. So, I enabled MPRT for the response time, which automatically disabled Freesync (as it should), and all those above problems went away. With my current GPU I get 85-100fps running with the 144Hz refresh rate, and dont experience any screen tearing at all, and with MPRT enabled its a very smooth experience. Id expect with my upgraded GPU (on order) that Ill get near 144fps to match the refresh rate and it will improve all that much more. I dont know if this experience was specific to me and my build, but just sharing my experience for any out there struggling with the advertised quality of this monitor.

07-06-2025I had one monitor already for gaming use, but instead I used it more for video editing and music creation, in fact, I liked it so much that I decided to buy another to have dual monitoring capabilities.

> 3 dayI was debating 2 side by side monitors vs getting this one. The main reason was to allow me screen space to have multiple programs running and being able to work on 4 spreadsheets at the same time. This screen gives me that function and it feels much cleaner and aesthetically pleasing.

> 3 dayI love Dell products so this is a hard review to write. But, I am just so disappointed with this monitor. The display was never stellar, but it seemed to be OK for what I needed. As I began using it with Linux, however, it fought me tooth and nail for compatibility (something Ive never experienced with Dell in the past). Between a lack of documentation at Dell (which admittedly does not profess Linux compatability) and an unusual lack of even forum support for dealing with resolution issues on this model, it was a nightmare of tweaking and holding my breath. It should NOT be this hard to get a monitor to play nice with LInux. The button controls are awful, ridiculously UN-intuitive and their integration with what you can set/change from the desktop is just not up to snuff. It seems to me monitor vendors need to make up their minds about whether they want their devices to be plug-and play or annoyingly customizeable only through advanced manual dexterity. I bought this is October of 2022 and I am literally throwing it out today in February of 2023 because the screen is apparently broken. Ive had a lot of monitors over the years and this is a first - Ive never had a screen break on me. I use my tech a lot, but am not by any stretch of the imagination physically hard on it. I had a curved monitor once before and found it fragile but it NEVER broke on me - in fact I gifted it to a business associate during COVID and they are still enjoying it. The entire right side is of the screen is taken over with spider webs and the bottom half is like someone added a gray overlap on top of the screen. I am assuming constant use of the button controls must have stressed the screen, but who knows as this point. I have a couple HP monitors I will replace this one with and manage with dual screens instead of a single curved display - cheaper and FAR more manageable.

> 3 dayI moved from a dual (1 IPS 27 2k and 1 IPS 24 4k) panel setup to this panel and the 4k 24in vertically next to it. This panel does have more washed out colors than the IPS panels, but the darks are SOOOOO nice and crisp, it makes up for any color loss, i love it! Also the expected VA smearing is so well handled it does not bother at all in gaming, and I play Star Citizen, which is mostly in dark space areas. I have mine set to very fast per what reviews recommend and what my own testing also showed to be the best setting. People who say once you go wide-screen you cant go back were not lying, it is an awesome experience, especially for immersive games like star citizen. I kept the 24in 4k in a vertical orientation next to the ultra-wide to be a accessory screen for things like discord and obs while Im gaming. I watched a lot of reviews ahead of purchasing this panel and they were all helpful in selecting this over others, im ultra happy with my decision on this ultra-wide :)

> 3 dayWas super excited to get this monitor, upon receiving it and plugging it in for the first time a quarter of the screen doesn’t work with lines all over the place.
