Greater than one weekUsed for gaming on Xbox Series S. Used high speed HDMI 2.1. No matter what settings I used (overdrive, Freesync, both together), I could not get rid of the ghosting or screen tearing on any game. Especially noticeable in games where you are indoor where objects are closer vs an outdoor setting. The picture quality was weird too. It made games look shiny and the transitions from light to dark was not smooth at all. The dark would instantly get too dark Not sure if its because its a VA panel, but I would definitely not recommend using this model for gaming. I would go for the IPS panel model from Pixio.

> 3 dayLiked the monitor, bought it last May, so less than a year. Could it have been bumped? Possibly. But if so, it was indetectable to me. Happened while gaming. Cant see any area on the screen thats broke when its turned off.

> 3 dayOwned now for 3ish months. Pretty much none stop abuse between family. Short version. Perfect condition, Contrast is off, fixed with PC RGB. Hat switch not broken just lazy. Long version. Bought for xboxonex. The price/size/specs fit our needs to not ty up tv. Monitor arrived perfect condition. Well boxed, NO bleed, NO dead pixels that i can see. Very Happy. Some reviews stated contrast is off and Yep, contrast is off for my eyes to. And no settings compisate for it. No luck trying known settings. I found a setting iam darn sure ive never seen/used before called pc rgb. Wich flags a warning!!! this setting extremely darkens screen. And no joke its dark. Had to counter with monitor brightness maxed out. Absolutely fixed mine. Do like screens a bit on bright side. Probably some wiggle room on max bright for most peeps. Biggie is i now have ingame and monitor presets for useable Options/adjustments. Games/movies for my eyeballs, looks wonderful. Did have both pc and xbox hdmi,s plugged in and powered on when i made the setting. PC rgb setting did stick. No intensions of having pc hooked up full time. And have not after day 1. Xboxonex Side by side same game running on last years 24inch LG gaming pc monitor glad to say looks great considering the huge difference in all system specs and 300$ bigun vs 450$ LG little bugger. happy with both. Even with contrast being off target i might have given a 5 star except had to draw the line at no power button. Play alot online always turning off LG leave game running take a break. Silly not to have one. Reviews stating returned, hat switch was broken or not responding. I found same issue. In my case, noticed not broke just a heavy sleeper. When monitor goes sleep mode so goes the hat except the hat refuses to insta wake monitor per say. Its on its own life path or just needs a cup of joe before responding. Hat mashing did nothing. Trust me i tried while cranky. I hit it and wait it out or send fire to a hdmi port. Xboxone hdmi 1. Pc hdmi 2 monitor will only wake to last used hdmi. Auto detection for both hdmi,s would rocket costs from 300$$ to 301$$ so iam thankfull. Since mine is xbox dedicated none issue.

Greater than one weekI’m a videographer by day and gamer by night. Color and picture quality are always important. This monitor was a perfect budget option for working on the go. Paired well with my MacBook Pro. Have yet to try it for gaming but look forward to it. Only downside was I bought this from Amazon Warehouse and the video/data capable usb-c to usb-c cable was missing from the box. As Mac users know this is essential for connecting the monitor to the MacBook Pro and not all cables are created equal when it comes to usb-c or Thunderbolt 3. So it took some time to hunt down a cable that work when it should have been included with the original product packaging.

> 3 dayThis may sound trivial but monitor doesnt have an on and off button,for my application that is very inconvenient because i use it in a two monitor system. in order to get best use out of it i have to unplug the power cord to allow my video card to sync my other monitor. I am also not crazy about the one button on screen tuning would have liked to have had a remote with on off and on screen tuning,the button on the back of the monitor is very inconvenient for my setup as i have to resync this monitor often. Just my 2 cents worth but if your getting it for a 2 monitor system i wouldnt recommend it. picture quality is good and refresh is good just the above mentioned inconvenience for me.

> 3 dayPros: 144hz Monitor 1080p Display Works Great with whatever you put on it, works great with PS4/5, Xbox One/Series X/S, PC, Nintendo Switch. Looks great with my setup. Cons: Brightness settings don’t help very much, brightness isn’t horrible but could be better Sometimes Ports don’t work, have to unplug and plug display cables back in After 3 weeks of use one of my pixels turned red, it’s small and barely noticeable but definitely concerning.

> 3 dayWindows 10 inherently has scaling issue when you have a big sized monitor/high resolution like this one in a multi-monitor setup. My text and overall windows toolbar/apps text were blurry and shadowed, fiddling Windows cleartype settings didnt do much, not even the scaling to beyond 100%. I had to apply the registry hack (also there is a tool that does the job i.e. Windows 10 DPI fix ) and after that, the monitor and windows 10 danced together nicely. Texts are sharp and clear, toolbar menu is all nice as it should be. This is not this monitors fault evidently. For normal desktop use, you wont find it much different than your regular office monitor but its when you are gaming, thats when it shines gloriously. Gears 5 is much more vivid that before on my old LG monitor. The only thing Im missing on this monitor is the ability to tilt and swivel. That is a basic necessity these days for a monitor, I hope the manufacturer will incorporate this in their future models. Overall happy with my purchase. Now back to my Gears 5 mission. :)

> 3 dayHave to say I was skeptical. This is not a Korean monitor if anyone is wondering. It’s a company in Cali but still small nonetheless. When I got the packaging open I was pleased to see the amount of foam protecting my monitor. The monitor stand while not adjustable is completely solid and made of metal I did not expect this and was absolutely impressed because I didn’t even get a metal stand for my 700 dollar ultrawide that’s in my bedroom. Got everything put together with the bolts provided which are very easy to work with. Now came the moment of truth turning the monitor on was kind of a moment I was fearing because you never know what kind of problems can happen with the panel. Turned my computer on and the monitor fired right up. I let out a sigh of relief because Everything was perfect. No dead pixels. No uneven backlighting. No strobing. No problems! I am absolutely shocked and pleased with this purchase. I can’t belive this kind of quality that beat out lg and Samsung (both are high dollar past purchases for me) came from a small company in Cali. Good job pixio team. You built a great product and you just earned a repeat buyer.

> 3 dayDe momento funciona perfectamente, lo único que le podría criticar es que tarda un poco en encender, que los parlantes incluidos no son nada buenos ni en volumen y calidad de sonido
