First impression: very good
This monitor just arrived (I am looking at it now writing this review) so I can't speak to its long-term quality/durability. That being said, I am very impressed right off the bat. I wasn't really sure what to expect with it being curved, but frankly the curve is not extreme. In a good way. I would say it adds a small amount to the viewing angle and overall aesthetic of the monitor, which is perfect. Too much curve makes it annoying and less usable, this one has just enough to actually offer something of value and not just a gimmick.Picture quality is quite good. This is replacing a 10ish year old Samsung 24" monitor that was insanely good quality back in its time, and I was surprised how much better the quality actually is. I don't use it for anything too intense, just work stuff and watching some videos and movies, but it performs very well for that.The aesthetics and build quality are great for a monitor at this price point. I was surprised to find the neck of the monitor's mount is actual metal rather than silver-painted plastic. It includes some cable-grabber things (designed to, I imagine, lead cables from the back of the monitor down to where they plug in) that don't seem to really be useful at all, and the instructions barely mention them. For me, that's not really a huge deal. If you're concerned about tidying cables, some 5 cent zip ties will work much better anyway. I was also pleasantly surprised by the "edgeless" design. It definitely has edges, the screen does not go all the way to the end, however the edges are small and nicely beveled, which gives it a very modern and high-tech look. Though, the screen is flush with the edges, so if that's what they mean.... then, well, it is. At any rate, it seems to be a very nice design that looks great.It also includes a little screwdriver to install the massive number of screws it comes with.... 3. I'm sure the little screwdriver cost very little to manufacture, but it seems wasteful to me. Who doesn't have a standard phillips head screwdriver? And what are you going to do with this little cheapy screwdriver after you've used it for all of 3 screws (if even that, I'm sure most people will use their own anyway)? Throw it away. Seems wasteful to include it. Not really a knock on the monitor I guess, just a comment to the manufacturer.Overall, if you want a monitor that looks sleek and modern, has solid picture quality, and you're willing to spend a bit extra but don't want to go crazy, this is a great choice.Ver másVer menos
