Great value for money, one of the best offers.

After reading other reviews, I was very afraid of marriage and any problems. But there were no problems - the matrix does not peel off, there are no dead pixels, everything is excellent in quality. I was afraid that I would need to get used to it, but I adapted literally in one day. First of all, I took it for work - it is very convenient, a lot of windows fit in, better than two separate ones - there are no borders and there is less distortion due to bending.

Pros

1. Hardware workspace change. That is, right from the menu, you can change the aspect ratio to 21x9 / 16x9 / 16x10 / 4x3, which will allow you to run any application without compatibility problems. 2. Possibility of flashing. This gives hope for fixing any problems in the future. 3. A small radius of curvature (1000mm), it is very convenient and pleasant, but until you try it yourself, you do not believe that it can be comfortable. Due to this distortion at the edges is much less and the eyes get tired less.

Cons

1. Huge stand, from the wall to the front edge about 26 cm, on a table 75 cm deep, there is barely enough room for anything else. It is better to use a wall mount, bracket, or a deeper table. 2. Uneven backlight: The image is noticeably lighter at the top and bottom. Probably, it will be possible to fix the settings or software. 3. Glare: although the coating is called anti-reflective, it is such to a very weak extent. The screen perfectly reflects everything, especially windows and chandeliers. If there is a bright light source behind your back, it is impossible to work. The problem is solved by increasing the brightness or turning off the light, which is not always possible. 4. USB hub with only two ports. That is, connecting a mouse + keyboard + microphone + camera will no longer work. It is strange that more expensive models often put four or more. In addition, it is located at the back under the cover, so it will not work often to reconnect devices in it.
