It's good, but not without flaws.

I've been using this monitor for 2 years. good1. Excellent contrast and color, you can see it as soon as you turn on this monitor.2. I've never had dead or stuck Pixels.3. Ghosts aren't as bad as everyone says; Medium overdrive is usually the best setting. The monitor has a color shift at all edges of the screen. It's about an inch wide and shifts the color towards yellow at the edges. This mainly happens in dark scenes and grayscale; It is not noticeable with bright content or videos. It gets annoying when playing games at night. Ugly (Very Bad) 1. Freesync is pretty much useless on this monitor. VA panels have different brightness depending on the refresh rate. Gray or almost white areas of the screen flicker (across the entire screen) when using Freesync. Some competitors dynamically adjust the brightness to reduce this flicker. Not on this panel. You can keep it to a minimum, but this will seriously affect the quality of the picture. Those settings are Brightness 25 (out of 100) and using CRU to limit the range of Freesync (in both sections) from 90Hz to 144Hz. decent monitor. Unfortunately I was coming from a G-Sync monitor and wanted to downgrade it (to get used to $300-400 panels). I was very disappointed that freesync was compromised on this panel.
