Under the radar and a sneaky good monitor for Macbook and Xbox One

I use this with my 13" Macbook Pro and 14" HP laptop at work and sometimes with my Xbox One. Examining the monitors, I felt that this model didn't draw as much attention as the LG models and I don't know why. I think if you're looking at similar size/spec monitors I'd advise really looking at this one. I can use USB-C hub power and video transfer from my MacBook Pro, I use DisplayPort input for my work laptop and then HDMI for my Xbox One. Having a network connection on my monitor is also a huge plus for me when using my Macbook Pro with it, I don't have to mess with a dongle and I still get faster than WiFi speeds when it's installed on my desk . For example, I'm not a gamer and don't understand the color specs, but everything looks fine on the monitor - I play NBA 2k and Battlefield 4 on my Xbox and I'm not complaining about colors, speed or accuracy in either of those games. . Of course, I'm a married guy in my 40s who likes to play a few minutes of games every now and then, so maybe my judgment is less harsh than a younger user who has time to take care of small details :)
