BIG MONITOR - my new review

I had a 32" curved monitor flanked by two 27" flat screens for my home office, but as I was talking about going back to the office, I figured I'd need a similar setup at work, where I three 27-inch flat screens. flat monitors. I stumbled across this little one and decided to make it bigger for home and get a 32" for work. (Maybe I need to reconsider, my son has now claimed 32.) For my use case, I'm fine with this one Monitor quite happy. However the 2560*1440 resolution brings it up to this screen size. I mainly work on this so 2.5K resolution is fine. But if you are a gamer I don't see how this screen delivers the detail "The base is understandably large, and I'm considering a wall mount. Installing the mount seems pretty easy, except for one thing - it's a BIG FUCKING MONITOR. Yes, because of the massive size of this thing, it is very difficult to work with. And the instructions say several times not to touch the screen. It even came with white gloves which was a nice touch (check out what I did there) . It also comes with a handy remote control to access the settings menu and control other features like volume, power and source. It even has a touchpad for navigating the settings menu. The white color is different and makes the monitor very stylish. It also has PIP and PBP (Picture in Picture and Picture by Picture) features that allow you to get a second window with different inputs. I haven't tried it yet, but I can add my Mac as a second input. Overall I give this monitor a 4. 4K resolution would give it an A.
