Good monitor is good for me

This was the first 34 inch ultrawide monitor I have ever bought. The size of the monitor is perfect for a 48 inch desk and leaves plenty of room for any size desktop. I decided to return this particular monitor as it didn't meet some of my needs. The advantages of this monitor are that the overall construction of the monitor is solid and elegant. I love the stand's aggressive yet elegant design with height adjustment, swivel, and title adjustment features. Another great feature of the stand is that it simply snaps onto the back of the monitor, making installation easy. The anti-glare/matt screen is nice and smooth. I also like having the power supply outside of the monitor in case it needs to be replaced. CONS of the monitor: The user interface is very clunky and the buttons require a lot of pressure to press. The main downside and the reason I am returning the monitor is that I have a burnt out pixel cluster. Also, backlight flickering is absolutely awful when using YouTube or any other application where one object is dark and the other is light. It has a UFO-like glow around objects.
