The quality is good, but the colors are fuzzy and dull.

I bought 2 of these as external devices for my laptop. The overall quality is good, the picture is sharp and the controls are what I've seen on previous similar monitors. They're good enough for me to keep. However, the colors aren't real and I can't find a way to manipulate the controls to properly enhance them. In particular, the factory settings leave the screens white, i.e. not completely white, but with a slightly dirty yellow tint. This is *extremely* evident when compared to my laptop screen (HP Omen 2020) where white is the glossy bright white of "arctic ice". See photo: Take an all or almost white window, position it so that it intersects the line between the laptop display (left) and one of these monitors (right) and the difference between white and off-white is obvious. and obvious. Remarkably, I'm not a gamer - my use case is technical modeling and network research, so perfect color isn't that important and that's the only reason I'm keeping it.
