    Wide HD monitor that syncs with your game

    Installation: Easy to install. Iterating through the monitor setup is not cluttered. There are many options for adjusting monitor settings, image enhancement (Pro mode) and ASync Premium. Hardware: It stands firmly on its feet. The materials are durable and of high quality. I like the circular LED backlight behind the monitor that changes hues. I like that you can adjust the height and tilt of the monitor. Image quality: high resolution. Good for games. Synced with the game.

    Everything I really wanted but

    I really needed to upgrade my previous monitor. And this is an update but the display can't keep up with my GPU I think? I get pixel halos and everywhere I can find information on the internet, this monitor's display is to blame. It's a great size, I can still play at higher frequencies, but pixel ghosting, especially when gaming, is just really hard to deal with. Just beware I guess, but it's still a great monitor.

    bigger and brighter than expected

    A lot of other reviews have complained about how this monitor looks out of the box, but with a few tweaks to the monitor settings, it looks amazing. The curved nature of a monitor really makes a difference to a flat monitor when playing immersive gaming. The cost compared to the product you will receive is a fair exchange. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a curved monitor.

    Excellent value for money and quality

    This monitor has a lot of features for its price; Free Sync, 165Hz Refresh, Curved Panel, etc. Free Sync is compatible with G Sync and 165Hz is buttery smooth. as well as size (cheaper Vesa mounts don't hold it). Overall this is excellent value for money.

    GREAT display for the price!

    Delivered FAST via Revain Prime and NO dead pixels on arrival. So far the monitor is great. I've run No Man's Sky on it for about 15 hours since it released and I'm getting about 100-140 fps on high settings (AMD Ryzen 5 5600X and AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT on MSI X570-A PRO 16GB 3200MHz) . Everything looks MUCH better than on my old 27" 1080p display.

    Picture will not be picture to picture

    Although it is a thin frame, the image is displayed on the monitor as if it were a normal frame. Also MSI OSD software gives fatal error when installing itself with MSI motherboard. Having to hold on to my Asus monitors, I feel like this monitor was a bait and switched between the features advertised and what it really is.

    Great entry-level curved monitor.

    I love this monitor. It's bigger than my previous one. The price was a little higher than I wanted to spend. But I have a feeling it will be the "future proofer" of my gaming rig. Setup was very easy. IMPORTANT REMINDER when unpacking this "monster": When attaching the stand, hold the foam under the screen. This gives him support and is described in the supplied instructions with somewhat vague "pictograms". Overall, I would recommend this to anyone wanting to experience a large curved monitor.

    Amazing monitor, although Revain sucks

    I love this monitor. It is great. My problem with Revain is that they lied about the 2 year warranty on my son's tablet. The charging port was broken for a little over a year, and instead of honoring the warranty, I received a $12 refund. The support rep was as helpful as they could be, it was the company's fault not theirs.

    Don't buy if you want to install.

    A decent monitor for the price. But it's not compatible with the 75x75 Vesa mount as my mount doesn't even fit in the indented circle on the back. There were no mounting adapters included. I wish MSI would fix this problem.

    disappointment in my head

    I didn't buy from Revain, I bought from IBUYPOWER. When turned on, the monitor screen flickered and then went black. Brightness settings didn't work. It seems that the backlight is bad - a very dim screen. UPS repair cost is $70 as MSI does not pay for return shipping.

    I love this monitor for gaming. The size and curve just let you immerse yourself in the game. It takes a bit of getting used to if you're using it for work (especially since I'm switching between these 4K at work. But I think it's perfect for gaming. I still suck at gaming, but it's much nicer when I'm exploding !

    Perfect monitor - works with Xbox

    I leave honest and truthful product reviews so people don't have to doubt what they are buying. This monitor is amazing. Outstanding build quality, style and functionality. The stand is amazing. The screen is clean and sharp. Curve is perfect for gaming. This monitor is perfect for Xbox Series X. You can reach 120Hz at 2k resolution with Freesync enabled. I looked at several monitors before realizing they actually do it at this price point. It's also upscaled to 4k at 60Hz if you're interested…

    Got this to upgrade a very old gaming monitor I had. I've had a glossy screen for years and finally this matte one. I am very happy with the image quality and the ease of setup. Runs HDR and has no problems. I usually play 4-5 hours a day and that was a dream. Very satisfied.

    Great monitor for the price!

    Great monitor for the price. I use it for business, not for gaming. I used a good DP quality and set the max resolution to 2560x1440. I have 2 of these monitors. Both are set to 144Hz and I had no issues with flickering etc. No lag either. I have a newer ZBook laptop with a decent laptop graphics card. It definitely helps! I recommend this if your graphics card can handle it!

    I use this for all my gaming purposes which is why PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X depend on it. Beautiful image with HDR, amazing response time and perfect for using PS5 downscaled from 4k. This boy is BIG but has one of the best value for money I've found in a monitor.

    Fantastic monitor but beware of the quick release stand

    I have two of these great monitors that work and one of them costs an expensive letterweight thanks to the quick release button on the stand. I would give 5 stars if that wasn't my problem. It was too easy to detach the monitor from the stand by lifting the stand to connect the cable. In hindsight, this wasn't the best plan for connecting a monitor. Be careful, you have been warned.
