Very nice for the price

This monitor is exactly what I wanted. Very impressed because I didn't think it would make a huge difference going from 1080p 27" to 1440p 32" but I definitely can. Well done. Metal base, beautiful curve, high refresh rate, you may not like it.

Monitor very good quality

Overall, this is excellent value for a monitor with this kind of specs and features. He has a great reaction time. It's a bit bigger than I expected, but I honestly don't know much about the size. It was easy to set up. The picture quality is excellent. My son requested this for his birthday and loves to play and watch 4K movies on his PS5. The quality rivals our 4K TV.

Good monitor for the price but there is one downside

The size on this monitor was great. And technically everything was fine. However, I have noticed that when I look around while playing, everything appears blurry. This motion blur doesn't go away no matter what settings I try. I ended up sending it back and upgrading to a Samsung Odyssey g7 1440p 240hz. I would recommend this anytime instead.

Ghosting and scratches on the screen

Purchased as new but had a deep scratch in the top left corner of the screen. I turned it on and set everything up, but when I was gaming and even shooting small moving images, the ghosting was really bad at times. At this price, just save a little and get an ASUS or Gigabyte monitor as both are newer and generally better.

Just great in my opinion

He's not too fat. Nice size and great value for money. The color reproduction is very clear and bright. The colors come out so well. The black ones are very dark and perfect for dark rooms. The curve is not superfluous and really complements it. Would definitely buy this again. MSI, you impressed me.

Great monitor, very cheap price

I bought this monitor to pair with my desktop while gaming on my TV. It was immediately blown away by the size, refresh rate, and responsiveness, especially at this price point ($309.99 at the time of purchase). The monitor was physically very easy to set up, literally taking 2 minutes. The issues I have had with this monitor are very minor and to be honest they can be classified as nitpicks but they are still issues for me. First, the monitor is advertised at 165Hz, but you only get that via a

The item may arrive in damaged packaging.

My box was damaged upon delivery and the power cord was missing because the packaging was "opened". Great product but you have to buy a power cord because they use UPS and not the best delivery service. I would return the product but the monitor is already set up and I won't waste my time.

For professional shooters who want to buy this

Stretched 1440p if you play on consoles ignore this review. If you're a PC gamer playing games like CS or Valorant, go for a 27-inch 1440p screen with a 1ms response time over a 32-inch screen. It almost feels stretched and the picture quality is much sharper on my 27-inch screen.

Love the picture quality, build quality and screen finish. The only thing I wish was a USB port to power an LED strip that could be glued to the back, but that's nowhere near a deal breaker!

Good monitor, but ...: my rating

I bought two of these monitors, both in an open box. The first was good with a very nice picture. The second box contains a 24" monitor from 2013. I returned this monitor and received a replacement that was missing the stand and power supply. I didn't need a stand so I plugged it in just to see if it worked. I couldn't get a higher resolution than x1080. Turns out the box had a G32C4 instead of a G32CQ4, hence the lower resolution - but the Q4 box. I understand that Revain and its partners are…
