Almost perfect - my new review

It's a great looking screen with a good feature set and specs for the price. I really like the buttons and menus as they make it very easy to change settings unlike many modern monitors. In fact, there are only two things that kept me from 5 stars: First, the PBP/PIP feature only works with certain connection combinations. Unfortunately, it doesn't work with HDMI on one device and USB-C on another. For my Mac Mini (HDMI) and Macbook Pro (USB-C) use case, I can't use PBP/PIP. I ordered a USB-C to DisplayPort for a Mac Mini to see if that fixed the issue. Problem because USB-C/DP is one of the combinations that according to the manual work. Second, the "cabling" is not up to date. As you can see from the photos in the item listing, it's just a few protrusions on the back of the monitor stand. Cables don't run through or hide in the monitor stand like many other monitors on the market. The power cord is shown without using anything else to hold it (see photo). The PBP/PIP issue might be the deciding factor for me since I bought this monitor and not others specifically for this feature, but I can live with the cable routing. Update: A combination of USB-C with DisplayPort and USB-C worked for PIP/PBP. Using this monitor in combination with a Logitech mouse/keyboard with Flow technology makes it very easy for me to work with both computers side by side and switch peripherals easily.
