Crazy bright! HOW WONDERFUL!

Full disclosure, the first one I received out of the box had a 20% defective panel (broken, too bad but it happens) - my first attempt to return/replace it with Revain was a mess (took over an hour , to get nowhere). But the second Revain employee I spoke to (I ended up just hanging up and calling back), she got it done within 10 minutes, very easy! The second panel worked, 100% works MIRACLE! I have 3 monitors and thought I could just replace "primary/middle". the other two are so dim (and…

  • Great HDR monitor for the price. Haven't done any HDR color grading yet. However, it looks great.

Defective lighting system. Noisy cooling system.

The monitor works well at times, but there are two main issues: - The backlight is poor at times. This currently only happens in Dolby HDR. Sometimes the right half is dark. Otherwise the left half is dark. The halves aren't quite out, but it looks like there's some sort of halo or memory effect. The image I captured showing the half white/half gray content is a 100% white video rendition. Please note that the gray color on the screen is not a reflection. This is what the video looks like on…

Make sure you get the exact item you order

Twice I received the monitor version -P and not -PK. I even contacted support before the second monitor shipped and was assured I would receive the -PK model. No, have the -P model. The difference between the two lies in an inexpensive color calibration tool. Otherwise, the two models are the same (although the labeling of the mini-LEDs is different). So if you order a -PK monitor, make sure you get a -PK box so you don't have to spend extra money and time on the X-rite i1 Display Pro…

Know your graphical input capabilities.

4K resolution has been around for the last 5 years and is moving towards 8K. Your graphics card will make a difference as you will need at least 6GB VRAM, 8, 10 or 12GB VRAM is better. You need a high-end graphics card like HP Quadro RTX 6000 or nVidia RTX 2080 Super with excellent drivers. You have to push the boundaries to see effectiveness. Remember that the better your PC is paired with a quality monitor, the better your end results will be. Spending so much money on a monitor is better…
