Works great with Mac!
First things first. I had spent numerous hours researching for a monitor. I am software engineer by profession and I spend 3-4 hour a day working from home.
I needed a monitor that could work with my MacBook and I was on a budget. I looked at lot of monitors but as with most budget monitors they has one thing missing or other.
I wanted few things in my monitor
1- Display port, it gives exception result in font quality. HDMI works well when you have a 4k monitor.
2- Adjustable stand (it in an awesome completely practical stand)
3- Speaker (Speakers aren't really great and this is what you expect from a 2watt speaker)
I had almost purchased view sonic monitor and then this monitor popped up. I liked the fact that it has 360' stand and it really works.
It was really a difficult decision to buy this monitor since it doesn't have a lot of reviews and it just launched but so far it working great and my eyes are thanking me after a long hours of coding.
Also, I am getting full 75hz on my mac!
Cons
-The menu buttons are at the back side which makes it really difficult to guess which button does what
-There are two power buttons! please, who ever came up with this weird design deserves a pay cut! MAKE SURE TO TURN ON BOTH POWER BUTTONS, otherwise you will struggle like me.
-Also, the round button is for navigation, learned the hard way
OVERALL the only downside is the menu button but thankfully you wont be using them every day.
I am happy with the purchase and for money I paid I think it is a good buy!
