Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

1. I'm a professional video editor, and used to manually calibrating displays, but I had a nightmare of a time getting (relatively) accurate color representation on this monitor. Fiddled with every setting under the hood on both my computer and the display including swapping display port versions, trying HDMI, and even the USB-C input. The most accurate I could achieve was when setting both input and output to HDR, but that's not realistic to use for every program yet. Some images would end up washed out, and some would look amazing, but at least at that setting the accuracy was closest. Otherwise, everything was slightly desaturated, and pumping the saturation up consistently pushed everything toward blue, even using the six separate saturation and hue controls. Any adjustment from there would cause a swift overcorrection. Again, HDR worked best for accuracy. 2. Subsampling method makes text appear lower resolution that it should. Simple enough, text will appear less smooth and more jagged on this monitor than many others. The subsampling is likely why the panel is so cheap. 3. Monitor died in less than 30 days! Monitor and computer blinked out at one point (with everything plugged into a grounded outlet and an expensive surge protector, so it wasn't that). Computer booted back up, no problem. But when I turned the monitor back on, it would only show a (backlit) black screen... couldn't even pull up the internal menu system. The monitor would briefly flash an image from the computer, and then go to black. Wouldn't even recognize power commands from the remote anymore. I searched all over for a hard reset method, tried a few other computers, all the different inputs, but nope... the monitor must have had some part of its firmware irreparably fried.
