I am very satisfied with the screen.
In my opinion, there are no real shortcomings.
Unfortunately, as is often the case, it was delivered without a Swiss appliance cable, which was the biggest drawback.
It is very bright, good value for money, g-synch runs well, has a gaming mode in which it is automatically dimmed, speaker quality somewhat poor (but who needs monitor speakers?), operation rather tedious, supplied manual poor (could not find one for exactly this monitor until now), has quite a few functions (game mode, 3 profiles, heart display, and many more), stand quite large.
Make sure you order the right display cable. (possibly mini Displayport to Displayport).

I bought the monitor for gaming. G-Sync works without any problems. The design takes a little getting used to. The stand could have been a bit smaller, as it protrudes a lot to the front and you can't push the keyboard all the way to the monitor.
The calibration is complicated. It takes time to adjust the colours. There are even YouTube videos with the "supposedly" best settings (this is always a personal preference). I calibrated the monitor myself with the Sypder Express. Now it's OK, but not the hammer. It's less useful for photos etc. The focus is clearly on gaming. That was already clear to me, but I thought maybe it would also be suitable for other tasks.
