There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
This is a new item, shipped from Amazon gave best cost. Came with the expected port, 2 HDMI 1 Display Port, which is how mine is connected to my iMac, via a USB-C to Display Port cable.
This is a sweet 4k display for the price. Best deal out there I've found atm. Take time to adjust the settings, got it matched to my iMac display with little problem, just a little patience.
The base is solid, the tilt feature works well. Nice thin panel bevel, less than on the iMac. The panel as suggested, looks great.
For production/fidelity/accuracy, I recommend getting a Spyder calibration kit, which I will be updating mine for my new high dpi panels, which will dial them in both to match even better, as well as for establishing different monitor settings profiles for various workflows in regards to color, contrast, brightness, gamma.
I have not yet played with the PIP nor Dual Input mode features as I don't currently need them. Nice to know it's possible however. It's better to have capabilities you don't need and maybe find a need for, than be short on features you find later would have been useful if you had them.
Comes with a 4 year warranty, which almost seems generous relative to most electronics nowadays with their ridiculous 90 day warranties.
If you have trouble finding a less expensive monitor, don't be surprised you end up coming back to this. There's an LG out there that's comparable, but this was still cheaper.
Some might be curious if this is a good monitor for games. I would say, if you are buying a monitor specifically to get the most out of your gaming hardware, this may not be the answer. It's response is rated at 5ms, which is not fast.
However, for Photoshop/Image Editing, Digital Painting, Video Editing, properly Spyder calibrated, this monitor is very sufficient. It's wonderful as a second monitor in all cases, but for things like game development and audio recording/mixing, it's perfect.
Pros:
-4K resolution + IPS + 10-bit color from a brand I've at least heard of before AND less than $300--it's the only monitor I know of with all of those
-Much brighter plus much more accurate colors than my previous monitor!
-Sturdy metal base
-The top and side bezels of the monitor are super thin--maybe around 1 cm. The panel itself is quite thin, too
-Sound output built in (NOT speakers though--see below)
Cons:
-Others have pointed out the lack of VESA compatibility but I personally wasn't planning on mounting my monitor anyway. My last monitor also wasn't VESA compatible. Either way, if it's a must-have, look elsewhere.
-If you're hoping it has built in speakers, it does not. Like most people, however, I use my own. What it DOES have is an audio *output* port via the HDMI 2 cable, which I actually use. What this means is the audio comes from the HDMI cable that's plugged into your video card, then you use a cable that connects the audio output from your monitor to your speakers. I personally just use an Oontz Angle sound bar speaker, which is more than enough for my needs (and sounds much better than any built in monitor speakers that I've ever heard).
Other Thoughts:
-4K is probably a little overkill for a 27" screen, but 1) it's a new standard for TV/etc. (as opposed to 1440p) plus I do watch movies and broadcast TV through my monitor, and 2) the main reason I got it was actually for sharp text in large spreadsheets that I put together for work, and this is rocks for that. It's WAYYYY better than my last monitor (a 23" 1080p HP monitor) in that regard! And 3) for things like gaming you can set the resolution to something like 1440p
-It's "only" 60 Hz--obviously; the thing is, 1) a 4K monitor pushing, say, 144 Hz is currently hundreds and hundreds of dollars more--literally. And 2) even if the monitor had the capability, virtually no video cards today could push out those types of frame rates at that resolution with today's latest games, so no real point, at least not for a few years.
-I have to admit that I myself am not a massive expert who has compared dozens of the latest high-tech monitors. I'm primarily just comparing this to my previous 1080p HP monitor, and this one blows it out of the water, so I'm happy with the purchase!

Me tomó un tiempo decidir si era la decisión correcta pero como no quería gastar, lo pensé demasiado hasta que me decidi. Y realmente por el precio (ojo) yo pagué 5000 por el. Una ganga por este tipo de calidad.
Bueno, la decisión fue la indicada. La imagen es muy similar o casi exactamente la misma a la de la pantalla retina. A mis ojos asi se aprecia. La calibración de fabrica es perfecta y ya. En verdad no hay mucho que decir. Barato en comparación con otros 4k y la imagen es increíble. Yo lo usaré para visualizar numeros, datos y poco de codigo. Entonces para mi es necesario poder ver letras super claras aunque esté pequeña la letra. Los angulos de visión son excelentes, el rango de brillo no es tan amplio pero me da igual. Tiene filtro de luz azul, lo cual es importante. Y bueno, para juegos no sé porque no juego nada. Pero quizas no sea el mejor monitor para eso por lo que leí por ahí.
Para duplicar la pantalla de tu laptop es la mejor opción en 4k que hay. BBB (bueno, bonito y barato)
Muy recomendado!
Update:
Después de una semana sigo encantado con el monitor. Por el precio, en verdad no encontraran algo similar. Yo me tardé mucho investigando las mejores opciones.y este monitor salía como la mejor opción. Lo recomiendo ampliamente.
EL unico pero que pondría seria que una MacBook Pro de 2016 que es la que uso, se calienta demasiado cuando corro algún video en la pantalla a resulución 4K. Mejora si no uso la pantalla de la Mac y únicamente uso el monitor pero solo tarda mas en calentarse en exceso y los ventiladores se prenden. Esto hace ver una perlicula o video muy molesto. La solución que he econtrado es conectar con un cacle HDMI y un adaptador HDMI a usb c porque esto limita la tasa de refresco a 30 htz entonces es menos pesado para la compu correr un video.
