-EDIT- About 6 months in, and this is still a fabulous monitor, I couldn't be happier. It does everything well that I wanted it to do, and then some. Highly recommended.
I like to read ebooks on my PC, so there are a few things that are important to me. 1) Picture quality. This monitor has a GREAT picture. 2) The monitor actually works. I had to send an AOC monitor back for refund prior to this one due to a permanent red line down the middle of the screen. So far so good with this one. 3) A "reader mode" to reduce blue light. Check. 4) High resolution. Check. 5) IPS display. Check. 6) I read comics too, so I need the monitor to rotate to "portrait" configuration. Check. 6) Height adjustable so I can put it on my monitor stand, and stand up when I want to. Check.
All in all I'm very happy so far, assuming it doesn't fail like the AOC I just sent back. One odd design decision, in my opinion, is the base. It's a really wide arc of plastic, almost as wide as the monitor itself. It's not a problem, so I'm not taking a star off, but I would have preferred a more utilitarian, traditional base. The base actually sticks off the edge of my monitor stand a little.
One added bonus is that you can turn off the stupid power LED on this one! Hurray! Man I got tired of my old monitor blinking at me all night.
The OSD is nice, and the multiple "split screen" modes are something I've wanted for a long time.
Oddly, the audio actually sounds better than the integrated sound from my motherboard. It's more clear, louder, etc.
Overall, A+ so far. I really can't say enough about the picture quality. Fan-tastic.
