    I needed a big monitor to watch stock charts and this one was on sale for $450! It was a steal. It’s equivalent to 4 24 in monitors and i don’t have to buy any stands. Box arrived dinged in 2 spots but monitor was fine. I can see the text perfectly fine to trade. I tried getting inputs from 3 different computers and it worked fine. Glad it has speakers. No flickering. I actually like it better that the monitor is not curved.

    I thought this would be an amazing monitor based on the specs - but I had several issues.
    1 - The text readability at full 4K (No scaling) was really bad and blurry. Not terrible for games, but for everyday use - not good.
    2 - The image quality is not good at all. First - even on custom settings you cannot get the picture to look natural - it always looks like the Gamma setting is too high - the whole screen has a gray "cloudy" look - either because the View angle is bad, or you just can't get natural looking colors/blacks. The image ghosting looks like a laptop from 1996. It was actually hard to play anything on this screen - even browsing the internet was miserable. I was replacing a 43" Sony XBR 4K (about 3 years old) and this Asus monitor can't even hold a candle to it. Not to mention there is barely any flexibility for inputs and outputs. My TV can only go to 60Hz at 4K, but it looks WAY better. I also get a full android platform as a smart TV on top of being a stellar gaming screen. I'm keeping what I have - no reason to down-grade to a more expensive monitor. I would pass on this one - It's not easy to buy and try this thing - learn from my mistake - and don't even bother.

    I got this with a discount from an Amazon 3rd party seller "Adorama" which Amazon is now selling for the same price. I have not detected any dead pixels. The screen is a little bit uneven towards the lower right hand corner where it appears to be slightly darker but only when there's a white background. Again, that's just nitpicking because on the plus side the VA panel I received has almost NO blacklight bleed. It's almost non-existent which for the size and type of panel is rather impressive.

    The Remote as has been mentioned in other reviews tends to suffer from some "Lag" so if you press a button on the remote, it's best to wait 1-2 seconds before the button press shows up on the screen. I find pressing the remote buttons a little bit harder tends to make it a little bit more responsive but maybe that's just a placebo effect.

    As far as performance goes, it's "JUST OK" for HDR. It's not the brightest panel but it looks decent. ASUS sells another ROG 43" monitor which supposedly is 1000 nits brightness but it's more expensive. There's always a trade off but i'm okay with that as HDR and Ray Tracing is not high on my list of must have graphical features. Sure it looks nice but its not going to make the game any better or worse for me. You might feel differently about HDR.

    The display panel in 4K @60 FPS shows some blurring in games when panning from left to right but I compared it to my 1ms 240Hz Alienware panel and I also notice the same blurring effect with that panel @ 240Hz so I can't say this 43" is the problem. Maybe it's normal and it's dependent rather on the game.

    The colors do pop, and the screen throughout looks extremely sharp with its 50 sharpness level which you can increase from 0-100. Overall, I am quite pleased with this monitor. Also of note, is the stand. It's about 24" wide and if you want to place it on a narrow TV stand it should be fine as long as the width comes close. My TV stand is about 23" wide and I just about made it so I didn't have to buy another stand.

    At $799 it's an excellent buy and this sucker is freaking heavy so two people is recommended to move the large box around to unpack the contents.

    For someone who has dealt with using a TV for 15+ years as a monitor due to being 10 ft away. You need this for yourself. Money is no cause when it comes to this to yourself. Real 4k, Real 120hrz (None of that Tru 120hrs) no more 40ms delay think more like 4. If you area hybrid gamer that uses a PC as a console. This is for you.

    Self info. Went through 7 TV's in my lifetime seeking that perfect one. this is it your search ends here guys. From all my testing only issue I've found is doesn't allow you to light up your room at night. Keep in mind you need a Display port cable version 1.4. to get the 120hrz default cable comes with it doesn't support it due to being HDMI.

    For those PC hardcore guys? Keyboards are the best. this monitor sucks compared to X? This is the first step to us hybrid guys. There are only 2 43inch monitors that are 16:9 on the market. Please don't wreck it for us. By giving it bad reviews.
