excellent gaming display for the ps4 pro or pc
By Kyle on Reviewed in the United States on November 26, 2016
mg28uq - this monitor is brilliant for it's intended use. it's basically a swift junior. the color quality and overall shading looks just like the TN panel swift monitors. the color and overall shadow texture is good but not as good as a decent IPS monitor. i bring this up simply because this monitor is excellent for gaming and for long hours in front of the monitor. it however is not what you want for fine detail , photo editing and 100% RGB. if you bring up a solid color it will appear slightly different in one corner vs another but this is just the nature of TN. the blue light reduction is also excellent and the monitor can properly display white. some of you may have noticed a lot of TN panels either making the white creme color or tinted, this one does not have that issue. i also have noticed that doing tasks that would make my eyes hurt on my last ips monitor after a few hours no longer do so with this monitor. it could just be me but this panel is very gentle on my eyes from a strain perspective. another thing worth mentioning is 1440p also looks pretty good in game. unless you have a pushed 1080 vid card gaming at 4k is somewhat unrealistic on many titles simply because the hardware won't support it. personally i have an i5/4.2ghz cpu with a 1070 vid card. fallout 4 at 1440p looks really good and skyrim remastered will run at 4k around 45-50 frames per second with ultra-ish settings. i have also tried this with the ps4 pro and my god does it work well. lastly the height and angle adjustment are absolutely top notch. connectivity is also basically perfect with a display port, 4k hdmi 2.0 input and twin hdmi 1.4 inputs. this monitor is often 75 or so dollars more than the samsung 590 but you get one hell of a lot more value for that extra money.

Great monitor if it didn't have stuck pixels
By Melissa on Reviewed in the United States on December 30, 2016
Edit: So after running multiple cycles of a program designed to unstick stuck pixels, the stuck pixel is gone (at least for now). I rated 3 star due to the pixel issue. Now that it's fixed I'd give this monitor 5 stars. I love everything about this monitor EXCEPT the super annoying stuck red pixel in the middle of the screen. I saw all the reviews that mentioned stuck/dead pixels. I took a chance and ordered this monitor anyways, and now I'm the proud owner of my very own stuck pixel. I'm still trying to decide if it's worth the hassle of going through a return or not, but having a bright red pixel that's always on is beyond distracting. Either way this will probably be the first and only monitor that I order online. Stuck/dead pixels are a pretty common issue and it's much easier to be able to just take a monitor back to a retailer and swap it out instead of having to deal with shipping it back and waiting for a replacement.
