Wonderful monitor, crisp, bright. Sound quality is OK
By Bernard Farrell on Reviewed in the United States on February 8, 2019
I bought this monitor so I'd have a high resolution desktop for working from home, I'm a software engineer. I love the quality and brightness of the screen. Currently it's working at a 30 Hz refresh rate but I don't see any flicker. I need to get direct HDMI cable to get 60Hz from my Macbook. I don't plan to do this anytime soon because of the lack of flicker. I had hoped that the sound quality would be great as the monitor has 5 watt speakers. They're better than previous monitor speakers I've used but I found they sound muddy and certainly don't provide me with an "immersive multimedia experience". Adjustability is great and I also like the buttons on the side and the interface they've provided for changing settings. I'd recommend it highly and will be working on making this a standard screen for software developers where I work.

11-16-21 Edit *: Looking for Flickering? A permanent screen tear about 1 1/2" from the top? Severe ghosting during games, streaming video, scrolling web pages? Intermittent blackouts that can only be solved by physically unplugging the power supply? RMA process that expects me to spend more money sending it back to them, inside the warranty period?! This piece of **** has it all! If you need a monitor That's great right until Amazon won't just replace it with a new one, & essentially burn $400ish, this is the pain in the ass for you! Keep shopping. It's what I'm doing 2 replacements, & less than a year later. Original ***: This monitor produces a Great picture. Colors are well represented, refresh rate is on par for gaming, and the speakers are your average crappy monitor speakers. 90% of the time, I love it. 10% of the time, I want to punch it in the thorax. Problem #1: Every so often, streaming video on this monitor only will cause the fps to stagger around 5-10. If I drag the window to one of my other 2 monitors, it is fine. It happens very rarely, and rights itself momentarily, but is annoying enough to mention. Now for the big one. Problem #2: It turns itself the @#$% off! The power brick (I think) resets often, and needs to be unplugged, sometimes from the monitor, sometimes from the wall, to get the monitor functioning again. I RMA'ed the first monitor within the window because it did it out of the box. Now, I've had the replacement for 4 months, and it is being a lazy jerk several times per hour. I'm going to try an aftermarket power brick, and hopefully solve them issue, but if not, I'll have to beat this thing to death with my chancla. Solve the power glitches, and it's a 4-5* monitor all day long. As it stands, I should have saved $250, and gotten another Asus 4K to match my side monitor
