CONS

(-) 1500R curvature is distracting at first, but not after use
(-) OSD is not the most intuitive
Verdict: “This screen brings new meaning to the word “versatile”. In fact, this screen is one of the best all-round productivity powerhouses we’ve ever seen. It’s not quite as expansive as Philips’ colossal 49in Brilliance 499P9H, but it’s also a much more manageable size with a more reasonable price and more uniform colours. If you’re looking for an all-purpose, future-proof monitor, you won’t get much better than this.”
