Just purchased this screen and I wanted to give a shout out to those who are working from home and still using 1080p. This seems to be a solid monitor so far:

- 2560 x 1440
- 27 inches
- IPS
- Great sound system for built-in speakers
- 100hz
- VRR if you're into that kind of thing
- 100% sRGB coverage (no neon greens or over-exaggerated reds)
- This does mean no wide gamut though. No HDR capabilities but for my use (programming and just general use) it's not an issue.

For a grand total of $223 it's a good screen. Everything is adjustable: tilt, swivel, height. Stand could be better but it's not bad. Overall this seems like a great monitor for those of you who are working from home like me. I do wish it had a camera but obviously at this price point it won't have one. I haven't dialed it in yet with the colorimeter but the out of box accuracy looks pretty good (it's close to my other calibrated screens). No idea if it actually has 1500:1 contrast. That's a wait and see when I get it under the meter. But overall this is a great all-rounder!

I liked it so much that I got another one on sale. Great screen. Still happy. Perfect WFH screen.
