First, it will be much easier if you have someone help you open the package and install it. I didn't do that and I wasn't happy the next day. This screen is huge. It literally goes from one end of my desk to the other. I'm not even sure I have enough space. I really hated it for the first half hour. Then I realized that Windows 11 has some really cool window snapping options, and one of them was configured to have a larger window in the middle and smaller windows on either side, which worked for me.
The image quality at full resolution is very poor. Even if I leave the picture settings to Eco mode, the brightness becomes quite bright as it is comfortable for my eyes. Playing with them is a new experience (and using them in general is a new experience for me). I've played Destiny 2 and Final Fantasy XIV and both games support hyperscale and look great. To really take advantage of this in Destiny, I had to upgrade my graphics card... my 3080 forced me to use a lower resolution to maintain a usable FPS.
The menu system is easy to navigate and offers many settings. In fact, basic sync is non-existent because the RGB lighting on the back of the screen is so dim. It's so dark that I can't even see the wall when I'm sitting in front of it. This is disappointing because it really adds to the immersive experience of watching movies or playing games.
Overall I am satisfied. My only regret was when it stopped working because I had to make the decision to replace it (which cost a fortune) or do without it (I'm not sure I would go back now).
