Strengths:
Motion clarity and colors are really good. Cable management passthrough is helpful for keeping peripheral cables out of the way. Includes a built in KVM switch, but I have not actually used it yet. Good horizontal viewing angles. OSD shortcut to change between monitor profiles is nice and convenient.
Weaknesses:
Has some backlight bleed near the bottom corners of the screen, but I don't notice it unless I'm using it in a dark room. I'd prefer to have buttons instead of the flimsy OSD joystick. Plastic construction is creaky, particularly with the mounting point between the panel and the stand. Vertical viewing angles aren't great and content looks washed out when looking from above. Lower minimum brightness would also be nice. The panel finish is more reflective than I expected and can affect the image when used in a bright room. Came with a stuck pixel, but managed to unstick it for now by applying some pressure on that part of the panel.
Additional Comments:
My previous monitor was a 24" 1080p 60Hz TN panel, so this monitor is completely different from what I'm used to using. The extra screen real estate of 1440p is really nice and the high refresh rate is awesome for gaming. The actual contribution of this particular model to my positive experience is debatable, but overall I'm generally happy with it. I did make sure to buy in-store product replacement though in case I start noticing problems like dead pixels.
