A very good monitor at a reasonable price (£210 paid). My use is software development, no games.
Pros:
* Sharp, vibrant, bright picture
* Wide viewing angles - not really necessary for my use for adds a feeling of quality.
* Good control over picture - lots of presets and customisation.
* Low blue light mode surprisingly useful, especially as it has multiple levels (I use it mainly to 'dull down' the picture later in the day)
* Good stand - quite a lot of variability in height and tilt, and feels more solid than I was expecting based on other reviews.
* Matt screen, which helps reduce glare (though perhaps doesn't have quite the 'wow' factor you get with glossier screens)
* No dead pixels
* Resolution feels right at this size. Worked out-of-the-box at full res with supplied HDMI cable. (DP and VGA cables also supplied)
* I can use it all day without getting eye fatigue.
* Built-in speakers weak but useful for home office use, especially as they work with the hdmi cable - no additional audio cable required.
* No issues with light bleed, uneven backlight etc.
Cons:
* Rear-mounted buttons are a bit fiddly to use.
* Doesn't look anything special (I don't mind the thick glossy bezel, but it's definitely not flashy or pretty)
* No USB hub. (I had this on a previous monitor, and it was quite useful in my home office setup)
