What owners praise

  • Surprisingly capable built-in MaxxAudio speakers
  • Convenient software-based screen controls
  • AMD FreeSync support for tear-free casual gaming

What to know first

  • Stand only supports tilt adjustments

  • High 4000:1 contrast ratio for deep blacks
  • Nearly bezel-less frame on three sides
