These things look cool, but too bad it doesn't manage more than 60 Hz yet, maybe later. The color looks great and it's cheaper than a typical retail 1080p IPSs.
I like how some of the scenes are tilted, it feels very soothing.
Regarding the 290M 21:9 monitor: I know I'm the vocal minority (though I'm certainly not alone) here and you should all acknowledge that when considering this but I've had a bad experience with the Crossover monitors. I didn't find the color all that impressive at all; I'd call it decent-ish. I hope the case is improved like you said in the video because that bezel is HORRIBLE; it makes the edge of the screen ridiculously easy to crack. The backlight bleed was quite noticeable too.
I've had my LG 34UM57 for about a month now and I feel like the money was well spent. The UI, the color, Solid casing, the contrast, etc; 10/10. The couple built in presets are great too; it's like having an optional SweetFX preset in your monitor. If you can't spend the extra $300, I understand, but it could save you a lot of possible headache and it's a higher quality display. I've seen both displays and can confirm that this looks noticeably better; idk about $300 better but it's better. I think it's easier to recommend these monitors when you buy a good bit of them like Logan and Wendell do for their offices. So what if they have to send one or two out of twenty of them back, and I can understand how good of a deal it is to have that many ultra high res displays for productivity for that amount of money, but for the average consumer's main rig I think you should wait and spend a little more money on something mainstream.
Wendell Are you sure these are tn and not IPS 4k panels? I dont see any name brand monitors running 4k 28in ips? Infact the listings on ebay say that they are 1ms response which would indicate TN.
I realize that 32in one is, what im refering too is the 28" monitor. You said its an ips panel and from what Iv read it is not. Unless you know somthing I dont?
Seem to say its ahva/ahips. I didn't take apart the 28" one but if it's TN it's the best image quality TN panel I've ever seen ever. I wonder if there is a TN version of this monitor that slike the 289K Duplo Edition and I got the 289K Ultra or Final or something...
