Review: Really good monitor for the price. - So far, the monitor has been really good and a big step up from previous dual-monitor 1080p setup. However, it does have some ghosting to it and the OSD is a bit difficult to navigate, but I still think it is a great deal regardless. Pros: -The display itself is fantastic, 1440p is extremely crisp and the brightness and colour is solid -144hz 1440p is super nice to work and game on, with low response time -This is my first ultrawide monitor and it is fantastic. I do miss the flexibility of dual screens a little bit, but ultrawide feels so much nicer for gaming and some workloads like having multiple documents open at once, that it feels hard to go back from this -The stand and adjustability is good, with lots of flexibility being able to go up/down a fair bit and left to right. -Adaptive sync and HDR are both also great additions and help prevent screen-tearing and HDR provides an even better viewing experience Cons: -Because it is a VA panel, there is some ghosting on it, specifically black smearing. This can kind of be fixed with the monitors Anti Motion Blur setting however, which is nice -The OSD is a bit hard to navigate, and would be made much easier if there was a joystick control like some other monitors. Overall, I think the monitor is a fantastic deal for the price. The display itself is fantastic and looks amazing. While the ghosting is there, the rest of the positives of the display more than make up for it. For the price, this is one of the best 1440p ultrawide monitors you can get and is amazing so far.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Big Screen, Bigger Value
*by P***N on 25 October 2025*

This monitor delivers excellent value for the price. It arrived securely packaged: an Amazon box enclosing the original MSI box. The build quality is solid and surprisingly heavy (in a good way), with a sturdy metal and plastic stand that feels premium. Setup was a breeze. It’s mostly plug-and-play, but I recommend downloading the correct drivers from MSI’s website to unlock the best color accuracy. One pleasant surprise was the RGB ring on the back; it adds a nice touch to the overall aesthetic. Just be aware that the base is quite large, so make sure you have enough desk space. The screen is bright enough to remain clear even next to a window with natural light pouring in. Once you bump the refresh rate up in Windows Display Settings (it defaults to 60Hz), everything feels incredibly smooth. And the HDR makes content that supports HDR look vibrant and immersive, with deep contrast and rich colors that really pop. Overall, this monitor is easy to set up, looks great, and performs even better. Whether you're gaming, working, or watching movies, it’s a fantastic choice.
