More of half of a TV and half a monitor

Strengths of the product
IPS & 4K UHD.
Large screen size great for multi-tasking.
Accurate color reproduction.
Lots of inputs; great if you have multiple devices such as a server, workstation computer, iPad, etc. you want to shuffle between.
Weaknesses of the product
Hurts your neck after many hours of computing from a desk; better suited for entertainment than a pure workstation.
Not much movement available; only tilt up/down (though you could get a monitor mount).
Additional Comments
Usually run 2-3 monitor setups for financial and graphic design work involving extensive multi-tasking.
Found this on sale for less than what I'd pay for 2-3 individual IPS Full HD monitors.
Great quality product but I find my neck hurts and eyes strained if working on it for very long periods of time.
I am constantly tilting my neck or darting my eyeballs towards all corners depending on where on the screen the content is.
Would make a great TV/4K IPS monitor hybrid though for entertainment or conferences/meetings.

Strengths of the product
- abundant inputs
- comes with a very useful remote
- sharp and crisp
- color accurate and factory calibrated (not for professional level editing though)
- the Picture in picture and split screen functionality is by far the best feature I've used on a monitor
- its 4K
Weaknesses of the product
- only 60hz refresh rate (but still, adequate for non-competitive gaming)
- limited maneuverability (only tilt)
- no HDR
- there's some shadow cast near the bezels but not really noticeable.
Additional Comments
All in all, I didn't regret impulse-buying this monitor with my wife. It was on sale and i made the right decision. We needed a TV-monitor hybrid that could offer the viewing pleasure of a TV with the color accuracy and low input lag of a monitor. We got the best of both worlds out of this monitor. Me and my wife used the split screen function so that she could watch her shows on the left and i could game on the right. And if the kids are around, we could split into 4 windows and we would have a gaming party ALL UNDER ONE MONITOR. This is really worth it for those wanting to have a Monitor and TV all-in-one.. i couldnt say it enough but a really great buy!
