    I have had the monitor for 1 week, I will update later.

    +Amazing HDR

    +Fantastic frame motion smoothness

    +Prestige and one of the best resale values as a Brand

    +Full G-Sync compatibility via the included HDMI cable, with even better colors than Display Port

    -I'm a bit disappointed with the viewing angles and the ease of brightness adjustment, especially compared to my older TN monitor (which is supposed to be inferior to IPS)
