About this deal

This is due to the slow decay of the red KSF phosphors used for the backlight and is very commonly observed with strobe backlight modes on wide gamut models. The overshoot appeared with interlaced horizontal lines of alternating slightly lighter and darker version of the shade, both of which are brighter than the background as expected from bright overshoot trailing. There’s also some overshoot in places, mainly as a ‘halo’ trailing that’s a bit brighter than the background shade. If the manufacturer does not provide such information, the width is calculated from the diagonal and the aspect ratio.

There were some minor weaknesses for some ‘high contrast’ pixel transitions, but for the lower frame rate movie content in particular these were not distinct. These red elements are better blended by eye than they appear in pictures so don’t really jump out at you. The average static contrast with only brightness adjusted was 1332:1, comfortably exceeding the specified 1000:1.Note that these images are designed to show strobe crosstalk behaviour and don’t accurately show how distinct details on the main object appear. For ‘MBR = 20’ the strobe crosstalk is moderate but weaker than and distinct from the main object in these photos. Adjust grey levels for better picture detail and brighten dark areas or sink them back into blackness on the fly, without affecting the rest of the display. Forget graphical frills: this mode rewires the monitor in favor of raw response time, giving you the ultimate edge in a hair-trigger standoff.

Given the intended uses for the monitor, inter-unit variation and pleasing performance on our unit with OSD tweaking alone we won’t be using any ICC profiles in this review or including any measurements or graphs using them.

It can’t compensate for other interruptions to smooth game play, for example network latency or insufficient system memory. There was also ‘IPS glow’ to contend with, a haze emanating from the corners of the screen which eats away at darker shade detail and atmosphere. Quite a bit of DCI-P3 coverage is missing towards the red corner of the green to red edge, covering oranges and yellows for example. The Dial Point feature provides selectable custom crosshair options, helping gamers to play First-Person Shooter (FPS) games with more accurate and precise aiming. The monitor didn’t give a particularly atmospheric look here, even if its contrast was above average for the panel type.

Some may prefer to run at a lower refresh rate, particularly 120Hz, due to the somewhat fainter strobe crosstalk. The maximum here is rather bright and comfortably exceeds the specified 350 cd/m², but the minimum is rather high and will be too much for some users particularly in dimmer conditions. It should be noted that whilst glare handling characteristics are strong, bright environments can still ‘flood’ the image. Even at reduced refresh rates, such as 120Hz, there was moderate strobe crosstalk centrally or a bit below centre.The shifts observed are more readily apparent if sitting closer and less apparent if sitting further away.

Overshoot becomes more noticeable as the frame rate dips, but didn’t ever become extreme using our preferred ‘Medium’ setting.

Aside from for our ‘Test Settings’, where various adjustments were made, assume factory defaults were used.She appeared a bit too tanned or perhaps a little ‘sun kissed’, but this was fairly constrained oversaturation compared to what we sometimes see. That means that if the game is running between 48fps and 165fps, the monitor will adjust its refresh rate to match. And again, for transitions not shown here some more noticeable overshoot is introduced with the ‘Strong’ setting – so ‘Medium’ is our preference at 144Hz.

They were particularly faint at lower refresh rates, but still faintly visible upon close inspection.
